I was looking for a White Company code yesterday Marsha. The best I found was 15% and free delivery with voucher codes.

Annianni · 26/03/2013 11:34

I only know AB950 for 15% off and free delivery Marsha

MarshaBrady · 26/03/2013 11:36

Thank you Anni and McNally, perfect!

Decameron · 26/03/2013 11:48

Marsha, OCD35 for 20% off.

I shrank a Missoni sweater, I'd worn it once. I slumped on the floor beside the washing machine for a while after, mourning it.

I love your summery purchases, Sleep.

You could use myus.com (gives you a US shipping address and they forward it on) and get the Madewell shoes that way.

Bored of the cold now.

foxysocks · 26/03/2013 12:20

great purchasing sleep. am channeling your summery optimism (and amber's after the summer dress blog the other day) and wearing an actual T SHIRT today. am so fed up with a. the cold and b. feeling ill.

it's this one pinterest.com/pin/250231323018296862/ which I almost charity shopped as I'm a bit bored with it (bought it after DD was born so it's five years old) but actually I still really like it and it's worn/washed v well. so will give it another summer at least

layered (ha) over a white vest with the same old distressed boyfriend jeans and a green boyfriend cardigan (years old again, from urban outfitters)

Sleepwhenidie · 26/03/2013 12:30

Marsha if not too late 20% White Co code from Ocado is OCD35

Sleepwhenidie · 26/03/2013 12:31

Feeling a bit bad bringing everyone down about things they've loved and lost now SadGrin

Amber love your new slippers...and lucky friend getting that skirt Envy

Was offline for a few days but after a quick skim through what I've missed I'm loving the pink studded Ash and I'm deeply envious of the fabulous holiday shopping. We have several trips lined up this summer but strangely none of them are beach holidays that would require separate 'holiday' purchases. All city breaks.

We too go to CP about 4 times a year (and embarrassingly we once went 9 times one year! Long story and thankfully we've broadened our horizons since then). We've just discovered the new lodges with the lovely big sauna so we've rebooked one of those for May.

I trust everyone else is hating the cold as much as me. I'm itching to wear some of my new purchases. Relieved that my Marant eBay jacket arrived and is perfect. Only recent purchase is dull but practical shoes.

QueenCadbury · 26/03/2013 12:51

shop I don't know of anything in bath except that there's a good park. I think mrscampbellblack lives in bath.

I think I've mentioned it before but dh ruined a cardigan of mine by washing it. It was only a gap one but a really lovely shade of teal that I've never been able to find anything similar since.

I've lost all motivation to buy anything in this freezing cold weather.

QueenCadbury · 26/03/2013 12:52

wine love those shoes!

winefairy · 26/03/2013 12:59

Thanks, QueenC. I was lured in by the reduction.

foxysocks · 26/03/2013 13:03

nice ballerinas winefairy, i looked at the leopard print flats but not pointy, boo.

yellow belt arrived, it's awful. very dull colour and TINY. already repackaged to take to PO in a bit.

winefairy · 26/03/2013 13:12

And another confession. I love, love, love RHOBH too, Drywhite Blush

I developed a real crush on Kyle even though she became a bit of a mean girl. I even started to warm to Camille. Definitely my favourite RHO series by far. We have pretty basic channels though so have to rely on ITV2 so Season 2 has just finished.

DH is shocked at my love of this show as I hardly watch tv.

McNally · 26/03/2013 13:19

Also a RHOBH fan here Blush. Not much of a fan of their style though. Lisa was my favourite but the baby pink satin dresses seemed such an odd fit with her personality. DH cannot understand why I watch at all but it is my guilty pleasure. Actually, I don't even feel guilty about it!

Annianni · 26/03/2013 13:23

Lovely purchases Sleep. I love the bikini and the white knit.

My yellow belt is out for delivery Foxy, I won't bother unpacking it, i'll just put the return label on.

I'm so sick of this weather and being cold.

The grey boots are on their way, so they might cheer me up. Oh, and the navy plastic cardigan from AR.

winefairy · 26/03/2013 13:28

I looked at them too, foxy but I think I need to try on some pointy ones first to check what my wide feet look like in them.

The Project D on Brand Alley reminded me of my clothes disaster. Bought this Project D dress for an eye watering £400 for a wedding abroad and promptly spilt an after dinner Baileys down it. Didn't even make it to the evening reception unscathed. Was fairly gutted.

shopafrolic · 26/03/2013 13:53

So DH has been made redundant..... Expected, but gutted nonetheless.

Ah Shop so sorry to hear that.

Decameron · 26/03/2013 13:58

Shop, I am really sorry to hear that.

winefairy · 26/03/2013 14:06

shop really, really sorry to hear that. Expected doesn't lessen the blow either I would imagine. Sending hugs.

santamarianovella · 26/03/2013 14:10

sorry to hear that shop.

McNally · 26/03/2013 14:13

Oh shop, that's rubbish. I am so sorry to hear that.

QueenCadbury · 26/03/2013 14:15

Have some Wine shop

Annianni · 26/03/2013 14:22

So sorry to hear that Shop.

AmberNectarine · 26/03/2013 14:31

Adding to the commiserations shop, really sorry to hear that. Hopefully he'll find a new, better job and you'll have lots of redundancy money as a bonus.
