Party frocks ahoy! Avidly and wisely dressing ourselves for the party season!

[blossoming]

Sorry to hear about your dd dolcee. Hope things improve soon.
Glad to hear your family were better behaved this time ollie.

I wonder what an avid and wise Christmas party would be like. Where would we have it? What would you wear? (Complete fantasy obviously!)

bloody hell hf but I like the UO one so you are forgiven

Thanks for new look suggestion too pickled - will have a look at weekend.

So jealous of cake's afternoon!

Right, have had fun trying on outfits for tomorrow and have no less than 3 possibilities :

1. blue silky geometric print dress
2. black & emerald jersey geometric print dress
3. black lace & chiffon dress

am veering towards the lacey one but what to wear on bottom half? - it is rather short. Black opaques will make me look like a guest at hell's party, bare legs is unthinkable... have light grey leggings + black heels? Would that work?

hi all,

Janice update.

I have both the Navy (worn as evening dress for dinner) and the Stripey (not worn out of the house yet as in corporate dress all week so perhaps this weekend, need to decide where and how).

For some bizarre reason the Stripey looks 100 X better on me than the Navy.

I wear light grey leggings to work our mrsj. What's wrong with black?

To work out, mrsjuan.
I may be a little tipsy....

Would be black from head to toe if I went for lace dress (has chiffon arms a bit like <a class="break-all" href="//-www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=s2.thisnext.com/media/largest_dimension/4B98F190.jpg&imgrefurl=www.thisnext.com/tag/antik-batik-beach-bag/&usg=__jWlVqQW9uXvWcqEW59Bkri1YsiY=&h=380&w=380&sz=7&hl=en&start=0&zoom=1&tbnid=yz-yyOVavSsghM:&tbnh=151&tbnw=151&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dantik%2Bbatik%2Blace%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DX%26rlz%3D1G1GGLQ_ENUK360%26biw%3D1263%26bih%3D612%26tbs%3Disch:1&um=1&itbs=1&iact=hc&vpx=142&vpy=70&dur=1333&hovh=225&hovw=225&tx=156&ty=110&ei=KGfcTKCBLMmAhQfN-un_Dw&oei=KGfcTKCBLMmAhQfN-un_Dw&esq=1&page=1&ndsp=19&ved=1t:429,r:0,s:0" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">this ) think I need something to break it up.

Hi all

I too have joined Club Janice - stripey on its way to Chez Choo.

Will probably wear with cake boots which arrived today and fit.

Had good day today. Arrived at work to find that they have opened a Tiffany nearby. In the words of Audrey 'nothing bad ever happens in Tiffany'.

Also went to parents' evening where DD got a great report.

Have also started WW again this week - they have a new plan now which means wine has fewer points than most meals.

Hasbeens in November. You've got to admire her dedication to the fashion cause.

MRSJ I think all black would work.

Choo Is this the Points Plus thingy? I keep meaning to go back - it's the only thing that works for me (WW) as you can eat what you like!

Great day there choo. Do you really need WW?

Sarf London girls, watch out for my dh tomorrow. Early start to Greenwich. So early bed. Night all.

hf - tis Pro Points. I do online. They have changed the calculations so fruit is free. You get more points per day and seems more flexible. Will let you know how I go next week.

PS Am desperate to know your scandal!! You are such a tease

Choo Thanks for that.

I know nothing

New SW is supposed to be good too - lots of women at work are losing loads on it.

Also have darker grey leggings - not convinced about all black -looks a bit Morticia.
Will sleep on it, night all

Oooh dear. Ended night with drinks with friends in Brixton after sashimi in restaurant where I met dh.

In cab, possibly drunk

Good reaction to Mellonhead

Will be world's best mother tomorrow. Promise!!

Night!

Roary - you made me laugh so much with your mugging comment - DH thought something was wrong with me

LTEC - hope you're head and hair are fabulous this morning.

Tis cold here again - am very tired after nice evening last night.

Please post pic of Mellonhead cake! Glad you had a fab night out.

could someone pls direct me to the comment about which you're talking?

glad you had a good night tracey

In the Mumsy thread, LTEC, about 2/3 through.

Glad you had a lovely afternoon & evening!
