For Cherub & Sylvi......stretchies

[AgedCrone]

Wouldn't you Section a woman found under a bus wearing these under her black jeans? Actually....they don't look too bad in this photo....but you won't catch me wearing them in full view in public any time soon!

AC

[helixhelix]

Send them to me, I think they look great!

[AgedCrone in reply to helixhelix]

Do you remember Max Wall?

Well that is what I look like in them!

[Cherub198889 in reply to AgedCrone]

I never heard of him, so I looked him up & my gosh, he is fantastic!!!.... I wonder why he wasn't known in my neck of the woods? He would have been loved over here!!

youtube.com/watch?v=G5iGtnC...(Not working as expected?)

[AgedCrone in reply to Cherub198889]

Probably because he was before you were born Cherub... remember in the Olden Days we didn't have TV..just silent movies & Radio!

[Eiram50 in reply to Cherub198889]

Sooooo funny!!

[sylvi in reply to AgedCrone]

Ha ha ha ha.xxxx

[LizzieR in reply to helixhelix]

Me too! Though my kids would prob die of embarrassment. Again x

[AgedCrone in reply to LizzieR]

That is what Mum's are for...to embarrass their kids especially at Christmas..buy them in a size too small..& wear them with white stilettos.....that will really hack off your kids

[LizzieR in reply to AgedCrone]

Lol. Getting any colour stilettos on would be a major ERM feat - these days! Or at least walking in them would be! X

[AgedCrone in reply to LizzieR]

You don't need to be able to move Lizzie..just drag them on when the kid's friends come round ......sitting on a a bar stool would show them off to good effect! Maybe pink hair too?

[LizzieR in reply to AgedCrone]

I'm gonna go for it x

[sylvi in reply to AgedCrone]

Or multi coloured like mine.xxxx

[sylvi in reply to LizzieR]

Mine always do,but tough on them i am going to wear them.xxxx

[Cherub198889]

I love them!! Send me a pair!! Those look like dress pants to me...lol

[AgedCrone in reply to Cherub198889]

The postage would cost more than the leggings ..got them in a sale in the local supermarket for £6! Size8 Cherub!

Quite enough to pay for leggings that will never be seen outside my boudoir!

[Cherub198889 in reply to AgedCrone]

Well,,,how dare you!....I too can fit into a Size8!.....I just have to sew two pairs of size 8s together!!!

[nomoreheels in reply to Cherub198889]

It gets worse Sue, a UK size 8 is a Canadian size 6!

[Cherub198889 in reply to nomoreheels]

Oh no!!!

[sylvi in reply to Cherub198889]

What size are you darling,if you don't want everyone to know you can message me.xxxxx

[Cherub198889 in reply to sylvi]

Well, 2 years ago I was a size 10....I was 5'8" and I used to weigh 155 pounds....

Now, 2 years later ... well... I am still 5' 8"

[sylvi in reply to Cherub198889]

Well your lucky when i was at the lung function they weighed me and took my height and i have shrunk again, now i am 5' 5" 1/2 ,xxx

[keeta]

Ha ha very fetching.

Someone feels the cold .bless xx

[Gnarli]

I wouldn't bother wearing the jeans to be honest. Check leggings/trousers are very on trend at the moment and I think they look great. Where did you get them oh stylish but chilly lady?

J

[AgedCrone in reply to Gnarli]

Sainsburys sale..but look closely...both LEGS don't match.....so one LEG looks fatter than the other!

But they are warm!

[Gnarli in reply to AgedCrone]

Anyone looking at my legs that closely had better be a good friend. Anyone else is due a smack

[AgedCrone in reply to Gnarli]

At my age as long as "they" look but don't touch, I'm grateful!!!

[Cherub198889 in reply to AgedCrone]

Oh, AG....Yes, one of your legs does look fatter.... but aren't you glad these stretchies will hide your flaw?...hahaha

Suexxoo

[AgedCrone in reply to Cherub198889]

Why do you think I bought them?

I was thinking of buying some in a different colour,but they only have peuce & purple left..& I don't want to go too over the top!

