Skinny jeans and slouchy boots
Hi Folks,
First off a tip, for any of you who stuggle to get knee/slouchy boot to go around your calves, never mind around jeans Mark One (I know?! - I spent days hunting down a pair) have a fab pair or slouchy knee boots that go around my calves and over the jeans I had on.
However I really want a pair of greyish skinny jeans or even just jeans that would go under the boots. I found a pair in primark but they were really unflattering on the hips, a pair in international that had ugly pockets, but by that time all the shops were shut so I didn't get a look anywhere else....!
Any tips? (I.m a 12-14 if that helps?)

Answer:
Topshop and River Island have some great greyish skinny jeans - but you are going to be looking at about £35-40.
The Topshop ones are in a style called "Baxter" and really lovely, I have them - the River Island ones are almost identical, but are a little cheaper (by about £3 or something!)
Hope that helps! :)

Does anyone want to 'swap' I have a pair of black skinnies jeans (not dye faded) it is proper black - tags on pm me

Benetton skinny tie belts
Hi
In today's Sunday Express magazine I've seen some skinny tie belts that I rather quite like. It shows a picture of a stripey one a spotty one says they come in a variety of funky patterns colour combinations.
Trouble is, my nearest Benetton is a 40 minute drive away, just wondered if anyone had seen them?
I s'pose I could call me nearest branch ask if they stock them in which colours.
Ok, so I've answered my own question really, sorry to have troubled you! :lol:

Picture question
How do you guys put images into your posts that come from a website?
I can add pictures from my camera - but the only way I can post a picture from a website is by posting the link.
Anyone out there that can help me as it is driving me mad!!!
Answer:
If you're in Firefox, right-click on the picture and select "Copy Image Location".
In Internet Explorer, right-click and select "Properties", then highlight the URL next to the "Address" bit and copy it.
Then when posting, click the "IMG" button and paste the URL into the window that comes up.
HTH! :)

Re-stretching shrunk woolens?

Re-stretching shrunk woolens?
Very annoyed right now as my well-meaning mother has washed my angora scarf and shrunk it to about half the size:mad:
Any ideas on how I can maybe stretch it a little and bring it back to a normal size? Right now I can't even tie it around my neck without it looking stupidly short:(

Answer:
Once wool is shrunk, that's it. Unfortunately.
Answer:
This wont help you- but I'm 99% sure you can't stretch it if it's shrunk in the wash.. :(
Answer:
Oh dear:(
Very annoyed as it was a fairly expensive buy for me at 15pounds and have also gone and lost the matching gloves!

Answer:
Mr Puddy is famous for shrinking my woollens - they end up so small even the cat couldn't fit into them!
