Fashionista Follies

[Double Trouble]

my wife dresses me - so perhaps indirectly I am fashionable

I dress Gav too. It's got to the point where I forbid him to go clothes shopping without me, otherwise he comes back with, what can only be described as a clowns outfit or a selection of T-Shirts from Chavs "R" Us.

I dress Gav too...

Would it not have been cheaper to get a dollie?

Probably, but a dolly can't mow the grass or decorate the hallway.

Are you a fashion slave?

I read that the new hip winter footwear in New York City is the Wellington!

They found that riding boots have slippy soles and the UGGs get wet.

(has anyone danced in riding boots?)

The biker boot is hip in London, apparently.

The wellies are probably the natural extention of the Crocs shoes http://www.betts.com.au/catalogue/ladies_crocs.aspx(not sure if you have them there...). I haven't bothered getting a pair - not really sure about the "breathability" of them for your feet. Besides... I really love my Birks!
No one in their right mind would wear their Ugg boots out in public in Sydney! (unless they're what we call "bogans" or "westies" http://www.bogan.com.au/definition/index.php)

I read that the white dress is the new black dress for this Christmas - with black shoes, bags and accessories.

Wondering whether to wear white to the Black and White Ball?

I love black because it is so slimming.

most white items seem to have a magnet in them and seem to attract stains you never even thought of!

I'v just put a fab White & Black dress on ebay by Coast with a fab black sash the starting bit is £0.99 don't need to clean at that price. Its perfect I must be mad. No comments.

[Little Monkey]

I hate fashion, and I absolutely detest shopping.

I can hardly ever find anything I like, and it's even more rare to find something that actually fits properly. If, by some miracle it actually fits and I like it, it's either a completely crazy price, or I take it home and discover it completely loses it's shape after the first wash.

I'm always trying to find new tops to wear for dancing, that are sexy and sparkly and NOT black. Unfortunately, most of the sexy, sparkly tops are either strapless or halterneck, which is completely out of the question, or they're a horrible material (or colour), or simply don't fit me.

And don't even get me started on trying to find nice shoes if you can't wear high heels.....

[Clueless]

You just need to practice Darhling

High heels (more than 2 and a half inches) are bad for the spine. The body is thrown forward. Backs, knees and calves suffer added stress.

Does anyone know anyone who has had their little toes amputated so that they can wear Manolo Blantiks?

UGG is an Australian company.

The new Bogans are going on sale today at the new UGG shop at Westfield.

Extra security guards have been employed in case of a mad rush.

Has anyone been to the new Westfield Shopping Centre at Shepherd's Bush?



.....meanwhile, things are not going well on Oxford Street.

Large stores there are opening thier doors at 7am tomorrow and offereing champagne and presents to lure customers inside.

[Astro]

In the USA they have designed shoes with heels for toddlers.

Meanwhile...........for fashionistas who frequent pubs and clubs in Torquay, Devon.
Police will give you a free pair of flip flops if you are drunkenly walking home at night in high heels or bare foot. This is so you don't injure yourself.

I bought one of those from ebay too - lovely dress ... it fit beautifully around the waist and hips (usually the problem areas) but couldn't fit the puppies in.

Whilst Mr Darcy thought I was bursting out in a most exciting manner I employed my usual phrase of "just because it does up does not mean it fits!!!"

[Lost Leader]

.........Whilst Mr Darcy thought I was bursting out in a most exciting manner.......

Oh I say! This is all leaving me quite breathless and somewhat faint.....vapours, where are my vapours!
