best place to buy luggage
looking to buy a wheelie bag big enough for a weekend bag or actually a bit bigger as i tend to overpack, not looking to spend a lot about 20 -30 pounds if possible. Any suggestions? Am in central/west end London.
Answer:
If you have a TK Maxx near you I would try there... they usually have some really nice bits of luggage for not too much £££
Answer:
Yup, TKMaxx is where I was thinking. Or if you're not bothered about 'named' luggage I'd suggest somewhere like Matalan for just your run of the mill, decently priced babies.
Answer:
Thanks for suggestions. I tried TK Max in Hammersmith yesterday but they didn't have a great selection. I might try the one in Clapham. Don't think there is a Matalan near me unfortunatley.

1 Attachment(s) As much as I would love a Chloe Paddington bag my bank balance just cannot accomodate one :mad:
I am therefore trying to find another bag to fill that here shaped hole in my life. i found one that I quite like but just wondered what everyones thoughts on it are.
Thanks in advance
Answer:
I do like it, but I don't like the material. I think it's because the leather looks quite shiney in the picture..
Have you seen it IRL?
Answer:
Not seen it in real life as yet, will have to wait until the weekend before I can organise a visit ! However, my thoughts were the same as yours it does look a little shiny !
Why cant I just win the lottery and then i can have the exact bag that I want ???
p.s I must admit that my tastes have started to become more and more expensive since I started using this forum - you people have alot to answer for ! :)
Answer:
Think I saw that in a mag - is it Fiorelli? I didn't like the coloured circle thing in the centre but then I'm funny about things like that. The shape's quite interesting but, as Ms DKM said, the leather does look a bit too shiny. Don't think it did in the magazine advert though so maybe it's just that pic.
Answer:
Yep, it is Fiorelli. I think I really need to see it IRL before making a decision - this could just be a bad picture
Boots grrrrrr!

Boots grrrrrr!
1 Attachment(s) Hey ladies. I'm having a moment about these boots from Topshop. I had a quick look at them on Saturday (after buying them online like a fool :banghead: ) and they look very big! The width at the top of the boot looks huge and they look way too high. Anyone else got these boots and can you please reassure me their not going to look as terrible as I imagine!
Answer:
Sorry, mine came this morning and they were too big.... too wide around the calves and too high up, they were almost touching my knee cap, they've gone back.
Sorry :(
Answer:
I have them, but then I do have quite wide calves unfortunately, and they do come up quite high. I'm 5'7" btw, but I really like them, and they do go quite slouchy.
There is a pic of them on my blog here
Answer:
They look fab on you, I'm only 5'5" and I was just a walking pair of boots in them, no body, just boots!
Answer:
I think it is just the tree trunk legs TBH! They are a bit loose, but not like waders or anything!
My calf is about 16-17" inches around the widest part if that helps

Help! Top ideas needed!
I have to go to a wedding on Saturday and I don't have a clue what top to wear. I've recently bought a gorgeous skirt from Dorothy Perkins, I can't find a pic but it's floor length, turquoise with maroon paisley-type swirls all over it and silver sequins around the bottom. I've got some maroon wedges that would go perfectly with it but I don't want to fall back on the vest-top option, I'd quite like to go for something a bit different but am in desperate need of some inspiration.
I'm 14 weeks pg so starting to look a bit chubby, currently a size 14 (but growing!) so nothing too clingy or OTT as the skirt is quite dramatic in itself.
Help!!
Answer:
My first thought was a vest top! I definitely think you need something plain with it if it's a fussy skirt.
How about a plain t-shirt, and a maroon coloured shrug? Or even a plain vest with sequins on the shoulders or something, just to make it a bit more interesting?
Congratulations on your pregnancy by the way!! :)
Answer:
Hiya
Yea i would agree with the above, as the skirt sounds lovley, they do a vest top in oasis with sequins on the shoulders its about £20 i think, and the straps are thick so you can wear a bra with it, or why not try a vest top with a lace trim? theres loads of them about at the moment and a bit dressier than a normal vest top
Hope this helps
Luv Vicky xx
Answer:
Yeah I think go for a plain vest yop too. Maybe white if it would go. I'm sure you will look great!
Answer:
Ooooh, I've just had a thought!
How about a white vest top, with a plain maroon wrap top over? Either a jumper style one, or a jersey 'top' style? The wrap will be really flattering to your baby bump too!
