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 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!

I've just had a look at the M&S website as I'm planning a shopping trip next week. Despite all the suggestions M&S have had from Gransnetters it really doesn't look as though the clothes have improved this season. There are some very strange looking tops in weird prints on offer. (I did a cut and paste on a strangely designed pale pink Per Una tunic affair but I can't seem to get it to paste on here}. Is there any hope for M&S?
