M&S

I bought the classic mackintosh. Its beautifully well made but I look like Herr Flick of the Gestapo from. 'Allo Allo' in it. Good. I'm keeping it.

I had a small win on the lottery at the weekend and 'invested' in 4 prs M&S ankle boots: black suede, ochre suede (same style) navy and dk red (same) as they are selling out fast, plus H&M anthracite silk blouse, chiffon dress, 2 jumpers and a faux snakeskin belt bag.
Online shopping. ???

That sounds lovely - enjoy wearing them!

Gabriella, I'm envious of those ochre boots! Enjoy wearing them.

My boot collection is nearly as large as my scarf one.

Thanks SirChenjin and Marydoll
I will certainly enjoy wearing them.
One odd thing is that I now feel more comfy wearing block or cuban heeled boots (2.7mm) to flat boots, so my uGGs and others will happily go to my local charity shop.

In M&S yesterday and they had quite a few nice beauty items in their sale. I bought some as stocking fillers for DDs and DDiLs and GDs. Well worth the money.
I also tried on a trouser suit which was perfect...if I left the jacket open.
Looking at reviews I see kthers complaining at the overlong sleeves which they've had to take up by as much as 2 inches and the bagginess between badly fitted under arm area and side of boobs. Such a shame.
I rang M&S to tell them how disappointed I was at having to reject it and asked them to look atbtheir sizing and arm lengths across the board. Fewer frills and fewer choices. Who wants to trawl through 50 pairs of trousers each season and some garments are made of such unnecessarily heavy material, huge cuffs which dangle in food and shirring which degrades over time rendering a perfectly good (and expensive) dress or blouse, unwearable.
They do have some good plain shirts, white/blue/peach, @£15 and baby cord, press stud fastening shirts @£35 (too expensive in my book) I bought a white cotton one and cord in Bordeaux...plus a bag (I saw several which caught my eye and looked good for prezzies)
Much more choice online than most stores hold.

Jane10 would that be Herr Flick wearing the corset and stockings under the mackintosh?
