and I thought no-one is going to look closely .. I'll have them, they'll entertain DS if nothing else

and this morning I wear them to school for the first time under my baggy bottomed trousers and one of my closest friends goes

"Oooo they're nice" "mwahahahahaahahahahaaaahahahahahahahahahahahh snort"

who bends down to look at shoes?

only they don't look the same in close-up as they do under your trousers

Yes, MMJ it is an alien.
I'm going to have to buy a pair of those. They're fab.

TigerFeet · 16/05/2008 11:26

DM's on Amazon?

I still have a pair of these - a relic from my student days. Would people bend down to laugh at them do you think? I am probably a bit middle aged for them these days

toastedteacake · 16/05/2008 11:28

oooh, they're fab. Do you think I could wear those? (mid-thirties and feeling my age today)

BexieID · 16/05/2008 11:31

Now I want a pair!

barnstaple · 16/05/2008 11:57

I want Twilett's!!!

barnstaple · 16/05/2008 11:58

Twiglett's even. The g sticks on my keyboard

BexieID · 16/05/2008 12:04

Amazon only have the white ones in my size in stock .

Twiglett · 16/05/2008 14:36

I am so relieved that they are generally liked

and excuse me TigerFeet but I shan't be seeing 40 again

MrsSchadenfreude · 16/05/2008 17:11

I'd wear them Twiglett - I have a pair of DM's which have a little red tag on, so it looks like they are some flash designer make. One friend bent down to look and it says "Royal Mail."

We have a DM's outlet place near us and I got DD1 a wonderful pair of purple DMs for 20 pounds and DD2 a pair of wild spotty ones for 10 pounds. They love them.
