All welcome to talk style and beauty

Thanks Dry - we'll know by Tuesday lunchtime

Hi all! Hope you have had lovely Sundays. drywhite your evening sounds fun! Thankfully I managed to keep sickness at bay through a mega busy weekend. The dcs do activities every Saturday morning, we eat out and usually come home. Yesterday we had a family party in the afternoon and then dh were at the theatre last night. Today dd had a dance performance, 2 shows, which basically took up the whole day and then we were making Easter decorations for the playroom and their bedrooms. Ds has finally fallen asleep a few mins ago so i can collapse into bed now!

Last Easter we were at centre Parcs, it was bloody freezing and I decided its not for me We actually went again at the end of the summer so we are doing that again this year. In the meanwhile, we are going away next month for 2 weeks. I would like some new summer clothes but its really hard to feel inspired when its so cold!! I so wish I was as imaginative as some of you who have been pinning spring/summer clothes for weeks!!

I love CP, we went 4 times last year! The kids adore it and I like the spa, only poor old DH who gets a bum deal, but he likes to see us all happy and his brother lives near Longleat so we always drop in for some brotherly bonding time.

Got Matches and My-Wardrobe orders arriving tomorrow - feels like Christmas!!

My head is a bit but nothing neurofen and lots of tea can't handle.....In my advanced years I've started drinking water after midnight ( when I remember!) and that is a great help the following morning.

I am in shock! After a weeki just tried on the oasis dress I bought last week. Have never taken a dress of so quickly. Straight into the "what the hell was I thinking?" hall of fame! I can't actually find it to link but hideous on me, just hideous!

Amber 4 times?! You must go when it's cold! we are going abroad in 4 weeks time. 5 star hotel, we're staying in a 2 bed villa with a pool for 12 nights. Guaranteed hot weather. Business class flights free with air miles. Last week of August we are off to CP. 2 bed villa for 7 nights. Probably dodgy weather. The cost of the two holidays is about the same!

Yep, CP is ridiculously expensive. This year is the first time we've been since the kids started school (used to go at least once a year before then) as Bristol has had different school holidays to the rest of the country so we've managed to take advantage of slightly cheaper prices. We also had an inset day on Friday so were able to get here early and use the facilities all day. Off home today though. I absolutely love it. One of the things I love is lazing around in sweatpants and no make up (shall I leave the thread now??)

Novice, I must say that I prefer the sound of the first holiday!

Hope it is good news tomorrow, Shop, I will cross my fingers and toes.

I've just pinned loads of things and still hovering over ordering the Ash. Already have bowies in red/black and navy and virgins in prune and black. Still, I need a light colour, don't I???

Me too I would love some guaranteed hot weather.

Go for it Decam.

Good luck for tomorrow Shop.

Ah and congratulations on new belt Sleep and fabbo re Spain.

Quite cute in rose too Decam

Ugh. Don't feel well.I am at home. Fingers crossed for your dh today, Shop.

The pink is pretty Shop.
Good luck to you and Mr Shop.

Hope you feel better soon Novice.

Oooh, I like the pink. Hopefully My-W will stock them as have loyalty points.

Get well soon, Novice.

I done a bad thing. I ordered these.

Wow wow wow Amber - shoe envy

Love them Amber, perfect for you.

Fabulous, Amber!

wow amber, gorgeous!

shop fingers crossed for you. job stuff is so stressful.

still feeling grotty today, thanks for all the well wishes

well I managed to overcome my ebay paranoia by negotiating a seller right down on a barely worn celine silk A line skirt. fingers crossed it all goes smoothly otherwise I will NEVER use ebay again. I actually dreamed about the damn skirt last night had have come up with lots of different outfits already, haha. thinking grey marl tee and silver sandals when it finally warms up, and with grey cashmere jumper, grey opaques and jalouse while it's still freezing.

further to the above... I have silver havianas but also debating some silver gigis. they'll be £43 with quidco cashback - which reminds me, I actually got cashback for all my style passport purchases, how mad is that? had written it all off as a lost cause.

what's everyone wearing today? I am wrapped up in the olive cable knit cashmere again, with distressed boyfriends.

Silver sandals v versatile foxy, I have Marni for H&M ones which I love!

I agree with amber when I pack for hot holidays I take silver footwear it goes with everything......silver converse,silver sandals, silver flip flops......that's all I need and have on spare bed ready to pack for Florida on Satrurday
amber I love that pink, funny how you get o know everyone's style eventually.

drywhite you wouldn't happen to be the lady SGS has written about today, would you? :)

Today I wore charcoal cashmere jumper, grey CoH skinnies and cobalt converse high tips. Boring.

I also committed a major tactical error - I didn't realise DH was working from home today and had scheduled my deliveries. Two Matches boxes, one My-Wardrobe and one &otherstories later he is mildly concerned (haven't mentioned the Beketts yet...)
