TM and THAT dress

How about we tootle round to Next, purchase said dress and post pics of how we look in it??

OK. Do they make it in size jumbo?

Jane , I also laughed at your 'tightly encased' comment.

Anniebach even on holiday she is the PM and people in Italy would expect her to look reasonably smart. Bella figura doesn't seem to be quite her forte. She's welcome to leave her tights off but I wish she'd use some fake tan on those skinny white legs. Judgemental? Moi? Of course not

Holiday attire - I still feel 'Just leave the poor woman alone!'

Formal occasion / representing the country attire ... just woman to woman, I would have wanted to give her some kindly advice about the hat she wore at the Passchendaele Service. Was cross with myself for even thinking about it during what was a wonderfully fitting and moving broadcast, but it was so 'unfortunate' it bothered me!

Hasten to add - this still has no link to her competency (or otherwise!!!!!) as our P.M.

How about Angela Merkel's holiday attire then?

Did anyone see the pictures on itv news of Angela Merkel sitting on a chair lift yesterday? She looked to be really in the holiday spirit . No linen Dress that's for sure .

Good for her .

Good for her indeed Anniebach she didn't exactly look in the holiday mood though. Not surprising I suppose.

A side issue but I thought Theresa May looked just right at the Paschendaele memorial. She was wearing a noticeably nice hat (and I'm not a hat fan generally)

Did Angela have on one of her squillions of jackets. Does she own anything else?

That dress looks as if she forgot to put on her trousers! It would be fine on a beach but walking round an Italian city- no way. I can see all the elegant Italian women in their chic linen shift dresses, just the right length, with carefully draped scarves and great jewellery raising their eyebrows and shrugging disdainfully. Come on Theresa, Brexit demands you show them how stylish we Brits are.

Are the Mays and the Merkels going hiking together up a mountain?

Away from cameras and microphones.

This Brit isn't stylish ?

me neither!!

I can't do scarves either

If the Mays and the Merkels go hiking up a mountain together who will push who off first? (Or will the Mr Ms both do it?)

Angela looked a fright she has no fashion sense at all.

To be fair, Angela's holiday involved staggering up mountains, so she was hardly likely to be dolled up to the nines, was she!

Perhaps they will yodel to each other across the valley

As someone who has done a lot of mountain climbing , I never did it in a frock, heels,drapped scarf and jewellery

that could be me on a day out (apart from the hat, that is)
But I could be smiling!!
But never on a chair lift, I could have a look of sheer fright!

I just bought a pair of cream chinos today, a la Merkel!!

M&S sale.

Did you not Annieb ? ......I always did, and with perfect hair and make up too!

Angela Merkel is a bit like the Queen and sticks to a look which is practically a uniform and works for her. TM lets us know that she loves expensive clothes and shoes so we expect to look as if she's spending money on them.
