oooh! isn't this nice? For some reason having eschewed all things blue in recent years, am now buying a lot of blue.

rufus101 · 04/10/2010 20:36

HF I'm blind! Those boots are incredible. (And not in a good way!)

DolceeBanana · 04/10/2010 20:56

Okay Cakey...post me pics again of your boots.... Smile I am getting peed off searching...and cannot remember which ones you have. You have brown ones too? Thanks oh lovely one!

Dh having a guitar lesson....oh bloody hell thought this was a flash in the pan...think he wants to strum me some Albeniz, or something.....Well after weeks of lessons, he can manage about 4 cords...

I didn't like the UGG bikers Esher...

Am getting stir-crazy...Wanted to do some RL clothes shopping this week...try new jeans on etc etc etc...oh no! And 3 days of being in with the spotty boy...he's going stir crazy too now...little boys do need running out like doggies don't they?

Aww...lovely moment last night though...I was in his very large single bed (not!) with him, and he was stroking my face with his poxy hands (pox covered hands I should say), and he said, 'Mummy, I wish I could reach up to the sky for a star for you'...how lovely...and I forgot for a moment how my friend ended up with shingles immediately after her son was done with the pox.....!

eshermummy · 04/10/2010 21:00

sorry Dolcee, when I went back to look at them I didn't like them either. But someone def linked to some good ones on another thread recently....must track them down.
Have found another few options for you but am going to eat my dinner now.
Back later x

notyummy · 04/10/2010 21:04

Aw Dolcee - how sweet!!

DolceeBanana · 04/10/2010 21:11

You are a star Esher! Enjoy din dins....What did you have? I love hearing about other people's dinner choices...Smile

We had Spag Bol tonight...with hidden veg, you name it...to pep our boy up...He said it was the only thing he would eat...and I cooked it...must start taking back power again real soon!

Where's Ms Bath tonight then...in fact, she's been sloping off all day...

blossoming · 04/10/2010 21:29

A strange thing happened to me last week too rufus. I woke up one morning to find 21 emails, all scammy in my inbox. I've been averaging 50 a day since then. The only new place I gave my email address to was ASOS!

On a happier note, someone has bid on my Jimmy Choos! Auction ends tomorrow.

Forgot to say hard luck on the chicken pox dolcee.

traceybath, hope you survived inlaw visit. Come vent!!

eshermummy · 04/10/2010 21:29

oh god, am embarrassed to say I just had an M&S readymeal Blush. DH just called to say he would be another hour before he gets home so I caved in to the hunger Grin.

OK then, boots. I have a feeling none of these is going to be the one but here goes:

one

two

three

Have you tried GAP - I got a nice pair of short black bikers there last year for £70 iirc, not disimilar to the Kew ones above. I think someone said they were doing them again this year although not online.

Yes, where is Tracey?

eshermummy · 04/10/2010 21:50

studded

plain

chunkier

better uggs

LetThemEatCake · 04/10/2010 22:37

Oh Dolce they're just Primark ones, the ones I have in brown and in black ... look on FB, in L's b'day album, I'm wearing the back ones .. £15 and I've had nothing but compliments on them but I fear they are not for classy you

really sweet re; your ds Smile

LetThemEatCake · 04/10/2010 22:38

How annoying is this. I accidentally had my ASOS parcel sent to DH' s work address. Despite complaining about the huge box cluttering up his office all day Hmm he managed to forget to bring it home.....and is out with clients tomorrow night so now I won't get it till Wednesday night at the earliest Angry

It's got this in it, which is most probably a hideous polyester nightmare but could be a hidden gem. and I won't know till Wednesday now.......harrumph

eshermummy · 04/10/2010 23:09

pretty skirt Everything

happilyeverafter · 04/10/2010 23:21

That skirt is beautiful everything I love the shape and the colour

LetThemEatCake · 04/10/2010 23:21

really pretty EIE, Bargainous, too.

Now you;ve got me looking at ebay Angry

esher that is annoying.

dolce where are you going to look for sweater dress? I'm overwhelmed by the options ..

LetThemEatCake · 04/10/2010 23:24

lovely boots

LetThemEatCake · 04/10/2010 23:27

Camel is one thing, incipient camel toe is another ..

LetThemEatCake · 05/10/2010 00:43

I love this look am considering this top, what do you think? too exxy? so lovely!

vinvinoveritas · 05/10/2010 04:32

LTEC your camel quote has me in stitches
I am up with DS Hmm who has some alarmingly spikey temps I am fretting about what to do... thermometer usually under-records as well so maybe worse than the temp given..I don't want to be the crazy mum who panics too much. No calpol here so just giving him fluids and keep taking his temp

Anyway the zara trousers are a 'S' or '26'- I haven't gone through rest of the box of things to go yet but if anyone's interested there's a messaging function that I just discovered

ltec I can't open the exxy link dammit! My laptop + asos does not work

Can I just ask- does ash shoe sizing come up small or large?

vinvinoveritas · 05/10/2010 04:36

& are these hideous?

blossoming · 05/10/2010 06:42

vin, just saw your post, doctors appointment first thing? Hope you're okay.

traceybath · 05/10/2010 06:43

Am here - in-laws depart this morning.

Will post later - woke up in a panic about what to wear to meet-up.
