A decent tailor could do that for you Novice, no problem.

BrandyAlexander · 07/02/2013 19:04

Oooh brilliant, thank you Anni!

AmberNectarine · 07/02/2013 19:12

Some nice leather leggings in the new Baukjen catalogue.

BrandyAlexander · 07/02/2013 19:45

Hhmmm thanks Amber! That and Helmut Lang top could be a winner for me.

Sleepwhenidie · 07/02/2013 21:28

Thanks for the Baujken tip Amber - have just taken a look at the catalogue and they do look nice, but think I prefer the MiH's, more trousery and I really like the colour which is somewhere between navy and charcoal. Any view on buying tighter than is really comfortable to allow for stretch or not?

QueenCadbury · 07/02/2013 21:48

I can't keep up with you all. I thought I was an avid shopper until I met you guys Grin.

If any of you are after basic cotton tshirts then I recommend this. I buy a lot of my tshirts from DP as they're a good length and wash well and I've just bought the navy.

AmberNectarine · 07/02/2013 22:15

Yes, I saw the MiH ones in Matches, gorgeous colour and so soft. I'd get them to fit, but that's because I won't wear anything a bit to tight as I feel fat and it bothers me. I don't think they are supposed to stretch. Hopefully will know more than me.

I also saw your Helmut top novice (Jesus, I've seen everything, haven't I?) and it is lovely. I plan on getting a couple of the s/s Helmut tees for summer. I love the shape. My summer wardrobe plan is those/T by AW muscle tanks, ankle skimmer jeans (Goldsign, natch) and some really fab sandals (Balenciaga arenas are the current frontrunners) or Charles Philip slipper flats.

Goodness The Outnet sell out quickly......the Michael Kors knit i pinned and you commented on amber has gone after only 5hrs!!!!teach me for dithering!

Annianni · 08/02/2013 08:23

Things do go quick on the outnet Drywhite, you should always order when you spot something nice.

And definitely don't post a link to something on here, before you've ordered it.

I'm wearing the Goldsign frontier crop today. They are really stretchy, it doesn't feel like i'm wearing jeans.

shopafrolic · 08/02/2013 09:10

Good news - Houlihans fit and the length is much better but the cream are awful, the fabric is quite thin so you can see the pockets through the front of the jeans so they have to go back. So now I need to find some Houlihans but in a darker colour!
But these are great

MarshaBrady · 08/02/2013 09:16

They're great Shop. Thought the cream might be see through! Good about length.

Well, I've taken the plunge and started a little blog. Still completely embryonic though!

MarshaBrady · 08/02/2013 11:13

Excellent Amber! I was thinking that you'd have A Wang sending freebies in no time at all. I like his motto for his clothes too incidentally, saw it on pin.

Pm link or link here?

shopafrolic · 08/02/2013 11:20

Great news Amber. Would love to see it too!!!

cathyandclaire · 08/02/2013 11:22

Lurker here asking for Blog details please!!
I love reading this thread, so many gorgeous links and fabulous ideas :)

AmberNectarine · 08/02/2013 11:38

Think I'll have to PM to avoid a wrist slap. As I say it is very embryonic - it will improve!

shopafrolic · 08/02/2013 11:44

PM away Amber I'm chomping at the bit!

Mrsap · 08/02/2013 11:46
