QueenCadbury - I'm about 5'11" possibly 6'. Used to hate it but now embracing it and it's dresses and heels all the way (well, for work at least) then I don't need to worry about trying to get suits!

Damn. Too slow on the Outnet this morning. Glad you all got some good stuff. Am Envy.

Also Envy at 36 inch legs LLL. I have to get 6 inches cut off my J Brand 814s and I don't think they'd be long enough for you in the first place.

Poor you Anni. I did that quite recently and it really leaves you shaken. Hope you get the chance to take it easy. I'd only badly bruised my back though and it got better quite quickly after a painful first few days so fingers crossed for you.

Hi LLL, I think Citizens for Humanity and Seven do extra long.

Anni, what a fright you must have got, poor you.

Novice, the outfit sounds great and I am intrigued as to who you were meeting!

Lovely shoes, Foxy.

Gah, I missed the Wang on the outnet. I have my eye on a few things for the summer sales though so just as well.

What colour varnish Dry? I'm currently waiting for this to dry.

Which AG sandals Amber? Or can't you link JIC?

On my need list are mostly things for my S.E. Asia trip:

A few vests that aren't racer back
A casual jacket in black, grey or white
Some sandals with an ankle strap. Maybe these
Black silk shorts, hopefully with lace hems
Silk vest tops (seen nice ones on & other stories)
Casual jersey dress like this one
A navy or cobalt slim maxi dress. Prob get one from H&M
A shift dress
Bandeau bikinis x2
A clutch bag. Pref black, white and yellow geometric print
Sungalsses. I'm thinking cat eye (slightly long face) Grin
Still considering these

Love the fact that the clutch is top of the list Amber :)
Foxy try the skirt, but unless it's true love I'd send it back and wait for the sales......
My list but I have no money:
Brown jeans belt
Some kind of statement necklace
Arty ring
The green skirt!
And some kind of printed tee with a hard edge to it to wear with a biker and jeans - trouble is such tees don't come in Autumn colours so it'll probably be another grey one!
Oh and some long trousers to wear for Pilates (most gym gear comes up short on me) - speak to me Yoga master and tell me where you buy your gear from?

Shop The top sounds beautiful. I would buy it off you but it isn't my size Sad

QueenCadbury · 16/05/2013 16:10

shop cobalt is perfect for me but it sounds like it will be too big if it's a 12? I'm normally an 8/10.

Cheers foxy, and happy it's normally more lovingly cared for. My proper job that pays for all the clothes has been getting in the way. Grrr.

Outnet order has been dispatched - expect to see me clad head to toe in Wang on Sat. Well no actually, because in don't have any shoes

Hi all - I spent a couple of hours getting my hair done this afternoon, noticed the Wang stuff on the Outnet whilst there but frustratingly couldn't get phone to work to order what I wanted (mostly the same as you lot Grin). Just managed to get the ivory racer back top and a white vest though. May also end up in one of those on Saturday Grin - T by Wang...designer of choice for MNVGrin. If any of you get hold of the skirt in dark colour xs but don't want it please let me know!

LL welcome and Envy! You can join Marsha in the long legs club! Also welcome Happy - stick around!

Anni you poor thing, falling down the stairs, its horrible, especially when carrying DC. We have a step down to our front door that is lethal when wet, I have slipped on it a few times, once with DS2 in my arms. Really scary.
