We are Avidly snapping up Primarni brogues, whilst Wisely swapping (for charidee!) our unwanted clothes...

[notyummy]

This way ladies....

yangymac, can you see this link?. If not you'll have to search the BR website for 5 pocket herringbone legging. They are fab-u-lous.

Just a quickie before I catch-up but Waitrose Deliver has it christmas slots available.

Ah bunny tis hard I know. So damn far. Plus I found pg and baby stage kicked in some huge desire to be with family. But I don't want to bring us down so will say your baby girls are so wonderful it is worth it. Would love to have twin girls.

Fleecy those cls are excellent and would look stunning on you. I have VW pirate boots in suede beige (from Liberty and no longer on NAP site). I like them although beige suede is quite difficult. Also be careful re fakes, I noticed some cheap ones online that must have been fake but I haven't checked the hervia one.

TraceY - thanks for reminder re Waitrose. For those of us using Ocado, email invitations for Christmas slots go out next week. I will be reserving one pronto!

Some Matches reductions

Bunny Thanks for reminder re Ocado. I usually ignore those emails!

Ladies - thanks for advice. Have managed to find suitable plain short jacket and scarf so good to go!

DH just home with huge bouquet, this bracelet - what's not to love...pretty and for a good cause?! PLUS a voucher for a weekend away here. Spoiled, me? Err, maybe

Fleecy - Those CLs are bea-u-ti-ful.

I am rubbish at remembering who has said what or linked to this or that.

Anyway NY glad you have your outfit sorted. Sounds great. Your dh is sure a good 'un! Also glad you got the Elms booked

Evening lovely ladies!

Haven't caught up properly but Carciofi sorry to hear you're feeling a bit down. I've been thinking of you and luxe accessories . Firstly Cakey and I have this charcoal travelwrap it is perfect for pregnancy and afterwards, just gorgeous. I remember you have some DKNY cosys so thought you might like one of these. I'd love one in navy and the damson colour too

Then I started thinking about scarves.<a class="break-all" href="http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=cdn2.ioffer.com/img/item/112/870/831/D0REnR7HCJkMgOY.jpg&imgrefurl=www.ioffer.com/offer_transactions/show/10074893&usg=__3kAP10pEsC2bTw_PByYPzWUPx2U=&h=580&w=479&sz=73&hl=en&start=0&sig2=HjiZLkdpwW-Y1maPWcLgxA&zoom=1&tbnid=CK_2dD979_43XM:&tbnh=141&tbnw=118&ei=E524TNvbKcmFswbTioHCDQ&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dlouis%2Bvuitton%2Brose%2Bscarf%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DX%26biw%3D1093%26bih%3D692%26tbs%3Disch:1&um=1&itbs=1&iact=rc&dur=588&oei=E524TNvbKcmFswbTioHCDQ&esq=1&page=1&ndsp=24&ved=1t:429,r:4,s:0&tx=49&ty=80" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">this louis vuitton rose one is the one I lust over I'm sure when I get my hands on one it'll be Lilly & who??? Failing that any of the spouse scarves would do. I think we probably suit similar colours.

Also been thinking about Hermes - must be getting old , what with that and my new love of navy. Been reading this I've got no chance of getting anywhere near a Hermes stockist anytime soon though. Choo Roman do you have any, not sure if it's for me really but some of the pieces are just beautiful.

Then I started thinking about a <a class="break-all" href="http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=www.pursepage.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/10/hermes_constance.jpg&imgrefurl=www.pursepage.com/hermes-handbags/hermes-constance.html&h=220&w=216&sz=6&tbnid=g0FiRdlBc-1KqM:&tbnh=107&tbnw=105&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dhermes%2Bconstance%2Bbag&zoom=1&q=hermes+constance+bag&hl=en&usg=__o3MkzutoyELia_ziJuVeT8z798Q=&sa=X&ei=YZ64TOGYIc_Lswb6qZG7DQ&sqi=2&ved=0CCwQ9QEwBA" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Hermes constance bag and then I decided I should stop before I get on the route to totally bankrupting myself (all in the name of research for you!)

Happy anniversary notyummy your DH really is a good 'un isn't he!

