Carrie my mother recently gave me a pair of navy suede loafers (classic low circa 1" heel) she had bought in the 1990s/early 2000s in Italy but never worn. They are fantastic quality and very middle-aged easy to wear, and I'm happy I've been able to give them a new life. But they feel preppy and I'm not preppy. I think I recognize your 1994 shoes -my Prada lookalikes were aubergine-colored, fantastically ugly and painfully high

Decam really close call, but have to go with the Prada!
Sleep love the Marant monty, and the Duffy and our group homage to orange .
Carrie it will be so warm, it will be divine. I went way back when, as a student in Boston. Flew from the freezing cold snow to sunshine. So nice.

I've had a try-on and think I will wear the Whistles jacket, with dark skinnys, a white tee, leopard print ballet pumps and the red Dvf bag.
The Gigi's finally arrived today, and they're going straight back 
The black and white, is more like black and cream... and cream makes me look ill.
The blue is lovely, but I think i'd like to try the next size up and i'm not willing to pay another £18 in delivery costs, so I'll wait and try them in an actual shop.
I've had another delivery...
This is cotton and lovely for £20
Cheap £7 grey tee
This is cotton again, but 2 inches longer than the grey, looked daft on me so will be returned.
Canvas bag it was £20 in the sale and will do for park and zoo trips. It's big enough to fit a picnic in and cheap enough not to worry about spillages.
I vote for the Coach bag Decameron, it's beautiful.

Oh shop what a nightmare about SP! Hope you're getting in under the wire.
Anni am hoping to pick up some Gigis when in Florida, thinking animal print as had pretendy ones last summer and wore them to death. But of course now want to check out the blue...
Foxy 5am [laughs hysterically]. I'm already kicking up a fuss about having to get to H'row for 6am for our flights! No way could I get up early to put myself through the torture of a run!
Marsha I grew up in Miami (well we moved when I was 10, but my brother stayed - he's moved to Texas now though - bleugh), so I try to go back as often as possible. Seems since having the children, we've settled into a bit of an Easter routine. Can't wait for some snow crab claws....
