dec I wore an old black dress, sort of 60s shift shape. I've had it for years but love it. Wore it with black patent ballet flats (would normally wear it with heels but walked 30mins to the restaurant) and black opaques. Fuschia bag and fuschia lipstick.

Queen - really pretty outfit love black and pink together.
Dry - great look too, this is the year I m going to get me a camel coat ! Have admirer and been looking for the perfect one for too long now.
Dec and lib - yipeeeeeeeeee ! Those last 7 minutes were the longest of my life, I actually forgot to exhale until the final whistleSmile
BOD is such a great sporting hero isn't he? honourable on and off the pitch.
I know a few of you have a mini Gracie - spotted a few at a good price in store locally, they have pink, plum and holly (green) and am orang-y colour, think I might pick one up for summer. But can't decide what colour - am leaning towards plum but it s not very summery is it? The green could do either summer / winter I know too maybe.
That s cute about dd s and the pink bag dec. Smile

Morning! QueenC, I love the sound of that outfit!

Today I am all casual. Dressed exactly like this. The top cost me £30, I love a bargain! And I am wearing the j crew matchstick jeans. Bling is the gorgeous new swaroski bracelet and Thomas Sabo charm watch. I am ring less on my right hand which feels weird and is bugging me so I might go and add a plain silver ring to right hand.

I am supposed to be completing my Disclosure & Barring Service form! That's what I told dh anyway!Blush

queenc did look good last night. But she did keep flashing a fair bit of leg at the young hipsters in the pub.

Drywhiteplease · 16/03/2014 12:27

Go Queenc !! Love the sound of that outfit .
Novice I need that top???would go with my new trainers.
turq do you remember my hunt for the perfect camel coat? Shop found it for me.

Drywhiteplease · 16/03/2014 12:29

my brilliant coat

Drywhiteplease · 16/03/2014 12:31

Then I became obsessed with pinning camel coat looks on looks I like board....scroll down, there are loads.

santamarianovella · 16/03/2014 12:52

queenc, you wild thing Grin, outfit sounds great.

QueenCadbury · 16/03/2014 15:39

Grin at queenofwhatever. Btw I'm glad you made us go home when we did as I have no hangover. queen looked great too and I love the hold skirt.

We've just been to the seaside shingle beach on Bristol Channel. Too hot to wear a winter coat but I didn't fancy wearing a blazer for climbing rocks so I wore a fleece Shock accessorised with a rucksack to carry the picnic. I think I have a gap in my wardrobe for a spring/summer coat.

Nipped into tesco but forgot to buy ST. Is there anything in the style mag worth traipsing to the local shop for?

QueenCadbury · 16/03/2014 15:40

Gold skirt. Not hold. Stoopid iPad.

Sorry Dry but I'm working my way through series 1 of sex/city

LinusDKD · 16/03/2014 21:00

Lol dry!

I am tucked up in bed after spending most of the day outdoors.

Wore Leigh skinnies, a very bright pink ls J Crew tee (bought in the winter sales but is so bright I didn't dare wear it) and navy havaianas.

Oh and sunscreen on my face and chest Wink

MarshaBrady · 16/03/2014 21:04

I'm here! Had a relaxing weekend, in the sunshine.

About to watch Conviction with Hilary Swank, not sure if it's good.

BrandyAlexander · 16/03/2014 21:32

Grin Dry! I am so shattered. Doing my Sunday night routine. Dimmed lights, candles and magic radio. Oh with a cup of tea and a treat from baking with the kids earlier. On my bed is my favourite mag in the whole wide world....the Lakeland catalogue! Wink

MarshaBrady · 16/03/2014 21:34

Lol Novice Grin

Drywhiteplease · 16/03/2014 21:36

love this

Novice the novelty of being on my own has worn off. I'm shattered. Being a taxi service on my own is hard work. Teenagers have activities until 8.30 on weekends Shock and early sporting startsSad Hot bath and bed, haven't the energy to read a book, just want to look at clothes Smile. Miss DH.

MarshaBrady · 16/03/2014 21:38

Aw Dry I bet, when is he back?

Drywhiteplease · 16/03/2014 21:39

Tomorrow....so can't complain.

nice

QueenCadbury · 16/03/2014 21:43

When is he back dry?

So I'm glad that you all haven't chucked me off the thread for wearing a fleece. But what is everyone wearing in this weather coat wise? Especially when out with little dcs? I used to have a short trench which I got rid of as it just didn't look right. Denim jackets don't suit me, nor do bikers. I sold my boucle jacket as I wasn't happy with the colour but I wouldn't be averse to getting another but it still seems a bit smart for the swings. Any inspiration...?

BrandyAlexander · 16/03/2014 21:48

Aww Dry. I bet he's really missed you too. Dh was ahem thrilled to have me back.Wink I both hate being away (though that's sort of better as at least i am flat out busy and on the go) and dh being away. I always feel a bit lost without him. He just walked into the room sniffed the air and said "wife's back!"
