Nice...

Nice...

I like to think so

Black velvet dungarees. Well, if you look closely they're actually teeny tiny corduroy, but we'll go with velvet. I LOVE them.

It's corduroy Rebelda, it's corduroy. You're fooling nobody, not even yourself I suspect . . .

I got a down-lined gilet the other day for going under jackets and it's amazing.

I'm not trying to fool anyone corduroy is great but unless you have a magnifying glass they sadly don't look it.

I always think cords are so 60s, and quite unflattering. Image of a sixties girl model with them on and a cord peak cap lounging against a Mini parked outside some stately home.

Just my opinion

cord are great, and you're an ignoramus.

just my opinion.

Luckily for me I don't wonder 'what would Oz think' when I get dressed in the morning.





Thank fuck eh.

From Connolly Books, last week. Caused a bit of consternation in the pub later, but fuck it.

 

[Red Cat]

I got some community clothing jeans, they're too long but I knew that. I think I like them, I'm not sure. My 7 year old says they make me look too grown up

Does that mean they look like mum jeans?

 

[killer b]

Aren't the women's jeans a fairly slim cut? You may have to post pics.

They're fairly slim, I don't know if I should've gone for an 8, they say take your normal size, I'm a 10. But I'm a short 10...

I haven't got a full length mirror to take a pic, may try later standing on a chair.

Oh urban fashionistas, find me a top to go with this skirt that isn't a tshirt. Size 16 please.

Ready, set, GO!!

eta Blimey that's a bit of big picture - soz!

 

[Fedayn]

Another vote for Corduroy here. The name is a derivation of ' ''cord du roi' ie 'cloth of kings' .
Have some lovely M&S Blue Harbour black cords and some Lois l boot cut black cords. Both splendid trousers

Speaking of corduroy, I coincidentally found a black cord Feraud jacket in the chazzer yesterday. Think I'll get some good wear out of it come spring.

(I had ambitions not to buy any clothes this year, an ambition I've so far failed dismally to achieve. So much so that I've not mentioned a few purchases to mrs b, and have hidden them in the wardrobe. )

I'd go for a black batwing jumper

I do not have much fashion sense though

I made similar plans, and proudly mentioned my success so far, at work yesterday. Where they promptly reminded me that I bought two jumpers last week.

Which i’d forgotten because I bought them in Sainsbury’s. Which obviously doesn’t count.


Also I’ve spent a ton on perfume. Displaced spending.

Gorgeous new earrings made by Shirl

Thanks BoatieBird

How do you get on with black corduroy? I can't wear it due to cat and dog hair but I think even if I didn't have cats and a dog I'd still manage to pick up loads of random fluff. It always looks good on other people but I wonder if they keep a felt roller in their handbag
Edit, just seen your post Fedayn. How do keep them black and fluffless?

 

[killer b]

I'm not sure, I think it's the first black corduroy thing I've owned in adulthood and it's still too chilly to wear it.

 

[Me76]

Just bought these two necklace in the Sugar and Vice sale. As it's our anniversary in 3 weeks time, OH has paid for them.

Means I can't wear them until 14 Feb

View attachment 159989

I finally got to open these yesterday and I didn't realise the lightening bolts were shiny. I love them even more now.

 

[Me76]

I also got this.



I bought it for a seaside wedding in the summer. It was only £15 and I was worried about it looking cheap. It doesn't really and has lovely silver threading in the stripes.

The wrap over on the cleavage is a bit dodgy and I might need to do some creative pinning, but with the right accessories I think it will work. And as it only cost £15, I have more to spend on them anyway.

I've a pair of black cord wide leg jeans...bought because I loved them...And had forgotten how everything sticks to cord.
I ended up washing them on their own and giving them 3 rinse cycles. That's not good is it...?
I then invested in one of these


It's great. All the lint/ fluff goes into the middle and I can't believe I'm enthusing about a lint remover.

I live in a dark house so don't realise how hairy I am till I get outside in daylight. I carry a roll of parcel tape in my car for emergency defluffing.

 

[Flipstick]

Ouch!

 

[May Kasahara]

New jeans and a top from TK Maxx. Please ignore the massive pile of bags at my feet

Not purchases, bit sorting out things in my late grandfather's flat has yielded various jewellery belonging to grandma, late aunt and others. I was able to claim aunt's Omega watch (needs repair) as my 21st birthday nice watch was broken beyond repair last year, so very pleased with that.

Not sure if it's clear in the photo, but one item is my great-great grandfather's masonic ring!
