Would people mind updating their S&B threads, if they can ...

[Tillyscoutsmum]

Please ?

I love S&B. I love virtually shopping and virtually spending other people's money. Sometimes the OP will say they like some of my choices. Sometimes they hate them. Either is fine but I want to know what they decided to buy (if anything).

I admit I am a nosey sod with no life but I want to know what you ended up wearing to your wedding/christening/night out/black tie do.

So, can you please update your threads. Even if you come on and say you hated everything and ended up buying something totally different.

An S&B thread with no conclusion is like watching an episode of Grand Designs where they ran out of money and didn't finish the house.

Thank you

Tulle you are truly gorgeous! lovely pics.

Ooh, will go and do this now. I wondered about getting back to people on my last S&B question, but I htought it was too boring and nerdy....and also it takes me so long to decide on buying sthg, that people would have forgotten about it.

Don't think you were on that one tillyscoutsmum, but will go and check.

Gosh ladies, you are making me blush! But thank you for your kind words as I don't have a great deal of confidence.

I never would have bought that dress without a little encouragement from the S&B ladies. I always find red difficult but biting the bullet and trying it on made me realise that it really is about finding the perfect shade/tone for you.

Definitely a keeper :)

Tulpe you also fit the category of 'chic brunette' on my other thread :)

You look wonderful Tulpe!

Tulpe you look wonderful! Like a magazine shot

Oh I agree! And please whilst you're at it, could you acknowledge the people who have taken time to advise on something that you've asked, instead of totally ignoring them and bumping gums with those people that you know/who's advice you prefered/like more.

Thanks!

Oh Tulpe, you looked amazing! I love red, and it really suits you :) What shoes/sandals did you wear? Can't make out if you have any on in the pic!

Thanks for the reminder - I shall indeed go back and update my responders (or should that be respondees?) as to what I've bought.

Hopefully lots of people who didn't actually see the thread first time round will give me some extra help as I'm still struggling!

MrsMeow - we were barefoot for the entire holiday! Usually I wear flat strappy gold leather flats though with that dress.

Tulpe - you look wonderful

Bet that did you feet the world of good, sand is great for buffing dry skin off! Gold flats sound lovely - think I'll hunt out a red maxi this year. It took me so long to find one last year that it was the end of the summer before I settled for one. It's still in my wardrboe with the tags on

Tulpe you look amazing Your dh really came up trumps there, lucky you!

tilly - yes, my mum was the East-buyer. She ended up with a gray dress from East, but she was happy and I now have a big list of good places to take her next time she wants something (and a few for me, too!).

belligerent - Ok then!

I bought:
a shedload of MAC stuff (tinted moisturiser, concealer, eyeliner, creme eyeshadow, powder eyeshadow, blusher ...). A couple of new eye pencils (forget where in Boots), couple of new nail polish colours. And some decent brushes! I need to buy new hair stuff now I think, since the Big Hair Wonder Thingy isn't doing that much for me and I suspect I need more product-y stuff. (Yes, I am going to try the Argan oil stuff).

My credit card is tired now and it sounds quite little when I write it down!

LRD, I remember you shopping with your mum, hope you looked great and had a lovely time

Tulle, I am SOOOOOjealous of your holiday.and you look fab. I don't think you should do the same thing for DHs 40th though. Do something totally different , like going on safari and in a hot air balloon over the seregeti . The re run is never quite the same

Note to self: buy red maxi. You look wonderful tulpe.

Seconded, blossoming! Bloody hell, tulpe, I am sooo envious. You look stunning.

(And thanks Kristina - we had a lovely time and I did edge mum towards trying on some other stuff than East, so it's progress!)

Oooh - tulpe, you look AMAZING.

I've wanted to go forever to the Maldives (particularly after a colleague spent a week cruising on a yacht around there and told us tales of fresh seafood, swimming in warm waters and generally being happy) and that gave me the impetus to send DP pictures "for your consideration" (he apparently doesn't like island holidays). Let's see if it works ...

What a great idea!

I asked for opinions on a few items a personal shopper got me to buy last November.

I didn't keep any of them. Back went the Wallis leather skirt, the Mango fur gilet (it was the womble comment that did it!) and the phase eight dress. I don't regret not keeping them.

Howmanytimes - I have a suspicion I made the womble comment [grin[

LRD - well done you! What's the Mac concealer like?

I started an s&b thread once. I updated in great detail about my trip to h&m. But in that case I think nobody cared.

Wasn't it you with the maxi dress thread? We ALL cared! :)

Well remembered Ghoul.

Oh SOH you are being a monkey - I still smile at the thought of your puddling dress
