Good luck NJC!

Good luck NJC!

Red I thought, but forgot to type in that your outfit sounded lovely, especially with a loose plait.

Chortle at dying fly.

Xmas pressie for W & A DP??

pickledsiblings · 02/11/2011 12:52

Hey Red, I tried to wear my hair in a loose side plait today but sadly it's too short. I am wearing it partially back a la Kate Winslet instead Smile. Can you link to your H & M coat please as I appear to have missed it first time round.

notyummy · 02/11/2011 12:59

Silk/cashmere jumpers at JL here - great value!

FritziGreenEyes · 02/11/2011 13:08

I have serious loose side plait envy

dolceebanana · 02/11/2011 13:50

Hello!
Lovely treat from DH of these shoes . To wear with evening dresses, and also with Tux, cigarette trews combo.
Back from half term hols - was lovely for DCs to spend time with Grandparents in France.

Hope everyone is well.

redllamayellowllama · 02/11/2011 14:33

Pickled - I'm not sure our hair is that different in length - I start a french plait to one side and bring it round to the other, letting lots of my layers fall out at random. The end of it then reaches the top of my boob. Here's the pea coat, it really is lovely and a steal with the 50% off code (9536). I bought the 10 as it's quite close fitting across the shoulders.

Sublime to the ridiculous: A Level all day, now I'm in a primary school's after school club. Give me strength!

blossoming · 02/11/2011 17:59

the perfect crisp white shirt arrived. It is, um, perfect. If you're in the market for one ollie, or if you're still looking dolcee, it is pure brilliant white; has great double buttons, so you can look half and half, and looks great with the Boden merino silver cardigan from the summer on top. So thrilled. I have been without a white shirt for years since my Jigsaw one gave up the ghost. The replacement I got wasn't white enough. Very happy indeed.

blossoming · 02/11/2011 18:01

Wow dolcee, great shoes. You are going to look stunning.

FritziGreenEyes · 02/11/2011 19:15

njc Wohoo, I knew you'd wow them. Sooo exciting!

dolcee Glad you are back, missed your posts. Those shoes are F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S. Did DH also give you some chrome polish for the heels? Wink

bloss Wearing a crisp white shirt never fails to make me feel good. Yours is perfect!

annie Wow that is an impressive oven. What will the first meal you be cooking? Couldn't try new rice cooking method today as DD requested quinoa.

notyummy Have you joined the Christmas shoppers? I have some presents sitting on the top of my shelf already

Ah, shirts, my long time nemeses. They are no friend of the larger busted lady I fear. Always wished I could pull them off though

In stark contrast to fritzi's super sophisticated DD we have my DS. I came down from putting the baby to bed to find he had stripped naked and was stamping about in a kind of haka slapping his bits and laughing. Sigh.

Not at my most stylish today, wearing metallic chunky knit jumper from Gap, skinnies and these. I'll get my coat, shall I? In my defence they are unbelievably comfy...

Glad it went well, NJC

Lovely shoes dolce, I am lusting after
