[May Kasahara]

I am going to a party/club next weekend and have nothing to wear. Have just spent 4 hours trolling round Kingston trying shit on, and have come away with a pair of jeans and a summery top oh, and a lingering sense of self-loathing and despair, obvs.

Ahem.

[wtfftw]

I tried to buy bras and they're all going back.

 

[gaijingirl]

BoatieBird - they arrived last night.. great timing!

 

[moose]

I finally cracked. I decided the beautiful high platform tattoo sandals would be too impractical, but I'd definitely get some wear out of these.

 

[RubyToogood]

I don't think I've quite got the hang of being unemployed yet... Went to TK Maxx in search of some cheap colourful plimsolls

And accidentally some Fly shoes while I was there.

 

[Impossible Girl]

I was doing my groceries shopping and... oh wait, there's a Primark on the way ! Sooooo... I finally got a new spring dress with matching cardigan and lovely shoes

 

[Rebelda]

I've won a prize for filling in a questionnaire about Breton shirts. I think it's going to be a Breton shirt. I'm excited

 

[Biddlybee]

*googles Breton shirt*

I don't appear to know much about anything

omg.. were the Fly shoes Brixton?.. it's now 3 or more years i've been lusting after the boots but just can't quite afford them. But those shoes are lovely too!

 

[Biddlybee]

Ah, stripy originally a fisherman's working shirt.

(James Dean and Audrey Hepburn look pretty good in them )

Yes, I don't know if there were any more, but there some nice Kickers too (though sadly not brown/camo ones, only silver).

A cushion. They sent me a fucking cushion

 

[Looby]

Oh, ffs. [emoji1]

I watched one of those awful demonstrations in a supermarket for a lint roller because I though the free gift was a mini roller. It was a micro fibre fucking towel. [emoji35]

I bought the product anyway because I'm a mug and spend about 20-30 quid a year on shit Primark lint rollers because of the hairy bastards I live with. I'm such a mug. [emoji20]

Is it stripy?

 

[Rebelda]

Is it stripy?

NO

I'll post a pic of it later, I'm upstairs (in bed ) and I flung it on the sofa in a huff

Thanks very much "Breton Shirt Company"

 

[fishfinger]

NO

That really is mean of them #boycottbretonshirts

Please do post a picture, then we can all have a collective "GRRR!" at it.

A pair of fairly boring cushion-sole black brogue boots to go with a charcoal-gray suit.

They're not going to win any style awards, but they're comfy, and the sole's grip means I'm less likely to go arse-over-tit than if I'm wearing my venerable Churchs.

I could do with some of them. I've got some nice Loake brogues but theyre not the most stable of shoes its gotta be said. I wobble a bit in them, especially if I'm having a pint after work .

Mr s would like these, he needs some work boots. Where are they from, VP?

They were too small, went back.

Also I realised I have about five years worth of wear left in my existing boot collection, so I don't need any more.

Ebay. Search for "Oaktrak Belper boots".

I love Loake and Church shoes (and boots!) but the soles are not exactly "grippy"! My dad reckoned that "back in the day" when most shoes were soled with leather, people would rub a bit of coarse sandpaper over the sole to raise the grain a bit and make them a bit more "clingy" on wet pavement and tarmac.

Brilliant, cheers.

That is SUCH a sad story!

I've scored the bottom of slippery heels to give them more grip many a time

 

[Fez909]

Got a new hoodie

And some new trainers

 

[JimW]

Got this anorak a couple of weeks back and I'm really chuffed with it:
