Thanks everyone for your lovely comments,Xx
dh was in Zurich for work,and was called for a meeting in paris that later got postponed for several hours , he said that he really felt sorry for me in south of france as it was clear that I really liked the bag,so he asked about the closest celine store to where he was staying.good Thinking.

queen I know I'm late! But I hope you went with jaeger top,it's gorgeous .

GrumpyOldHorsewoman · 07/09/2013 22:37

Ooh it's quiet on here this evening. DH is watching Insidious on Ch4 - I want to be able to sleep tonight, so I'm busying myself catching up with MNV instead of having the bejesus scared out of me.

The item(s) I'm most looking forward to wearing this AW are my glittery pumps from Baukjen and the leather Oasis skirt, possibly together with a good pair of Wolford velvet-feel opaques in between. I love the jumper Dry linked to - the stripy Mint Velvet and think I may be ordering that tomorrow Grin. I did order the sequin sweater from Wrap in Duck Egg and the leopard/tartan scarf too and hope they live up to my expectations.

Santa I am in awe of your DH, so thoughtful and with such excellent taste - a rare combination indeed! Beauutiful bag.

MarshaBrady · 07/09/2013 22:39

Santa your dh is the best! That is one of the nicest things to happen and such good taste. Bravo.

I love all your things you are looking forward to wearing. I can only join in with stuff yet to be bought. In the next couple of weeks.

Drywhiteplease · 07/09/2013 22:43

Hey Grumpy and Santa everyone must be out....just us three and lurkers
Grumpy let me know how the sequinned top looks...am interested

Drywhiteplease · 07/09/2013 22:44

marsha are you an Aussie? just wondering,not sure why I think this

Drywhiteplease · 07/09/2013 22:46

And M I used to love the Brady Bunch, such a cheesy opening credits...great stuff. Little House on the Prairie, The Waltons and The Partridge Family when I was really young.

shopafrolic · 07/09/2013 22:46

Gah!!! I'm so behind. I'll have to try and catch up tomorrow. I wore the outfit I wore to my first MNV meet up today, skinnies, cream AV top, brown pistolalike boots and Muubaa biker - made me smile - happy memories.
I'm most looking forward to wearing my Dagmar and Vince sweaters, and my Maison Scotch camel coat.
Santa fabulous bag and DH
Dry nice sweater, but yes, a little short.... And I am so thrilled with the Vince one.....
Hope everyone has had wonderful Saturdays. I have been catching up with old friends, lunch ran into dinner - perfect

Yep Dry but two passports. Born in the UK, parents are British but I grew up there, have an accent. Have been here in London for ages now, 15 years or something! Have lost count.

Drywhiteplease · 07/09/2013 22:51

nice skirt

MarshaBrady · 07/09/2013 22:52

Me too re Brady Bunch. And proud that, who was it, Giles Deacon used it as inspiration for a collection a couple of years ago. Am so directional Grin.

Sounds good Shop.

GrumpyOldHorsewoman · 07/09/2013 22:55

Shop I live in hope of bagging myself that Vince sweater. So pleased you finally nabbed one.

Just watched a bit of Insidious, it's shit and contrived - demons, ghosties and ghoulies, puppets, possessions, power cuts and crazed mediums. Yaaaawn.

santamarianovella · 07/09/2013 22:59

grumpy and marsha thank you, he is truly amazing,love him! And not just for the bag!
Loooove the Brady bunch,used to watch it before going to classes, such a happy chessey sitcom,
shop your evening sounds wonderful,nothing beats catching up with old friends,

Annianni · 07/09/2013 23:00

Evening all...
I've spent the day painting, I had that weird white blindness you get after too many coats of white paint.

I might be slightly tipsy now :o

I'm looking forward to wearing my Marant Jenny's.
Need to Collonil them.

Annianni · 07/09/2013 23:04

I watched the first 20 minutes of that film, I turned it over, I am such a wuss.

That Celine is glorious Envy

GrumpyOldHorsewoman · 07/09/2013 23:05

Just had a little snort to myself, imagining what I would look like in this ensemble.

Drywhiteplease · 07/09/2013 23:05

Snow blindness Anni Grin . I built an Ikea modular sofa for our family room...get me. And a second coat inside the former airing cupboard...wearing a head torch!!!felt like a miner!

Drywhiteplease · 07/09/2013 23:07

Why why why? Why do they do it Grumpy ? I think this is an "Alexa". She's good at making that sort of outfit look hip.....normal people would look like a bag of spinners!

Drywhiteplease · 07/09/2013 23:07

SPANNERS!!!!!!

santamarianovella · 07/09/2013 23:09

grumpy I see this look very often! But even the gorgeous model looks short and stumpy

GrumpyOldHorsewoman · 07/09/2013 23:18

I'd just look like an elderly schoolgirl. And a badly put-together one at that.

QueenCadbury · 08/09/2013 00:20

I'm drunk. Nothing else to say but that. Night all x

Drywhiteplease · 08/09/2013 07:54

HOW'S YOUR HEAD QueenC? Sounds like. A fab night.
Drywhite's handover cure seems less effective as I grow older though
(You'll like this QC)

1 bar Daily MIlk (told you Wink )
2 neurofen
1 can diet coke
1 glass orange juice

Tried and tested many times by my drunk "friends"

QueenCadbury · 08/09/2013 10:10

dry apart from oj which I can't stand that is my perfect hangover cure too. Took the neurofen first thing when dd woke up, have been back to bed, just had breakfast and about to do dairy milk and diet coke!

QueenCadbury · 08/09/2013 10:12

I wore the jaegar top and was also brave enough to do red lipstick. Rimmel red diva is perfect for me.

BrandyAlexander · 08/09/2013 10:32

Morning all! (Said quietly for QueenC Grin) why do I always leave it so bloody late to pack every single time?! Hmm
