Following on from here for friendly, funny, frivolous, never free fashion talk....we don't judge, just like seeing nice things. Do come and join ]

marsha I really like the size,and the colour is so gorgeous,

blair cropped top sounds nice,you an wear it with anything really,even a simple grey tee,would look great with it,very versatile

I have lots of fantasy shoes,it will be impossible to link them all,

Blair it's owned by my friend (so of course I go there . It's lovely - the lash lift treatment is fantastic. They also offer 'Beauty Lock ins' for groups of friends/colleagues, can stay open late, provide champagne and canapés to enjoy while you flit between the treatment stations .

Champagne Sleep? Canapés ? Can we book for the MU?
grumpy I was looking at those very shoes earlier on my shoe evening. What a gorgeous dress now I know who I'm looking for will have a think about jacket...something cream perhaps?

Lovely choices for Ascot Grumpy. Will have a think about a cover up....

Blair I agree the sweater might be too hot. As Santa says a plain T would be good too.

I have to eat my words about Atterley Road - have just checked my email and they have emailed today to confirm refund! Will be interesting to see how fast it hits my CC but that's a major improvement for them.

Grumpy
vintage looking
Have seen another, will find link....hang on

Damn Sleep I seem to have missed a trick, sounds fantastic! I don't actually live or work in London so it's good to get those sort of tips :) but would love to check it out at some point.

santa thanks, I did think of a grey marl sort of t-shirt as well.

to Grumpy That Boden dress is so pretty and the shoes are perfect. I'm picturing the dress with a bolero/cropped jacket type thing, so the front detail on the dress isn't hidden - but that probably wouldn't be very versatile. Nothing too structured though.

That's good about AR liberty.

grumpyany goid?

Both may be a bit fussy looking at the dress again though Grumpy

what the heck?

How the hell did you even end up on that site Dry....what in the world did you google

"Cream bolero"....

at 'cute and interesting'...hmm, if the best word to attempt to sell part of a bridal outfit is 'interesting' you have to stop and wonder

Grumpy
any good?

So what day think Blair...fancy looking 'cute and interesting' for your day to night event? , it will certainly provide a talking point and is unlikely to be forgotten!

Grumpy
better?

Apologies, I realise now it's for Grumpy...who (I've seen her in that devastatingly fabulous tuxedo) is most certainly not the 'cute and interesting' type!

reduced

Lol well it does have that peach colour in it, to match the skirt! But I fear I'm not cute and interesting either!

I like this feathered one

All the other boleros I can find seem to be from frumptastic brands country casuals and the like so won't link those. I do think one would look glam with the dress though!

Some possible jackets for Grumpy

Zara the Ecru one

Max Mara - short sleeves though Maxmara have quite a few pale/neutral jackets that might work

Vanessa Bruno - this one could be fabulous!!

Sportmax cropped

When I saw the dress I thought a vintage style beaded cardigan might work - have a search for beaded cardigans on Etsy - maybe something like this Might not be dressy enough for Ascot?

And of course you'll need a hat

actually I just want any occasion to dress up, it's been far too long

Morning!

Some lovely shoe links last night! I love a bit of shoe porn.

I am still lusting after those Gianvito Rossi courts but I would really like to try them on in a shop. Maybe I should come on a shoe and bag pilgrimage to London?

That is a great dress grumpy! I wish I had an occasion to get dressed up.

marsha if you like the Nars tinted moisturiser but can't find the right colour for your skin, I mix two shades (Groenland and Alaska) to get the right colour for my skin.

blair I have no advice I'm afraid regarding the skirt. I'm useless with matching tops with skirts which is one of the reasons I don't wear them.

grumpy gorgeous dress. Will have a think about jacket.

grumpy I looked at pin but couldn't find any colour combo inspiration.

Have you looked at coast?

long jacket

Morning all - blimey you lot get busy in the evenings nowadays!
Santa love your welcome back. I'll try never to holiday ever again - until July anyway. :)
Sleep that's amazing about Mr Lowe. Good stuff.
Thanks for all the tips about Westfield. Fingers crossed DH can drag DS off somewhere so I can take a look at Massimo D, Cos and more. I think it'll be more likely that i end up buying bits for DS than for myself - he seems to have grown overnight!

Sleep that tune is damn catchy. I only listened to it once, went out to hang my washing out and washing singing it to myself!
