Sep. 1st, 2011 08:17 pmI may, possibly, have introduced the girls to the concept of buying clothes from Next insted of New Look. You know, given how shit New Look has become in the last few years, and how their jeans sizing is on crack and all.
This may have resulted in a scary amount of shopping.
This may or may not have included things I bought myself that I probably shouldn't have done, but... well, there's only so long you can cycle through the same 3 pairs of trousers before they start disintegrating to holes at the crotch. (And not in a fun way, I might add. More an inner thigh, friction-ey kind of way.)
Anyway, the pair I got from Next in the sales the christmas before last have survived really well, and now they no longer stop at anorexic twiglet sizes (Oh, hello market forces) I've had some really nice things from there lately.
Plus they have proper flares, and a half-decent bootcut, and I absolutely needed them both.
Honest.
I also wound up replacing pretty much the entire contents of my knicker drawer. But that's been on the cards for a while, it's getting to the point where even I'M ashamed to have to look at them, I'd be mortified if I had to inflict their dismal visage upon anyone else.
(Not that anyone else is clamoring to look at my pants, but you know what I mean. One lives in hope. Pointless, futile hope...)
Well that was a depressing thought.
Moving swiftly on-
Oh look! Here's James Blunt riding Phill Jupitus like a pony!