Popping on quickly to say that am still hoing to make it to the meet-up tomorrow (altho' not spoken to DH yet or confirmed that he will have sole charge of the dd's but fingers crossed he is not working....)
Rl been a bit hectic, hence am behind with the thread - dd's just gone to bed so am looking forward to catching up.
Hangover from hell today (booze book-club last night).
Not sure what I will be wearing to meet-up - wore new black jodphur leggingy things last night with wedge ankle boots and thin striped long sleeved tee - am not really quite tall enough or slim enough of thigh to carry the look off but may chance it tomorrow. Not sure about coat yet - wore navy military-ish Sonia Rykiel for first time this year last night but might be a bit hot for Selfro's/tube but if I wear short leather jacket there is no arse-coverage in my outfit and I think I need some!
I know what Bunny and Choo look like from last time so am hoping I will find you. Am just worried that I don't know how to pronounce Bloss's surname correctly!
Right, off to catch up properly/enjoy all links etc.

No Hermes here Zembo, though when we lived in Switz I used to gaze in awe at all the people horse riding with Hermes saddles, bridles, riding boots, jackets, you name it. Fabulously elegant, but I've always associated the label with the kind of people who have homes in Monte Carlo, St Moritz and Paris, or Park Avenue grannies. Mind you there are some fantastically posh, uber chic terrifying yummy mummies at school - ap was gawping at the Kelly bags at football practice last week. I mean can you imagine having a Kelly, let alone taking it to a muddy field??

Fabulous shoes Fleecy but I would never be able to walk in those. I can't do mega-high heels unless they have ankle straps. Would you be able to enjoy wearing them? Nothing worse than a shoe that looks amazing in front of the mirror at home, but then ruins your evening it's so uncomfy.

(Hey, did you see I just said 'a shoe'. Maybe I'm becoming a fashion ponce )

esher, just look for the Welsh girl with her bum to the wall! Really though, just say what you see (phonetic, Welsh).

Happy anniversary notyummy! How long has it been?

Happy anniversary notyummy! Have a lovely evening, your DH is a star, such lovely presents.

Have a lovely time tomorrow ladies!

DH still doing his race but first thing tomorrow we're looking at a barn that needs converting. DH already mentioning living in a caravan and Mr McCloud - ha ha ha ha ha. Having a glass of wine to recover from my hysterics.

Esher you are teeny tiny so do not believe you need any bum coverage

Bloss - you constantly amaze me In a good way obviously.

LTEC - tricksy situation - I'd feel the same as you undoubtedly.

NY Happy Anniversary! I thought your dh was just a top guy and did this every weekend!

Zembo I have a classic black Hermes Belt, several scarves and twillys. That's all my budget can stretch to. One scarf a 21st Birthday present!

The thing I lust after most is a Chanel 'Suit'. Seriously.

As part of hangover recovery plan I have today consumed a mountain of hot buttered toast (mmmmm) and have just polished off an entire family size bag of Dairy Milk Caramel Nibbles . I now feel sick

Tracey - at caravan living - where would you store your clothes for the duration? An already converted barn sounds lovely though.......

Bloss - thanks for your message, will put number in my phone

Cake just read back re: your friends wedding - is it possible that they've forgotten the significance of the date? Planning a wedding is hard with a million and one things to remember and perhaps they've just overlooked something which is so poignant for you. I'd actually mention it (in the nicest possible way) well before the wedding to get it all out in the open so there's no bad feelings on anyones part re: this on the day.
On another note, did your Marc Jacobs coat arrive today?

Roman my life is a million miles away from the Monte Carlo set was thinking more along the lines of hf

Sorry for misunderstanding. Absolutely would not and do not expect my friends to know of relevance of date, although obv they know that we got married in same place as they were at our wedding (and as venue used our images without our knowledge for their next batch of promotional literature, this is what our friends were sent LOL!!)
No absolutely nothing to do with them. Just that I struggle a little with the idea of being at that place on that date, that's all.

fleecy I love the CLs a gazillion times more than the VWs which I am somewhat about. Think if you are going to have a spendy shoe it needs to be a classic, unless you have molto dinero, that is.

At least I still have my Choo Tizzys, eh zembo?
