    oh gosh! im thinking - top hat, suspenders, jump suit, green gloves and purple boots!? sure to make an impression..

    I have no idea.. probs going to be a spur of the moment decision every morning! and i'm sooo not used to the cold weather so keeping warm is a major factor to me.. and yes UK summer's are included in my idea of cold weather, it maybe summer but its not quite hot (well.. maybe minus the heat wave atm.. haha)

    I think those clothes would look hot on a girl. Especially if you have a good tan

    Lmao that is true Mafia! I might give it a go!

    Tan shoes is becoming pretty common, might go dark brown or something..

    I dunno btw, I meant dark blue jeans and tan shoes..light blue looked abit weird!

    Get us talking about colour combinations! sound like right gurls

    i would advise that you dont wear trainers to go out in. Most clubs, and some bars dont allow anyone in trainers, hoodies, caps, or football shirts

    what since when?

    i ALWAYS go out in trainers in Sheffield - its a student run town (well mainly) so the clubs follow with the students - i used to work at the leadmill and they have roughly no dresscode (maybe not hats or hoodies) and i used to work in the central firestation (until about 2 months ago) and everyone in there wore trainers.

    whoever said u can go out in trainers is silly.

    you try going to kingdom/plug/gatecrasher/flares/reflex/walkabout on any night OTHER than a student night in trainers...and they wont let you in. Leadmill yeah they do as they try and appeal more to students, and corp do too. But I jus thought id warn ppl incase the go on a thu/fri/sat or any bank holiday to the above clubs as they wont let you in.

    Having said that my mate nearly got turned away LAST night from Leadmill for wearing CANVAS shoes, it was only coz i knew the doorman and I pleaded that he let him in.
