Now I know it will be difficult to tell us all about your fashion catastophes, because we can't see the pictures but describing them will have to do.

I went to a wedding once in a very BRIGHT GREEN trousers and waistcoat set., being a bit short I had to take the legs up and when the wedding photo's came back...one leg was at least half an inch shorter than the other...still got the piccie...and oh how I laughed....not .

Come on share...your disasters...dare you...lol

My childhood was one big fashion disaster at the hands of my mother who seemed to get pleasure in dressing her red headed daughter in orange and bright yellow lol

My whole life's been a fashion disaster, but the worst was my mother thinking it was a good idea to knit me and my sister bottle green cardigans and skirts when we were little. I shudder even now

Joan ...the hot pants looked great on girls who had the figure for them.....when they first came out I was still wearing a lot of puppy fat so they were not for me...but hey i wore them and thought I looked great...lol

Watch it Ray...kipper ties indeed...lol

I'm a bit old for the Goth look Jax but I like it...think it would have looked good...lol

Go on then Ray....did you wear flares and a big fat tie or were you a teddy boy....lol

High waistband flares Barb,,,,,,,but I was still at school

Fat ties Ray...lol...my hubbys tie when we got married, was so big he could have got away with not wearing a shirt...lol

I had jeans that came well over my waist makes Simon Cowels trousers look like hipsters......

Have put a thread up for you Barb x

Thanks Ray...lol...

I also remember the platform shoes (first time around) me and my mate Pat loved them and we had six inch high ones once, we couldn't actually walk very far in them, had to stick out backsides out just to keep our balance but hey we thought we looked lovely...

but if you ever fell off of them ...very sore ankles indeed...lol

O.M.G !!!! forgot about the shoes lol,,,,for the boys I mean pmsl xxx

er Barb,,,,,thought you said ya bum was big enough already ! lol

Ray xx

lol Ray, I think that's why...I never learnt to walk properly again...lol

My OH had platform shoes on at our wedding..paid a lot of money for them and he wore a blue suit and one hell of a big tie...lol

I've never really been a " fashion" person . I think it stems from my childhood , having two older brothers I just used to wear their out grown clothes . People would ask if I was a boy or a girl.....lol
I once asked my Mum why I didn't look like other girls and she had a guilt attack and bought me a pair of white lacy socks.

I really don't think I could do " smartly dressed " if I tried.......lol
