    Hi Ladies (& gents)

    I've been looking for a decent pencil skirt, black or pinstripe, and can't find one anywhere. Any suggestions where I should go looking or where I might find one?

    Thanks. :)

    Either of those any use? I got a really nice one in H&M a couple of months ago but I can't see it on their website right now.

    New look also have a really nice red one but you specified black or pinstripe so I left it out :)

    NEVER thought of New Look at all, thanks! :D
    May call into the one in Blanchardstown this week see what's there.

    how about tweed?

    (only realised you were looking for black or pinstripe after I went to post a reply)

    This stuff is really good quality and it lasts. Might be a tad pricey for you though.

    If you have cash to spare then have a look at these Wiggle dresses.

    Thanks for all the replies, had planned to go looking this evening but snow is coming down thick again, almost 2wks snowed in now! :eek:

    Anyway I'm actually looking for an outfit for a burlesque and cabaret night out so if you have any suggestions let me know. :p
    My thoughts were the skirt, corset, nice high heels and a few accessories.

    They are gorgeous but the pocket won't allow them at the moment maybe at a later stage though!

    Mrs Goat picked up a pencil skirt in Warehouse recently that hit all the right notes.

    Looks like you'll have to opportunity to show off soon. The Screen Cinema has agreed to show your film recomendation for us. :) See you there.

    Keep an eye out in M&S. I got a lovely grey one there recently with ruffle detail on one side. Didn't expect to get anything so nice in M&S! It was a real find! Everyone asks me if it's Karen Millen! They came in black as well. Nice fit. Very Flattering. Material has a little stretch in it so doesn't show lines, lumps and bumps.
