I think they're turtles? Tbh, while I wouldn't wear that skirt myself her outfit is overall infinitely better than the shapeless floral bin bag dresses that seem to be the height of middle class fashion at the moment.

The scariest thing is that these are all the people who are giving advice on how to look ‘stylish’ in the S&B threads. It’s the last place I’d go for tips on how to look good and what to buy.

I’ve just howled at the thread about a man paying for the first date. I think I can see why the OP is single!

What about the one that went abroad for a birthday party.

Not buying it but then I don't believe any thread on that site.
