I have a lot of cava and tapas to work off after last week Santa Grin. It was the only consolation with the crap weather and horrible house! Think I ate a whole baguette (with butter/jam/oil and balsamic) to myself every day - usually I try and avoid white carbs! I'm not about to check my measurements for body shape this week Grin.

Have also managed to tear my big toenail, ruining my lovely shellac Angry - honestly, I am so useless with gels Hmm!

Sleepwhenidie · 06/06/2013 22:28

Shop - fat Shock - I hardly think so! Gorgeous, tall Envy, hourglass!

Morning all! DH back tonight after 3 days away. Good news as I am struggling to look after DS and the dogs who need at least an hours exercise today (and I hate picking up dog shit!).
In other news I'm wearing the J Brand cargo pants, Splendid tee in brick red and my Gigis.
For anyone interested in the Cargo pants and buying from ShopBop, they are the same:
"Yes, all three of these sites show the same pair of Croft Cargo?s in Vintage Garrison.
The Shopbop and JBrand measurements are very similar, but we stand by our measurements as the most precise.

As far as being a size 30 vs size 29, this fabric has Tencel which will create more stretch. Your size will depend on how you wants them to fit. If you want the fit like the JBrand site, I suggest size 29. If you like the fit on the shopbop model, you may want to go with the 30.

We have both sizes available online if you wish to make your purchase through us. Please see the link below:
www.jbrandjeans.com/store/productdetails.aspx?productid=3358&colorid=7132 "
Great customer service from J Brand......

Good morning shop Smile

Always nice to have the dh home. If only to pick up the shit Wink

Still sorting out the out net order. The Internet hasn't been so good, I think we will be disconnected soon as they know we are moving.

Will have to get it ordered soon.

MarshaBrady · 07/06/2013 10:13

Morning!

Decam love the bag and the shorts.

Mignonette I wondered if those pins were by you! Lovely to see you again, sorry to hear about your dh's father and your father too.

Shop congrats on being a vase Grin.

Foxy great news on the class, you'd be brilliant.

I saw this and thought of everyone Anni, Shop doing the cut offs. The home cut is in!

MarshaBrady · 07/06/2013 10:14

And hi to Leather Gillybobs and SpecialBrew stick around!

MarshaBrady · 07/06/2013 10:35

Liberty thanks, I hope work eases up soon.

Sleep well done on double kick boxing, bet Jude can't keep up with that. Grin

QueenC did your sandals arrive?

Dry love that you were following each other already Grin.

mignonette · 07/06/2013 10:37

I do like that high/low cut off look, Marsha

Today I am still wearing my Matalan PJ's seen below and a total bargain. I bought an apricot T to wear with them and it's so lovely and soft it has been promoted to daywear.

www.matalan.co.uk/womens/shop-by-category/nightwear/s2521835/woven-pyjama-bottoms

I have matched them with an ancient grey marl sea island cotton John Smedley sweatshirt stolen from DH. Think I might stay in this all day....

LinusDKD · 07/06/2013 10:53

Morning!

shop DH came back late last night as well and I am soo happy! He will be on nappy duty all weekend. Wink

I saw a lady with a Céline trapeze this morning in the supermarket and I nearly stopped in my tracks and turned round to ogle her bag but I thought she might think I was a weirdo so I didn't. Such a beautiful and understated bag.

As DH is traveling again next week I have some child free shopping time tomorrow so I think I will get measured for a bra because I really need a t-shirt bra.

mignonette · 07/06/2013 11:13

I do comment on peoples bags because I imagine that they've often saved and saved up, are very proud and appreciate admiration in the same way they would about their kids or dogs!

MarshaBrady · 07/06/2013 11:16

Linus I love Céline. I have one (small not a biggy) and still long for the ones I don't have! People do comment on it, it's quite nice.

Good call on the nappies.

LinusDKD · 07/06/2013 11:21

I love Céline too Marsha! I have a small one too (a burgundy trio) and a wallet but I am lusting after a nano now.

The bigger ones are lovely as well but with a toddler and a baby a crossbody bag is just a lot easier..

I might have to pop into the Céline store tomorrow... Wink

Mignonette I comment as well sometimes but this lady was just walking past me so by the time I had realised it was a trapeze, she was already gone.

MarshaBrady · 07/06/2013 11:24

I have the orange trio, and long for the burgundy too Grin.

And a white one could be chic. And I saw a raspberry one that was unbelievably nice. And... and.. Three would probably suffice Wink.

I agree that having a tiny one is fantastic. I often end up picking up child related stuff or actual children and I loathed having a big lugging bag too. I would get mild bag rage.

Annianni · 07/06/2013 11:25

Morning all...

Shop, if you're fat, then I'm a weeble!

Marsha, that is just what I look like in mine :o

I can't believe the price of cut off shorts at the moment.
Most people have a pair of jeans, they are willing to sacrifice for a week or two of sun.

Dhl man's just been.
So excited!

mignonette · 07/06/2013 11:26

Linus yes, chasing after her would be a bit 'Bling Ring Stalker' Grin

BrandyAlexander · 07/06/2013 11:34

Morning everybody!
