Photos... You know where...

Boden delivery is here.
The spot merino sweater is hideous on me.
I resemble a cbeebies presenter... :o

I love the honeycomb jumper, but I think I need a smaller size.
I've included a photo of today's outfit, to compare.
Please ignore the slippers... We're having a lazy day.

OneLittleLady · 28/10/2013 10:47

I think the jumper is nice anni but agree that you need a smaller size

Annianni · 28/10/2013 11:01

Thanks One.
It's a lovely thick knit, I'll see what the smaller size is like.

I also ordered a breton, but it looks awful on me it's going straight back.

Annianni · 28/10/2013 11:02

Dry pm!

A size down will be much better on you, Anni, looks good.

The Hush dress looks lovely on you, Linus.

My Cocosa Tommy Hilfiger peacoat was way too big. I have found some good things on Yoox and The Outnet but I suppose there is often a reason it ends up discounted.

You are funny with your nap talk, Liberty and Shop! I do boring things like cook and clean in that time. And now it looks like DD2 has dropped her nap anyway.

Have just received these MIH Paris jeans from the HOF sale for £35, really pleased with them.

Hello everyone! Yes, I am flying tonight. BA are still saying I am flying. My trains were cancelled so I have been at home with ds all day semi working and semi playing with ds. He's so cuddlySmile.

Glad everyone survived the storm - very nerve wracking as our new house comes with has two huge trees next to the house. I feel very sorry for the poor folks with no water, heat or electricity. Other than travel chaos, we have been very lucky.

Decam Envy at £35 MiH Paris. Well done!

Yeh me too well done!

Thanks for pm. So close!

Good response from them shop

Have a new eating plan for this week (under advice, not a crazy diet I've found on the net) and by god, it's only day one of eating every three hours and I'm starving! I have honestly not registered actual hunger like this in years! I'm slowly cutting my caffeine intake and I feel alright about it, I'm enjoying my fruit and green teas a lot more than usual.

Feel ok about my outfit choice today, khaki skinnies, a dark blue oversize t-shirt with black flowers printed on it and black slipper flats. Not exciting by anyones standards but it's ok, I've made worse choices!

Just reading article in times T2 about the clothes women wear that men hate......but ,apart from short skirts, high heels and tight tops, it doesn't really list anything they actually like Hmm. Quite funny though.

OneLittleLady · 28/10/2013 17:57

I'd like to see an article about the clothes men wear that women hate! there must be one somewhere surely?

BrandyAlexander · 28/10/2013 20:11

Oh that's very good response Shop. Well done! I am waiting to fly. Wearing my T by Alexander Wang knitted hoodie, over a long tee by Primark and banana republic cords. Plus Skechers. My bag for the week.....Mulberry Bayswater in leopard moleskin. Have never used it for a travel bag so we will see how it fares. Tucked inside it are my lovely soft travel pjs, cashmere scarf and cashmere socks. I won't be cold!Grin

One, little and often works for me. Good luck!

Tough it out dry you can do it! And if not, I'm willing to offer you a sofa and a clean duvet. You'd have to share with the cat though Wink
