    I guess it's because girls look so feminine in them and summer
    generally cheers people up.

    Have come out in a full body rash :( It's either from new bath products, or dips from a pizza place I ordered from last night for the first time :p But serious dose of itching!

    Yeah probably. I think it's also cos people like wearing Summery clothes. You can always tell when a girl in a Summery dress feels nice about her dress. It radiates! :)

    Yuuuuuuuck, that happened to me once because of a new soap and it was so itchy... I can't use that brand now but I can never remember what brand it was and hence, constantly have to ask my mom. Haha. :o

    Ahhh summer dresses.
    [Wanters off to a happy place] :)
    I've not been in Miss Selfridges in years. I only tend to see the shops that Mrs.Goat likes (or that the Kidletts occasionally drag me into). next time I pass I'll pay more attention to the window displays.

    Speaking of window displays, walked past Arnotts on saturday and in the window they have a few manniquns (sp?) wearing ballet tutu's. Mrs. Goat almost tore the arm outta my socket as she rocketed inside to get one (or one of each colour) only to be told that they are display only. The bloke inside said he could have shifted 50 units that morning alone judging by the enquiries he's been getting.

    It was some Irish spa brand. I'd had such a gorgeous bath with exfoliator and bubble and all the trimmings! But of course I wake up like this. It's gone down a bit this morning, and to quote my mam "at least it's not on your face"! Have to sit a 2 hour exam though. Man!

    Ah loads of shop put things in their window displays that aren't on sale, bit silly! I used to work in River Island and I remember once in the window there were these pretty amazing head pieces and masks. It was Hallowe'en time and the amount of people who wanted to buy them and we'd have to say, "Eh, they're not on sale...". "SO WHY ARE THEY IN THE WINDOW THEN?!", "I don't know :(". People can get verrrry angry!

    Window displays in charity shops used to really annoy me. They would always manage to find some piece that was wonderful and when you make an offer on it they 'Don't sell the pieces in the window'. I've since learnt to ask them when do they change the window display.

    <-<
    >->
    though a lot of my regular haunts will put pieces aside for me. :D

    I have just started wearing over the knee socks with dresses and skirts.
    I quite like the look once it's done properly.
    Any opinions?

    I think it's a cute look! I'm thinking of getting a pair, but I'm not sure how they'll look. Not the biggest fan of my legs!

    I like over the knee socks, but I'm not brave enough to actually wear them anywhere other than around the house! :( I do really like the look though!

    I guess my legs would be my best asset which is why I'm pretty comfortable
    with the look, Must say I really like the look, It can transform the look of an outfit
    with the right accessories.

    A friend of mine has been doing some modeling for an outlet in Kinsale. For those of you with a taste for vintage it's too good a site for me not to mention. Just wanted people to know that my only interest in the outlet is through Susan (one of the photo models).
    Anyday, disclaimers aside... Charlotte And Jane. I couldn't wait for a suitable thread to come up so I'm posting the link here. :o
