Stupid IPad! Sorry ladies Shamrock Smile

Santa Shock I absolutely loved SATC! I think Carrie is the character that I least related to, but the other 3, at various points in my life I had something in common with them. On the clothes side, yes, I was much more a Charlotte then Carrie's style - I always thought i wasn't cool enough. Having said that I loved Carrie's access - the shoes, the handbag and the jewelry. Now the closet, oh how I loved Carrie's closet in the film. I felt like that when I saw my new dressing room Grin.

I bought this jacket today and the matching trousers.

Last week, I saw the J crew jacket that Shop linked a couple of weeks ago. Omg, it was perfect. Absolutely perfect. Except their size 00 i thought was just a bit snug across the chest, so I wanted to try the size 0 and they had every bloody size except that size. Hmm. I was gutted!

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 17/03/2014 16:19

Dry was just checking Topshop new in and saw these! And have pinned a cheapy asos pink peplum top...

Shamrock for all the Irish Voguettes :)

I admit I have never watched SATC - friends raved about it at school but I think I was the sad teenager with only the one tv in the house, which was my parents' domain in the evenings!

QueenCadbury · 17/03/2014 16:21

Oh shop scary. Is he ok?

Happy st Patricks Shamrock

Good news about the wedding marsha. Of course you need a new dress!

blair I do love pink and red together but would never be brave enough. Go for it as it will look lovely.

santamarianovella · 17/03/2014 16:22

novice , I first saw SATC. When I was 17-18 so I didn't relate to it at all, and then saw it again with a friend a couple of years after that, and we both made a pack to never ever end up like anyone of them! Grin, but I did feel for Charlotte, she struggled with a lot of issues, and was really happy for her on the end .

Gorgeous jacket!

Love those trousers Blair - I was considering those for a long time and bottled it - gorgeous.
Thanks for all the well wishes. DH has slept most of the day, still feels woozy from the morphine but has eaten a little. Just very scary and has made us reflect on how lucky we are. Scary when it feels like you might lose it.
My Outnet order has arrived, looks good - the striped top is a lovely thick cotton - will try tomorrow while DS is at nursery.
Marsha good stuff on the wedding. I have two evening dos to go to in the next two months. Really don't want to buy new so think I'll wear
Reiss tomato red dress to one and Me&em grecian to the other. Hoping I can dress up with shoes and bling?
I'm going to need shoes though - any ideas what i could get that might work with both? Sub £100?

shop glad to hear DH is resting and eating :)

Definitely gold shoes for both those dresses imo - they go with everything and up the bling factor! Found a few Wink with heels less than 3.5in (ok that's still high!)
River Island £45
J crew £68 "on back order" so may not arrive in time?
Boden £99, look the most comfy!

shopafrolic · 17/03/2014 17:40

Wow! Thanks Blair - that was speedy. Wouldn't you know I love the J Crew ones! Estimated ship date is two weeks before the wedding - worth the risk??

shopafrolic · 17/03/2014 17:41

Could I use this bag then?

OP posts:
santamarianovella · 17/03/2014 17:43

The j crew ones are nice, shop I love your clutch,

shopafrolic · 17/03/2014 17:43

Anybody know about sizing on J Crew shoes? Sleep perhaps?

santamarianovella · 17/03/2014 17:46

for novice,and mr novice, Wink

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 17/03/2014 17:47

Love the clutch, was going to suggest a sparkly bag Grin And I liked those shoes the best too.

2 weeks seems ok - they will ship from the US but it has always been pretty quick for me. Never bought their shoes though. As long as they stick to that shipping date!

BaileyWhite · 17/03/2014 17:48

L'Wren Scott has been found dead- suspected suicide.

Totally shocking.

santamarianovella · 17/03/2014 17:52

Dear god the news is terrible today,Clarrisa Dickson died,used to watch her show.

and Lwren Scott committed suicide Sad

shopafrolic · 17/03/2014 17:56

I've just emailed them to check Blair Thanks

Marsha - new wedding outfit sounds good Smile. Where are you going to look?

shopafrolic · 17/03/2014 17:59

How awful that most of the stories about L'Wren Scott lead with the fact that she's Mick Jagger's girlfriend. The press are just awful.

OP posts:
BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 17/03/2014 18:09

Yay Shop I love helping people find things.

That's sad about L'Wren and also Clarissa. Agree about Mick Jagger, she was pretty famous in her own right!

Annianni · 17/03/2014 18:12

Love those J Crew shoes... I'd want the silver not the gold though.

Sad news today. Rip L'wren and Clarissa.

Fabulous shoes for Novice, Santa Wink

BrandyAlexander · 17/03/2014 18:36

Ooh Santa, those shoes are fab!!! Dh would ahem like them too. pity they are over 4".

Shop, pm

LinusDKD · 17/03/2014 18:52

That is shocking about LS! I always admired her designs even though they were way out of my budget.

Drywhiteplease · 17/03/2014 19:03

Just heard it in the car. How awful. She always appeared so incredible. Very sad.

Shop looks like you're sorted for your weddings. I'm so Envy at the orange dress,have been since you got it. Love it. With gold....fabulous!!!

Ummmmm.....have just ordered a job lot 8!! pairs of cropped trousers to try from Boden. Need good quality navy (and red?) for work but really not sure about their sizing. Will report back.

Anni pm!

Dd is doing Shred DVD in the living room....loads of stomping. I LOVE Gillian, bloody incredible body.

Blair I'd like cotton dresses for summer. One maxi (not empire line, pref vest top style that I can belt) something short too, while you're shopping Grin
