Foxy I think our work is much smaller than yours. All we've done is knock kitchen and dining through, re plastered , put in bifolding doors, lay new flooring, change lighting from halogen to LED ,Replace all downstairs doors (9). More or less done in under 3 weeks and my fantastic decorator came today to seal the doors (we are matt varnishing them)...adore the smell, may be high Smile. He'll come back after half term.....I have a toddler visiting so no workmen. V pleased.....just need furniture .Smile

Hi everyone, some gorgeous links, especially from Linus [stern look] - that Balenciaga top is gorgeous but £Shock. I am completely in love with those Valentino heels too. Love that parka Shop. And your halter neck Dry Smile.

How is shoulder this evening Foxy?

DD's teachers on strike today, so I took her into Covent Garden for a wander. Had a lovely time, first proper girls shopping trip, she would have had half of Zara given free rein Grin. The traffic was stopped because of the teachers demonstrating Marsha.

Drywhiteplease · 18/10/2013 07:57

Love the parka - I had it on a wish list until I decided I needed boots more.
Rainy and miserable here today, gloves hat and scarf on with winter coat, so feeling cosy.
Dry that halterneck is lovely.
I m desperately looking for a grey and black crew neck sweater, for wearing with pencil skirts. Anyone seen any nice ones ?
J crew out of budget I m afraid.

foxysocks · 18/10/2013 08:54

thanks shop. still mulling it over. fear have lost my heart....

Annianni · 18/10/2013 08:55

Morning all...

MrsR about to pm you.

MarshaBrady · 18/10/2013 09:46

Morning.

Ah Sleep thanks, makes sense. It was a standstill.

Must admit have been feeling out of it since finishing the projects. Extra vague. Think it's the niceness of feeling released!

Shop that's quite tough. Hope he appreciates your extra effort.

Liberty how's work? Hope things are a bit better.

MarshaBrady · 18/10/2013 09:47

Dry lovely top, that colour will look fabulous on you.

foxysocks · 18/10/2013 12:37
