Silaqui, I don't have this pair or any of the flick flacks, but I know alex does so she'll probably be better to let you know re: sizing..

Silaqui

Thanks PirateFairy, I'll wait for Alex then xx

Alexnikov

Ooh I have that exact pair - I paid full price for them though

That style is one of the few that seems to come up as standard for me. I'm a 6 or 7 in IC's depending on style but I got the 6 in that style and they're quite roomy.

Morning, for whatever reason I decided killing two birds with one stone and booking myself in for doctors and dentist this morning was a great idea!
Glutton for punishment I am!

Miserable day outside, too wet for planned maxi skirt so have resorted to:

Black floral harems: Matalan
Plain black boy fit tee: Uniqlo
Grey thick knit cardi: Matalan
Stompy boots: New Look

tiptoes in....

you gals don't really want to know I'm wearing a tracksuit layered over pys with a huge black cardi and a scarf ATM...but I did want to point out that there are some really pretty grey thermals with purple flowers on them in tesco ATM. I've bought some because they are so much nicer than the white OAP sort, and the long johns perfect for under long dresses or skirts.

piratefairy

thanks, lost, that may be something to bear in mind

daisy - at least when y ou have done them both today, they're both out the way for the forseeable

alex, it's not so bad paying full price for something when you've worn it, the most annoying thing is when you see something you bought and havent' worn yet go down in the sale :S but as you've worn your flick flacks, shouldn't feel too bad

i defintely have a cold but i am being totally brave today..
i'm wearing:
purple bow detail sheer top, primark
dark green cardigan with dog print, laura ashley sale via some long-distance shopping
grey trousers, primark yrs ago..
purple velvet bow high heels, new look

with: dark green coat, next (gift yrs ago)
faux fur mittens, new look
chunky green knitted scarf, peacocks (?)

so far two ppl at work have mentioned the fact im wearing trousers :S i'm not sure whether i like them or not..

Alexnikov

Yup, also I bought them from the store so couldn't have returned them now anyway!

Trousers eh? Very bold of you

I'm being brave/misguided today...

White vest & oversized grey slouchy jumper - DP
Dark grey mini - Warehouse
Black tights
Grey knee high socks with black polka dots - Primark
Black wooden heeled triple strapped mary janes - Next via charity shop
And some silver jewellery.

Feel a bit like an overgrown schoolgirl - I quite like it but I'm a tad worried I look a bit fancy dressish.
