Do you...

  • love fashion (high and low end), style, beauty?
  • spend way more time than is healthy for anyone thinking about the contents of your wardrobe?
  • wish you had the nerve to apply for Mastermind with your specialist subject being the history of H&M collaborations?

If so come and chat! Hugs and kisses allowed

sleep I like that jumper and with shoulders like yours you can pull it off.

at foxy

Welcome Stokey

amber you bought a Balenciaga without telling us?! Piccies please.

shop the nursery run in a dressing gown? Now that would have been a sight to behold.

decam and santa I am soo tempted to buy that DvF dress as well. What size did you get?

Sleepwhenidie · 16/01/2014 19:25

Draughty...cold shoulders...ridiculous price...thanks, keep em coming!

MarshaBrady · 16/01/2014 19:26

Sleep I'm sure you'd look fab in it, but it's the sleeveless polo neck / coat thing. Cold shoulders!

MarshaBrady · 16/01/2014 19:26

Anni you do move quickly, well done Grin

Annianni · 16/01/2014 19:30

:o when you think we've been in this house for 18 months, we actually did all that in 3 & 1/2 years... No wonder I'm tired and dh is going grey!

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 16/01/2014 19:30

Awww Anni I love it Grin we did move in together after 10 months. And bought a house. Just no ring yet!

Sleep happy to help! But just seen it's cashmere so even if it was warm enough weather for the shoulders, the rest of you might be too hot?

I too would like to see pics of the red pashli and balenciaga so I can live vicariously through amber. I want to get a new bag in the next few months but not sure what.

MarshaBrady · 16/01/2014 19:31

We'll help you Blair. What type of thing do you fancy?

Annianni · 16/01/2014 19:31

Linus the Balenciaga has been on Amber's blog Envy

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 16/01/2014 19:40

I'm sure you will Marsha!

It would be a daytime bag, as I only have one nice one, which I'm getting a bit bored of. I absolutely love the pashli, but every time I go and look at it in selfridges I'm put off by the fiddly clasp and that little strap that keeps the handles together. I'm sure I'd get used to it though... pashli owners how do you find opening them up when your hands are full of car keys and such?

I also like the chloe paraty and givenchy antigona but those are really just a dream, different price range altogether!

I'm going to the US in May so would love to bring something back and hopefully save a bit.

Sleepwhenidie · 16/01/2014 19:42

DH and I moved pretty quickly too - I was pg after 3 months together...so then we thought moving in together was probably an appropriate plan..engaged when I was 6m pg and married a week after DS1 turned 2, then two more DC's within 3 years Smile.

Amber I just saw your haircut, it looks fab.

LinusDKD · 16/01/2014 19:46

anni forgot about that! Sorry amber.

Turquoiseblue · 16/01/2014 19:56

Waves to all
.... work manic ... No help on any fashion quandaries, apologies! but thanks for the pin feedback Smile
Dry - and queen c - love the going out outfit inspiration- have decided Blake slim leg trousers and maje khaki (slightly sequined ) top with heels and tuxedo / blazer (day birger)

Can't do DVF - or wrap - look like a 50's housewife in a pinny on me ...... Shame Sad they re so pretty. My Dsis rocks them though.
Any luck with the goldsign hunt shop?
Time for some SS 14 thoughts, or at least transitional fashion ....am over winter.

LinusDKD · 16/01/2014 19:56

The DvF dress is in my bag but I am supposed to be good this month...

What do I do?

RubyLovesShopping · 16/01/2014 19:58

Buy it and be good and buy nothing else? GrinGrin

LinusDKD · 16/01/2014 20:05

But I don't need it! and I bought too much last month

Annianni · 16/01/2014 20:05

Sleep you win! :o

Annianni · 16/01/2014 20:06

Buy it Linus!

RubyLovesShopping · 16/01/2014 20:08

Linus we don't NEED any of it !

RubyLovesShopping · 16/01/2014 20:09

And you can do a self imposed spending ban next month, we'll help you!

AmberNectarine · 16/01/2014 20:10

Blair I mostly wear my Pashli with the flap tucked inside or undone like the black one on this blog post

I love it - use it as my work bag and it holds EVERYTHING!

LinusDKD · 16/01/2014 20:15

But but but ...... I really can't make my mind up!

LinusDKD · 16/01/2014 20:28

Alea iacta est.

I bought it!

MarshaBrady · 16/01/2014 20:32

Bravo Linus!

You can always return if you have a change of heart!

Drywhiteplease · 16/01/2014 20:39

sleep I like the jumper and the dress, could see you in both. But......although I like the sexy shoulder peek a boo it reminds me of Barbara Streisand, she always wears a bit of Donna Karan with cut out shoulders still sexy whilst hiding her bingo wings Shock the clear out had made me mean Sad

I've been married for 16 years Shock married at 14Wink makes me feel old! Great though Smile

Linus I was going to say buy it! great prices for classic dresses.

libertychick · 16/01/2014 20:50

Welcome Stokey - I would be bankrupt if I worked off Regent Street Smile

Happy anniversary Mr and Mrs Marsha

Dry This is the bag

Linus the DVF dress is beautiful - great buy.

Waves to Foxy I love India - very Envy

Sleep I feel much, much better off caffeine. This month challenge is no added sugar. Harder than caffeine but going well too. I think the sweater would look great on you but just not practical I think. Dress would look AMAZING on you
