How come you took the others out?..
And yes. They look great. However, plain ones would not. I think the only way those would look good is if they were stripey and were dark colours. Imagining the same ones in light colours just seems wrong for so many reasons.
they're back in now!
i was wondering why the links wouldn't show up as images. whoops.
The leg warmers - Yah
The ponchos - A little more difficult. Mostly depends on where you're wearing them I think. Depending on where you plan to wear them, they should be fine. I think it looks good.
The hat - Probably not. Not only for the reason that it's burberry, but also for the reason that it can be quite awkward. It depends a lot on what you would wear with it, but I don't think many things that cover a girls hair actually look great.
Still look good in my opinion.
Flat caps belong to the country. If they take off as the in thing then shit loads of farmers round here and going to be trendy old geezers.
Ponchos. I never liked them before, but my friend bought one from M&S & it looks great on her, so I might consider trying one on to see if it suits me. I think I'd go for a dark brown/black poncho rather than the pansy pink crochet style ones that most girls are wearing.
Leg warmers. The ones in the photo are naaasty! Although I have to admit, I own a pair of long grey/black striped ones which are fairly similar. I like them. But I don't wear them very often.. I wear black high socks instead, because I can.
One thing I'd NEVER EVER EVER wear though is leggings! Girls seem to like wearing leggings underneath their mini-skirts these days, and it makes me want to vom everywhere. It's like the law of the land that all leggings should be thrown away or set alight. Agh, nightmare.
{Glaswegian version of "Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeew!" Add a wee "Nay" in there, too thank you please.}
other two...no
I also loooove legwarmers...although about 6 months to a year ago when girls were wearing neon pink ones with a neon pink top, white mini skirt and white stilletoes, I thought they were the pits. Some people can really pull it off though, and on those people I think it looks ace. Sadly, I am not one of those people
I've never liked poncho's although this season, i think the look cool. Some look so cheap and nasty though, so you have to be careful what ones you pick. I've seen a great black one in Topshop (Oxford Street). It would look great with some funky jeans and black flipflops/high heeled shoes.
Flatcaps...Not anymore. I had one when they were 'in' and that was when I was 13/14. They may be starting to come back in, but the majority of them look tacky. Theres a few cute ones around, 'though you'd have to search hard to find them.
The ponchos are ok. Maybe.
Flat cap, no way. It's the sort of thing my grandad would have worn.
