Designers need there heads looking at! Newlook and Anne Summers rant.


I know iv allways moan about clothes but im surprissed how thick they can be.

I get my jeans from the fatty section in newlook. I can usaly just go in and grab a pair.

Went into newlook in the meadowhall centre, went to get some jeans and the fabric felt different so i thought i better go try them on.

They were about 2 inches lower than the other ones.

That may be fine if your a "healthy" size but when your a 20-22 you want to keep your flab hidden, not spilling over your jeans.

AND THEN i went into ann summers and tryed a basque thinggy on, well i went to try it on and realised it needed lacing at the back so it would have to compleatly be undone to get it on and would need some one else to fasten it up for you

How can you be sexy and dress up for your OH if hes going to have to help put in on in the first place?

I know exactly what you mean, I find it really hard to buy a decent pair of jeans without venturing into Evans.

The hula ones i usually buy are just the right rise, they sit just below my bellybutton.

Meadowhall was realy good, would have been better if i wasent skint:rolf:

Only problem was the toilets wernt very well signposted. I trecked for about 10 mins to go for a wee to later realise there was a toilet where i started off but on the lower level.

I love the build a bare shop, i hinted to OH that he needs to get me one for christmas. Me and a friend were cooing over all the little clothes.

Marks and Sparks are brilliant for jeans. I wear a 24 there but they fit perfectly!!

New look don't do the Hula jeans anymore :''(

The ones they have replaced them with are horrible- I usually get away with a 14 in the hulas but the new ones had to buy a 18
