The Meow is an XL so huge on me now - was thinking I might sell it but now it's got the Marsha seal of approval I'll take another look…...

MarshaBrady · 01/11/2013 18:45

I looked at your wardrobe board! Grin. But might be uncomfortable if too big.

I really like the bird a&w one too. Redferne crew.

LinusDKD · 01/11/2013 18:45

How about a cream top?

I have no idea what I am going to wear for dinner with DH on Monday but my Loubs might get their bi-annual outing as we will be going there and coming back by taxi.

MarshaBrady · 01/11/2013 18:46

Oh you must Linus. Work from the shoe up.

LinusDKD · 01/11/2013 18:48

Angold Shirt with biker? (Looked at your board too shop)

Maybe I will wear my black Sportmax dress with leather trimmed neckline.....

Annianni · 01/11/2013 18:55

AV plum tee
And your Muubaa

Annianni · 01/11/2013 18:56

With some dangly necklaces.
Will decide on shoes now...
:o

Annianni · 01/11/2013 18:59

Have you not pinned your lkb shoe boots?

Annianni · 01/11/2013 19:02

Our furniture is a mix of Habitat, Laura Ashley and JL.

LinusDKD · 01/11/2013 19:09

We recently bought new furniture and we eventually went for a Belgian brand called Flamant (not sure if available in the UK) but we did like the UK brand Neptune as well.

No idea about the quality but JL sells some of their stuff so should be ok.

shopafrolic · 01/11/2013 19:39

Right - no pin of LKB shoe boots but black, squared off toe with gold plate tip and a gold band around the base of the heel. Sound hideous but are lush - can't walk too far. Black coated skinnies, J Crew black deep v tee. Rose gold MK watch and YSL Arty. My GHD hair Straighteners just caught fire! Scary moment. They are about 10 years old though to be fair. I'll have to do. DS was playing up - I swear they know when you're going out.
Anni I may well go with your outfit on Sunday or Linus'
Thanks all - have a lovely evening……...

QueenCadbury · 01/11/2013 19:42

What did you decide to wear shop? We haven't bought furniture for ages as we inherited a load of antique stuff. Other than that we have a few pieces from next or from local pine/oak shops.

Well done one, that's absolutely fantastic!

I've just tried my dress on and decided on my black patent peep toes. Dh was pissing himself as I struggled into it asking why I'd buy a dress that I can't get myself into and out of. Let's just hope we're not too drunk tomorrow that he can't get me out of it Grin

shopafrolic · 01/11/2013 19:43

Oh yes! Sorry - huge congrats on weight loss One - that's amazing!
Right - going now.

OneLittleLady · 01/11/2013 19:43

shopafrolic · 01/11/2013 23:14

libertychick · 01/11/2013 23:40

Grin at the Black and Decker dream Dry!
Thanks all for being so nice today.

A link - This Topshop cardi is really lovely and looks and feels way more expensive than it is - shape wasn't quite right on me unfortunately but could be a great buy. It's available in a few colours...the grey is a gorgeous bluey shade.

Turquoiseblue · 02/11/2013 04:46

Oh sleepless night!
Happy birthday ThanksThanksThanksWineWineWine to the birthday ladies. Enjoy the celebrations.

Just a quick little link this skirt
I picked it up on impulse last weekend as I couldn't see anything else I liked. it s so plain I know it s not very exciting but it s so easy simple and versatile- not High end or unusual, just a great little easy jersey skirt. Delighted with it had tried a whistles version but this is better on me- it s quick thick jersey and no baubles after wear / wash. Highly recommend.
Thanks Linus for the bag link.Thanks, have my heart set on the other colour. Ordered the AH one I pinned will wait to see what it looks like when it arrives.

QueenCadbury · 02/11/2013 06:43
