Didnt think so, I also have 8 tops, 3 cardis, 2 skirts, 2 pairs of trousers and a jacket. I wasn't sure what the weather would be like.Originally posted by cailin maith View PostNot in the slightest
Its great commuting by car - I can bring loads more clothes than when I'm on the train
Some weeks I only bring 4 outfits so I know exactly what I'll be wearing each day so I eliminate all the faffing around in the mornings, this week was not one of them
I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this

Oh and if we are mentioning brands I only ever buy M&S suits, as they are a very good fit, 1 jacket with 3 pairs of trousers... [repeat in different styles]Comment
