following on from bunny's festive lead ....

could this be my LRD????

Cake I nearly linked to this one about 20 minutes ago but didn't want to tempt you .

both of those dresses are polyester

Have not had time to catch up properly yet I'm afraid - got too much rl hassle to sort before can read thtread at leisure and enjoy all links. Am hoping will all be done by tonight so can indulge in thread once dd's in bed

but quickly, LTEC , LRD - I have this one languishing in my wardrobe. Worn once . If you like it I can bring it on Sunday. Size 8 but quite a generous 8. I don't quite have either the legs (it's pretty short) or the shoulders for it (top looks slightly too oversized on me).

esher really? that's so kind. I'd love to give it a whirl. Can try on in loos on Sunday and give you ££ on the spot. Thank you!!

I've arrived. Three hours later!

Where are you bloss? How many miles have you gone?

Hello.

Well after a trying start to the day with me getting very cross with eldest dc - we then ventured into town and had a lovely time. All dc's beautifully behaved and had one of those smug moments which I rather enjoyed as they are few and far between when I have all 3 with me

Zembo - I whizzed into Russell & Bromley in homage to Bloss and bought these They looked good with my skinnies - could they work for you perhaps?

Bloss - oh dear nightmare journey!

Romana - tall, elegant and scary sounds fab to me

I suppose you've seen these, Zembo?

These? Or these? Or these? Or these?

oooooh no, I don't want any ££ for it.
If it fits and you like it's yours
will bring on sunday

quick q - these have just arrived. They have a certain snuggly charm but am wondering whether I should have got the black? I got the brown in order to justify further boots purchase but am now thinking black = better. All my other ankle boots are black, I wear a lot of grey and black. Brown boots look a bit funny with grey don't they?

VIPSALE for 25% off Kurt Geiger. Anyone know if the Sadlers have a true shearling lining or just fluffy fabric?

esher, I'm sure you know my opinion on grey and brown together!

What a day. I was the one throwing random items into my trolley then collapsing in a heap in, look away now, McDonalds (where there were mums I knew, so had company!)
Then back roads to s'sburys, main road still closed, where I got my Christmas wine, smoked salmon and liquid glucose. Will buy everything else foody, locally.

About to sit down and open one of the wines!

Bloss - I was wondering today - you do speak Welsh don't you? And I have such an image of you as this beacon of S&B amongst the school mums

Tracey - those boots are lovely! Will you be wearing them on sunday

Bloss am guessing you are not a fan of brown and grey together no?

Mumsnut I don't know about the lining of the sadlers but they look good. I ordered a black pair of biker Uggs this afternoon (should be here tomorrow) - can I face ordering the KG's too and comparing?
What colour are you thinking of btw?

What was the consensus on meet-up attire btw ladies?

Esher I am feeling very fat so may well be wearing a tent

How was the my-wardrobe gilet?

tracey, the mums in McDs today look like they eat every meal there. They are big, and have the biggest personalities! I must admit it's them I hang out with on mum's group night out though!
I do dress differently from local people though. A bit more grown up (but I am much older). When I was in school Jigsaw and Next had just opened in Chester. I shopped in Jigsaw, my friends were in Next!
We all speak Welsh. My town has the highest percentage of Welsh speakers anywhere. It's like 80%.

me too tracey - I've just eaten my own body weight in biscuits. I'm not sure about the rest of my outfit but one thing is for sure - SPANX

bloss - is grey and brown really really bad?

esher, there is no brown in a winter or summer palette where grey belongs!

Hells - I've just mine in the washing machine

Bloss - thats amazing!

I've sold all my brown stuff hells!
