A turkey, absolute balls of stuffing or a right Christmas cracker? We'll let you decide. Please keep the discussion interesting, civilised and relevant - the Holiday Armadillo is lurking!

Game changer with the shirt 😍

jeffgoldblum · 26/01/2024 16:32

Get well soon @ArcaneWireless , I too have been struck down by lurgy and only just out the other side Flowers

jeffgoldblum · 26/01/2024 16:33

That picture with the shirt is giving me gone with the wind vibes !!!
Unless I'm still feverish? 🥵

Looks gorgeous with the shirt, but you really need a long torso and cinched in waist to photograph well in that look with everything focusing on the middle (although as I say, if you love it, wear it and screw the critics and the camera). I thought wearing it with a high neck T-shirt and funky platform sneakers might also be a fun look. Nobody take fashion advice from me, though!!

Thought I hadn’t seen ye Jeff. 😔 🌻

Thank you. I wouldn’t say I’m that unwell but lack of sleep, persistent coughing and throbbing lugs because of minging tubes isn’t my favourite thing.

I could fit a big steamer under that skirt….

Although a hostess trolley of pie would be just as nice…

my husband's home country in the Middle East

Yep. That’s where my cousin wore it. Beirut. But it could have been worn anywhere in the ME. Dressed up though. Not down.

mrsmingleton · 26/01/2024 16:49

@pinkmont surprised to see that on a catwalk - very standard Mother of the groom wear in the USA.

StrawberryJellyBelly · 26/01/2024 16:55

@mrsmingleton

It’s on the catwalk because it’s by Caroline Herrera. It’s not a copy of something made by CH and sold in a mother of the groom boutique type shop.

And I can’t believe I’ve just written that. 🙈

I found it quite hard to style, particularly what shoes to pair it with. It's gorgeous but I've only worn it twice. I think my body shape doesn't really suit it either. Oh well 😒.

Blimey. You have to do some work on a Friday afternoon and when you come back the batshit poster has been multiply deleted...

wildernesssw · 26/01/2024 17:28

Happily there are other threads with established pro-H&M posters enthusiastically agreeing with them! Life as we know it continues!

Mymilkshakebringsallthepapstomycar · 26/01/2024 17:30

Very odd though, blanket deleted since the Meet Me At The Lake post, even for innocuous stuff, but all previous posts standing. Some jiggery pokery behind the scenes, no doubt.

Exactly. We need a summary. I am lost.

On a different note, my puppy doesn’t like me looking at my phone. She’s more understanding if I read what’s on it to her. So I just explained what’s happening from scratch in a rudimentary way, in terms a very intelligent puppy could understand. She got stuck at “and he doesn’t talk to his dad.” Then she looked confused and trying to work out what anyone could possibly be doing on a trip where he would interact with someone that doesn’t like his dad and doesn’t want to be part of it all anymore.

Then she said it all sounds sort of like Succession. And she didn’t even watch the golden globes.

😂DDog is long past listening to me. She is currently snoozing on the sofa under the blanket she insists I tuck her under...!

Aye. To be honest and fair to that poster, I couldn’t see anything worth frilling about so I was surprised to see the big deleto.

If something is on the wonk behind the scenes, then fair play to them up in the gin palace (MNHQ) as they have kindly let the thread stand. I’ve seen whole threads go pooft for less 🤷🏽‍♀️

So thank you Gin🍸

It would be nice to know though…

wildernesssw · 26/01/2024 17:46

It's all a bit confused - which probably sums up their media strategy. They need to work out what they stand for and stick to it.

Pro-monarchy - embrace the privilege and stop complaining.

Pro-egality - ditch the titles

AliceOlive · 26/01/2024 17:48

I would think they have to be gravely lacking in curiosity to attend this event without wondering why they were invited.

AliceOlive · 26/01/2024 17:51

Alternatively, they have to be in a very strange place to understand why they were invited and go anyway.

I can’t use my phone if ddog is about alice

It is a bit ‘it is aaaaaaall about me so put down what you are holding as I need a lovie’ and although this is not the breed, it very much feels the same when lapdog status is claimed.

StrawberryJellyBelly · 26/01/2024 17:53

No. They would look nothing alike.

Yes exactly

Chouxpastryishard · 26/01/2024 17:55

Why was she so ridiculously overdressed also?

AliceOlive · 26/01/2024 17:59

I do find it extremely difficult to figure out how to dress from place to place. Even going from where I live now to my home state. I would have thought that outfit would be great for meeting a PM and attending a movie opening. and I think she got it right based on how his wife was dressed.
