    Ooh I love the fabric. I'm just not 100% sold on the shape of it.

    Morning ladies!

    Vicki - I have a love for hair extensions, when my hair was shorter I always wore clip in ones to get my hair to the length I liked. Sallys is a really good place for hair extensions and other hair products, would definately recommend it!

    Almo - Tim Tams sound amazing!

    Oufit for today is

    Loose fit black dress, H&M
    Black and white striped cardigan, Primark
    Silver flip flops, New Look

    almo, i don't think it's something i would wear myself, but i think with the loose sleeve shape, it would look great over a simple sleeveless shift dress as a summer evening jacket :)

    I know. The draw for me is the fabric but I'm really bad at buying things because I think they look nice rather than because they suit me. And PF I think so too, but sadly I think it would look nice on someone rather more elegant than me! Oh well!

    Moonbabe just say the word and I'll post you some.

    Hey lovely ladies

    Just wondering if I could join you. Read this thread daily but have never posted on it. Suppose I should start with todays outfit. Not that its very exciting as Im working and had to leave the house at 6am :mad:

    Ok today we have.....

    Denim dress (£8 in Tesco a few weeks ago)
    Black vest top under dress
    Fushia cardigan (got no idea where its from,remember cutting the label off, was stitched on with itchy stuff!)
    Black Leggings (Primark)
    Black Pumps (Primark)

    Definately not very exciting!!
    Its hard to wait around for that something you know may never happen,but its harder to give up when you know its everything you ever wanted.........


    People tell me Im going the wrong way..............when its simply a way of my own!

    Hi Linz :) Your outfit sounds lovely to me.

    I'm waging war on labels at the moment and have been chopping them all out, especially with Primark stuff as their labels are stupidly large!

    Yes do join in Linz :)

    on the labels thing, why is it that places decide to put them into the sheer layer of an item, raher than the lining? Meaning unless you want to show everyone where your dress is from, you HAVE to cut out the tag..
    i've just sold a monsoon dress like that, on ebay..the tag in the back of the neck has been cut out by mum when she wore it, but there is still one inside the lining, i'm hoping it won't be a problem for the winner, it does say 'monsoon' in the inside washing tag..

    This is SO true. I have a gorgeous dress from one of the collections at Topshop and it has a sheer bit over the shoulders/upper back - guess where the label is?! So annoying.

    Sorry for the constant posting, I'm a football widow at the moment!

    Why do shops pick the itchiest material and thread for their labels?!
