MN Vogue Vol 7

[shopafrolic]

All welcome to talk style and beauty

Shop yes nearer to ds1's school. If we do it just yet, or next year. We rather like where we are so have to love the next one just as much.

Hope you are not too cold and have a good coat in that long queue!

i flaked. it was too cold and I didn't have my huge coat on. managed to try on a wang muscle tee in matches before tube home and omfg I looooooooove them. they looked great on me too , but i cannot afford £70 on a tee at all, will have to wait until a. sales or b. lottery win, which is unlikely as I have never played the lottery in my life.

about to go and make pot of tea and eat planet organic brownie. planet organic is tremaze, if I lived where my ILs do we would have no money left AT ALL.

Sorry for link fail, the ballet flats are snakeprint Blochs...sat waiting for their arrival now.

Sorry to hear you and DS are unwell novice.

Amber there was a pair of the ce's on eBay recently, but size 25 and from the US, also £169 so I didn't want to risk it (am 26 in most jeans). If they are of interest to you, I think they went unsold, I could find them and you could contact seller?

Marsha-house hunting, how exciting! What area ?

foxy I love PE/Whole Foods too, live very close to one but I try and avoid going too often, I go in to get some of the amazing fresh guacamole and come out £30 lighter, guaranteed, with a load of other stuff I can't resist..., not just with clothes then

Shop have you looked in Gap for a vest? I have a great bright orange Body one.

Please can anyone tell me how long shopbop express delivery takes? I'm sure someone said on here that its fast, but how fast is that usually?

Tia.

it'll be quick sleep. when i ordered boots from them I ordered on tuesday and they arrived friday morning, that was standard delivery. maybe two days from US, express? whatcha buying?! I LOVE the snakeskin blochs but my feet cannot countenance anything non fleece lined atm.

I've only ever done standard delivery, but that's always been 3 days, occasionally less.

Hmm, dilemma. In Cornwall til Sat, then back to London, leaving for Spain on Sunday, need or thought I did, this sweater but just seen that it is mostly acrylic and dry clean only...hmm, do I or don't I?

MW order is here, APC "jeans" are jeans impostors, more cotton drill with no stretch whatsover so they are too small and even if they weren't I suspect they wouldn't be very comfy, which is a shame as once on, the print looks good . Blochs are lovely.

hopefully if its any consolation I ordered those SM capris and they were fabulous except for the camel toe . Re fitness, I'm sure I heard your name mentioned somewhere in relation to completing Insanity ...how was it?

Ooh, that is a nice sweater Sleep, but if you've managed to live thus far without it, it's probably not worth taking the risk of it turning up too late/in the wrong place if you're particularly thinking of having it for Spain.

I did do Insanity. It is bloody brilliant, amazing results. The only caveats are (a) it is called insanity for a reason - it gets fabulous results because it is incredibly hard work. You need to be fuelling your body appropriately, eating enough protein, or you will crash and burn (ask me how I know) and (b) you need to be able to commit the time to it properly. I really want to do another 60/90 day program, as I work well with defined goals and results, but I know full well that I have too much going on at the moment to make such a commitment. I think as soon as you miss a handful of workouts, it is too easy to let the whole thing slide. The workouts start around the 35-40 minute mark, and by the end are well over 60 mins, which is a big chunk of time.

I am a big Jillian fan, and would be doing this program if I could commit fully to it.

I need to get back on the Ripped in 30 horse, but since I had pneumonia at Christmas I've just constantly felt a bit shit.

Lol at me needing a 25 sleep, more like a 27 sadly!

I did the fit test on Sunday hopefully and beat/was close to the results of the girl doing it, was keen to do it as I usually work out 6 days a week but rarely at home, but it seemed like a good idea for holidays. Was going to do the day 2 cardio today but I keep feeling really dizzy when I stand up, weird thing that has been getting worse over the last few days so insanity doesn't seem like the best idea at the mo . I like JM too, have tried shred and bfbm in previous holidays, but wanted more of a challenge...if it wasn't so damn cold I would at least go for a run!

Hi Sleep, I wouldn't risk it unless you know someone who can take it on for you. Eg friendly neighbour?

Marsha, house hunting . We're only supposed to live on this house another 5 years but the effort of moving is bound to be too much for me! Good luck

Ha thanks . We've only bought so far, so selling and buying will be a whole new ball of fun. We will stay in SE London, near all those schools in that school hot spot. Round there .

Foxy they've got T Wang ts on the outnet

shop I was at longleat today too!

Haven't yet had a chance to catch up with links properly. Considering most of the day has been spent driving very slowly through lions,deer etc I'm knackered!!

That's hilarious QueenC!! We could have been trapped two cars away from each other for hours and never have known!

So where do I go for our last full day out tomorrow QueenC with a 2 yo DS? We're ten mins from Bath.........

I need a catch up, will look at all the links tomorrow.

I returned the Splendid AR cardigan, didn't want to risk it, washing wise.

Not feeling very stylish at the moment. Sick of wearing layers and coats and I've put on weight to keep warm

But... I've just got a hula hoop and it's ace :o
Dh is v jealous because I can keep it up for longer than him.
I'm shattered though already, so unfit.

Foxy not sure if it's been mentioned already, but there's a lovely yellow Splendid tee in the Shopbop sale.

shop I like avon valley which isn't too far from bath. Or Bristol zoo? Which side of bath are you? Westonbirt is nice but may be a bit cold to wander round.

Looks lush. Those places I linked are probably too much of a trek from you as it looks like you're very near longleat. Although Bristol is only about 28 miles away it takes an hour and a half due to traffic and country roads.

Yup we were 15 mins from Longleat today. Think we'll head for Glastonbury tomorrow. I desperately need sunshine and warmth, I am so sick of wearing layers, coats, hats, scarves, boots...... Nothing stylish about my holiday wardrobe.....

Stourhead is one of my most favourite places ever, not too far away. Probably not the best if it's freezing, but the grounds are truly beautiful. DH and I thought about getting married there, but not enough space for our ridiculous divorced/remarried parents and siblings, never mind any other guests!

Not that Glastonbury will be warm of course, I need to jump on a plane for that!! Amazing shopping in Bath, and didn't realise how close we are to the Mulberry factory shop. Will definitely have to come back here when we're sorted again! On that note, the guy who owns this place is a marketing consultant so it's been great to pick his brains! (Whilst DS fed his pigs!)

That looks lovely Hopefully and we're NT members too. Will take a closer look - thanks! Are you this neck of the woods too then? I forget - sorry!
