Re: Thobes etc.
Turning to Christmas as we inexorably are, I've agreed to attend Sean's Christmas night out as his plus one. There will be a dinner first. It's being held in a 'function suite'.
I'm thinking of having this exact thing made, also scooped at the backless back, then going down to the floor in a shimmering column, with my gold leather Jimmy Choo Anouk shoes, a simple pair of diamond studs, and a one strand diamond bracelet. Hair up of course.
Considering December weather, I'll have my grandmothers black Jaeger pea coat with gold buttons on at first and on leaving.
I will get a simple hire car to take me there because I feel like being driven in my own vehicle would be too flashy for a gathering of social workers and related mental health professionals. And whoever their own partners are.
Do we think this looks and sounds suitably festive? Feel free to use this thread to contribute and discuss your own Christmas outfits.

Currently 20% discount at Joseph if you spend more than £500, and 25% over £800 - very generous.
This weekend I got a couple of cashmere sweaters for my son and an excellent white jacket for myself. Chicken risotto fab as ever, although I did weep into mine over my baby being tall enough to wear small adult sizes.
Get yourselves down to Sloane Street, Fulham Road or Brompton X before the best is gone. Evidently also in Birmingham and Leeds.

Not excessively but I do. Keeping up with tanning too.

Re: Thobes etc.
An extremely fabulous day tomorrow. There are a handful of jewellers that even I, as a confident and experienced shopper, find pretty intimidating.
Our young assistant, promoted on my insistence after a sacking, has miraculously managed to book me in with two of them back to back tomorrow morning, for perusal and borrowing purposes.
I rang Sean just there to tell him about the excitement of £1m+ chandelier earrings but he belittled me, and tried to move the conversation onto Jeremy Corbyn. So we've fallen out.
It's due to his presence that I'm unable to truly thank this young man, so I find it pretty ungrateful to be harangued again about what I'm going to do, living in an extremely tight marginal seat...
One of the winning 20 votes here last time was mine, in spite of myself. Clearly I am going to have to do so again, despite the party not being nearly as pro-EU as I favour. The MP herself is great.
But anything above a sewer would've been an improvement on the inbred f***wit who collectively shamed us pre 2017. A necklace and rings would be selfish I think. Best to leave things modestly at earrings.
In any case, a necklace wouldn't go well with a high collared thobe. We'll have a laugh - a fashionable young guy in his early 20's is the best and most honest shopping partner. I'll take him for lunch after he's done his 'smash or pass' thing.

Re: Thobes etc.
With a fitted white shirt, one with baggy upper arms - this would do nicely for spring.
I'll see what's in Yacco Maricard. They rarely fail in the white shirt department.

Re: Thobes etc.
I think tucked in to a pair of belted white jeans, with the top three or four buttons undone, this will work for me...
It would also give my white suede Choo Anouks a natural outfit to go with. I weighed the white stiletto up long and hard before purchase. They are tricky to really pull off.

Re: Thobes etc.
For many many years, I have desired the following two Alaia dresses. I've scoured the globe in fact - just last year I was in Decades in LA for just that purpose. They had neither. They are difficult to get - many are now in design museums, but there are a few floating around still.
This one...
And this one, the one face on in the centre of the three...
This will be the year I finally get both of them.

Re: Thobes etc.
Not usually one for logos, but I'll make an exception for this brilliantly cut shirt...

Re: Thobes etc.
For $45.99 I love it...
I think that'll look great on top of a plain grey cashmere sweater.
I've enjoyed the emergence of s*xual fetishwear derived pieces into street fashion that we've all seen everywhere over the last couple of years. I've invested in the odd item myself - in particular, a Chinoiserie threaded black silk neck rope has become a treasured accessory of mine. I think now with Covid 19, a touch of the morbid could be an upcoming thing. This design, with its nod to the skeleton, is a unique blend of both.
This rhinestone body harness is also very fetching...

Jacket only...
Hmm. No. Neiman Marcus - I thought it was TVAM or Meridian Television branded...

The Quality Street look...
Diffused for the suburbs...
I just don't know. It's got to the stage you can't even go out for milk without seeing people dressed like this. Maybe I should lean in despite my reservations.
My mother had a long white pleated skirt when I was a kid. I didn't like it much, although looking back at pictures I see she was young and tall and tanned enough to look fashionable in it.
Several years later I was astonished to see Princess Diana wearing one at Neasden Temple because by then she had owned the well above the knee pencil skirt, a look I happily adopted and have continued to love.
I've even spent the last twenty or so years doing leg presses and using that boring calf muscle trainer at the gym, so this very silhouette would be set off perfectly. I haven't done all that due diligence to see hemlines drop to the ankle.
Thanks to this regime, I can move the heaviest of furniture without help, simply from leaning against the item with my back and pushing it backwards from leg strength alone. So it's had all kinds of benefits which wouldn't exist were it not for Di.
If memory serves me rightly, this was just after she lamped an abusive photographer and had a passer by pin him to a wall while she destroyed his camera. Now magazine had a lovely set of action photographs across four pages and a statement on assault/witness appeal from The Met.

Re: Thobes etc.
As luck would have it, I've got all this anyway...
I think it says informal but responsible. No flash considering the horrors to come. Suitable for visiting my own doctor, going to buying cigarettes, and volunteering to do some shopping for elderly people - once I know I've had the virus and have lived.

Re: Thobes etc.
I don't think you can beat a Fab* for a bit of everything, each satisfying layer to be scraped off with your teeth, to leave a very juicy happy ending. By far my favourite lolly.
But I'd prefer it on this. I like the fit and fabric and slightly darker colour better. And black jeans go better with grey marl.
*That said, I was unbelievably grateful for the box of Calypos I had in my freezer when I had an intimate reaction that caused excruciating burning pain.
I have tended since my teens not to eat Calypos in front of others, due to my relatives saying I ate them the way a bl*wj*b should be performed.
