Beating the January Blues by Following our Wise & Avid (Roxy) Rules

[OllieinOrange]

Best I could come up with......

emo Hope the DCs recover from their nasty bugs soon. I miss your posts!

every Fab outfit! Can you cycle in a fishtail skirt!?

carciofi Yay for new babysitter. Very wise words from roary and many others. My mother keeps on telling me how easy being a Mum is compared to "the old times". She conveniently forgets that my dad came home at 4:30 in the afternoon every day!

bloss That Acne dress would be perfect for you! Although I think it is £££ for 100% polyester.

Also meant to say well done zembo and red for mastering swimming and driving! It gives me such a thrill when I realize there is still room for development and learning new things.

Love all the fancy dress talk .

After our holiday and spending the most time together ever since DD was born, I miss DH and DD...

Love the Maxi version Ollie, but it would need to halve in price at least!!

Ok, shall we do another one of ese and see which has the most attendees:

10th:
Red

17th:
Red

Ollie I think you should order the dress. It's the style you like in a colour you like and if it doesn't work, send it back. Roxy Rules.

Order the dress ollie! It's stunning.

Ollie, yes, order it!

The 10th is my mum's anniversary so it would be a nice distraction to meet you all.

Thanks, I am over the guilt. My dad always worked long hours and my mother had a lot of help with us.

Out of pajamas and now wearing black skinny Hudsons and violet Jigsaw top again. Still in slippers.

I wore some very short miniskirts indeed when I was younger and leather trousers, which I loved. I still have them but unfortunately they are bootcut.

I am freaking out ..have only just managed to catch up with old thread and now the new one(thanks ollie )..you are flying through this one already.

I can't even begin to acknowledge everyone's words of wisdom re-marriage,babies and er..scifi!

love both the acne dress and the HL..completely gorgeous.

have broken the news to DH that MU takes precedence over his birthday so yay! I can make the 17th..can also do 10th if that helps?

will try and come back later today to post..first week back at school so it's rush,rush again

Just got thoroughly over-excited about the Toast leather jacket going in the sale, then realised it is collarless

I loved what I wore in my 20s. Anything I liked, was good fun. Fell into an office hole in late 20s (Covent Garden shops mostly), then started buying nicer stuff but not entirely happy... £500 Georgina Goodman boots, ok in style but some sort of suction thing meant dh had to take them off .

Ollie that dress is very you.

Can someone relink ollie's dress? Gah, work getting in the way...

One minute to lesson start. Hair has gone curly. What to do??

Would love to do MU but feels too presumptuous having just delurked. Maybe next time

Ooh, Ash boots are here!

Hopefully you should come, not presumptuous at all. It was nearly a year on thread before I met (nearly) everyone and I wish it had been done sooner.

Have you ordered that dress yet Ollie?!

Hopefully, it would be great if you could make it.

Carciofi I do quite like this bag .

Have had rather industrious morning at home with DD...hopefully the older darlings have had a nice day at school. Ds (5 and a half) is extremely stubborn at the moment, and prone to hysterics at the thought of being made to do anything which he considers unfair: i.e. going to bed, getting dressed, eating anything that does not look like Spaghetti Bolognese. I thought 2 year olds did that? DD1 is an Angel in comparison (thankfully), and DD2, who is actually 2, just states that her 'bruvver is be'in vewwy nawty'.....

Browsing holidays- under instruction from dh that abroad it must be....for main hols he suggests Italy....where to start? Have done Puglia (didn't much care for); Anyone on here done the Scott Dunne thing....? Or suggest fab hotels - must be coast...I still fancy Ile de Re (France) but dh unsure....we want a bit of luxury, either hotel or villa with good food, and will have three little ones in tow.

Very quickly rushing in to say that annie I have laughed so much at your PVC/Fancy dress talk.

Back later.

Oh andollie, get the HL.

okay,cake in oven,dd2 sitting in front of Abney and Teal with chocolate all around her mouth..

rufus sorry if I've told you before but your posts always make me laugh,would love to see you at a meetup.

carciofi bolder holders hardly!thanks for info.glad you have returned.

blue I am very short(under 5 foot) and tried on the
zara sequins

well it would have been rude not too but unfortunately swamped me,could be the same for you?
yesterday I wore

this zara skirt
..looks much better in RL,with a black milk tray man polo(old silk Jasper Conran from work days),black opaques and calvin Klein ankle boots with small heel(first work shoes I bought so v old

today it was so dark I had same boots on but navy tights(thought they were black)with grey and black oasis leopard print dress bought last year,worn it loads.

think at some point we may need to bite the bullet and do fancy dress MU..bagsy I get to be an oompa loompa

hopefully do come..you'll have a ball!
