Tee hee! I emailed J Crew about their UK spelling issues and they are passing my comments to their leadership team. I offered to proof read in exchange for clothes Grin

Linus enjoy your shopping time!

Picked up the skort from Zara, but it's so bloody wet and cold I can't face trying it on yet.

Am perusing shopbop/yoox/outnet and plotting a bit of a basics order. Boring but essential.

shopafrolic · 10/05/2013 19:45

Your blog was hilarious today Hopefully

I'd like to link to fab high heels sandals, but I am actually looking for something more easy going Grin
joie these are way too simple though

see by chloe

belle by sigerson morrison

shopafrolic · 10/05/2013 20:03

Lovel sandals Franca I love the first link especially but would struggle to keep them on.
I was lusting after these but they are out of my price range!

Francagoestohollywood · 10/05/2013 20:08

Thanks Shop, yes, I have the same doubts re the first pair.

Oh God I looooove those margiela sandals, they are exactly what I want Shock

What do I do now? 262.. oh deaaaarrrrr

LinusDKD · 10/05/2013 20:17

shop another skirt for you. It is viscose though but maybe you don't mind.

khaki pleated skirt

Viscose again

Next

LinusDKD · 10/05/2013 20:19

The M. Margiela flats are lovely but am not tempted because ankle straps make my legs look even shorter and the colour would look horrible on my milky white legs.

If I looked like Gisèle though....

Hopefully · 10/05/2013 20:22

Amber had some Topshop sandals that were v similar to those last year.

Am playing scrabble with DH. It's another rock'n'roll Friday night round here.

santamarianovella · 10/05/2013 20:22

sleep we live in Marylebone,but sadly we are not loaded!,
i would really love to meet you all on your MU,but we are going on a long weekend break,Dh has been working very hard and the last time we went away as a family was in december,so im really looking forward to it.
i have a couple of zadig and voltaire sweaters,they are heavenly,and from my experience i learned to either go for the thing i want or nothing at all.so if you like it go for it,its unlikely you will find something similar,

shop thats good,if you persist you might get the job!
i was helping a friend today with her living room,as i used to work in interior designing pre DD, she was so pleased,and said i shouldnt waste my time sitting home and should start a business,of course its easier said than done .

that must be my longest post to date.Grin.

Coggles has 25% off with the code MID25

Some lovely things on there, Helmut L tee's, slightly bonkers trainers etc.

Love those Chloe sandals.

Welcome home MrShop

shopafrolic · 10/05/2013 20:33

arty ring I wish I knew what ring size I needed as I love this ring!
j Crew bubble necklace

AmberNectarine · 10/05/2013 20:35

Ooh yes, mine are quite similar, but a mere £25. I wore them loads and love them still - they did them in orange, pink and yellow. I got orange but I wish I'd bought all three!

Lol at the cuffs being MMM - I was given them by George at Asda. I really like them though!

I'm having a strange lull in retail activity. There's nothing I really want at the moment. It's unnerving me...

AmberNectarine · 10/05/2013 20:37

I've got a 7 in my Arty shop which fits round my middle finger nicely. I printed off a US ring sizer to check.

QueenCadbury · 10/05/2013 20:39

hopefully can I come and join you? I love scrabble but unfortunately dh hates it. I'm sitting here painting my nails.

santamarianovella · 10/05/2013 20:40

ohhh sandals, my favorite topic!
i love the chloe ones!
and those margiela sandals are sooo fine.

OMG shop, is that how you feel when you read my americanized posts?Grin

shopafrolic · 10/05/2013 20:46

Nooooo Santa it's the marketing bod in me! If a UK brand goes to the US they should amend there language to the audience. So it should be the same for a US brand in the UK. I couldn't open a store in France and expect them to speak English just because I do. Sorry, I'm a weirdo!
Amber thanks, off to search for ring sizer.....
Anni I love the things on the Coggles site - sadly no skirts though!
Linus Thanks but if possible I'd like to minimise the viscose - famous last words.......
Franca please buy them!

OP posts:
shopafrolic · 10/05/2013 20:47

And I should proof read my posts!!!!!

OP posts:
Hopefully · 10/05/2013 20:50

Queen I probably should be painting my nails - have clients all weekend. I am thrashing DH though, and it seems a shame not to see it through Grin

Francagoestohollywood · 10/05/2013 20:51

Oh Shop, I'd love to...

Thank you girls for your support, I will try to stick around, I am not very good at internet shopping, but I'd love to broaden my horizon as the shopping scene is getting boring here in Milan.

Hopefully · 10/05/2013 20:53

Oh and shop thanks for blog love. No idea why I felt I had to take that photo! I'm sure I had a plan at the time Grin

shopafrolic · 10/05/2013 20:56

Franca Milan??? I love Milan. I had a very expensive work event there 10 years ago, when I took clients to the Grand Prix. Bought a Prada purse, Chanel sunnies, lots of MaxMara. So much fun.

santamarianovella · 10/05/2013 20:58

shop it drives DH mad!i went to a school were the number of american students were high,it really rubbed on me,and though i went to uni here ,i still cant let go of it!,he fears i might corrupt the DCS with my weird accent!Grin

shopafrolic · 10/05/2013 21:00