[Gnarli in reply to AgedCrone]

Together? Oh my

[sylvi in reply to AgedCrone]

Why ever not i would wear them.xxxxxx

[Cherub198889 in reply to sylvi]

me too!!!

[sylvi in reply to AgedCrone]

I am going to a christmas fair today so i might wear one of my Christmas jumpers.xxxx

[Cherub198889 in reply to sylvi]

I think the word "jumper" in the UK means a sweater? Jumpers over in my neck of the woods means something else.

[sylvi in reply to Cherub198889]

Dare i ask what.xxx

[Cherub198889 in reply to sylvi]

I'll privately message you.

[allanah]

Great!!

[Nettac]

What were you doing under a bus? Not a good place to knit beards....or was that someone else??

I like the troosers, but wouldn't wear them on account of being a fatty. Stripes and checks, not a good look for me...not even Under jeans.

[AgedCrone in reply to Nettac]

Oh I wear a thing under my jeans. Favourite is shocking pink from Aldi!

[Cherub198889 in reply to Nettac]

Ahhhh Nettac....get over it. You are a beautiful woman, so if you chose to wear stretchies....well...GO FOR IT!! Who cares what society thinks or says? If you are over the age of 50 you deserve to live your life in comfort.

[sylvi]

I love them and yes i would wear them,actually wait until you see my Christmas leggings well they are something else altogether.xxxx

[AgedCrone in reply to sylvi]

Actually in the photo they look quite wide, but they are in fact footless tights!l

Quite a sight as i Lie on my bed, legs in the air trying to get them off!!

[Cherub198889 in reply to sylvi]

Oh, I love to see your Christmas leggings. I think I'll go buy a pair of Christmas leggings to wear with my ugly sweater....

Hey Sylvi, do you Brits have "Ugly Christmas Sweater' parties?

[Hidden in reply to Cherub198889]

Christmas Novelty Jumpers. With Bells/Lights/Music etc etc. I'm sure last year i remember seeing a Christmas novelty onesie!!

That's definitely not one for me

[Cherub198889 in reply to Hidden]

Oh Ruthytootie2, you don't know the fun you are missing!! Go out and buy one or make one of your own, then host an Ugly Sweater party

[Hidden in reply to Cherub198889]

The Novelty jumper I could wear, but as for a onesie... I have a limit to my style of dress code, & it stops at onesies

[sylvi in reply to Cherub198889]

I don't,but i have heard about them. I have brought two Christmas tunics to wear to a couple luncheons we are going to in the coming weeks. Yes there will be photos to come.xxxx

[Cherub198889 in reply to sylvi]

2 Vancouverites started a charity called "The Now that's Ugly Society" . This "Now that's Ugly Society" hosts the Ugly Christmas Sweater Party at the Commodore Ballroom every December & all monies are donated to the MAKE A WISH FOUNDATION. They also host " Runs" all over North America.

So for the last 15 years people who host "Ugly Christmas Sweater" parties, and can't get or afford the Commodore Ballroom tickets take donations from their guest and give to the MAKE A WISH FOUNDATION.

Ugly Christmas Sweater Parties have now taken off all over Canada & the USA. Time to get the UK involved....It's time to get UGLY!!!!

[GranAmie]

beats my shocking pink helly hansens hands [ouch] down LOL ... like your style xx

[ITYFIALMCTT in reply to GranAmie]

I've a pair of Helly Hansens that are allegedly magenta but are actually shocking pink in anyone's eyes.

(DH and I have many thermals because we're keen kayakers.)

[GranAmie]

a disused reservoir here has been bought and refurbed as a great kayak / polo centre - super views from my window here near Carryduff. wish i were younger ...

[nomoreheels]

They look just the job... though like you it's not my style to wear them as intended. I might try your suggestion though & wear them under my jeans, I find if I'm not wearing my long down coat my thighs get cold. Thanks.

[sylvi]

What some love lovely comments,i am going to get my Christmas gear out.xxxxx

[Deminem]

I like um! I know ppl say there's no accounting for taste, wink!

I almost bought a pair just like them yesterday in Select fashion store sale. But I already have so many like it. If you wear them with a plain black top and some pumps it's a classy with a twist look and your good to go imo!
