santa these are the jimmies but only a size 30 left now.

First time I bought from them.

Fedupnagging · 12/02/2014 10:44

Thanks for all your input. these have been ordered. I got free delivery plus another 10% discount.

Blair I have ordered a uk5 so will let you know how they fit.

All this talk of colour is making me yearn for the spring and summer months.

OneLittleLady · 12/02/2014 11:08

Love the VW dress dry

Sorry I'm a bit quiet everyone, I've come down with some unspecified lurgy and feel terrible.Hoping it passes soon as I have loads to get done!

BecauseIsaidS0 · 12/02/2014 11:44

I love Julianne Moore, I really do.

One, look after yourself x

BecauseIsaidS0 · 12/02/2014 11:58

I love this look

Shame I'm too old and nowhere near funky enough to pull it off.

santamarianovella · 12/02/2014 12:43

linus I've ordered twice from forward,I paid duties the first time I bought from them, second time they didn't charge me anything, So I'm a bit confused with them.they had great bargains at sales,

I swear my mum had the exact jacket back in the early 90s felt really nostalgic looking at it,she used to wear it with a white pleated knee length skirt,a la princess diana. is balmain running out of ideas,it doesn't look like they tried to updated it or something,I can't think of a way to wear it without looking like a plast from the past.

because I like this look too,but I could never pull it off.

shopafrolic · 12/02/2014 12:54

Dry I've emailed you a pic of my new short hair.
Fedup hope the Gigis fit well - they're lovely
Because that is a fab outfit
Mig fashion world has gone mad. I've emailed my hairdresser and will let you know when he comes back :)
DS has announced today that he want to wear pants (Finally) but our washing machine is broken and won't be fixed till Friday earliest Hmm

BrandyAlexander · 12/02/2014 13:21

Afternoon all! I am wearing my blue Me&Em cowl necked dress again today, accessorised with 4 carats of diamonds including a Tiffany's cross pendant, a ring that looks like this but with triple strand of diamonds down the sides. I desperately want to go on the bling thread and ask whether it's vulgar? Grin I am also wearing my fabulous oasis diamante watch (which is annoyingly, the spitting image of lost Gucci watch), lovely blue danglie earrings and Accessorize blue bracelet which I am really into at the moment - I have had these three bits for about 10 years and they have last so well. A mixture of the cheap and not so cheap.

My poor poor PA is really stressing out as her area is flooded and looks like her street might be next. They've just finally finished making her house all lovely and decorated. :( Hugs to anyone in a similar situation.

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 12/02/2014 13:53

Because love the jumpsuit look, but she looks freezing and miserable!

One I hope you feel better soon.

Lovely bling novice and that thread is so interesting, I love it when long discussion threads get going on here.

I hope your PA's house is ok. It's just awful isn't it? We are about a mile from the Thames (at home) and part of the town is flooded but where we are is OK at the moment. I was frantically checking the likelihood that we might get ground water coming up though. The weather today is horrendous too, it needs to end :(

MarshaBrady · 12/02/2014 16:37

Morning, waiting for sun to rise.

Mig I love Hadley Freeman too, she is my fave writer. I remember chuckling at her writing in Ten magazine.

Novice you suit bling and wear it well.

I have a large-ish sparkly diamond ring (heirloom) and it rather sets the standard - I know I only would want to wear something just as nice. Thinking about it I am quite pared back but really it's just expensive taste.

Linus thanks! Will check it out.

OneLittleLady · 12/02/2014 16:48

Hope you're having a fab time Marsha I'm very Envy but I reckon Australia would just be too hot for me, I don't do hot weather

MarshaBrady · 12/02/2014 16:51

Fashion writer that is.

Umlauf how exciting! My brother went on his way here and loved it. I really want to do a mid-world mu with the family some time. I think somewhere in Thailand could be the place. Really happy for you, what a surprise!

