Morning all,
Back from weekend break and its raining at home too, only a week until we head south though...holiday wardrobe to get out. Been doing a bit of catching up over my morning espresso:
blair love your new skirt, gorgeous colours and style. You'll definitely get a good cpw in the long run! Can see I need to branch out from the outnet as think it sold out straight away there last week. Just love that site though, wrote them a glowing review after my last purchase. Not something I normally bother with but they just get everything right imo.
santa did you get a bikini? I'm another fan of violet lake, quality is excellent. You mentioned vix too, have never bought anything, their swimwear looks good but the dresses/cover ups etc all seem to be mmf which puts me off. I'd also see you in eres, I have the bikini with the bandeau top, love it.
dry love the blue oasis skirt you bought. If I may make a comment though & don't take this the wrong way...when I joined this thread you were saving for your disco (cue well thought out & less frequent purchases). Now your shopping appetite seems voracious to the point you want to buy... plastic shoes !!! 
Haven't got to yesterday's st style yet, don't buy the paper anymore as the style of journalism irritates me but my dad keeps the mags for me (unless dsis gets in there first!) sleep* was reading some of your advice on the healthy eating thread, love the non-diet diet thoughts its pretty much what have been trying to do myself the past few weeks ie lots of chickpea salads, smoked salmon & scrambled eggs, less sugar etc. After a weekend of huge carb-heavy hotel breakfasts etc I actually can't wait to eat well again and not feel sluggish.
