Shop Harry likes older women though, reckon you'd stand a good chance. Grin
Zoe looks amazing in skinnies and heels, I think the women have been told to wear sparkly dresses. She would be better in something sleeker....
Right, off to bed.
Every day I vow not to come on here too much.....every day I fail Smile

Dry by older I assume you mean 30? And yes, that's why I think I'm being quite realistic that it could actually happen! I'm better than Caroline Flack anyday! Ha!

QueenCadbury · 16/11/2013 07:03

Eww, ladies, 1D? Seriously? Grin

Has anyone seen DMBL40 and her h&m marant haul? I love the blouse she got but not too sure about the rest.

QueenCadbury · 16/11/2013 07:10

There's still lots of marant left if anyone's interested...

shopafrolic · 16/11/2013 08:32

Morning all.
Have a fun day today Dry

BrandyAlexander · 16/11/2013 08:47

Morning all. It was a bad night with sick children.Sad I don't feel too clever myself and dh is off in a couple of hours for a day of drinking at Twickenham. It's going to be a looong day!

shopafrolic · 16/11/2013 09:12

Boo Novice hope you all feel better soon
Fashion related disaster here today. DH bought me a cup of tea in bed. Never happens. When I woke up I knocked the full cup of tea over (didn't expect it to be there) and it landed on my CREAM (yes I'm shouting) AV Tom sweat that I had left on the floor (I know, I know) the night before. BUGGERATION.

Drywhiteplease · 16/11/2013 09:37

Soak it immediately shop.... Do u have any vanish?
Watching TV on my phone on the train.... modern technology is bloody incredible Grin

Poor novice! Can someone come and help you whilst DH is away?

Oh no shop! Quick wash on wool cycle with special wool detergent?

dry have a lovely time today. Your outfit sounds fab!

What's all this One Direction talk! Shock

That H Styles looks like a very selfish lover who would shag you whilst winking at himself in the mirror and checking if his hair was still ok. Grin

Sorry shop!

MarshaBrady · 16/11/2013 09:40

Shop noo. Yes soak.

Dry have fun! Noo don't make that vow Grin

Sleep good luck for the grading.

MarshaBrady · 16/11/2013 09:41

I can't join in the 1D chat, I never see them in anything.

MarshaBrady · 16/11/2013 09:44

Oh Novice hope today isn't too rotten. And you feel better soon.

That H&M stuff still quite ££. Would be annoyed if it's terrible quality. Well if I got any if it.

BrandyAlexander · 16/11/2013 09:52

Oh no Shop! That happened to us once when we were house sitting at dpils. Dh brought me a cup of tea. Lord knows how but he got rewarded with sex and we knocked over the tea. Then couldn't explain to a furious dmil how it had happenedBlush

Linus, no, my nanny has gone home for the weekend so all on my lonesome. I was supposed to be going to theatre tonight so I might give my nanny the tickets instead. I actually feel a little better with some paracetamol.

QueenCadbury · 16/11/2013 09:58

Grin at linus and the comment about Harry.

novice get dh to cancel his twickenham trip. Although if he's anything like my dh that's never going to happen. Mine is peeved that I'm going away so he can't watch it in peace on the tv or pub Grin. Seriously though, hope you feel better soon.

shop dh will never bring you a cup of tea again.

BrandyAlexander · 16/11/2013 10:05

Ha!Ha!Ha!Ha!Ha!Ha!Ha!Ha!Ha!Ha!Ha!Ha! At the thought of dh cancelling the rugby!

I have just seen this beauty. Me likeky!

QueenCadbury · 16/11/2013 10:07

I totally forgot that I ordered this cardigan the other day. Yes, I know it's country casuals and I was worried it may be frumpy but it's the perfect colour so I had to give it a go. It's arrived and is indeed the perfect colour, I actually really like the detailing on it and styled right it won't look frumpy at all. But it's huge. I've only tried it on over my cycling gear so will have a proper try on later. It might be that it's better done up rather than open so I need to have a play.

QueenCadbury · 16/11/2013 10:10

It was tongue in cheek novice. Me or the dc would literally have to be dying for dh to give up twikkers tickets Grin. Have you ever been? I went once as he was desperate to show me how good it is. I was Confused about it all and said next time to spend the money on a handbag Grin. Now we have the m4 between us and twickenham he doesn't go anymore.

Drywhiteplease · 16/11/2013 10:53

Twickers is amazing! Fr v Eng a few yrs ago was fab!!!!

OP posts:
shopafrolic · 16/11/2013 12:34

I didn't read that as winking Linus Grin
And Queen that was exactly what DH said - that he'd better not do it again!
Off to check how the AV has washed - not hopeful.
In other fashion news - acrylic scarf + wool jumper = electric shock. Who knew?

shopafrolic · 16/11/2013 12:48

DH would throw the tea over me if he thought he'd get rewarded with sex Novice Grin

Drywhiteplease · 16/11/2013 13:38

Gutted... No coat on JCrew and no jumper for shop could cry!!! Not impressed!

OP posts:
LinusDKD · 16/11/2013 13:42

I prefer the MaxMara coat you linked a couple of weeks ago novice

That jumper is a gorgeous colour queenc

How 's the patient the jumper shop ?

DPIL are staying the weekend so DMIL brought the red Hush dress over (had it delivered there because customs duties her are ridiculous) and even though it fits lovely, I have to get used to the colour. It is a kind of mulberry/burgundy red.

How the same dress in different colours can be so different! DH said
I looked lovely though. Wink

Making a Tom Kerridge dessert for tonight: lemon possets with fennel biscotti.

And later I'll start on the slow-roasted shoulder of lamb with pommes boulangère and some roasted parsnips and carrots on the side.

LinusDKD · 16/11/2013 13:43

Oh no dry! That is rubbish!

Go to Selfridges to drown your sorrows! ;-)

shopafrolic · 16/11/2013 13:45

That is rubbish Dry - do they not stock everything that they have online then?
