smart coats and silly hats = no?
I'm quite fond of silly hats, not those jester ones, but just hats that are bright, patterned and quite silly - makes me feel a bit sunnier come winter time!
But now I am on the lookout for a winter coat - yawn I know(!) -I am suddenly struck down by thoughts of co-ordination :lol:
There are two coats that I currently like: a grey 'tweed' duffle coat from Matalan, and a black 'ribbed' funnel coat (with military shoulder detail) from New Look, both around 40 pound mark and - I'm on a budget :sniffles: oh and both are quite smart.
So, my big qu is which would look better with the um tasteful accessories? Duffle or funnel?
I'm thinking it would probably be better to get a 'hippy' style coat from a surf/skate shop, but damn that budget
:mad:
Oh and any coat suggestion that meets my criteria of under 50 pounds, thigh/knee length and an all-round versatile style, prefferably petite and lightweight, then feel free to suggest!:)
Answer:
1 Attachment(s) Oooooooooo just found this coat, much better suited for the hat thing tho a bit casual for work - it's 130 pounds from Fornarina...damn budget...again :mad: :mad:
Anyone see anything similar?
Answer:
Hello! I wear my black smart knee length coat with my blue beaded and sequined beanie hat all the time and I think I look great :) I say go for it! there has to be something ot make you feel brighter in the dismal weather ;)

Answer:
I know that Topshop are - 20% if you're a student.
But they're not a department store. Doh.
Answer:
Debenhams have. :)
Answer:
You'll end up spending more than 10% on the interest - can you hang on till the sales start?
Answer:
I'm going to pay it all off - I'll save a reasonable amount by putting the coat on a card. I *never* pay interest.
Tiggeriffic - thanks - I'll check Debenhams website to see what ranges they stock.
my turn to ask for ebay help!
NO.4. ask :
my turn to ask for ebay help!
i've just had an alert of ebay saying i need to pay some money for listing items, but all this time i've thought that they were just taking that money straight from my paypal/bank account as i listed the items. do you think i can leave it a week or so to pay or will they ban me from ebay or something? i'm quite scared, i'm on there as much as i'm on here!
Answer:
I imagine it would be fine. If you look at your statement via your myebay page, doesn't it tell you the due date??
Answer:
Think there's normally a place on the invoice where it tells you, you have to pay by. I normally pay mine by the 15th of the month to avoid an invoice, so haven't had one in a while. If you haven't paid by the date they give you, your auctions will be cancelled you'll become NARU, so I'd pay them sooner rather than later.
Answer:
I always assume emails like that are bogus. Check you account status once you long into eBay and you will get the true picture and avoid getting scammed.
Answer:
they messed up one month on the direct debit from my bank account, and all they do is put your account on hold, until the invoice is paid off.
no panic necessary.

NO.5. ask :
Stella for HM
Hello girls,
Don't normally post in here but are they still stocking Stella for HM in the UK? I live in Brussels and went to the largest HM here and there was loads of stock in. Picked up one of the jumpers. Just wondering if it was still in stock in the UK as I'd heard it was completely sold out.
Answer:
Well I was in a random HM yesterday, and tey had Stella baggy vest tops, skinny jeans and some huge oversized jackets, an some Tees, so yes it's still here.
Answer:
They are re-stocking in London today, and I was at the Knightsbridge store last night, the brown trenches and black tux jackets were already on the rails.
I've sent Mr PC to get me the wide leg trousers this morning :D
Answer:
I saw those trousers last night and was tempted, think it will have to wait til pay day though!
Answer:
The stock for the UK has been collected and sent to a handful of the more popular stores now. There's a list of the stores on the HM website, under "last chance to buy".
