Pretty shocking for a button to fall off after only a few wears tbh Shop if I'd spent that much on a coat, I'd expect better. I've had coats costing less than a quarter of that and had no buttons fall of despite constant wear so I would expect better of something at that price.

Marsha have you seen the Frye boots on brand alley?
There's some nice ones...

Good to hear that one
novice houses with original features really agree well to strong colors, but i wouldnt use strong colors for family room,often people will get bored and will re paint in a matter of a year.
i personally don't believe in big rooms mean strong color theory,many small rooms look great with strong dark colors,its how you decorate it that matters,

Regarding the kids rooms,I a gree with one,they will soon get over sharing a room,

That shouldn't have happened Shop, but I'm not surprised.
The amount of things I've bought over the years, that have needed repairing is shocking.

Novice my parents old house had stupidly high ceilings, it was decorated with dark colours when we moved in. They re-did it in lighter ones and it felt much better.

I would decorate a room each for the dc's and then let them sleep over wherever.
That would also come in handy, if anyone was ill in the night. Easier to get them into a clean room/bed instead of fannying about with bedding at silly o'clock.

The buttons fell of my DVF and Alberta Ferretti coats soon after I bought them. It shouldn't happen but often does.

Dry, thanks for the photo. Those bracelets are what I was thinking of getting.

Nice shopping with the Hudsons, Anni.

Fleece is very sensible with rising energy prices! I have a Hush fleece dressing gown on the way.

Shop, I have another book recommendation for you: The Round House by Louise Erdrich. Fascinating.

Frye boots got me through many a New York winter, off to check that sale out. Thanks Anni.

Thanks Decam
The Outnet have emailed back overnight asking for pics so we'll see......
Sleep my food diary is ready! (And v bad ). Where should I send it?

Marsha pm... Found you some proper snowboots! :o

And they are sensible, with no heels, in a practical colour... So you'll hate them!

Haha thanks Anni! They are proper ones! Am going to ponder that for a minute. Out of my zone

Shop have put a jumper on mnv. Can see you in the outfit.

They aren't the prettiest of things, but you'd be warm and dry. And they're cheap! then you could get the Choo's or those impractical F&B's :o

Haha that's true. I am in Shoreditch this week and there's a new F&B store close by. Will see how they are and if can complement with those ones. thank you!

Morning!

one it's good to hear you are feeling good about yourself!

santa impressive shopping. I was also tempted by the ShopBop sale but nothing really grabbed me.

It is hard living in a different country than your loved ones and saying goodbye after a visit. Once, when DS cried when he had to say goodbye to DP's after a visit, DF (who is the least emotional person I know!) had tears in his eyes.

novice I would also decorate each DC's room separately and focus on the accessories as well. Hello Kitty and Thomas the Tank Engine might be their favourite at the moment but we all know that can change overnight.

shop good to hear The Outnet have responded.

I forgot who it was who had to e-mail head office in France to complain about customer service at a shop in London, but did you ever hear back from them?

Marsha they have the Chloe coat in charcoal grey!! Will Pin on MNV.....

Shop you are a star!

I just love this blouse on Emma Thompson.

Not sure about the skirt but the blouse is just perfect on her.

You HAVE to buy it. They have all sizes - I'm having the palpitations!

Me too. Have pm'd you

Shop you are fantastic. Have bought it. Need a lie down now

Phew! Am off for a Darjeeling to calm down xxxx

Well done marsha!

I am tempted by a navy SbC coat but I'm also still pining after that second hand coat I saw last week.

Oh am so tempted by that it is lovely. If only it were navy. Plus have just bought navy coat too. Sizing advice please shop? V tempted to see it and compare!
Excellent Marsha glad you got it.

Just seen sizing advice! Will debate what to do. Who bought 2 coats recently, dry? Shop? If so are you getting wear from both?
Tartan scarf is lovely and soft thanks amber for the tip re EWM

I have the classic Frye Campus boots. They are heavy but do the job whilst making you feel like Ali McGraw in Love Story without the fatal illness
