Nice jacket Paris - handy that it can be washed too Grin

I am fed up with the weather too. Have just made an initial pile of clothes for Spain, there are too many but I want to wear them all as I haven't had the chance here Grin.

I gave up on shopping at MW, decided that if I couldn't choose between stuff then I didn't really want any of it (a bit like the old days when you couldn't decide between which man you really like Grin. So I am keeping my powder dry for NAP and Zadig/other sales in June.

I have the most fabulous neon coral shellac toes ready for sandals, they are making me feel summery even if nothing else is Smile. I also want to thank whoever recommended the Dior Glow polish, I got some yesterday and it is fabulous, definitely not just another clear varnish, its lovely!

Marsha - how about a jumpsuit? this one would look amazing on you, DVF blue and white one rather lovely too? Maybe wait for the sale however Wink.

LinusDKD · 23/05/2013 18:10

I played it safe and went for my black Me & Em dress, black opaques, old J Choo blue patent leather flats and Tiffany diamond studs.

To inject a bit of colour I am wearing my new red bangle and red Chan Luu bracelet and a bright Revlon lip butter (raspberry pie which will end up on my teeth sooner rather than later)

My nails look rubbish though as I decided to make red cabbage for DH and DS's dinner and they're a corpslike shade of purple now.

But Wine awaits so don't mind too much!

Sleepwhenidie · 23/05/2013 18:19

I'm looking forward to a few Wine later too, going to a very cool sounding art exhibition with DH. About to go and decide what to wear.....

MarshaBrady · 23/05/2013 18:25

Sleep love that Halston one, it's gorgeous. Am going to hunt down DvF one too sounds nice Grin. In which neck of the woods is your exhibition?

Paris great stuff in jacket.

Dry love your shopping zones.

Decam it's tough, short notice stuff, especially if it demands a lot of attention.

MarshaBrady · 23/05/2013 18:27

MrsR I agree nuts weather. Reminds me of Melbourne weather, changing all day.

Foxy love your wardrobe planning and execution!

Sleepwhenidie · 23/05/2013 18:28

Rathbone Place Marsha. here is DVF jumpsuit Smile

shopafrolic · 23/05/2013 18:29

Quick wave to all. No time anymore now DH is doing a proper job I'm actually having to be a more committed SAHM. Decam saw you got the Gigis and let out a little woop.
Trying to spend a bit less time online too. Planted my veg patch this morning in between rain showers, and then it hailed!
Off to meet the new twins on Sat. Norwich and back in a day with DS Hmm

Decameron · 23/05/2013 20:14

I love that DVF jumpsuit.

Hope your nephews are doing well, Shop.

I am on my second bottle of Rosy Glow, Sleep.

Are you better now, Annie? Hope your DD is better too, Liberty and you are enjoying your break.

DH has come across Mumsnet when googling areas too. He often works late which is why I spend way too much time online.

OneLittleLady, lovely photo.

Outfit sounds great, Linus and Paris, that jacket is lovely. Machine washable is good!

Logging off now as very tempted to buy a bag. I'm weak.

As i'm obviously trying to avoid doing the shred, I am on dh laptop and have managed to add mates (apologies if i've missed anyone-it wasn't intentional). Can't believe I'm doing this but i've uploaded some photos. Tell me whether to keep the hair long or cut it a bit shorter. i can't grow it any longer as it gets really ratty as it's so fine.

will check back in 20m after my exercise...

Drywhiteplease · 23/05/2013 20:32

Still can't open your profile QueenC

MarshaBrady · 23/05/2013 20:35

QueenC you seem to be retreating, profile-wise Grin. You had a line under your name but no photos, now there isn't a line under your name.

Have a great time Sleep. The DvF is lovely, think the Halston might be easier one for me to wear. Love your kitchen and very cute children.

OneLittle lovely photo.

Decam dare you link? Wink

santamarianovella · 23/05/2013 20:43

i want to see the great gatsby too paris ,dh does not like these type of movies, so planing on going with a friend instead.
sleep,i was gonna order some denim from MW,but found them much cheaper on shopbop.
linus what you chose sounds fab.
marsha i feel the same ,i find it very difficult wearing opaques in may no matter how cold!
shop we missed you today!,
queen your profile is not public yet,
dec do link plz!,i wanna buy a bag in september,have one in mind but would love to see other options!

foxysocks · 23/05/2013 20:45

i can't click on your profile queenc

decam show us the bag! jealous of your matches invite, although tbf have only bought twice from them ever and once was with a whacking great discount so am probs not on their list of valued customers! can you tell us how much % off there was on FP items?

marsha can totes see you in a jumpsuit! not that I've actually met you, but feel as if I have. DD has a onesie and I call her Anneka when she wears it, much to her confusion

AmberNectarine · 23/05/2013 20:52

I hate Matches. If they're going to be tight with their codes I may as well shop at NaP.

santamarianovella · 23/05/2013 21:03

amber,i didnt get one either!i got codes from(my theresa,MW,luisa via roma)but still no matches!

QueenCadbury · 23/05/2013 21:04

Sorry, I'm crap t this techno stuff. Hopefully you can see now? But I can do the shred although I do need some tena lady for the jumping jacks Grin

QueenCadbury · 23/05/2013 21:06

Love that halston jumpsuit. If you have the legs marsha then go for it. I can only wear things like that with thick black opaques!

AmberNectarine · 23/05/2013 21:23

Marsha SO has the legs

MarshaBrady · 23/05/2013 21:35

Amber you're very kind! I do have to be careful with deep v due to lack of cleavage, but might be ok.

MarshaBrady · 23/05/2013 21:36

Foxy thanks! But I can't work out who Anneka is. Grin

shopafrolic · 23/05/2013 21:38

Dropped back in to nose at the v pretty QueenC. Love the length on the second pic and feel honoured that I'm a MN mate! :)

AmberNectarine · 23/05/2013 21:42

Marsha, would you rather look like this or this?

MarshaBrady · 23/05/2013 21:42

Love the top one QueenC you look gorgeous. Are you a blonde winter? Is that right.. You must be rare!

AmberNectarine · 23/05/2013 21:43

I believe foxy is referring to Anneka Rice

MarshaBrady · 23/05/2013 21:44

Lol Amber! Grin Cara D is blinking gorgeous. I could never do that low. She does look stunning.
