Decam are you ordering from Burberry? How exciting!

libertychick · 04/10/2013 21:33

Yes, cheques still taking days to clear seems mad. I'm excited for you. Will be waiting for the update!

Dry, I am having a night in with a cup of peppermint tea as doing Sober October for Macmillan.

I checked my account and have just enough so ordered it! This one, is it the same pea coat you like, Ruby? Burberry have free returns in case I don't love it.

Carrie did you like the Aigle Cuckmere? I think it is a great coat.

MrsSheepiness · 04/10/2013 22:08

Evening all, I haven't had much time to catch up on the thread this week but have been following what everyone is pinning, such a difficult time for a spending ban!!

Decam I saw your coat in Selfridges today, it is beautiful.

libertychick · 04/10/2013 22:09

Hope it's perfect when it arrives Dec - what a gorgeous coat.

GrumpyOldHorsewoman · 04/10/2013 22:14

Sorry to hear that one - hope things pick up for you soon.
Dry your friend needs a slap. I don't know why people think it's OK to encourage boys to drink, I'll bet he wouldn't have bought a bunch of under age girls a drink.
Decam we bank with Lloyds and, unless we bank a cheque on a Monday, it doesn't clear until the following week! PITA.

So the Mango jacket arrived and I couldn't love it more - it is exactly what I was hoping for. And the leather is gorgeous too, it looks really high end. Bit pissed off that Asos order has yet to arrive, esp as it was suposed to be free next day delivery and I got the dispatch notification on Weds evening. Also awaiting some new Baxters and a burgundy wool fedora which fell into my basket from Topshop.

I have decided I want a chic tuxedo for my cousin's wedding in December. Can you stylish ones help me find something that I won't need to take out a mortgage to buy?

GrumpyOldHorsewoman · 04/10/2013 22:16

X-post, Decam that coat is seriously gorgeous. Well done! Absolutely beautiful.

AmberNectarine · 04/10/2013 22:29

Yay for decam and her Burberry. Sorry for putting you off the Carven.

Never got hangovers until I was in my 20s, used to get in an absolute mess as a teen and be fine. Worst I've ever been was on my hen night though. Had to spend 2 days in bed after that- grim. Agree irresponsible of your friend dry, but hopefully DS will have learnt his lesson (however unlikely!)

Am so bored of wear PJs/leggings/track pants now. Want to feel better and wear a nice dress.

Decameron · 04/10/2013 22:33

No, you were right, Amber and I didn't want to waste my one off My-W code! How are you feeling?

Decameron · 04/10/2013 22:34

And apologies for droning on so much about the coat. Grin

Drywhiteplease · 04/10/2013 22:35

Decam lovely lovely coat! love how it is tailored at the back.
Amber you'll be back to normal soon .....good to hear from you

Lovely lovely coat Decam.
Did you get anything with the Matches code?

GrumpyOldHorsewoman · 04/10/2013 23:07

OK - new challenge for you ladies. Scratch the Tuxedo - I've just bought this tuxedo blazer, got the last one! I would like some black satin trousers to go with it, pref flat-fronted, cigarette style pants. I've tried the usual suspects (nada) have any of you style mavens seen anything remotely like that around?

Decameron · 04/10/2013 23:17

I didn't Anni but thanks anyway. There are loads of thimgs I covet there but broke now!

Hope your Asos order appears, Grumpy and glad you like your Mango jacket. There was an article in the Sunday Times a while ago about Karen Millen doing made to measure tuxedos.

Drywhiteplease · 05/10/2013 09:00

thanks everyone Thanks

Hopefully he will be seen this coming week and they will have a proper plan of action in place sooner rather than later.

BrandyAlexander · 05/10/2013 10:40

Morning all! Just off to try on shoe boots at Russell and Bromley!

We have 10 viewings at the house today so we are leaving estate agents to it.

foxysocks · 05/10/2013 10:59

Yay decam! Gorgeous coat

Pic is you know where,mhaving confidence crisis. Anyone around to advise? Have horrific period pain, everything I put on making me feel grim, yuuuuck

BrandyAlexander · 05/10/2013 12:11

Hey foxy! Totally love the outfit. Smile

BrandyAlexander · 05/10/2013 12:51

MarshaBrady · 05/10/2013 13:27

Me too. You look fabulous Foxy.

GrumpyOldHorsewoman · 05/10/2013 13:53

Dry I owe you a big bunch of Flowers! The trews on Farfetch are exactly what I had in mind. I'm going to get them now so I have time to get them altered for a perfect fit if I need to. Thank you!

Before I ordered the tux jacket, I thought I'd found the perfect suit on Reiss, languishing at the top of the 'suiting' page. Annoyingly, I couldn't find any of the components on the page - it seems the model is wearing a suit that's not actually for sale. Why do they do that?
