Peacock's coat in Look Magazine
On page 14 the red coat which is like the Gucci one, has anyone seen it anywhere in London yet? I am desperate for a coat like this! :)
Answer:
Which Gucci coat is that? I don't remember seeing any red coats last time I had a nose around Peacocks a couple of days ago, but I'll keep an eye out for you :hmmm:
Answer:
omg that stuff in looks from peacocks is amazing
i so want the black cardi! i called up the head office and they said that the stuff can take up to 2 months to get into the shops!!!!! but she also said that most of there autumn/winter stuff should be in shops in sept
its a complete bummer that the closest one to me is about 25 mins away and so not handy for browing
xx
Answer:
Thanks Casa, its a copy of this coat:

BB: The oterh stuff is gorgeous isn't it! Even the pleather skirt is nice! I hope the coat will be in asap, I really want to see what it looks like on :D
Answer:
Ooh I like that coat!! I'm a bit :cmdunno: about Peacocks though I've never seen anything nice in there ever! But I might be willing to give it another try now!
wrap dresses arghh!!
NO.2. ask :
wrap dresses arghh!!
Well I love the fabric and patterns of loads of wrap dresses but when I try them on I look deformed!! I either end up with a 4 boob effect, or I end up with one boob up and one boob down!! Can anyone actually wear these dresses? Or am I just a freak?
The only other dresses I can find have a really low waist which on me looks terrible. Anyone seen any dresses with the waistline is where it should be?
Answer:
I find that they all are really clingly round the waist/hip area and end up showing people lumps and bumps that really shouldn't be there.
As for the top half, when I have tried them on the only way I can see them working for me is to wear a vest top underneath so that the spit can go low and not pull or interfer (if you get my drift) with my boobs.
I found a lovely green and black patterend one in Etam (normally I hate this shop so was v. surpised) where the material was quite heavy and hung well, the shop has since closed down where I am so I am gutted I didn't buy it then.
Answer:
I didn't think about wearing a vest underneath, that may be worth trying, thanks.
Cheap dark brown boots needed!
NO.3. ask :
Cheap dark brown boots needed!
Don't really want to spend a lot on a pair of boots, with summer (hopefully) approaching!!! - £40 max, although cheaper would be better. Just looking for a pair of dark brown ankle or knee length boots, preferably suedey material, but leather's ok - just to wear with jeans. Don't want a really high heel, but would ideally like a stiletto type heel - want them to be comfortable too!
There's a lot of lighter coloured ones around but I've got a pair of these and they are filthy!
Thought Next might have some but just looked on the website and no luck.
Any ideas girlies? Cheers! :)
Answer:
Hi Netti - sorry its not more inspiring but what about ebay?
Answer:
Faith have a sale on starting today, maybe check there ? They'll be selling off all the winter boots in time for Summer won't they.
Answer:
Thanks - will try Faith - will probably just have a general search next time I go shopping!
Answer:

What kind of bag do you take when you go out at night?
NO.4. ask :
What kind of bag do you take when you go out at night?
What sort of bag do you carry (if any) when you go out to bars or clubs?
Feel free to post pics! ;)
Answer:
I haven't been clubbing for years but tend to just use whatever it is here i'm using at the time to go down the pub with.
I've got a couple of small fendi bags which are good for going out with, but TBH I hardly use them.
This week i've been to quite a few bars a club in HK and I just used my small-medium gucci messenger bag, which is my holiday bag anyway... it carries my keys, phone, purse and digital camera and has been surprisingly excellent... I boogied away all night the other night hands free and without worrying about my here once.
Answer:
I have a few clutch bags that I occasionally take out. This is one of my favourites
I must admit though, usually I see what bags my friends are taking out and put my stuff in theirs! If I take my Gina bag out, I worry the whole time that I'm going to loose it, or it will get stolen, or someone will spill drink on it.
Answer:
I have loads of clutch bags I take out with me. Having computer probs at the moment so can't post any pics, but will do when I can!
Answer:
Yes i use mostly clutch bags too. I have to take something with me! ;)
What fashion advice do you follow?
NO.5. ask :
What fashion advice do you follow?
- Don't wear bags with metal chain straps (i.e. Chanel) on bare skin in the summer
- Carry a bag that actually holds the items I need so I don't have to buy Chapstick on the way to work each day.
- Buy a bag that zips close so that my stuff doesn't fall all over the car while I'm driving.
- Buy tops that are long enough to wear with my low-rise pants so I don't flash anyone during a meeting at work.
- Don't spend too much money on white tops or pants... they always gets stained quickly.
- Always try to buy the jacket that matches the pant or skirt I'm buying... invariably, I end up needing a suit for work and have to scrounge to find a jacket that matches the pant or skirt.
- Buy bras in various styles to wear with different tops (i.e. strapless, racerback, plunging neckline)
- Stop buying clothes that will only fit when I lose weight.
- Buy colorful sexy underwear. It brightens my day.
- Don't wear stilettos when I know I'll be on my feet most of the day.
- Keep a camisole or tee in my car in the event that my coffee spills on my top while I'm drinking and driving to work.
That's all I can think of for now ;)
Answer:
I can't really think of much for now but:
- Never wear a bra that's darker than the top you're wearing.
- Never wear things that are overdone (that'll be ponchos, cowboy boots, etc.)
- Never wear big logos, like the logo-covered bags by Louis Vuitton and Dior, or tops with Nike or Reebok all across the front in huge letters.
I think that's about all I can think of. I don't have many rules really, just a few basics.
Answer:
Not many but basically I live by the maxim:
If Colleen McLoughlin wears it, I shouldn't
;)
Answer:
- Beware of vpl's, sounds obvious but they can still be seen around
- Don't wear bulge inducing tops that are so tight you end up with 4 breasts
- Avoid horizontal stripes if not slim
- er, don't wear leggings and white stilettoes hehe
I'm sure I'll think of some more
Answer:
Oh yeh - don't do low-cut tops and miniskirts together, and wear heels with trousers and flats with miniskirts, unless you really have to wear heels, in which case choose round-toes.
