Skinnies that dont completely lose their shape
I've got some NL skinnies which have held their shape so far (though I've only worn them a few times), but I also have a black pair and a grey pair from Next. I wore these for literally one day before they went all baggy around the thighs and looked so crap I basically cant wear them anymore (I bought a size down in an attempt to avoid that, too!) :mad:
I need to fork out for black and grey replacements now and I havent seen them in NL so I need to shop elsewhere. Thing is I've heard TS Baxters go really baggy too? Does anyone have a pair of skinny jeans that have held their shape well?
Answer:
Yup, my Earnest Sewn Deccas don't lose shape at all. They are still soft, flattering and extremely comfortable. They normally retail at £180 but Yoox have them at £80 right now.
Answer:
i get a bit of knee bagging with the deccas but the gym might be to blame :lol: my sassbide misfits haven't lost their shape at all, stretched out a bit at the top but not on the legs.
Answer:
Loony what does the sizing equate too? *doofus alert* They have the most gorgeous dark straight legs:heartpop: Also how are they for muffin effect...i get this with all my jeans:head: (yes i know i should loose weight but....er....)

Cat, they are the fabbest jeans, the sizing is pretty much spot on (i.e. I wear my usual 28 in them) and they are a lovely shape and soft denim so no muffins of any sort ;) :cool:
annanas, you wear your Deccas to the gym?!:eek:

O/T but new phone help
sorry, bit O/T i know but thought u guys could help
i have a samsung d500 that ive just sold on ebay and want to buy a motorola V3 pink razr.
ive heard a few bad reviews and now am a bit unsure......can any1 put my mind at rest before i go out and buy one next week!!!
Answer:
Ive never had one but I dont think its had as good reviews as the D500. It depends what you want from a phone, also it doesnt have as much memory as D500 andf doesnt take as good pics.
I used to have a Motorola V500 and it wasnt bad, alittle slow and the menu layout (which is the same as the V3) was much more confusing compared to Nokia, Samsung, and Sony Ericsson but you'll soon get used to it if that doesnt bother you.
Having said all this I do love the way the V3 looks.
Im sure someone will reply who has actually owned the phone though.
This site is good for pictures and photos taken from the phone's camera, aswell as some reviews, if you havent already seen it, aswell as
this one here for reviews.
Oh and
Amazon have reviews too.

Answer:
I had a Razr and it was a good phone but couldn't get over that fact i'd had a nokia for 3yrs before hand and it could do more than this brand new motorola could do.
The main prob? It can't capture sounds or record or playback video :faint:
Am going to see if i can sell it on and buy a simless new nokia instead. Samsung is much better Mr Moog has one and loves it!
Answer:
I sold my samsung D500 on ebay to buy a pink razr (are you me?). I didn't get the pink razr in the end, as I hated the violent shade of pink when I saw it in 'real life' (this was before it was released). I couldn't decide on a phone so I bought a silver razr second hand for £50 til I saw a phone I really wanted.
My thoughts on the razr are that its a great looking phone (everyone picks it up and goes 'oooh....flash phone') but its not particularly user friendly; not a fan of the predictive text on it, and texting is slow (I am often 4 word ahead of the phone and have to wait for it to catch up, and its really annoying when you're ahead and it guesses the wrong word!) They're very easy to break, and once they're out of warranty, its difficult to find somewhere to fix them. I've had problems with setting up a bluetooth link with my pooter to send stuff to it as well. To be honest, I wish I'd kept my D500.
Hope this helps!
ETA - Sorry, that didn't really set your mind at ease did it? I wouldn't recommend the phone though, and lots of people on here aren't motorola fans as the os isn't very good/user friendly.
Answer:
I've got the razr V3i, it only comes in titanium, but I think it's fab. It's more advances than the original V3, with a better camera etc. Only thing which lets it down is texting on it, it is quite slow and I often hit the send button before I've finished writing the text! Other than that I love it :D
So you could consider that one?...

problems with lush bag advice needed
i have so far sent 6 emails to lush and no reponse, my lush padlock bags handle snapped off , the pin that holds it on , part of it has snapped off inside.
what should i do i paid via paypal but have tried to file dispute but china isnt a country they cover and theres no tel number.
do you think i could get it repaired ?
really just want replacemnt but they are ignoring me am fuming!1
Answer:
Hello there!
You are not alone. The handle broke off my Lush Padlock bag on it's first outing.
I've sent 3 e-mails to them and had one e-mail back asking for photos, which I sent. Since then, nothing and it's been over a week.
I know others on here have had good service from Lush but it seems that if your bag breaks, the service is appalling.
I spoke to my DH to see what options I had and basically he said there was not a lot I could do because they're based in China.
I'm absolutely fuming over their lack of response. Especially since I bought my bag with birthday money I was given and right now it's sat in the corner of my spare room, broken.
:(
Edited to add - it sounds like you've had *exactly* the same problem as me with the pin snapping. Shoddy company!
Answer:
See my other thread too:
Honest to God, if anyone is considering buying from Lush my advice would be DON'T!! You seem to be OK if your bag doesn't break, but if it does break, you're buggered.
I did a search on this forum and notice that other baggers have received bags from Lush since mine broke and I sent e-mails to Lush to ask them to refund or replace.
Interesting that they're all too keen to take orders but not to answer e-mails from customers with broken bags eh?
Bunch of criminals if you ask me.
Can you tell I'm angry about this? :mad:
Answer:
i dont hold out much hope of them even agknowleding my problem do you think it can be repaired by one of those leather goods shops i.e glued bck on?
Answer:
This is why i wouldn't order from Lush....it's worrying as it's a lot of money!
I'm going to order mine from the ebay seller that's popular on here. She's really good with returns or any problems :)

Hi all,
I had a Primark spree this morning. I got a pair of indigo skinny jeans (perfect fit!), several long tees, a pale blue oriental style shrug and these shoes... Any opinions on the shoes? :)
Sorry, not a great pic. They are wedges with a pale blue fabric front and pale blue ribbon ties that fasten round the leg. They are *so* comfy.
Answer:
i think they look gorgeous! how much were they?
Answer:
Not my cup of tea - sorry :o
Answer:
They were £5.
Answer:
Not really my thing, sory, Im not sure on the silk material and the straw together and the fabric on the ribbons is a bit..I dont know, little girly. But if you like them thats great and for a fiver you can't go wrong :)

Before you wear your Office boots anywhere, score the bottoms with sandpaper as they are seriously slippy!
I just slid all the way down the stairs and landed in a heap at the bottom :(
Thankfully my ample backside cushioned the fall slightly ;)
Answer:
Oh dear, I hope you're not too bruised!
(Yes, I know I'm not CiC :o )
Answer:
Oh Shiny! I do hope you are ok:(
I've ordered the shelly ones to see which i prefer so they may be going:eek:
I'm kinda put off by the fact it's nearly spring/summer although i'm a boots person which is odd:uzzle:
I just can't make decisions at the mo:rolleyes:
