It might look shit on me tbh but I have been lusting after a cape for ages and I like it so fuck it

I bet it doesn't - I could see it looking amazing on you! It's a gorgeous cape.

It looks ace Kitty And it's reminded me I've got all the bits cut out for a cape upstairs and I must get my shit together to make it

It doesn't actually look as good on as I thought and I'm not sure if I'd have been better getting a medium or if that'd be even more unflattering. :/

When will it be cold enough to wear the cape...?

I think it looks great!

Would a medium be smaller or bigger?
I don't think you want it smaller personally. That style is supposed to be a bit baggy huh?

Love the loafers and I was just this minute saving that dress for later. [emoji1]

I love it because it's not itchy polyester like lots of lace-trimmed dresses.

Medium would be a size up. I usually end up with clothes that are too big because I think I'm bigger than I actually am but I probably would've been ok with this. It was the last one in that size though so I don't want to go to the hassle of exchanging it only to decide that I preferred the small but not be able to change it back.

I think it looks just right on you personally.

Have you tried it with a winter jumper underneath? Personally I nearly always size up with coats.

That's a brilliant pattern and (with the risk of making you hate me) quite Christmassy

Love the DM loafers.
They are much smarter looking than any DMs I have seen before.
I still really want the chunky soled, Mary Jane type I had when I was about 14

I have some original English-made cherry red DM loafers from the 80s, and these are very similar, except made on a bigger last, and unlikely to take 6 weeks to break in
They still do some T-bar ones that I had when I was younger, that I fancy getting again.

Oh, and this:
CARPE DMs

Ooo where did you get this from iona ?

 

[sojourner]

I just whazzed round Boots chucking stuff in me basket. Got to the till. Kerching - £70! Seventy fucking quid!! I did this then had to go through the humiliating experience of getting loads taken off the bill in front of a big queue

I have ordered some nail varnish from this place
About

It's natural and peels off. I've ordered the set in the pic, the red and blue twin set and a deeper red colour. Really looking forward to trying it.

So got these today. First impressions are great. Goes on really easily and smoothly and peels off easily, especially with more than one coat. Will report back how long it lasts!!

 

[moose]

I can't use that stuff - the temptation to peel it off is irresistible.

 

[danski]

It arrived, it fits!
Jesus fucking wept though, original price tag was 130 quid ffs

Oh god yes I can imagine

i do this everytime i go round superdrug - pop makeup in without remembering that it's 10-15 quid per item

 

[Me76]

So the edge of the nail varnish didn't last that well with typing today but I did a little top up and it covered up really well. I'm going to take the pot with me tomorrow for touch ups which will be easy as it doesn't smell and dried really quickly.

Is this the natural stuff? Good because you don't need remover? Looks really nice, almost like shellac.

Some burgundy (or maroon? I'm not sure. somewhere around there) pin cord chinos.

It is. It's water based so your nails breathe as well as not needing to use remover. It is really shiney!
