Princess Anne recently made overtures to the fashion industry by having some of her designer tops remodelled which drew sneers from the press, I rather admired her not throwing out her old stuff, and getting them revamped.


Good for you Annie, I am not a royalist but she gets more points from me than all her idiotic brothers.

Ratty brands and incoherent English. Such a good look.

"Yep, it's a myth that the Italians are stylish. Crap leather jackets, tracksuits, ponytails, and stupid pointy shoes can be observed in abundance along the full length of the country."


Yes but none of them (Italians) would wear a short sleeve shirt paired with a tie, chinos and cornish pasty shoes like many of my British work mates.


The Italians' main downfall is a sheep-like adherence to designer labels - think fake Moncler jacket and YSL handbag (both girls and boys) - and they have ruined the British icon that was Belstaff (which is now Italian owned) by recreating the classic Trialmaster jacket in nylon. Che barba!!

You sound graet, sew brag on


W**F

Hehehe, I'm glad I wasn't the only one that noticed Captain Scarlett's interesting choice of labels..


Btw Captain Scarlett, I used to work in the buying office of Armani and you might as well be buying George Armani given that they make all their clothes in China, with the odd stitch done in Italy so they can sell you a suit for a ?1000. More fool you I say.


I couldn't give a stuff what other people wear, it's up to the individual to find things that they feel comfortable and good in. I've seen many a non fatty wearing tracksuits.

Lol......The Grammer police!.....

Really chaps n lasses!....I gather you must be the track suit brigade....so defensive!....or fat?

or skinny pretending they are fit?

>:D<

I'm sorry but the 'George Amani' and 'Bennaton' does it for me because you seem to be making a point that you're somehow better than others because you choose labels over tracksuits..but you can't even get the labels' spellings right! (that deserved an exclamation point).


If your argument was about quality or style choices then you could have chosen to highlight these rather than the labels you buy into. To me this says far more to me about you than anyone who wears a tracksuit.


The above posters summed it up in their quotes from The Devil Wears Prada- there is no industry more commercial than the fashion industry and although I like clothes, being a slave to fashion trends and brands just make me think of sheep buying into a massive marketing spin. But then of course, that's what the industry wants! Enjoy your Timberland boots!

    • There is a large amount fresh veg available in the green book cage outside the copleston church,sprouts,spring onions,potatoes,parsnips and bread rolls,pop down shame to see it get wasted          
    • On the original topic - there was more of this on Whateley Road today. Same place but the other side of the road. Could be the same dogwalker as for the other nearby roads?   I don't have a dog - but would have thought it's hard for owners not to notice when a dog is doing it in the middle of a pavement? 
    • Thought I’d take a trip down to Rye Lane this morning to visit the charity shops etc. I usually park in the Morrisons car park and buy stuff there and then the nearby shops. I know there are a few shops near the Aylesham centre that are having to close (Boots the chemist was a shoplifters favourite over the years) but I was shocked to see the extent of shop closures, graffiti, overall decline in the area.  Sometimes I get the bus and wanted to visit the Crises charity shop but it didn’t open until 10.30am and it had a coffee place inside. They have a shop in Rye Lane but are missing out on early rising customers. Walking down towards Santendar and the Primark store was very empty.Just hope that isn’t due for closure. The security guards are very nonchalant. The Scope charity shop has a prime position but doesn’t promote the shop Greggs have done away with their self service due to the number of thefts of food items.  The Poundland was quite empty too but I visit this one as they have stock since the Camberwell one closed down.         
    • Maybe I'm behind the times, but in the old days if you went to a pub for charity fundraiser you'd have a quiz or karaoke and you'd be chipping in for a new scanner at your local hospital or maybe sending some poor kiddie for some cancer treatment abroad. Nowadays you can roll down to the Old Nun's head in Nunhead and tip your money into a bucket for some sad young woman to go a private surgeon and have her breasts sliced off -  as if that was going to be some kind of life-saving treatment!  Not only that, she's publicising her Valentine's crowdfunder with a funny ha ha (not) cartoon of a girl (see pic) with a hypodermic in her bum and calling it 'Valen-Tits-off'. Jesus wept. Whatever happened to hearts and flowers? It's so unbelievably sick. I'm a woman, I've pretty much still got all the woman-bits intact. Periods and puberty weren't much fun, I was bullied at school, wondered about my sexuality and boys and spots and the rest of it, got called a lezzer by the class cow, but I got through it. And I would no more think that cutting bits off a girl was the solution to her misery than I would put my teenage daughter on a diet if she was diagnosed with anorexia. I can't be the only person who finds the pub - and its publicity material - very VERY offensive?
