Liberty and Foxy that Boden Breton is a 12 I think. I'm usually an 8 on top, sometimes a 10 to accommodate my boobs. The 12 is actually quite a decent fit - I was worried it might have been big but wouldn't have wanted to go much smaller actually.

Quality of sloppy joe dress pretty good. I only really wear it with leggings on slobbing about days. It's very comfy.

Good evening everyone! Had a fast uneventful flight with BA, all on time and the airport's only twenty mins away from Brothers house so fast transit time.

I am wearing a baby. Am happily mumsnetting whilst my niece tries to smash the keyboard to bits and older niece performs a fashion show up and down the living room. She has achieved wonders with her physio and am so proud of them all for their perseverance and courage.

Frankfurt looks lovely in the distance (lights twinkling away in the distance from the terrace) and hopefully will get to do some sightseeing and shopping there tomorrow.

Have already eaten some gorgeous prune jam too. Have introduced my Brother and SIL to the SN boards on here so hopefully they'll get some support and maybe meet other parents of SN children in their country.

Have a lovely time tomorrow. Will be thinking about you all.

Evening all. Hope you all have a great time at the MU!
Would love to be a fly on the wall to see all your outfits, its bound to be a stylish gathering. Will be back when I have caught up with everything.

Got my train and underground tockets, kindle, ipod and camera charged, clothes hung up and ready to go. Happily orgainised Grin

libertychick · 11/10/2013 21:14

Sounds like worth a try in a 14 Foxy - it's a great top, I wear it a lot and it has washed really well.

So good to hear that your DN is doing well Mig. I love prune jam.

It had better not rain tomorrow!!

shopafrolic · 11/10/2013 21:15

Camera One? No pics at MU..... It's Vogue law. :)
Amber how are you feeling now?
Mig you sound so happy. Lovely. X

OneLittleLady · 11/10/2013 21:19

foxysocks · 11/10/2013 21:23

thanks so much for feedback guys. will ponder them both.

DH now has a link to my 'considering' board for present ideas, he loved the golden goose sneakers that I shamelessly nicked from tiff wendel blog but as soon as he clicked through to the price they were discounted, dammit!!

shopafrolic · 11/10/2013 21:31

Linus Chinti and Parker or Equipment blouse for me

OneLittleLady · 11/10/2013 21:37

Linus if it were my choice, I'd go for this

foxysocks · 11/10/2013 21:43

that C&P is divine

MarshaBrady · 11/10/2013 21:49

Equipment shirt and these

Gorgeous stuff Linus.

Dh is out, and sprang it on me last minute. Taken ages to get the dc to bed as they were waiting for him.

LinusDKD · 11/10/2013 21:50

mig such good news about your DN! And you sound really happy!

So everyone is choosing something different from my wishlist. Grin

That camo Splendid jumper is lovely but really a bit out of my comfort zone as it is a jumper (and I am more of a cardigan girl) and it is camo (and I have never owned anything camo in my life)

I am very tempted by the equipment shirt but am a bit worried that I will only wear it when I go out which is not very often. And I don't know what the sizing is like and as I would have to order it from Shopbop I need to get it right.

I had lots more leather pencil skirts on my wishlist but have decided that with my current lifestyle (nappies, purees, snot etc) they would not be worn a lot.

MarshaBrady · 11/10/2013 21:50

Love the C&P and the cardigan too.

MarshaBrady · 11/10/2013 21:51

Can you tell we are enjoying helping you shop Linus? Grin

LinusDKD · 11/10/2013 21:52

Bad, bad Mr.Marsha Angry

MarshaBrady · 11/10/2013 21:56

I know. He's off the hook, just. But on a Friday night when all you want to do is relax and they segue breezily to a lovely place for drinks. And you're surrounded by lego.

Well my turn tomorrow. hahaha

shopafrolic · 11/10/2013 22:00

Oh yes, he will pay........

MarshaBrady · 11/10/2013 22:03

Grin. Have left the ingredients for a lasagne. He can do that. Actually he quite enjoys making lasagnes. No idea why.

Is your mil coming over still Shop is that right?

LinusDKD · 11/10/2013 22:04

Mwahahahaha! Maybe another trip to Liberty?

Do you think the equipment shirt would suit a self-diagnosed winter?

Thank God the P. Lim bag is sold out because I would be really tempted.

OneLittleLady · 11/10/2013 22:04

Marsha you'll have to drink at least 80% of my share of the fizz as I can't drink much other wise I would be a drooling mess and no one needs to see that Grin

shopafrolic · 11/10/2013 22:04

Nope. MIL cancelled so DH and DS home alone. Hmm

shopafrolic · 11/10/2013 22:08

Right, I'm off to get my beauty sleep. Night all x
