and another

foxysocks · 31/07/2013 20:10

gorgeous marni tweed

mignonette · 31/07/2013 20:10

That is a colour I love Foxy but I have six skirts in that colour including ones from The Kooples, Adidas/Y3, Balenciaga and Zara. I mustn't buy another even though I do not have a textured tweedy one....

mignonette · 31/07/2013 20:12

The Marni!!! It's the kind of Fugly-Sexy I like. It is wonderful. You are reeling me in Foxy.

shopafrolic · 31/07/2013 20:23

Love the A&O Foxy and it's my size but I have no £££ to spend......

QueenC I feel your pain....have a Wine from me

Trapped my left index finger between bar and weight at gym today....think it's an internal bruise, has gone an interesting shade of purple, not my colour at all, doesn't hurt but I look a bit weird with the purple pointy finger of doom Grin keep telling myself exercise is bad for you!

Looking fwd to getting shorts back on tomorrow after monsoon today.

Am Tempted by me&em maxi and t shirt riches- was it shop who had the maxi? Is if true to size for 12-14? i got the 14-16 in the other ruched ones as risnt want a hight fit, or will that be too baggy on the maxi and t shirt? Anyone have the t shirt version and can advise on size?
Swore I was at the end of summer clothes spending too..,.

MarshaBrady · 31/07/2013 20:31

I did famous friend. Can't remember the other options now.

Love those skirts Foxy.

mignonette · 31/07/2013 20:31

OW Dry.....Stick in in a bowl of hot water to get that bruise developed. Purple is in this A/W anyway. You be ahead of the fashion game my friend....

MarshaBrady · 31/07/2013 20:32

QueenC I hope dh has jumped in with new energy. I just sat in the car for five minutes reading this after going to the shops (again) was nice Grin.

OneLittleLady · 31/07/2013 20:32

love the marni. Am talking myself into buying a stella mcartney suspender belt as i know DP will love it and his birthday is coming up Blush

Drywhiteplease · 31/07/2013 20:41

Mig I knew you'd tell me what to do Smile.......but it was 9.30 this morning....too late?

foxysocks · 31/07/2013 20:44

i love the yellow boucle SO MUCH!

shop I forgot to update on leopard pointy flats - I love them. really great print, nicely made, think they will be tres useful once heatwave ends. I ordered two sizes and went for the bigger ones although the reviews seem to disagree and suggest sizing down.

shopafrolic · 31/07/2013 20:45

LeFreak I have the maxi in a L and am a 12/14. It's fab.

Are those the Boden ones Foxy?

OP posts:
mignonette · 31/07/2013 20:47

One I have Stella lingerie and can report great results from field testing Wink...

Not too late Dry - it will soothe. Then keep it elevated a little and massage as much as possible. it's going to hurt unfortunately because the bone to flesh ratio is great.

shopafrolic · 31/07/2013 20:49

Arnica tablets or cream also good Dry
How are your visitors? Wink

OP posts:
foxysocks · 31/07/2013 20:50

yes. i couldn't bring myself to take the risk on madewell not knowing my exact size.

ouchy dry - ice best way forward. btw was it you who ordered the boden dalmation print dress?

BrandyAlexander · 31/07/2013 20:53

Hello all....Long day! I have been at home today (although in and out of the house a lot). I have been wearing my j crew toothpick jeans today. They are fab. I am in the US in 6 weeks (blink and they might miss me!) and I think I might pick up some more. They are such a good fit and just very flattering.

mignonette · 31/07/2013 20:55

Yes, Arnica too. Am hoping my new pairs of &OtherStories sandals will be arriving about the same time as me...here they are and these too. Just have to hope that they will fit as i can be either a 7 or 8 depending upon brand and style and ordered these in a 7 as all they had....

shopafrolic · 31/07/2013 20:56

Stamps foot - I want a trip to the US!!

Hi Novice Lucky you JCrew cheaper than here.....I have J Crew cigarette pants in orange and a blue geo print and I'll wear them for years.

MarshaBrady · 31/07/2013 20:58

I just realised my favourite grey wool shorts are J Crew. I love them, one of my best purchases from NaP. Definitely going to get into that some more.

Drywhiteplease · 31/07/2013 21:00

Pooh you are awful shop !!!
No Foxy it wasn't me....but might have a look

Drywhiteplease · 31/07/2013 21:00
