Respect my existence or expect my resistance
Something in red perhaps? Nice contrast to the blue/cream.So anyway, this skirt turned up today. I don't know what to wear with it apart from cream. Help?The spots are more cream/ivory than in the picture.

I celebrated turning 40 by buying these:
And why not? A bit 80s, but seeing as that's now retro it might just work.I have a hankering for dungarees.
But worn rolled up and with heels.

No, god, that'd look great, imo.
I can't wait until it's warm enough to wear my short dungarees again.
such and such
Scones then fucking.
For some reason even when I was 10 short dungarees looked silly on me. Now it's getting colder I need to remember who to put like, outfits together, instead of throwing on a dress and pair of sandals

I think they look silly on me too.
But I still love them.

If I was rude I would request pictures, so I'll just look at the ceiling instead.

You look adorable Yu!
You don't look stupid in them, IMHO they work with your proportions.I only have pictures of me wearing them when I'm actually looking stupid regardless of what I'm wearing.

If I wore them I'd look like a runaway pregnant teenager from 1992. Which maybe a look I could work towards

I will never wear dungarees. They are better for apple/athletic shapes ime.

I love that you're on a piece of gym equipment and smoking!
I used to have dungarees - I wore them with the top down skater style, or done up to paint in, I was a teenager, had a french crop and eyebrow piercing and it was the 90's.

Scones then fucking.
I would have been totally intimidated by you as a teenager zenie

Popped onto DP website to see if they had some cheap converse-style trainers, ended up accidentally buying them and two pairs of heels due to 20% off all shoes offer and free delivery if certain spend. Oops.
In my defence, i packed a month ago for moving house and it looks as though it will still be at least two weeks before we move and all my existing stuff is one of several vaguely-labelled sealed boxes.

Ooh, are they purple? I have the shiny purple and they are so ace, i wear them to all kinds of places as the lovely colour makes them smarter/funkier than standard DMs.

Denim skirt from Dotty P... also some dresses which I'll make sure I post on Friday frocks when I get around to wearing them!

They are. And I love them
Unfortunately, they do not love my feet. I wore them all day Friday and was practically crying with pain by the time I got home. My feet are actually bruised.
I may have to do an acclimitisation in stages.

Too skool for cool
I embarrassed myself badly enough with them last time around - ethnic weave short dungarees, black tights and DMs. Ah the follies of youth.

ooh, yes, a full day was almost certainly a step too far!
you need some chunky boot socks and definitely slowly building up the wearing time.
i tried to wear them for short periods where i wouldn't have to walk/stand much at first.
now they are my default footwear, in winter at least.
Not bothered either way - the main thing is that they grip without breakage. The ones I found also had the advantage of being 2 for 50p.

When I was at university, I used to wear a fellow student's cut-off dungarees all the time.

It always took me ages to break in a new pair of docs when I was younger but once they were, they were the most comfortable thing ever.
I remember Shelly's in Oxford CIrcus used to break them in a bit for you with a wooden spoon type thing. They would put it inside and rub and stretch at the backs. It wasn't perfect after but better then nothing.

first time i've spent on clothes in months and they're not for me. mr b needs his geek t-shirts restocking.
