The reviews are amazing

Yeeessssss. Even me and my H cups. Manners LDN, very spendy though

I'm going to take a look anyway

I can't really afford it but..? With giant boobs? I'd bloody love the bardot top. How the hell do they not look like spaniels ears?

If by some form of black magic it works I am so in!

I DON'T KNOW BUT THEY DON'T! The vests are less supportive but honestly, it's witchcraft.

Manners does not need to be ironed btw. That's & other stories, the fuckers.

So these Manners things then, would they work in lieu of a sports bra ?

No. Not with my endowment anyway, can't answer for a smaller cup size.

Thought that would be too good to be true chuck but thanks for the info

This is probably the most supportive style, other than the t shirt shape tops and dresses. The halter necks are my fave though, backless is a novelty that hasn't worn off yet

I like the look of the jumpsuits: Tbang Jumpsuit in Black

Will it squeeze in as well as hold up?

 

[moody]

just popped into chazza on way to get some milk, found a peachy/pink ralph lauren cable knit v-neck and a virtually brand new pair of 511s, all for less than a score!

 

[moody]

just put in an offer for these.
used to have exact same pair, bought some 20 years ago from tk maxx but they've gone crazy prices now and this is the only pair I've seen since.
fingers crossed.




embroidery is top notch, on par with anything else I have

Some more braless wonders from Manners

And a Fred Perry skirt I really don't need it's white and I haven't found the right top for it yet so maybe it should go back. But it's sooooo lovely.

Sorry lovely I missed this. A bit. They're definitely smoothing iykwim, but they're not full on hold you in.

Yup, pictures or links please I'm not as interested in the skirt ( I'm sure it's divine !) as white makes all dirt in a twenty mile radius attach itself to me.

E2a I don't suppose any of those Manners things have pockets do they ? #clothingnirvana

 

[Rebelda]

They're not here yet, but I've got a fair few tops and dresses already. Easily Google-able , I think some of the loose dresses and skirts might have pockets but I don't have them.

A Craghoppers Nosilife insect-repellent shirt from the chazzer, but it's XL, so will wear it round the campsite.

Better than that though, a Craghoppers Nosilife insect-repellent shirt women's size 12 AND a pair of the Nosilife kecks too, all for under 40 notes on Vinted. I was getting ready to splash some serious cash on the Craghopper site when I suddenly remembered Vinted!

I remembered cos I bought an absolutely gorgeous orange FILA vest, beautifully cut, on Vinted a couple of weeks ago, ready for summer raves, and it was ridiculously cheap. My new fave clothes shop!

 

[sojourner]

Btw is there any kind of etiquette on buying from Vinted? Like, does everyone pay the asking price upfront or do you haggle? Cos I've just paid the asking price each time, cos it seems really reasonable.

I sell on it. I expect haggling but sensible so 20-30% to arrive at a final price of 10-20% off depending on margins. You're more likely to get discount on Vinted than eBay, Depop or Poshmark cos there's no fees for the seller. What I don't like is a persistent twat who keeps asking me for 50% the same top even though I've repeatedly declined it and not even bothered with a counter offer. Hiking wear does sell well.

I am so jealous of the stuff you wear. So much so that I specifically mentioned you a month back to Mrs St8 and hopped on here to show her some of yur stuff. I admire both your taste and your attitude

I'd look like a right cunt in most of your stuff mind. Part of the reason I'm jealous!

Ah nice one mate! Thank you Yeh, I couldn't believe my luck that I got both kecks AND shirt in my size too, from different sellers! It's honestly saved me about £150!

The clutch of dresses I bought recently are perfect other than the fact that they all need to be bloody ironed

Can you hang them in the shower overnight? (After you've had a shower that is...)
I do this with a few cotton and linen dresses. The wrinkles fall out overnight. You do have to have a hot shower tho...

Vinted sales are mixed mind. I've seen photos and videos and heard stories of some proper iffy packaging, cat litter bags and Subway sandwich wrappers complete with sauce to send clothing, items described as mint with stains all over them. No returns on Vinted you see but you can get right bargains.

 

[cesare]

Does anyone have any suggestions on where to sell some vintage* pieces?


*mostly 1997-2001 quite classic styles

I'm too lazy to Google

Full on Y2K is resurging so if you've any of that too, get it sold.

Depop is the hipster Shoreditch website so you might do okay there as it's "retro" but it's slow. Etsy is the knitted yoghurt, middle class craft fair price point website, great though for selling old band t-shirts at silly prices. If you've anything designer then Vestiaire. And the new kid on the block in the UK is Poshmark. Like eBay if eBay did things well. They have live auction shows amongst other things and despite the name, some real bargains to be had. Launched here a few weeks ago. If anyone wants a code for a fiver credit, drop me a message.
