Oh! the yellow troosers!

If you turn around fast, do they stay put I wonder?

I used to have a garment like this back in the day. I love that they have pocketses!

well Halloween parties are coming up sometime soon ?

treebee, yes! Pocketses! Yes! Many's the time when it's the pocketses of a garment that have been the ultimate decider for me. I remember a time when I was shopping for a dress with my mum. I was trying one on and found the pockets. "Oh, pockets!" I said. Mum turned to the shop assistant and said, "Sold!"

nfk,

I love them. I am not young, but I am slim and quirky

I think they are fun but probably not for me. I can see you in them, though, bags.

Getting flippin pop ups for the company since I opened the link. I'd never heard if them before.
Note to self, ask D how to use an add blocker !

Should they not have an internal hula hoop like real clown trousers? Note, being Scottish, I'd wear breeks rather than troosers.

I used to refer to Minibags's riding breeks, but the Dundonian grandfather of my first husband talked about his wedd'n troosers, which he was very proud to tell anyone who'd listen, still fitted him when he was a grandfather.

Yorkshire and Lancashire tykes like me use both words as well as breeches, trousers, trews and leggins (which last are not the same as leggings).

As a Sassenach I thought trews was only used for tartan trousers

I had some Sassenach trews when I was eleven and living in Lancs. They were not tartan. It's what the shops called them too. Does no-one else remember those? I think they might be called stirrup pants now. Or summat.

My first husband once said that he thought I must have been born in baggy breeks; it's what I lived in when I was a student. Later, after DD1 was born, I moved on to baggy dungarees because the bib part was very good for covering the evidence of a milky shirt.

So you see, bagginess and I have been lifelong companions

No way!

Oh you wicked, wicked person telling me about this site thatbags
The long cardi/coats they call "sweaters" are to die for, the "loose Autumn dresses" with cowl necks/hoods and tunics are my idea of heaven. And not expensive either! Alas at 5'2" I suspect most of the items would swamp me, but a person can dream......

The yellow are fun and funky and if you're that sort of person you could possibly get away with them but these!?!

Ha ha ha

Some amazing knitwear Daphne. I'm going to have to have a good look through this site. Has anyone bought from it? This is definitely the sort of clothing you need to try on to see what it looks like on. I'm very tempted.

Living in a small rural town, I'm not sure when I'd have the opportunity to wear this stuff, although it does cover a multitude of bulges and looks quite comfy.

It might be ok with wellies, and baler twine round the waist.

Ad appearing on my Facebook page too.

I loved those sweatery things too but I'd look dumpy in them.
Daphne I can't believe you're only 5'2"! You look tall on your photos!

I've never seen a photo, but I'd always imagined daphnedill as rather tall and willowy...

I am sure daphnedill is tall and willowy, but DaphneBroon is glamorous Maggie Broon's dumpy sister!!

Sorry - getting me daphnes mixed up!
