Christmas party dresses

Oooh lovely!!

This is my latest. I’m not wearing it. It’s the catalogue picture

Thanks

I rarely post unless I have something I feel is worth saying, and after reading this I'd like to say to you Galen that your dress is not only beautiful but it's a perfect shade ofor your colouring, and you look like a film star, and I'm being serious. Thank you for posting , it's brightened my day to see someone looking so beautiful and classy

I dropped some stuff off at the Age UK shop and had a quick nose round. Found a sheer blàck, shirt style blouse covered in silver embroidery. Worn as a jacket with black vest and trousers that's Christmas sorted - and it was a whole £4!

I saw some White Stuff at an outlet today but the price wasn't reduced! (no, I didn't buy anything.)

quite amazing Shirley. Good for you!

Reported. Good try but I couldn’t see me serving the turkey in it.

In a good, or a bad way?

This thread is a soap opera!

Thank you GabriellaG

Velvet? Primark? Where are my car keys...
Thanks goose1964

Have you got a pic of your dress, goose1964 ? Sounds like my sort of thing, but It’s pouring down here, so a trip to Primark is not on the cards!

I bought a mid thigh length emerald velvet dress from Primark . I think it looks OK but my son told me I was too old to wear it without tights. I'm actually going to wear it as a tunic with leggings and ankle boots

Thanks GabriellaG. It’ll be boots, or boot to be precise. I’m having a foot op on the 10th, so the left foot will be wearing a surgical sandal! But may put some tinsel on it.

Nicely festive Sophiesox
Ankle boots or shoes, that is the question.
I'd go for boots.

This is a link to the red tunic dress I bought from eBay because it looks fairly festive. It’s a dress length on me so I’ll probably wear it with black tights.

Thanks GabriellaG I'll take a look

As I said, I saw some nice Boden ones but they wouldn't fit me (ages 3, 4, 5 only) but they did have some for women at £80!

Marisota also in berry colourway.

It's a bit like being tbe Pied Piper (one of my favourite poems)
The topic morphs and everyone troops after the diversion.

I went to a huge M&S today and looked for dark blue velvet evening trousers. Apparently I can find some online because they didn't quite have any in the store.
Were they outside the store if not quite in I wondered to myself?

Keep up oldbatty ... I wasn’t being flippant - I just didn’t want to be perceived as such! It wasn’t about anybody’s dresses. I’d posted earlier about how topics can morph into something else. - it was actually about the use/perception of the word ‘meritocracy ‘!
No apology necessary in my opinion!

A bit harsh Bella I would certainly be seen dead in them, but not alive.