Blair I saw some gorgeous Peter Piletto stuff in Liberty. Really lovely. I'd go for fresh and white over black. I think. But then clawing is no bad thing with PP.

MarshaBrady · 12/02/2014 16:54

Dry hello! it's fab, so different to London. It's not too hot where we are under 30 so pretty nice.

What day is Gucci day? Has it a day? Grin

shopafrolic · 12/02/2014 17:18

Waves to Marsha en route to check out Hadley Freeman.
I have an antique diamond ring that was my great grandmother's engagement ring. The older cuts seem more sparkly than modern rings....

Drywhiteplease · 12/02/2014 17:47

It's never too hot for me Smile..... Am pale and burn quickly, so not a sun worshiper, but I just love being warm,love it.....humidity is the killer.
Marsha I'm thinking Wednesday will be G day.Smile
I love antique diamonds don't have any , this would do nicely ostentatious! MOI? Shock
It's blowing a gale out there, rain too, snow last night....think I'll get into my pjs and finish the Moët DH is out Wink

BrandyAlexander · 12/02/2014 17:53

Hi Marsha!!!! Glad you're enjoyingEnvy

Dry, oh yes, that will do me nicely tooGrin

MarshaBrady · 12/02/2014 18:06

Wave to Shop yes I love mine (especially since we were young and broke and all we could have got was a comparative dot Grin). But I am one of those oh yes go for a beautiful ring types because it is so nice to wear. I never take it off.

Dry Gucci Wed sounds good.

Have finally worked out pin and put a pic up. Took ages. Perhaps I should start an Instagram acc and actually matching my social media to the task!

MarshaBrady · 12/02/2014 18:17

How did I misread one as dry!? I love being very warm too. Especially near the sea.

OneLittleLady · 12/02/2014 18:22

Being mistaken for dry is no bad thing, she's a foxy mama Wink

LinusDKD · 12/02/2014 18:35

marsha lovely picture. I don't do heat too well and I have to be careful in the sun and I sweat like the proverbial pig Blush

Oh dry I can't wait for Gucci Wednesday!

because I like that look but could never pull it off myself.

The new Jimmies are growing on me. I took off my socks and wore them barefoot with my red French Sole ballerina flats and they looked a lot better. I always struggle to wear boyfriend jeans with anything but flats.

Some bag porn for all of you:

this beauty.

I love the delicate peach colour but unfortunately it wouldn't work with many of my clothes.

Annianni · 12/02/2014 18:55

Gap jeans are on pin. Not keeping them though.
Navy tee is lovely but too big.
Grey tee is a pale grey/cream colour irl, so no good for me.
Black belt has a vile brass buckle.
Bleached taupe belt is lovely... A really nice grey shade and a keeper.

The Nixon watch is quite nice, would be good for Summer but...

The alarm has been going off since I got it out of the box and it's driving me insane!!!
No amount of pressing buttons will shut it up, and the instructions are useless

Drywhiteplease · 12/02/2014 19:48

Shop your hair look fab as usual.....
One well thanks! but....I don't look foxy this evening in my slippers and body warmer.....yes MNV I had to bring out the big guns, even in my very warm house, I needed THE body warmer........Grin... Picture me, body warmer, slippers,glasses at my kitchen table, drinking the last of the Moët in a WINE glass Shock ...I'm just that kinda woman. Grin
I feel so sorry for anyone on the west coast, feels as if I'm about to take off here due to wind not champagne it must be bad over there.

Drywhiteplease · 12/02/2014 19:50

Anni shame about the Gap stuff, looked nice in the links......off to check pin.

And thanks all for the group excitement for Gucci Wednesday, pathetic I know, but this is the only place I can get excited about it with people who understand.

LinusDKD · 12/02/2014 20:11

wow

Now I like flared jeans (on some people, unfortunately not one me) but this is just OTT.

MarshaBrady · 12/02/2014 20:14

Linus wow. Grin

Dry not at all. I will no doubt be the same when Celine Tuesday happens Wink
