1 black knitted miniskirt (New Look)
1 black lacey pencil skirt (New Look)
3 lovely dresses
- 2 from M. Butterfly - one was navy with see-through sleeves, buttons up the top half and with a small print of hats on it. second was kinda beige and sleeveless with a v.neck and black ruffles at the bottom. 3rd was from Phase Eight and is beautiful and purple and drapey.
3 t-shirt tops (H&M) - I black with a plunging v neck, 1 white with little ruffle sleeves and 1 plain and grey
1 long navy blue cardi thing from Wallis

and today I knitted myself a woolly hat cos the last one I bought before crimbo I lost within 24 hours!
 
you know the slightly floral black/blue/green/pink dotty p dress a few pages ago? ive ordered that in two different sizes to be delivered tomorrow - was gonna wear it out for NYE but now my plans have fallen on their arse

oh well - will probably look silly anyway :D
 
I haven't bought very much, a couple of jumpers from Scottish company Ness:

Like the cape and WANT the mittens. Where from please?

Yeah - I have to say I DO like the cape, tbf :D - it's just I won't have much opportunity to wear it, prob, but ONE DAY I will say 'If ONLY I had a fluffy green cape, to finish off this outfit! :( ' and then I will remember that, in fact, I DO! :cool: And it was only a tenner reduced from £32 ( :rolleyes: ) so I had to buy it for that reason alone. They're from River Island, btw, quim - the mittens are only something like £3 now :cool: (although delivery is £4 if they don't have em in the shops :hmm: ) - they had other colours, too - but green = :cool: ....aaaaaand NO MORE LOST GLOVES! :mad: :cool:
 
Are these disgusting, or not? :hmm: :confused:

I'm not even too fussed about the studs (although I wouldn't normally go for that :hmm: ) - but it's the stitching that makes me shudder a bit - they look a bit artsy/crafty, iykwim? :( :hmm: :D

I like the buckle and the sole and the fact that they're knee length - and they're reduced from £160 :eek: to what will be £36 - but so I might just be going for them cos they seem like a bargain :facepalm: :D so I'm going to go and pick the kids up in that London and wait and see how badly you lot have slagged them off by the time I get back.... :cool: :D

It has/they have arrived and on me it does look silly sadly!

Its a really nice dress - good shape, well structured, feels comfy on but the style and shape accentuate my worse bits (ginormous arse and belly :D). I kind of knew it wouldn't suit, its quite fitted and that is out of my comfort zone. Twas worth a punt though.
 
I love the cape & mittens Sheo...they made me go & look on the RI site and spend £42 though I didn't buy the cape or the mittens. I did buy a leopard print beret with a pom pom, a turquoise jumper, a chevron striped skirt, lace knee socks, a green pom pom cape and a striped sweat jumper.

Also bought burgandy wedge boots from Office. I will try and post pictures *I do try*....I'm now using google chrome...so how do I do it please?.....:)....I could even be posting images by the end of 2011.

I don't like the maccasin/ loaferish stitching, not fussed on the studs either but I do like the colour and the buckle!

big arses are teh awesome :) any chance of finding sucky-in pants to make you less self-conscious about your belly? i have a couple of dresses that accentuate my little pot and i find those pants or control top tights sorts it out enough that i'm happy to wear them :)
 
I do have some of those but theyre quite uncomfortable and I'm not convinced they do anything helpful - I just end up with a hard, squashed belly and the leg bits on the one I have have a tendancy to roll up :D Control top tights might be a better option...might venture out a bit later and see what I can find.
 
Now i'm a large girl (my dress is a 20) i have a big old belly and i was suprised at how flattering that dress is.......it's a tad tulip shaped.......in fact if it wasn't for my knockers i would have gone down a size.....as it is i might take the sides in a bit on the skirt area.......
