Ataraxis - they are adorable!

Phew - TS returns and all is now well in the thread!

Looking for a shirt to go with the lovely lovely suit that the fabulous vg sent for ds1 . Would you put a normal collar shirt with a mandarin collar jacket or would you have a similar (mandarin) style shirt (clearly I have no sense of how to dress boys smartly)?

Thank you oops, I think so too (most of the time), but I am totally and utterly biased

oopsRonanOGarascoconuts · 21/02/2009 22:30

I would go with the similar collar as the jacket.

ataraxis lovely lovely family
I'd be tempted to put another mandarin collared shirt under it so as not to take away from the feature - why not ask VG what looked best when her DS1 wore it?

thank goodness someone else pokes about sore bits

welcome back TS

It's a little pokey uppy collar that does not fold down. (I think?)

oopsRonanOGarascoconuts · 21/02/2009 22:39

And yes that is the technical explanation!

ataraxis · 21/02/2009 22:41

sazz, a frighteningly comprehensive definition here

They are beautiful dizzy, and I have to say I am most impressed with (what I can see of) your kitchen - it looks HUGE as well as lovely!

Dizzy - I can see your DH in DD's 1 and 3 so as a guess DD2 is like you??

dizzydixies · 21/02/2009 22:57

ataraxis its not huge at all but it is a U shape and thats looking right into a corner from the dining room so I can see why you would think that

actually, scrap that, its fecking massive and I live in a big castle up here in Scotland which is where we should have our next thread meet up

btw, have we had the great unveiling (photo) of TS's remodelling, have I missed that ?!

No, no unveiling from TS yet - she was here and has dissapeared again!

dizzydixies · 21/02/2009 23:00

lol oops everyone says DD1 is the spitting image of me and DD2 is like my MIL DD3 is identical to DD1 & my baby photos bless her

there is a photo of me in FB btw, my brother's wedding in 2000 I think he tagged me in it - apart from that I don't exist
