I may be showing a shocking lack of culture here but who is Liz Jones?

shopafrolic · 03/01/2014 21:49

Formal request. Please don't mention her name on here. This is Vogue. She is a horrible excuse for a woman. Google her one. She's not worth the time on here.

i have a friend who ordered them in my size because her size was sold out, so she thought she would give them a try as they do often come up big. then her size came back in stock over night, so she asked me to order them instead of my size and we were going to switch. still with me?! so the package arrived at mine today and she picked them up and loves them, but mine still not arrived with her and looks unlikely that will be there tomorrow. so i can't try on or check over or anything before i go, and it's 14 days returns so can't wait till i get back. only option seems to be for her to send 'my' boots back then transfer the money to me to cover what i paid for her boots. but that means i have no boots.

it's a whole boot hoopla.

shopafrolic · 03/01/2014 21:56

Oh foxy what a PITA. If I lived nearer, and thought we were the same shoe size, I'd lend you mine. Boo to tricky boots and j Crew

OneLittleLady · 03/01/2014 21:57

I see. I will not mention her by name again. I will google later if I remember but I shall take your word for it that she is awful shop

Annianni · 03/01/2014 21:57

'She' is handcuffed to a delightful young chap called Dappy... she doesn't have a clue who he is, and vice versa.

His trousers are belted under his arse, with tight white undies on show.

Not sure who I feel more sorry for :o

shopafrolic · 03/01/2014 22:00

No One make your own mind up please. I just don't think the woman deserves the column inches.

GrumpyOldHorsewoman · 03/01/2014 22:01

Horrible polemicist is probably the kindest thing I can think to say about Liz Jones. She is toe curlingly vile about racing people without the least idea of the way we treat our horses - they live like emperors while we sacrifice just about everything to care for them and provide them with the highest standards of welfare imaginable. But then she is vile about almost everyone, all the while bemoaning how misunderstood and put-upon she is. I feel sorry for the other CBB contestants.

Shop I was so sorry to read about your dog yesterday. My dogs are practically my life, so I can understand your anguish totally. I have been through it twice before so I know how hard it is. Hugs to you.

Dry you have cost me money again. The Cristens were right up my alley and still available in my size, so it had to be done, didn't it.

I'm not even going to mention my little trip down Atterley Road Blush. But DH is noticing the alarming frequency with which the DPD man is visiting. My good friend keeps reminding me of how much I'm saving though...

shopafrolic · 03/01/2014 22:01

Fill your LJ boots here instead Thanks

BecauseIsaidS0 · 03/01/2014 22:03

Her husband used to go to my yoga studio. Yuck yuck yuck.

shopafrolic · 03/01/2014 22:04

Thanks grumpy I keep looking up the garden path to the kennels expecting to see him. He was a fab old boy.
I like the sound of your friend - sound advice Grin

Annianni · 03/01/2014 22:16

Ollie from MiC is going in, Cheska's in the audience.

OneLittleLady · 03/01/2014 22:25

Shop i realised, after googling her, that I do know who she is and have read some of her....stuff and disliked it so while I wouldn't say I outright hated her, I am no fan either.

Drywhiteplease · 03/01/2014 22:35

LJ is mental.

Drywhiteplease · 03/01/2014 22:59

Grumpy glad to be of service Wink

OneLittleLady · 03/01/2014 23:15

I...I think i want some... cowboy boots do I need talking down?

BecauseIsaidS0 · 03/01/2014 23:17

If I ever find a nice pair in size 2, I'm right there with you on the cowboy boots.

justasecond · 03/01/2014 23:21

Hope your boot situation is resolved before you go Foxy what a pain, deliveries seem to be taking ages atm don't they? I would go with leggings for comfort.
I am hoping "the bag" will arrive tommorow, thanks for all your feedback (you bunch of enablers Smile)
Agree re Liz Jones, such a cow.
I feel bloated today, the last week of overindulging on anything sweet has caught up with me, my cords felt uncomfortably tight today. Action must be taken!

Turquoiseblue · 03/01/2014 23:21

Delighted with the clutch. Have been wanting a new day bag and a clutch for ages was not seeing anything I liked and came across the two in the space of a couple of days! That s me done for now though, need to stay away from shopping for a while. Will just admire everyone else s links instead. and ignore the fact I have bits on hold until Monday :-)

Foxy - I bring cosy socks or slippers as dislike wearing shoes and feet swell too. Plus I bring a wrap worn as a scarf then can be used extra layer. Hope you have safe travels.

Novice - which bag will it be??

Am sat here with mulled wine, tree and dec s are still up, will be until Monday or even Tuesday- we are away for the weekend and I simply can't bear to take them down yet. I know when we get back I m going to have so much sorting to do,

Dh is trying to book summer holidays - love that man!

justasecond · 03/01/2014 23:43

Oh yes Turquoise your Marni clutch is gorgeous, a classic style that you will get a lot of use from.

Barbie1 · 04/01/2014 00:00

cowboy boots

I used to love my cowboy boots, I must of had them re heeled and resoled about 20 odd times! In the end the cobbler had to hold my hand as I threw them in his bin. It was a sad day indeed Sad

Absolutely loving the clutch! Bag Envy

Barbie1 · 04/01/2014 00:03

I used to the r soles was actually called ass holes Blush I blame the dodgy accent my friend had when telling me about it Grin

OneLittleLady · 04/01/2014 00:03

wow, that site is fab Barbie

Barbie1 · 04/01/2014 00:34

AmberNectarine · 04/01/2014 01:16
