piratefairy

Just checked on the new site, they don't seem to have that section anymore..they used to do a lookbook from each season, which i loved as i could go through and tick off the ones i had :S
but they are definitely real lol..was going to bid on them myself but forgot so im glad you managed to snap them up :P

I've had them for years, think they might have been my first pair. A seller must have had loads left over cos there were tons listed at the time, all BIN for £25. Bargain!

piratefairy

oh bah! there was a pair on last week :S
*must not buy shoes*
*must not buy shoes* lol


is it just me or does this dress just look wrong :

i like it from the back, but thinking the cut away section shouldn't come quite so far round the front..

oh this is on the wishlist though..

Oh I don't like that at all. You'd need perfectly shaped boobs so as not to accidentally flash some when wearing it. Although perhaps with a contrasting vest underneath it might look quite cute.

I can't wait till payday. This month is probably the most skint I have ever been and not being able to buy anything is getting me down.

ETA - love the cardi though!

Oh that dress is insanity, failing to see how it could be flattering on anyone. Love the cardi though.

Alex, I know what you mean about being skint, but it is a wonderful feeling on payday when you can afford a treat, even if it's something small like a magazine or cup of tea with a friend

Hi again everyone

I'm up washed dressed and made it to uni hurrah!

Daisy - you obviously needed a nap, our bodies are good at telling us what we need but we often don't listen. I love napping, I had a little one yesterday between 6 and 6.30, just felt it come on so I curled up and had half hour, then Boyf woke me up because someone was calling at 6.45 and I needed to be awake for that. I'd have a little nap every day if I had time.

Alex - that daisy dress is sooo cute, not sure about the cricket jumper how would you wear it?

Tara I'm the same as you, my schuh zebra print soes sold for 4.99 and I'm gutted, I kept hoping the winner wouldn't pay for them so I could keep them! (even though I'll never wear them again)

So today I'm wearing a pair of coloured tights, my first ones ever, they're only grey but it's not black so that's a step forward! Along with a denim skirt, a grey and bacl stripped vest with a bib detail (IYKWIM), black cardi and black patent mary janes by jones the bootmaker via charity shop.

Pics will go on blog soon, in between studying (of course;))

totally agree about this month being mega skint :S one week to go till pay o'clock though!! woop..
in a bit of a crazy mood today..
oh i like this too :
http://www.topshop.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=0&viewAllFlag=&catalogId=19551&storeId=12556&categoryId=194514&parent_category_rn=42317&productId=1591566&langId=-1
but as i havent' yet worn my new floral cardigan, im not buying another one for a while..


Queen - I'm the same, sometimes I wish people won't pay, so that i don't have to sell some of the things i've listed and then had second thoughts about :S but it's always those ones that do pay, immediately.. :S

Queen_of_NO_MATTER_WHAT

PF - that dress is horrid, what a strange design

lostinrates

The dress is a shame,just backless it could have been deliciously sweet yet skinbearing.

piratefairy

im quite liking the backless idea within reason though..

this is nice, but looking at it in store the other day it looks really short..

and i really like this one,

only problem being that because it's been in stock in our tiny local store, every girl in town seems to now own / wear it..
