Claire is wearing a pear necklace [charity shop], multi-cloured print body [Good Goods by Jeff Banks, from jumble sale], thin denim trousers [charity shop] and black canvas hi-top trainers [Dunlop, from Sports Direct].
Covadonga is wearing a black body with sheer panel [New Look].
I'm wearing my body today, and when I told my housemates, they said they wore theirs everyday. Baddum chuusssh. I haven't worn this during the day, so I thought I'd give it a go, especially as it looked sunny today and the pattern is very happy.
Despite the label claiming to be a size 18/20 (lies, LIES!), for someone who is long of body and short of leg, it's a bit of a stretch, and the backside of this is not made to conceal a whole backside. I think it's supposed to offer one of those 'flattering' cuts that shows half your arse on either side, so you can see the stretch as well as feel it. I estimate my current comfort will last until about 3pm, halfway through my lecture.
It's all very 80s and it appears if I so desired I could rip off my jeans (before folding them neatly) and get down with Jane Fonda to do some serious aerobics. Although, I fear my muscles, spine and lung capacity will not match the stretch in this suit.
I have included the label details today, partly because it's a cool name, and partly because I have Googled and Ebayed to no avail about who Jeff Banks is (there's one who designs men's wear for Debenhams) or what else Good Goods may have sold.
Mysteries abound!
