Fabulous peacoat Shop.
Lovely colour on you.

I want your doors

Thanks Anni - all our doors have cracks, or bits falling off, or upside down handles, or locks that get stuck - death trap house with a toddler!!

i love it with the goldsign shop, lovely color.
love your door!

Wow mig great news! Can you link when it's on the blog?

shop I would put my pj's back on and go to bed if the DC weren't off nursery today. But I understand trying on coats is a well proven remedy for all kinds of ailments.

dry if I had the right red and pink combo I would definitely give it a go. Piccies please?

Anni tried the code but it isn't working so the Pistols will have to wait a while longer. TBH I'd have to sell DS to pay for them ATM now that the peacoat seems to be a keeper :)

Linus I will. It's going to be on Food 52 (unless I write a load of old crap [grin) but I do not know when.

Dry I love red and pink together. I think QueenC has some great examples on her colour combination pinboard.

Great news mig

I think my cold is gone which is lucky as I'm due into surgery tomorrow afternoon

Dry be confident about your choice, you'll know yourself if it works for you or not.

Gah. I'm going to be naked all winter. Back from shopping and have spent ££ but on kids clothes, skylanders stuff, talking minion but nothing for me. I repeat, nothing for me. The trouble with having such an exact wish list is that you can't bloody find anything you want.

Anyway, moving on. shop lovely peacoat. I saw your coat in m&s and that too is lovely. I can see why you want black boots to go with it.

mig that's utterly fantastic news. Well done.

marsha I forgot to respond to the London question. If I was taking dd (7) I would take her to art galleries (she'd love to see some famous paintings) and to the theatre to see either Matilda or Charlie and the chocolate factory. Then we'd travel to the Harry potter studios the following day. Ds (5) wouldn't be interested in anything except going to hamlets to buy skylanders!

I've put a photo of my dc on pin board. For some reason it looks really odd though.

Well done, Mignonette.

Blooming, I am following you on Pin, I'm suzmcgrath there. I have that Indian dowry box you pinned in pink in my daughters' room, it holds loads!

Liberty, it was so nice this morning that I felt mean taking DD2 shopping so we went to the park instead. I think I will take her to Matches to have a look at the Carven coat (they have toys in my local branch so she will be happy) this week and then head out for a few hours on Sunday on my own and check Burberry out then.

Peacoat looks great, Shop and get well soon.

Good luck with your surgery, One.

I'd like a talking minion, QueenC. :)

I have ash boots in navy in my basket. £100 with the 30% off. Do I buy????? I didn't think the code would work!

Do it Queenc :o

Buy! They will transcend seasons Queen

I've just had a try with coat, different jeans and boots.
Will do photos when the smaller size arrives in a few days.

Aaarrrggghhh. Can't believe I've just spent £100 on boots!!! Dh is going to kill me .

Shit, that's what happens when you can't find anything you like whilst shopping!

They probably won't fit anyway.

my boots

I blame clarks. I've been waiting for weeks for these to come in stock.

Queen They are lovely and such a change from the ubiquitous black. They are an investment and a perennial. I prefer them to the Clarks ones (even though they are cool too).

Much better than the Clarks ones QC.

I'm still in shock . It was such an impulse buy.

The Ash boots are much nicer than the Clarks ones, QC.

Turquoise, did you buy the 5050s in Russell & Bromley? They will exchange them for you. If you didn't they have great repairs and will send them off.

dec I meant to say that the talking minion is very cute! I think ds will love him!

Gorgeous boots, Queen C Happy days.
Glad the pea coat s a keeper shop, hope you feel better soon.

Queen am imagining your DD's tripping about in your shoes.

this is the pink ganni coat I was talking about earlier
