It's been a while since I set one up so thought I'd do the honours.
For glass half full fashion fanatics. Bring a positive attitude, a love of clothes and lots of lovely links. All welcome, from high street to high end.

Hi all --

apols about the link- was in a tearing hurry so only posted the link but it is kosher (Huffington Post I think) and features a pictogram of all the Oscar dresses. Sorry if it spooked you all.

Annianni · 02/03/2014 18:02

Sorry Because but I'm not adding anyone else to the pin board, unless I've met them irl.

I'm all for letting Ds1 do science things with his microscope Dry, although I did hide the lance thing in the bin that came with it, for pricking fingers and looking at blood... I didn't fancy the aftermath of that!

LinusDKD · 02/03/2014 18:05

blair that's not good, I would complain as well!

Annianni · 02/03/2014 18:09

I think their CS is supposed to be good Blair.

BecauseIsaidS0 · 02/03/2014 18:28

Annianni, as I said earlier, I fully understand. I was only commenting because shop said there had been no comments - I'm not going to be asking for a public link every time, it makes me feel like the little girl at school asking to be let into the cool girls group Wink.

I went into Top Shop today and walked out with a denim shirt! Thirty years after buying my first denim shirt, here I am again Grin but I have to admit I am rather excited about it and fully intend to do the double denim thing.

Sorry Because you misunderstood my post. I wasn't referring to anyone on the thread as a lurker. I meant real lurkers who never post.
Dry am loving the husband's secret. 14 chapters in and it's really drawing me in. Thanks

It's a good one Shop. I snuggled down to read mine earlier...fell asleep, bit dull at the moment.

SecretSquirrel13 · 02/03/2014 19:53

Shop I thought it was pretty but the colours not me. Plus I find sequinned things soo itchy.
Am bidding on something on eBay does that count as not shopping if my paypal balance covers it?GrinGrin

SecretSquirrel13 · 02/03/2014 19:53

Oh I've just started the husbands secret too!

SecretSquirrel13 · 02/03/2014 19:59

Mistakenly bought as thought was by Sophie Hannah due to confusingly worded cover, or maybe that's just me.

secret as far as I'm concerned PayPal balance isn't real money so all good! Link once purchased?
It's a great book. Let us know what you think.
Novice am about to PM you.

I do hope so Anni. Am really disappointed, I love the trousers but it won't be the same when I wear them now.

I keep seeing you all pinning things bought from asos Wink. Happy to be of service!!

Drywhiteplease · 02/03/2014 20:41

Agree with Shop Secret PayPal spends don't count. Wink

Blair those pics are awful. I hope they refund you as I doubt you'll be wanting a replacement?!

I'm working my way through ST Style, it's a lovely chunky one this week

LinusDKD · 02/03/2014 20:47

Very jealous shop!

I can get the ST here but without the supplements which is the only reason I bought it when I lived in London

linus PM me your address and I'll post it to you tomorrow? The least I can do.......

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 02/03/2014 20:50

shop they were in the sale (£310 full price I think not!) so can't replace anyway. I'll send them back if they want (and they pay) but I don't know why they would want them. I'm feeling silly now as I honestly thought high end neoprene would be nicer. Won't make that mistake again!

Watching Aaron Paul on Top Gear (a bit behind live)... mmmm :)

OneLittleLady · 02/03/2014 20:52

I just found my mum's embroidered tunic top from the 60's. it even has authentic 'joss stick' burns in it Grin

LinusDKD · 02/03/2014 20:54

Oh don't worry about it shop!

Postage would be more than the price of the whole ST. Wink

QueenCadbury · 02/03/2014 21:06

Is it absolutely pissing it down anywhere else or just here in the SW? At least I can out all thoughts of spring on hold as I'll be back in the hunters tomorrow Grin

blair hope they refund you. I wouldn't want a bobbly bum either.

Raining here too :(

OP posts:
OneLittleLady · 02/03/2014 21:14

Raining here as well. It's been grey and chilly all day though.

libertychick · 02/03/2014 22:06

am on hols in the sun - no rain here, no sir-ee!
Am also slightly drunk. Was in a bar earlier with lots of 80's music and the video of the Top Gun song 'Take my breath away' was on and it made me remember I had a total style crush on Kelly McGillis when I was 13 and now I'm thinking I could channel that look with a black pencil skirt, white shirt, biker jacket, sheer black tights and maybe ankle boots to make it a bit more modern!! My hair is getting to that shape ATM and after the beach today I want blond highlights!! Those of you who have met me - I probably need to be talked down Grin

Drywhiteplease · 02/03/2014 22:36

Liberty sounds like you're having a fab time! Grin
I had my hair permed and cut into a bob in the 80s just like hers.Grin
