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.

I'm v impressed with those from M&S - shame the black ones aren't more pony skin and less suede…… They're a good contender Grumpy?

Marsha - are you coping? Thinking of you!
I'm wearing the new grey I&I today - it's lovely and warm, with Paige straight legs and snakeskin black wedge boots. (reminded of them by Grumpy's search)

Style CV!!! Ok let me think...

I just turned 40 yesterday Xmas Grin, so I was a 90's girl and sometimes I find the 90's try to creep into my sartorial choices...I try to keep them at bay though!

I work in a very corporate environment so most of my work clothes come from Adolfo Dominguez although sometimes I throw items from Whistles.

On the weekends, I see myself more of an All Saints girl although I try to tone it down because, well, age!

My shoe size is a UK 2, which means that for most of my twenties and early thirties I couldn't wear heels Sad but this all got better with the discovery of the best online shop for small feet and also when Louboutin started doing small sizes.

The latest bags I bought/was gifted were a great Aspinal one for work and a Mulberry Alexa.

For my birthday yesterday, I wore this Milly dress.

That enough? Xmas Grin

Hi - thank you all for the warm welcome. I have no style which is why I follow this thread!! My only recent purchase are these lovelies which are very nice indeed - great quality & shamelessly copied from here //www.avenue57.com/a57/look/11815/fake-tan-disaster.aspx.
I would love to be able to wear with trainers but am too dumpy so will try for something like this as a casual look //www.aintnomomjeans.com/2013/01/soooooare-leggings-pants.html
Will try & drop by more - it's nice here!

Noooooo, I'm seem to be coming down with some kind of bug! I don't have time for this!
Anyway thanks to everyone for the kind words about my weightloss/inch loss. I'm really pleased and am determined to stick it out until I lose enough weight to feel comfortable!

Dh and I are walking around saying, really good and doing post party chat. Does anyone else love that? Grin

Was fabulous, intense in parts and had just enough party bags, cake and pass the parcel.

Welcome what and Because.

I will never be able to catch up!

Went to a mum Xmas mu ,yesterday,I wore my equipment emerald shirt with leather By malene birger skinnies,and rockstuds,they got lots of admiration! And became the main topic of the evening!

We are going to an Xmas party tonight,will wear the rockstuds again with this this dress, bought it as another party dress, it turns out we are attending 2 more parties next week,and I can't keep wearing the black vanessa Bruno dress Blush,

Welcome all newbies! Love your cv because, what do stay! And yes it's very nice here!

umlauf safe journey!

novice you are right! Its nice to hear compliments! Earlier this week dh and I were doing last minute shopping we bumped into someone he works with, that I met a couple of years ago and have not seen since,I told him that we met before, and he said: believe mrs s,I would have remembered meeting someone beautiful as you! dh said that's because you were too drunk! Grin , I was on high all day! Dh was not amused though! He was a bit Angry,

mig I could never do that! I would have got in a taxi much safer! Dh. Gave me a rolex date just for my 30th, and someone at a newsstand told me better be cAreful ,its an expensive watch,I got suspicious with the way he said it,so I told him oH no! Its fake!, its very dangerous in London, I hear many terrible stories about wealthy Arabs being mugged on the street,one lady lost her finger! Shock!

I haven't been able to catch up yet but I wanted to say welcome to the Newbies! Please stay, we can always do with some new ideas.

Is it too early for a White Lady? It's nearly 6 o'Clock, right?

Marsha love the post party debrief relief . Glad it went well, DS will remember it for a long time. Am bracing myself for the roller disco kick off 7pm dd has been doing her hair for hours and I think I saw some glitter eyeliner too. Maybe I should bring out my gold hot pants and leg warmersXmas Grin..... Actually think stone biker,stone shoe boots,black skinnies would be more impressive, need to be cool mum in front of 13 yr old girls !!!!!
