MN Vogue Vol 11

[Decameron]

Continuing from here...

Am I going to get a reputation for being the party pooper who left at 4pm?? :)

I can't work out whether my head hurts because I wasn't well anyway, or, whether it was the bubbles. i am sure its the former as I feel sniffly and stiff so can't just be the booze. currently wearing pjs (M&S finest!) and the duvet while dh has the kids downstairs.

Definitely not a party pooper Shop!

Nah Shop you can make up for it at next one .

I really enjoyed it! Everyone is so lovely. Took me ages to work out that there aren't any trains to my station after 7.30 for some reason. Easy to get a bus but took ages to find the new bus stop. Luckily went to M&S for some food. Drank so much water last night had raging thirst!

Gemma Arterton is gorgeous. (But didn't see her outfit).

Novice hope you don't get ill, and your other engagement people are all ok.

Am definitely fuzzy this morning.

Well that's the plus of leaving early - no fuzzy head!
Novice Really hope you don't get ill, lots of water and vitamin C today. Did you tell your DH who you met up with in the end?
Sleep We recorded Jonathan Ross so will take a look.
My back is absolutely killing me today - must be all that tramping around town in heeled boots - good thing I wasn't wearing the Floretes, I'd be unable to walk today!

I have to ask a final question to the MUppers.... did we all look as you'd pictured in your head having talked on here for so long?

A little bit Shop, but now you've been replaced by how you actually look I can't really remember what I thought you'd be like!

Marsha, glad to hear from you and sorry your journey home was a nightmare! I am waiting for the calls from the missed engagement!

Shop, I thankfully hadn't pictured what anyone looked like, other than I expected Marsha to be tall! But you were all tall and to reach down to hug me Style wise, I think you and I had the most in common, ie I could easily have been wearing what you wore but I think I had expected that. You have great taste and style

Marsha, I knew I would admire her outfit from afar and know it wouldn't suit me unless i grew an extra half a foot that's what I love about her Pinterest boards. That marant skirt is lovely.

I was probably most surprised by Sleep, she just looked so rock chick fabulous! I think in my head, I would love to wear that style but not sure i could pull it off. Her shoes (zara) are gorgeous and I have been hunting for a similar pair.

It all sound great and you do ( unsurprisingly ) sound like a chic lot.

Last night I ditched my planned outfit and wore my new Whistles Bella dress, felt fantastic in it.......and I broke from my no mixing colours and drank Chateau Lafite Rothchild 1997......yum yum, fashion and wine my perfect combo.

Sounds fabulous Dry I love my Bella dress, just haven't had much occassion to wear it.
Tee hee Novice agree we could easily have been wearing each other's clothes but you definitely outshone me on the jewellery front!
In my head I dress like Sleep meant to ask - where was that lovely top from? But in reality suede trousers and those beautiful heels would be asking for trouble for me!
Marsha you were just as I'd pictured, beautifully laid back, loved the colour of the I&I - felt as though we'd all known each other for a long time but then I guess on this thread we kind of have!
Off to take back the jacket today. Am wearing the Paige jeans and Farhi top to remind them what a great customer I am! :) wish me luck. Think I'll weep if they refuse to change it.

That's a lovely dress Dry. Glad you had a great time.

Love that dress Dry. Glad you had a great time.

One last mu post promise! Agree that Sleep really rocks rock chic and Shop is taller than I expected and has ultra cool style, but also to say that Novice really suits classically pretty, gorgeous bling!

Ok that's it. So hopefully you can all make it on the 6th July !

Am feeling better now.

Well recovered Marsha Bless you for ultra cool style - it's all down to this thread

Bless the honesty of children. I am wearing the same brown skinny cords as yesterday. She didn't see me dressed before I left so she looked at me this morning and said "why are you dressed in those brown trousers mummy?". I say "why don't you like them?", her "no mummy"

Oh that's great Shop. Good stuff from the Dressing Room. Hope they can replace it.

lol Novice. Love the direct simplicity!

I blame you all
oops

That is very nice Dry. Great buy! Have you tried it on?

Bagged a bit of a bargain this morning - an Issa wrap dress (K Middy engagment style only with a blue geometric pattern) - £10.

Feeling rather delicate today. DP took me out for drinks and I got just a little drunk. In the interests of the fashion boards, I wore, a fitted white shirt, black, low backed pinafore dress, black opaques, black leather ballet flat and a black jersey blazer. I looked very 1980's goth

Lovely jacket Dry.
Well done Amber was that another charity shop find?
Sounds like you had fun AND looked great one.

The MU sounds like it was great fun - 6th sounds good for me so just need to negotiate childcare with DH.

The lodge in Yorkshire is gorgeous - DH is very good at hunting down good places to stay, v private and peaceful. Have just spent the day in York. DD refusing to have an afternoon nap though....weather lovely today.

Thanks liberty I don't get to get dressed up very often but I always seem to look best in a gothy/rock chick look. Anything else just looks too twee or try hard on me.

It was the car boot sale unbelievably liberty!

Car boot sale!!! There is a big car boot sale every weekend near me - maybe I should check it out!

It's good you know your style one. I still don't think I have found my casual look, I think I look ok at work most of the time but at weekends I look a bit 'meh' but can't put my finger on what's missing - all the individual items suit but I don't know what is distinctively 'me'...honestly, I thought I would have this sorted by now!

Novice haven't tried it on.ordered Xs and s to try ( free delivery and returns) will report back.
Today I'm wearing my black jersey maxi skirt . White and black fitted Breton, flip flops, neon red nails,very comfy .
