I'm shattered, I went to the ski shop in St Albans today and found nothing so, obviously disappointed, I thought I'd pop up to Ellis Brigham in MK seeing as I was so close to the M1. A waste of time for me, I couldn't find what I wanted at all (a nice fitted white jacket at a bargain price). Quite a lot of stuff in there though and I got to watch the skiers for 10 mins to whet my appetite :D

Still, going out for a meal tonight should cheer me up - 23 years ago today mr a uttered the words "will you go out with me" :lol:.


Thats some memory, Caron. Lucky old Mr A I say....

Just an observation, but I found it very difficult picking out people wearing white jackets on the slopes, not that there were many of them. It was bad enough with Mrs H's white sallos, but jackets???
I dont know of many people who make plain white ladies fitted ones, although I would expect Kjus and Eider probably do, and I have defo seen white North Face ones.
Have you looked in Blacks, as they have got good sales on skiwear?

Ta :thumbup:

I was going for the chic look, what with my black fitted salo's that the group bought for me last year. I did try a North Face one but it was too short in the arms (don't ask!).

But after all that, it's occurred to me that I wouldn't be able to wear tinted moisturiser while I was wearing it would I. Girly I know but slightly important :P

So now, I'm back to square one, what colour to pick :roll:

Caron,
My daughter wears white trousers and a white jacket with a small amount of red in it, and a brown and pink ski hat, and I have no trouble picking her out on the piste, even when she's miles ahead of me, and she looks pretty smart as well (her make-up matches too!).

Best of luck with finding a suitable outfit,

Ally

Hoops, ever thought about a hooped jacket, maybe white and black, just a thought :shock:

I've just seen this one, very like my black columbia one

Quite like this one too

Snow and rock have got quite a few but they're either too expensive or not my size :cry:. I may have to wait until next season...

edit: scrap the second one, hadn't seen the size :cry:
