Where to begin….
One of my favourite ‘clothes games’ (I don’t get out much!) is to decide on one item that I want to wear – a top, a pair of shoes – normally something I haven’t worn in ages, and work my outfit around that. On Saturday night I was meeting Katsy and Bestie From The TV for a night of fun and frolics. Having known both ladies for 15 years I knew a skirt or dress would be nowhere to be seen.
I started this outfit with my Sandra D capri pants.
I wanted to dress up, like I said I don’t get out much, but I also wanted to be super comfy and these Sandy D’s give me excellent flexibility – a lunge is never far away when wearing them.
Smaller, one legged lunges are also available.
(charity shop jacket, m&s thermal vest, reworked white t, capri pants from cyprus, fornarina heels, gifted bag from tim)
With the jacket and my hair I felt like I was channelling the new dragon, Hilary Devey, on Dragon’s Den
Now as a small treat I have decided to give you all a little pop quiz this Tersday morn and the prize will be that you get to see my other ear. I know that it is something you’re all looking forward to. My right ear is above…my left one will be showcased when a winner is announced.
How old are my Sandra D, highly malleable, possible camel hoof showing (need to be careful) capri pants?
8, 13 or 15 years old?
What say you?

I’ve been lurking, following you with great interest, but this latest post has moved me to query your definition of a capri pant. You see, I would say these are pedal pushers, and capri pants would be a good couple of inches longer… What say you to that, eh? Either way, I really wish I’d kept that black Topshop pair I had circa 1998 – in fact I was just thinking about them a couple of days ago…
Oh, and I guess 13 years old.
Well, Jules, Welcome to the comments world of RSNK. We are very glad you have come out of the shadows and exposed yourself because I think you are right and I am wrong!! They are indeed pedal pushers and a capri pant is something my Mother wears – normally in cream or off white – that are her’s from the 80’s. Well spotted…that was actually part of the quiz too…just noone else knew about it! 13 you say….mmmmmm
13 years I am certain of it,I reckon those pants were purchased in 1998,the year my daughter was born.
Tell me I’m wrong I dare you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Any advances on 13 years?! xxx
I reckon 15 years! Shame as I really want a pair-they look great!
I think 13 x
Ooh, I’m very excited you think that I’m right, because you are something of a fasion guru to me – but depressed that I am old enough to have worn pedal pushers when they were all the rage in 1980 (or was it ’79?). Only just old enough I hasten to add! I’m certain that the next time they were all the rage was 1998. Will await the quiz answer with bated breath…
Listen Jules, you’ll never be as old as Tim, she’s 105, so don’t you worry. That is lovely that you think I’m a fashion guru, thank you!! Merely a lassy making the most of her wardrobe…Come on girls, dig deep and do the same!! Find an old gem and work around it. It’s so rewarding. x
Oooh I LURVE this outfit! I need to purr-chase a pair of these, this is my family party outit!
I’m gonna go for 8 years to be different!
Love the channelling of Hilary !! 13 years for sure .
I would hazard an uneducated guess at 15 years 🙂 x
So was I right?
Stop holding out on me,I cant take it at my age….
