Just wanted to say getting properly dressed yesterday was appreciated by DH, if not the puppies . He said I looked really great, so wearing the same this evening to meet a friend.

I will catch up on Monday...

Assuming you meant the dogs didn't appreciate your clothes, I'm sure DH appreciated your puppies.

Been away from here for a few days as my Nana passed away in the early hours of tuesday so been a bit up and down but have decided for the funeral I will be wearing my IC harsh leopard print boots as she loved animal print and would appreciate it.

really sorry to hear about your loss. I think it's a great idea to wear your leopard skin boots, I once went to a funeral where all the women had to wear brights and the men had to wear hawaiian shirts. I'm going to make everyone wear stilletto heels to my funeral.

Come on everyone what was the worst thing you had to wear as a child? I'm trying to think now!!!!!

I found a photo from when I was about 8, I was a real tomboy back then. I was rocking neon orange polyester shorts with a Lime green sports tee. I looked like a radioactive carrot.

I remember about that age I was into Wham:o at the time, I wore at Christmas a cerise knit skirt, with cerise shirt, black pretend leather elasticated tie, black belt around the shirt and matching cerise and black wham scarf, sporting nice bob with big bowly fringe:rotfl::rotfl:

I had royal blue chunky cords from Benetton that cost a fortune at the time. I remember outgrowing them but my mum still made me wear them as they were so expensive.

I also went through a brief goth stage, old style goth, none of this newfangled emo nonsense!

Who's old enough to have gone out in public wearing a fame/flashdance style outfit - oversized sweatshirt, legwarmers etc?

daisybella

No fame style here (though my Mum has confessed to it!)

I have no photos of me in leggings thankfully, but loads of dodgy photos in my teens. I am old enough to remember owning electric blue shiny leggings and wearing them with pink legwarmers!!! Oh disaster.

I had those black shoes with the bottle tops on the laces ala Bros and illuminous socks *the shaaaaame!* i owned a sweater shop jumper at more than one point in my childhood.....

then when I went through the grunge phase (at 17) it was all unwashed hair mens workshirts , tartan tights and 18 hole dm's......but thats kinda cool- well except for the unwashed hair...I even had the ultimate accessory a boyfriend with pink hair lol
