MNVogue thread - Vol 27

[Mignonette]

Are you a glass half full fashion fanatic? Come and join our friendly thread and chat about anything fashion related and more. It's nice here. All welcome.

Carrie, I have both Lure and Misfits. I wear the Lure more but the Misfits look good with biker boots, I think.

Also hate NYE, much prefer to spend it at home with a nice bottle of wine and Jools Holland.

I got a great pair of biker boots in Russell and Bromley this morning, really went to buy DD2 snow boots.

Love the top and skirt too, Sleep.

Natalie Joos just replied to my request about the blue bag that was photographed on her 'Terms Of Endearment' blog. How kind of her to respond so fast. She is going to find out.

Justa you will! I love the natural version. You know how some people have rounder faces even when very slim, eg Miranda Kerr. I always think it looks fabulous.

Sleep great outfit.

Carrie yes see what you mean too, I think the virtuals are a good bet.

Another person I love on my pin is the man repeller. Fashionista's fashion

I've been to many fantastic parties, but think I can say that none of them have fallen on NYE. Always too fraught with trying to get around.

And in the biggest and fastest U TURN .........I have ordered the Zara J Crew copies, I blame YOU Sleep ..... ...... Perhaps they won't fit, I've never had success with Zara shoes hopes they fit Damn, absolutely no will power

Decam they sound good, were they on sale?

Ah Dry Dry dry dry...

Thanks for the comments about shorts. I need to have a trying on session and post some pics.

sleep in theory I love the sound of your outfit but I'm not sure about the top. I absolutely love the black halter neck though.

juta it was the dark grey from last year that I wanted too!

carrie you sound like you love the black ones most? I thought I wanted grey jeans until I tried some on and then somehow they didn't seem to work on me.

Not sure I could ever have work or fillers etc. I'd be far too scared of anything going wrong.

Still trying to chase these bloody parcels with yodel. The courier is trying to tell me that he delivered them on Sunday even though yodel say they are with him

Hahaha dry!

sleep I like that halterneck top a lot!

mig that's because she's 'Belgian-born'

QueenC you wear your shorts and I'll wear my new "quite short for me" dress on Saturday.

OK, currently pinning to MNV board. My legs look really stumpy in each picture - either they're actually like that, or it's the angle my 8YO took the pictures at . Actually, they all look much of a muchness TBH. Some are blurry too, which doesn't help you guys - soz .

It must be linus . From the land of perfect Frites and chocolates and Belgian Prune Pie. Oh and great directional fashion. Have you all seen her blog here? it is very Fashion-y.

I like the Lure best on you, Carrie.

No, Marsha, unfortunately not in the sale (not sure when their sale starts) but they said they were unlikely to be included anyway. I got these.

They are gorgeous Decam, love them. Worth it I say!

they are great decam

carrie have responded on pin. I think in all but the black you should size down! you are way too slim for those jeans. will keep an eye out for pale grey goldsigns for you. x

Love the bikers Decam. They are perfect!

You are hilarious Dry but those shoes are very 'you' so worth trying at least.

Justa hooded eyes are where the eyelid is invisible due to eye shape or skin above the eyelids drooping with age. My issue is that one eye is very hooded and the other not so much and it seems to be getting more pronounced - if they were both the same I wouldn't care either way as I think hooded eyes can look quite sexy. It's the fact that when I put on eye makeup it looks like I have only done one eye that's bothering me!!!

Gah.... I wish I hadn't mentioned the damn hooded eyes!!! I'm just staring in the mirror obsessively again after convincing myself they were ok....

Liberty you have lovely eyes. I haven't notice what you have, I bet no one has. Step away from the mirror you have nothing to worry about!

I know Marsha it's bloody ridiculous!!! Thanks for the reassurance. I am going to stop talking about it now

Ah don't worry it happens to everyone. If you mention something then it sticks out like a sore thumb in your brain!

It certainly wasn't noticeable in the photos you posted, Liberty. Just sing to yourself "When Irish Eyes Are Smiling".

Carrie, Foxy is right, I think the misfits look too big on you.

Thanks, I love the boots, will have to wear them a lot to get the CPW down.

Also, Liberty, when you are ready to leave DD with a babysitter, Sitters are really good. I get the babysitter to come before DD2 goes to bed, then I put her to bed, means we have to stay local but at least I know she's asleep so I prefer it.

Good tip re Sitters Decam thanks. (and re singing!!)

Decam my friend has those boots,never out of them,well worth it, great and keep her feet warm and toasty. Fab.

Have you ever stared at your nose in the mirror? It really does seem to grow intellectual observation of the evening

Hooded eyes liberty I really didn't notice but there's an eyeshadow trick, light on lid,darker to shade the socket.....but I find if I lift my eyebrows in an exaggerated surprised look my hoods disappear and I look a Pratt
Botox is on my NY list now that my wardrobe is complete eye job if I were brave enough would be next.
