I think it’s an optical illusion. Or they stopped growing and my body continued because they certainly are not now! :D

I’m glad your outfit was a winner, Duo!

Oh I had jeans with piping :love:
We are more or less the same age so I often get your references.

The coat is a keeper, the dress fits but then has excess material in weird places.

I'm taking my Anglea's out for a drink. I have 100 plasters on.

Did you have a boogie belt as well Marth?

Best of luck and may your plasters stay in place!

There’s nothing worse than uncomfy shoes :cry: I hope you survive the night!

Is the dress very long-waisted?

My cropped cardi isn’t so cropped on me :)) Thank goodness! Ignore the jeans. I desperately need new jeans!

Lovely, Emma.

I have no idea what a boogie belt is. :mrgreen:

ETA is long waisted which I don't mind but the back has too much material so it looks too big even though it's not. The hips are not right either.

A boogie belt was a sort of shiny fabric belt with a metal buckle. You usually wore it to match your piping on your jeans :mrgreen:

There really is.

I’m imagining the boogie belt like this:

Oh I’ve definitely owned belts like that. Never heard them called boogie belts though!

I think your jeans are lovely actually, emma! And the cardi looks great, I'm glad you decided to get black over red - good choice.

Marth, have you tried Compeed blister plasters? they're brilliant for providing instant relief when your shoes are rubbing they're made of kind of a thick gel material that you can apply straight over blisters/raw skin. they don't fall off easily. in fact, you mustn't take them off yourself, you have to wait for them to fall off by themselves when their work is do . they suck out fluid from blisters.)worth taking on long walks/ nights out

Great shoes Marth! They will be worth all the breaking in woes!

My mum took me shopping this weekend and let me pick an entire outfit. I did and have worn it all already, everything is so comfy!

I'm keeping this Next top that arrived yesterday and is a suitably cheery colour for a return of a bit of daylight!
