Oh pants - only size 3 left - don't suppose you have tiny feet? here

mrsjuan · 09/12/2010 21:23

Oh, and they're brown. Ignore me!

blossoming · 09/12/2010 21:25

Great news re Gap skinnies notyummy. A 4!! Amazing.
zembo, I'm sure you'll have a wonderful time. Warm too I'd imagine!
fritzi, did you get your glow back today?
Have you all decided what you're wearing on Sunday?

Thanks Mrs J but I want black ones as already have brown. I do have tiny feet though - 3.5/36.

Bloss weather lovely at the moment, about 24C. It's a complete chill out holiday, fully looked after - labour is cheap so have housekeeper/cook/cleaner living in with us.

traceybath · 09/12/2010 21:30

Sorry did somebody speak? Wink

Well think I'm going to wear my grey leopard print jersey dress which is my default going out outfit at the moment. I may be a tad overdressed but hey ho Wink

Bloss ? book of biscuits is a keeper I would say!

Bunny ? hurrah for weight gains ? you must feel so much better.

Tracey ? I watched Nigella too?very tempted by everything actually! I?m on a protein only day and it always seems to co-incide with watching cookery programmes Sad. It?s DS?s last day t/m ? he is so very excited!

Wow ? so many had found their fashion way by 22. I must admit that although I was dressed like a drudge ? in my mid twenties I suddenly discovered the joys of partying and my teenage years started then - I more than made up for previously sensible ways (this ended abruptly when I got pregnant Grin)

Had DS?s church concert today and we?ve got the school play t/m and then his holidays start. He enjoyed the concert so much he actually skipped most of the way home. Somehow, if it?s at all possible, because he is so naturally cool (unlike me) he didn?t get many strange looks for his crazy skipping!

I had a rather useless delivery today?a Joseph black dress that I was hoping would be perfect for Sunday?but no ? too short for my old legs. Even with opaques. And some shoes that my feet actually spilled out of?! Nice look.

tethersjinglebellend · 09/12/2010 21:40

Zembo- these are nice, but maybe not what you're after?

hellsbelles · 09/12/2010 21:40

bloss - at the moment we may possibly match on Sunday. Now that my planned Joseph dress has turned out to be completely wrong I'm wearing a grey/black stripped jumper dress. I realise I must not wear the edelmans (even though they are my only decent shoe Grin) so I will be wearing either short ankle boots or pirate boots - depending on the cold.

tethersjinglebellend · 09/12/2010 21:41

Or these?

hellsbelles · 09/12/2010 21:41

err - just to explain Bloss - I only meant we may match cause of the stripes Grin

LetThemEatCake · 09/12/2010 21:47

urgh how annoying. Had urgent request to rewrite something today as original submission was "too sexy" (story of my life!! Wink Grin) so I have skipped the party, stayed at home to write, sent it off and had an out of office until monday auto-reply!!! so why the rush??

bah.

sunday - poss leopard print silk sleeveless blouse and black skinny trousers, poss bag over head. Dipende.

traceybath · 09/12/2010 21:48

Oh how annoying LTEC but love the fact you are too sexy Grin

LetThemEatCake · 09/12/2010 21:52

you know - some people just have it Wink

oh btw - randomness. My beloved Belstaffs. A lovely boot, no? Rarely noted, nor complimented. My new abominable snowman boots? Loved by all!! Go figure.

Also lots of public love for the warehouse swallow blouse. I think the unremovable stain has given it a certain je ne sais quoi.

yup - if you are going to get crit it could be worse that to be too sexy Grin...however that is pretty crap about out of office...shall we give them the benefit of the doubt and assume a colleague will check mail t/m and find newly improved unsexy article?

I did love that warehouse blouse. I wish I could have kept mine.

LetThemEatCake · 09/12/2010 22:03

hmm, think I am also annoyed as if out would have skipped dinner but bc home and slothful have eaten evil canellini beans Angry

Yes but hells my lack of bustage means that I will never successfully wear VWA. So it's swings and roundabouts eh!Wink

OP posts:
hellsbelles · 09/12/2010 22:04

Oh no - I didn't mean that. No way - I just meant your total slimness.

hellsbelles · 09/12/2010 22:05

is 'slimness' a word?

LetThemEatCake · 09/12/2010 22:07

oh god no, nothing you said - just my own realisation - based on how good tracey looked in hers, how good Choo looked - you need a certain va va to carry them off I think and my shrunken upper isn't it - also how they look on the modules on NAP/ m-w ... not for pears. C'est la vie!

OP posts:
mrsjuan · 09/12/2010 22:07

Have you seen the dress version of the swallow print blouse?

LetThemEatCake · 09/12/2010 22:08

speaking of Choo - no I won't see you at Nobu - different nights! But think we should go there together sometime!

where is hf??

OP posts:
LetThemEatCake · 09/12/2010 22:09

notyummy · 09/12/2010 22:10
