Being honest - no I mean honest - first impressions the way some dress is - that is sluttish. Then one must ask oneself - posh eh! - go back to the 1960's girl if that was fashion then would you have done the same - being honest - yes I mean honest - A big shameful YES. LOL Dorothy |

Ok....so i'm a little over weight but why can't underwear manufacturers realise that women my age (56) like PRETTY undies? Most reasonable priced brands come in white or beige.....WOW! Trifley |

Seems to me that the kids today appear to have to have the best of everything and not making do... I can remember having to wait for my first pair of jeans and I loved them to bits would never have worn them like the kids of today do.. Makeup was a big no no and my ears peirced well that was when I was in my teens....had to wait....lol |

Yes I too have the drama of the nighties....Why is that cause I am larger than the 'NORM' i suppose......Not fair and being vertically challenged just doesnt help at all... |

Yes Butterfly... I had to wait until i was 16 before i was allowed to get my ears pierced! now you see small babies with them... tragic! what happens if they pull their ears.. or have an accident as babies do... and how can you say a pair of tiny gold blobs enhance a babies appearance???? They make them no more ' pretty' and the baby hasnt the first clue about what is fashionable and what is not... it is pure selfish indulgence on the parents part.... |

Our Em........yes I too think it looks horrid when I see babies with those great big gold dangling earrings you would think that it would stretch their ear lobes... if i was to have a girl I would leave it to her to decide wether to have them or not... I can still remember going with a friend when she was having her ears peirced and in those days they used a needle it was horrible.. |

...that phone call from a call centre in India...hello, my name is Gavin Smith... NO IT ISNT! Does your company think I am so daft/prejudiced that I will not spot the fact that you are definitely, and ethnically, Indian? Oh, and speaking as an elderly tart, who loves tart's shoes - why is all footwear now either flat or orthopaedic? Where have all the high heels gone, the pretty and feminine sandals, in fact anything which actually looks like a shoe, and not a snow shoe. OC |
