Mumsnet Talk

For lots of nice stuff, links and so on.

Beat me to it. Nice one! This one should be sub headed - following fashion with gay abandon!

I know I went for the minimalist route! Nearly dropped the MN for a sleek Vogue vol.4. Might be too much?

Novice which Balenciaga?

Dona look vol. 4, you are always welcome, would be great to have you back.

Shop did you get your lovely new scarf from FC or Tkmaxx?

I need one

Still saves the hassle of thinking up rhyming thread titles like we did with W&A...

Agree, minimal it is.

I always loved the W&A thread titles. However, I feel Anna Wintour (although not Alexandra Shulman) would appreciate the starkness of this thread title.

I often wonder how AS got that gig.

Don't we all!

Marking my place. I still am trying to think of things I want/need for this season (besides THE dress). I am trying to be good because I have my name down for a new bag too. Technically I am banned from purchasing anything for the next couple months, but I can ogle from the sidelines.

Hey Sansucre!

So while we're on the topic, would you drop the MN?

I imagine them like Vogue magazines stacked neatly, with the white spine.

Hey Mominatrix, woohoo.

Anni 'twas from TK Maxx in sunny London Colney. Last one on the shelf.....

Thanks Shop, I didn't look at scarves, might nip back tomorrow.

Yay - a new thread! God those bags, I was never into bags at all until I discovered MN and now I am desperately feeling like I need something decadent for my shoulder/arm...

Shop I have done well in TKMaxx but I visit a branch almost every week to check it out as stock moves fast. I regularly visit branches in Uxbridge, Harrow, Hammersmith and Wembley Central - which are all locations I pass through with work commitments. Wembley Central branch is my favourite - (if you don't know the area it's awful - the joys of public sector work, offices in horrible locations) but it's by far the tidiest, brightest best laid out TKMaxx ever. I have been searching for jeans for two months and yesterday's success with the 7FAM's was at the Harrow branch and it was probably the least numbers of pairs of jeans I had seen there and they were the only pair of 7's there.

Marsha! I imagine that if the Mumsnet tag was to be dropped, you, we, the thread could be accused of being elitest
However, I don't mind that at all, especially as it will almost be a pre-warning that this thread includes all the lovely fashion terminology that (some) others seems to find so disdainful. We can talk about pops of colour, a red lip, strong brows, Bretons and the perfect kind of trouser (or shoe) to our hearts content. Plus, I quite agree, it will look far nicer for future filing purposes.

I really need to try to stop by this thread more. I was trying to figure out

Sansucre I do love a strong brow. Did you get the Sessun peacoat in the end? I didn't, not even in the sale.

That's the issue, I don't have the patience for TK Maxx shopping, and I couldn't understand why they had to search the clothes I was trying on before and after I went into the changing room.
They told me they get deliveries at 5pm everyday so you need to go in then for the best deals. Not going to happen for me. I'll stick to the Outnet I think.

Sansucre laughing as I hang some more 'pieces' in my wardrobe

I did. Then promptly took it back as I decided to buy the Max & Co coat instead. And I'm glad I did because a) it's the best coat ever and b) I spotted the Sessun peacoat in the peacock blue in an advert for DFS or some other furniture store!

And I do love a strong brow too. Btw, I've just painted my nails for a nice pop of colour against the grey I'm planning to wear tomorrow

Piece!! Thank you Shop, I knew there was something I'd missed out!

Marsha all your links to your lovely winter white Acne sweater and the number of times you mentioned wearing it had me yearning for one so today I ordered this Ivory Des Petits Hauts. Intend to wear it almost exactly as modeled there and also to wear with this H&M print skirt which I bought just before Christmas.

lol Sansucre. And DFS! I'm glad I didn't too.

Ah that's gorgeous Liberty. Love that H&M skirt too.

Oh the searches at TKMaxx are just ridiculous - it must be a new policy as it was quite pointed yesterday.

People will be foaming at the mouth sansucre
