M&S new season

I have bought a lovely soft and fluffy BIG CARDI that I am looking forward to wearing, plus a sort of polo neck jumper with open sides like a poncho which will need a t shirt under it, but looks nice. Disappointed with their trousers though, cheap,fabrics, uninspiring colours and shapes.
I have had a couple of what they call shell tops (oversized t shirts) suitable for days like today when it doesn't know whether it is summer or Autumn.
Some very tempting jumpers and cardi/coatigans appearing on the Woolovers website though. Pity I am spent up!

These for instance!

It's still the same old story - put the autumn clothes they're advertising on anyone over 25 and bigger than a size 8 and you've got instant bag lady. They asked me to review a range of mixed packs of knickers. I told them they looked like something a 12 year old would wear. And why bother about the knickers? Why not ask people to review clothes that other people will actually see you wearing? I don't think they've got a clue what they're doing.

I liked these from M&S(for once, they look better on!!)

Daphne - how did you get to be a reviewer?

I'm not -I am a snapper up of things I like the look of even when it is very early in the season!
I shop, therefore I am

Sorry, but I think that jacket(?) is horrible!

Actually it does look nicer on (I hope) I bought it deliberately big and snuggly. Oh dear, should I be having second thoughts? DD liked it, and I usually trust her taste better try it on again

Oh dear, didn't realise that was the one you'd bought Daphne

I'm sure it does look better on...anyway, what do I know?

No! For all you know ana may have terrible taste in clothes. It's all a matter of personal taste.

Wear it and enjoy it!

Oh x posts.

I'm sure you have good taste in clothes ana
Oh blimey I wish I hadn't joined in this discussion

I know the feeling...

Sorry Daphne, it was Deedaa who said she had reviewed some knickers. Dee -how did you get to do that?

(See that clever change of subject?)

Not questioning your taste at all Ana!! It truly looks much better on and I hope I haven't made a mistake as I do like the Woolovers ones too, but can no longer justify them
I also like grey and white since my hair went white and can no longer wear the warmer shades I used to like.
Oh the way these manufacturers get us to part with our money......

For what it's worth, Daphne, I do like the jacket. I am not an early adopter, though, I'm more your clearance sale bargain hunter. So the litmus test will be whether I can buy it or not a few months hence. If I can, Ana will be the style guru, if not it'll be you!

Sorry, NotTooOld, I rather subverted your excellent change of subject there....

Maggie, don't worry about it. I'll try again. Has anyone spotted the horrible powder pink Per Una tunic yet? It has frills, tucks and droopy sleeves (I really hope no-one on here has actually bought it or I will be in trouble.)

My favourite garment notTooOd

You mean this one, Not? Words fail me!

If I was a size 8 or 10 it would probably look great!

What a dreadful pink blouse, thanks for showing it to us Jane but I do like the grey and cream sweater Daphne it would suit me a treat IMO.

I rarely buy anything from M and S, other than their £10 meals
