- Lo mejor: sin duda las faldas. 7 modelos muy bien escogidos y muy de moda.
- Lo peor: los pantalones. Modelo pitillo, totalmente prohibidos para las mujeres de verdad (como yo misma).
- Lo extraño: moda premamá para pleno verano. Cierto es que las pobres tienen el termostato regular pero ponerlas en tirantes en el mes de Noviembre es excesivo.
- Lo estupendo: que por fin pongan a una modelo de carne y hueso que represente las tallas XXL. Enhorabuena Patrones.
I'd just finished my review of Patrones Fall/Winter when I saw on my local newsagent, not one but three new magazines!. Quick as a lighting I got hold of them all, forgetting about buying bread or milk or any other superfluous and unnecessary thing on my way home. Let's start with Patrones. This issue is the especial fall/winter, but if you want to look for proper coats don't go to this one my friend, you'll have to look for the previous one because in here, you'll find short sleeves and light jackets... don't ask me why. Anyway, this is what I found:
- The best: The skirts. Seven wonderful and different models, from very short to pencil and snug fitting. Great.
- The worst: Slim fitting trousers. Lots of them. Too many. Not good for a spanish publication that is supposed to help us all latino women here.
- The odd: spaghetti straps tops and summer clothes for mums to be. Or maybe I missed the point here, and it's for women who are scheduling their pregnancy from February 2011 onwards.
- The winner: A real XXL model. A lot happier than the skinny sad looking lady holding on to the red door.

See above an example of a no-no trouser for me.

A great coat to wear over the skinny no-no trousers

But I wasn't being fair before. There is a nice extra wide pair of trousers that might suit me. I may give it a go.

PD. Seguiremos otro día con las otras revistas que esto se me hace ya muy largo.
And last but not least, a perfect outfit for all women. See how happy she is? See how she doesn't need to hold on to any red door?
PS. I'll leave the other magazines for another post. This is taking too much time off my sewing.
