Calling on style and fashion fanatics, this is the space for frivolity and fun (though it gets a bit tense at sales time) Wink. All welcome.

LinusDKD · 24/12/2013 07:35

Morning!

Wow it is stormy here as well! DH and I are driving to Antwerp to go and have a look at some lighting shops and pick up DM cake order, but I don't really fancy driving today.

Safe travels for anyone who's on the road today!

Setting off after lunch. Lovely day out. Hopefully it will stay like that.
I'm sure I'll have wifi but if I don't you know London is so behind us up north Xmas Wink Happy Christmas to all my wonderful MNV friends.Xmas Smile and to all.
Grumpy not exactly sure when your wedding is but please pin a pic of your outfit, would love to see you in all your fabulousness. Infact I'd love to see lots of Christmas fashions.

Have just done myself the most appalling manicure......I'm super fussy with nail varnish, sure others won't notice.

OneLittleLady · 24/12/2013 10:42

Ahhh, disaster strikes! My brothers kitchen ceiling is pouring water, luckily the landlords, even though they are now shut, have an emergency repairs line. Someone's on their way round ASAP.

Merry Christmas all! Hope you're all on the nice list and Santa brings you wonderful things! Stay safe everyone who is travelling today Thanks Xmas Grin

QueenCadbury · 24/12/2013 10:45

I'm knackered!! Dropped dd off at nursery at 8, raced round waitrose and now busy cleaning (cleaner normally comes on a wednesday so obv not for the next 2 weeks!). Wishing I hadn't bothered painting my nails last night! I'm in festive chic of sweats and a vest. Will try and look better for church later Xmas Grin

Safe travels to everyone. It's lovely blue skies here now after the horrendous winds and rain last night.

WhattoWearNow · 24/12/2013 10:53

MarshaBrady · 24/12/2013 11:42

Love that Dry.

Good one Shop! Plus I was about to go out and you reminded me to wait Thanks

Cheapo glasses are here but they make me feel a bit queasy. The peripheral vision feels odd. Might have to return and go for C&G after all. Ach!

Mignonette · 24/12/2013 12:03

Safe journeys all. The east is settling now wind wise but A12 blocked in parts by fallen tree (I think).

Liberty Feel better soon. A hot buttered rum might help.

To all of you -

Have been doing some sales purchasing myself - have bought a Monica Vinader ring as part of my quest to build a collection of nice everyday jewellery, this dress and this mad but fabulous scarf. The Marant high tops have just arrived and are pretty darn awesome too, so all is well!

RubyLovesShopping · 24/12/2013 14:05

Me too! Just ordered the same ruched dress in navySmile and also the navy cowl neck top. Amber I was considering the green too (May yet order). I have the sleeveless version of those dresses in black and navy and they are so flattering.
Hope you all have an enjoyable Christmas xx

RubyLovesShopping · 24/12/2013 14:07

Dry I was debating the snood in navy or grey but waiting for further discount, 25% not enough!

AmberNectarine · 24/12/2013 14:48

I have the cap sleeved navy too Ruby - is a great dress. If I like the green colour I might get the top too.

BrandyAlexander · 24/12/2013 14:50

So I have to 'fess up. As I am sooo indecisive, I bought both the crimson red Pashli and the cobalt one and will make up my mind when I see them. it is all Linus' fault for suggesting that!

Amber and Ruby what's the sizing like for that dress, if I get a 6-8, is it on the generous side of a 6? I am mostly a 6 in most places but I can also be an 8 if it's a small cut. Thanks!
