Hope you got it Dry! There were some other Zarita fanciers. Hope someone gets one.

The acne peacoat is calling to me, but I cannot.

shopafrolic · 30/12/2013 20:14

I saw lots of acne there that I thought was good for you Marsha

Sleepwhenidie · 30/12/2013 20:15

argh Shop I knew I shouldn't have checked in..now I find myself with Goldsigns and SE bikers in my Anna basket....need to step away!

shopafrolic · 30/12/2013 20:18

I wondered about the Goldsigns too Sleep

Drywhiteplease · 30/12/2013 20:22

No I mustn't , not in my size anyway. I'm stepping away......

LinusDKD · 30/12/2013 20:26

Evening!

Got back home today! Can't wait to sleep in my own bed!

No real relaxing though as DBIL and his GF arrived an hour after us and are staying a week.

Will try and catch-up tomorrow.

shopafrolic · 30/12/2013 20:30

Welcome home linus

Drywhiteplease · 30/12/2013 20:32

this is so sweet
And this one

LinusDKD · 30/12/2013 20:37

marsha before I forget, they had a lovely pale blue Trio at Brown's fashion.

I spotted it when I walked past and was tempted to go in but was in a rush. They also had a yellow one, a Colemans Mustard-y yellow.

MarshaBrady · 30/12/2013 20:46

Welcome back Linus. They sound like the perfect ones. Thank you! Will have to get paid, but on the list.

OneLittleLady · 30/12/2013 22:31

Panto was great, very vibrant and lots of audience interaction. Pic you know where for further evaluation of weight loss/shape change. trying to take pictures as often as I remember to so I have a visual reference to keep checking in to.

Dry Look forward to your report on the premium denim. I have so far stuck mostly to high st denim but wonder what the difference is. The only fancy jeans I have is a pair of 7fam bootlegs which are more straight. They are v flattering but don't wear them much.
Marsha Lovely IM coat, you can totally carry it off. I also went to Liberty in the sale, some amazing bargains there esp in handbags. I only bought this dress though sessun dress
Linus welcome back. I would love a trio in any one of those colours!
Mig That is a really lovely dress.
Queenc hope you have warmed up!
I also bought these in the sale
cos jumper
for the bargain price of £29 at R&B I have had my eye on these for a while, great for the summer.
Here are the Tory Burch flats

(As you can prob tell, I love a nude shoe for the summer)

OneLittleLady · 30/12/2013 23:48

That dress is lovely Justa

shopafrolic · 31/12/2013 09:44

Morning all. 3yo party today! Wearing olive Lang coated skinnies, cream APC knit and taupe Jalouse.
What's everyone else up to this NYE?

foxysocks · 31/12/2013 10:10

morning shop, lovely outfit.

tidy up mission here today. DH has decided he is building an under-sofa storage drawer (WEEP), so I shall be staying well out of the way.

we are taking tree down, toys to be put away in bedrooms or aforementioned drawer, quick clean and ready for new beginnings tomorrow Grin

am planning on popping the fizz at around 5pm, we will have the rest of the olives and nuts as a starter, then making a big fish pie for the four of us for family supper. kids in bed, lovely red wine and cheese with a film till midnight or I fall asleep, betting the latter comes first.

foxysocks · 31/12/2013 10:32

oh god, the anna sale! why oh why did i look?!

RubyLovesShopping · 31/12/2013 10:44

Foxy I've just come to say the same. Filled a basket, pared it down and it's still £200. Will pin what I've got but not linking while still debating!

RubyLovesShopping · 31/12/2013 10:56

The two main items in my basket now out if stock Hmm

GrumpyOldHorsewoman · 31/12/2013 10:59

Morning all!

Had a read through the many pages I'd missed last night, so I feel as though I'm quite up to speed on all your Christmases - some great sales shopping going on too!

I'm exhausted as I don't think that I've ever crammed more into a three-week period than I have these past few weeks. Christmas has been a blur that has sped by without pausing to allow me to really enjoy it and I feel in need of a holiday no chance.

Have done a little online shopping, including stealing my youngest sister's style by buying this dress (which looks lovely IRL) and this coat (ditto). Also treated myself to a new sweater and, after seeing a girl of comparable colouring/size/shape to me wearing something similar at the wedding, this jacket.

Have to brave Nottingham this afternoon to return the jacket DH bought me for Christmas, so may have a brief scan of certain shops while I'm there, although frankly I'm too knackered to drum up much enthusiasm!

MarshaBrady · 31/12/2013 11:04

Oh no Ruby.

I'm off the hook with the Anna sale.

But feels good to have sent back MJ jumper, wondering whether to go in for orange one.

Anyone know about spirits and carbs. Sleep? Soz to ask here but cbb doing new thread. I gave dh some Laphroaig whiskey and slippers, salted nuts and wish I'd found a big knit in time, for Christmas - all ironic of course Wink but much-loved - anyway. My question is, does it have carbs? He has decided to cut back and do my eating too.

It says zero carbs on google, but really?

Barbie1 · 31/12/2013 11:04

Happy new year all Smile I think I'm the first to hit midnight? +9 gmt.

Kids asleep (just) so it's a quiet night with a DVD for us. The sick bug has wiped out all of our closest friends so meal and drinks had to be canceled. It's kind of nice to do nothing.

No more sale shopping for me, yet another box arrived for my birthday Shock so I'm guess I have more than enough coming to me shortly!

Who mentioned Elemis? I mentioned them a few threads ago, amazing products and well worth the money. The body oil melt is to die for.

Also check out the cowshed products, I stocked up while at babington house. A few small drops can transform any bathroom into a private spa! I do believe hof has a selection of products which are currently on sale...do avoid if
You aren't into aromatherapy smelling products though.

MarshaBrady · 31/12/2013 11:06

Grumpy I need to get on the mac to look at your links. But how was the wedding? You looked amazing in that fantastic outfit.

GrumpyOldHorsewoman · 31/12/2013 11:15

Thanks Marsha Smile. Wedding was lovely - beautiful, elegant setting and it was fab to catch up with far-flung relatives. Sadly had to leave early (before 9pm) as we were racing on Sunday and couldn't stay overnight in London. Sometimes I yearn for a more 'normal' life!

Barbie I do believe it was you who put me onto the Elemis melting oil (Frangipani). It is delicious, but I refuse to use it during the winter - it's just completely Summer to me. Smells lush.

RubyLovesShopping · 31/12/2013 11:19

Yes you did look amazing grumpy.
My Anna basket consisted of well put together casual outfit of maxmara cashmere, goldsign skinnies, ash high tops and a malene birger scarf the 2 main items have disappeared but it was a fab casual outfit which would have worn a lot. Guess have saved myself some money.
Marsha the orange looked v good with the coat and jeans I still think you should get.

MarshaBrady · 31/12/2013 11:21

Happy New Year Barbie!

Topaz I have been meaning to answer your I&I question.

I don't think it does last that well. I'm glad I pay greatly reduced prices and wouldn't buy at fp. But I know I'm hard on jumpers.
