MN Vogue - vol 35

[shopafrolic]

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.
Continuing from here

Marsha have seen Blue jasmine, agree about the wardrobe but in the press conference in the film extras Kate is wearing the most divine blue dress which I swear is Dior.....I'd kill for it, truly beautiful.

Dry that's a shame. Could it be because they stop at the ankle? I'm sure you looked way better than you thought you did - as liberty said maybe try them with a few things, perhaps with black tights first, just to get used to them?

I went for these jeans with the voucher. I already wanted to try the Phoebe but think the slim leg will be better for me. And with the discount they are cheaper than shopbop.

Off to bed now I think, night all :)

Perhaps that's it Blair . I love the sandals, really do, just need to play with them I guess. Now wondering whether the bf jeans I've been loving and wearing for so long (actually a slim fit turned up) actually suit me at all

But I didn't look this bad !

Hello! Big wave to all. I love dpils to bits but I just shuddered for Blair!

Hi everyone,

liberty and blair I want to lose a stone too! Am starting 5:2 again tomorrow, stopped as didn't think it was working but after feeling miserable about the fit of my going out clothes last night I realise that it was, its just slow progress. I just need to find a way to adapt it so that I can still exercise.

anni, welcome back.

blair omg how awful!! Not sure I would recover quickly from that, you need to buy him a dressing gown!

bonsoir am off to tell (french) dh your comments re Carla, we were discussing her at the party last night and he will just not have it that she is not 100% natural!

Mara Carla and Nigella are in danger of ruining their natural beauty with surgery. Both look ghost like due to excessive pale foundation and trout mouthed. Such a shame. Carla is looking a bit "Bride of weidelstein"

Ooooh bit bitchy so early in the morning
The sun is shining. I'm wearing 7/8 without socks....UP NORTH!!! but still have my vest on

Morning all - who is that in that pic Dry?

Oh and where are you at with your book reading? Ready to start Life after Life?

Morning!
Carla was a classical beauty back in her modelling days,but her addiction to Botox is making her face melt, but nigella,has it good,I want to know the name of her dr for the future,the work is very meticulous ,and she still looks hot,

dry I'm sure you looked fab,maybe try them with dresses?

Morning, just what I need some chat about slebs and turn ups.

I bet you look great Dry.

I just finished Alice Munro short stories. Delicate perfection in words. So glad she got the Nobel prize, I wonder if she was overlooked for some time for feminine writing. Not macho and swaggering at all.

Blair good one on the MiH.

I would have put a after just what I need. Sounds a bit early otherwise.

Sarcastic- geez!

Sorry Shop, thread starting is your department!

Morning all...

I'll join Liberty and Blair.
Somehow I've managed to put the 10lbs I lost after Christmas back on along with another 2... sob!!!

So today I am back on the bike (just done a fast 10 miles)
And healthy eating again.

My willpower is rubbish at the best of times
And I have several stressful things going on at the moment which are behind my spectacular fall off the wagon.

But I'm back for now

We have sun finally up here (we had a grey weekend, was very envious of your vest and espadrille (sp?) wearing weather)
So jobs for today include hoovering my car... Not very exciting but it stops me wasting the morning online and gets me outside.

I love those black shoes Dry, I think they'd look fab with a looser boyfriend jean and there needs to be a good inch or so of leg showing between the ankle strap and jean.

Or how about with bare legs and dresses for Summer?

Shop have you tried the Hush shorts yet?

I've just ordered a pile of Gap tee's to try while the 30% is still on.

And I've took a punt on a pair of J Brand boyfriends from the US been stalking them on ebay for ages.
Will link later.

Must get dressed and keep busy.

Mwah... kisses for all xx

Hello all at Anni

Linus I'll pop to the post office later and get the Style mag in the post. Will add Guardian/Telegaph mags in too and do you want Porter?

Hello all
Haven't been doing much shopping but loving the sunshine & thinking about summer shoes. Broke out my Toms for the first time this year yesterday, probably not very cool but I do so love them, oh so comfy.

J brand boyfriends sound nice Anni may have to be next buy

I bought a couple of things second-hand on FrockDrop - these Prada shoes which were in great nick but sadly just a bit big and DvF dress just a bit too baggy round the boobs. Back they go.

Anni which gap t's? Am just about to hit the order button, have 4 pairs of same size jeans in my basket!
Sun here too but am pessimistic in thinking the cold weather has not gone here yet.

Hello all btw

Morning all!

Yesterday, honestly, I went out without a coat! That's how warm it was here! I tried a swing dress, just to see if it would work for me and it was surprisingly flattering. Quite pleased actually as it will give a bit of variety to the dresses I wear. I thought it might cling and be unflattering on my tummy and hips but it skimmed straight over and didn't make me look like a blimp so that's a win for me!

In bad news, our shower has broken and is out of bounds til it's fixed as it actually flooded into the flat downstairs so my shower stool etc has been taken to my brother's which is ten minutes away so I can shower there.

Morning!

Your package has arrived shop! Thank you so much!

And yes please mig. I think might save most of your magazines for out holiday in April.

What lovely weather today. I am wearing my new Jimmies and an Asos basebal tee (the white/navy one. I've got a few as I love them) and went outside wearing my red Henrietta ballet flats and no socks.

Still pretty nippy in the morning though so I did wear a coat.

Oh I'd forgotten that I had ordered some J Crew tees in their sale (plus an extra discount) and their Perfect Fit tee is also a neon yellow.

Less green than the Hush one but I'll have to compare them properly. I prefer the fit of the Hush one though because the Perfect Fit in a size small does cling to all my lumps and bumps. I think I'll stick to their Vintage tee in future as that style suits me better or go a size up in the Perfect Fit one
