Are they hold ups or the kind which go all the way to your waist?

Tights that go all the way up! Warmer than hold ups and suspenders in this weather

Michellenman · 26-01-2010 12:45am

I got these in blue a while ago, then I saw the red ones and I couldn't resist.

Faith · 26-01-2010 2:21pm

So cute! Where are they from?

Toto Wolfcastle · 26-01-2010 2:25pm

I just bought these out of necessity. I got the camouflage and red ones.

I also got these in blue.

I wish they were prettier.

ZzubZzub · 26-01-2010 2:40pm

From Dunnes, €20!! I'm not usually a heels person, and generally wear my doc martins out! But I lasted all night in them!!

Barratts shoes always cut my feet

. And I don't know if there's still a Barratts in Cork anymore?

I think the one in Mahon Point is still there, isn't it? I don't know, I don't remember it closing. The one in town is gone though I think. I could be totally wrong here.

Michellenman · 26-01-2010 6:17pm

I'll ask in work next time if there is or not and let you know Faith.

Normally they cut me too but these ones are just different. They're not hard around the ankle and don't come up too high to cut in to me either. I think the t-bar keeps them on tighter too so they don't rub up and down as I walk. Big thumbs up from me! It's also why I bought them in two different colours and am contemplating a third pair :P

phasers · 26-01-2010 8:06pm

Speaking of Barratts, got these for a fiver in Liffey Valley the other day

Oooh Michellenman I've been eyeing those ones up for a while, stop tempting me

Novella · 27-01-2010 2:59am

Loads of other stuff that I can't find pics of, went a bit shopping happy this week!

nomdeguerre · 27-01-2010 3:59pm

Got these in Schuh in Dundrum yesterday:

Vinta81 · 27-01-2010 5:21pm

Got this for my college ball today in Coast (well my mum did

) and it's gorgoeus on, it kind of twirls even on the hanger! It'll got perfect with my black Dolces

Twee. · 27-01-2010 8:39pm

Oh the bottom looks gorgeous! Well, the whole dress does, but especially the twirly end.

I got a beautiful dress in Reiss today for €37 down from €215!!! I can't find a pic online but will take one myself later. Seriously recommend the sale to anyone, 70% off, it's crazy! Clothes, shoes, bags!

Lia_lia · 27-01-2010 9:00pm

Ohhh Vinta it's fab! Jealous. Wish someone would buy me a dress. Which ball is it? The business one? If so see you there! (not that I do business, but it's the most fun ball!)

yes yes, oh lord now you have to tell me what you're wearing. I'll be propped at the bar, extorting all the Malibu

Lia_lia · 28-01-2010 3:44am

I have absolutely no idea what I'll be wearing! Will probably get myself a new dress once I get back to Cork (any excuse!!).

wixfjord · 28-01-2010 4:49pm

This from BT2, in navy, €40

Spent a fortune on the new stuff in Penneys- gorgeous stripy tops in baby pink and navy with rope belts were my favourite, lovely cardigans too.

Hermione* · 29-01-2010 1:55am

I recently took possession of these boots in black:

I must thank janeybabe for bringing them to my attention. I am in love with them! As a long legged gal, it's a first for me to have knee high boots which actually reach my knee. It'll take a while for the novelty of that fact to wear off!

Coleman Jacket

and a nice cardigan which was originally €34.95 aswell:) (that I can't find a picture online of)
Not bad for €20!

Also got a juice d'orange dress which was supposedly originally €75 for €10 in another shop and a nice summery(

) top in the same shop for €10 aswell. (can't find a picture of either)

Then I popped into Dunnes where I got a load of clothes for my boys, most of which were down to €1 each!!

And also went to Boots and used my last 2 €7.50 vouchers and got a french manicure set and cleansing wipes for just €3.25. (saving €15)

Hey. Do you wear those shirts on their own, or with a cardigan/jumper?

I just bought these yesterday after seeing your post. I love them! They look really good with black tights and will look great with skinny jeans too.
Thank you and I hate you!

As soon as I am finished college and employed, I am buying myself a pair of J Brand jeans. Definitely!

Toto Wolfcastle · 31-01-2010 9:24pm

I wanted it in red but I reminded myself that it wouldn't go with a lot of my wardrobe so I bought the grey instead. The red is gorgeous though.

Red is my colour so i was happy to go for it, my friend has the navy.

I bought mine two weeks ago for €115 and its down to €70.

Red is my colour too which is why I wanted it so badly.

Ah well, the grey is nice too.

That sucks that it went down by so much but I suppose that's the risk we take when we buy stuff. It's much better to get something when you want to get it rather than wait in the hope that it will be reduced further.

Michellenman · 31-01-2010 10:04pm

Got these two in Newlook this evening. They've 20% off with a student card at the moment so I got them both for less than €25, happy days

And a knitted kind of dress/long top from topshop. It's sleeveless grey with navy stripes and a slit held together with red buttons. It's not on the topshop site yet though. Most comfortable thing I've bought in aaages.

Was just wondering, coz to me, the shirts look a bit busy to wear on their own. Plaid shirts seem to be making a bit of a resurgence, but I'm struggling to appreciate them!
