Phew...

Shop, the J Brands I listed are at £40 now so worth selling your old jeans. Glad you sold the bag. eBay will charge you a final value fee of 10% as well.

Thanks Decam - I have a few more bits selling today - designer sunglasses and a small Coach bag and purse, a couple of tops too. So that should cover everything. And then jeans is next weeks job! Good to know about the J Brands

Well done Shop

Had a night of debauchery of the bubbles kind fun. Went to a really nice place in Mayfair, I love Mayfair and that I first heard about it playing monopoly. Anyway I digress. I am still awaiting pay so no new dresses yet and wore old Sandro dress and Bruno shoe boots. Because it was the only thing I hadn't yet worn (lots). I feel really into the non high heel option atm. I almost thought if sell some Kors ones, again, but maybe they'll be handy one day.

The martini pre champers was probably not the best way to go, was great fun still.

I've made £675 today! Not bad!

Day sounds lovely. Mine unfortunately hasn't been great. BIL, who is recovering from brain surgery a month ago, was admitted to hospital last night and it turns out he's got bacterial meningitis. Really worried for him, got everything crossed it's been caught early

Oh no, One, hope he will be ok, that's awful.

Lovely day here. novice were staying near lymington and are only actually going to pp world for a day. We've paid the extra to go and meet peppa in the morning. It's cost a small bloody fortune! Going on Thursday so will report back then.

No fashion news except that I got very excited that lymington has an esprit. No chance to shop today ( we were too busy crabbing and caught nothing. Everyone else had buckets filled with crabs!) but will find time later in the week to have a browse!

That's great Shop, well done.

Sounds like you had fun yesterday marsha.

We were supposed to go to a local pub to see a band tonight but have been so busy today, we really can't be bothered and neither can our friends old and boring so they are coming round and we're going to chill and drink wine in the garden. Perfect.

Enjoy your evenings everyone.

Just saw your post One. That's awful for your poor db. Fingers crossed he makes a swift recovery.

one (((hugs))) for your BIL

Good Ebay news shop.

We had a great day with lovely friends and too much

Painful periods though and my tummy is soo swollen I look 5 months pregnant.

Cider followed by amaretto, interesting combo ....I can see blue sky and the sun. Feeling hopeful for a dry day by the sea tomorrow.
One I have my fingers crossed for your BIL.
Just ordered this for work trips can always find a reason back packs along with packa macs really don't get me excited

For all of you who are wanting to tone up for the summer!

(For some reason can't link from pins on the ipad)

That's my kind of Pilates fedup
One I hope your BIL makes a speedy recovery. Sending hugs to you all.
Linus feel better. I know what you mean about eating too much. Hostess made the Most Amazing ice cream with strawberries and chocolate chips. I had seconds . Just had a lie down with DH to work it off

Hehe love that Fedup!

Dry I tried the dress. First thought was no, as it's quite cut away at the arm pits and shows what I refer to as my scallops (the bit between bra strap and armpit)
But with a bit of playing around, adding a new belt etc, I think it's a goer. Definitely for around the house and on hols.
And Amber I'll PM you but the shorts are keepers so to you too.

Either teenagers are bigger than ever or I've shrunk considerably as I'm, right at this moment, wearing a maxi dress meant for a 14 year old girl. It's white with bright pink flamingos printed all over it. Can see Amber in something similar!

Evening all

Did the Bupa London 10k this morning which was hard work (couldn't seem to digest my breakfast so had an awful stitch) but a great route with lovely scenery. Blimey, it was warm though! Then met DH and the kids for lunch before coming home to do some packing. This obviously involved lots of parading around in the mirror, so a good day. Bought this scarf as it's just so summery and I thought it would make a cute cover up in the evenings. Am enjoying my baby Rocco a great deal, glad I kept!

Link please one. Funny you should say that actually as yesterday I bought an age 13-14 jumpsuit in M&S - black with white and orange zebras all over it. And it was £16!

Oh no one, just read your post. I hope he's feeling better soon, what a rotten run of luck - I had the viral strain last year and that was bad enough!

That's a beautiful scarf Amber and well done with the run.
"Scallops" Shop will have to check mine glad it works for you.

Well done on the ebay sales Shop.

One hope your BIL recovers soon. Maxi sounds good.

Great scarf Amber and well done on the 10km.

thanks everyone.

amber I can't find a link but it's from New Look and was £6 in the sale! they don't seem to be showing it online but it's definitely in store

Well done on the 10k Amber
Help me out with ShopBop please ladies. Should I pay the customs deposit or risk it on a $55 purchase?

Sorry to hear about bil, One.

Well done to Shop for the eBay sales plus making me laugh with your post lunch lie down and well done to Amber on the 10k.

QueenC look forward to hearing all about it.

We return home tomorrow, it's been soooo much fun. Great to spend time with dsis.

CP outfits - yesterday, Me&Em basic long tee tucked into gap always skinny jeans, with j crew beige cashmere sweater over it. When it was really pouring I also had jack wolfskin jacket. Trainers are Nike. Oh plus my basic bling - 1ct diamond studs, engagement ring, wedding ring and raindance ring (yup, still traumatised!).

Today,me outfit but swapped the Me&Em tee and j crew sweater for j crew bejewelled baseball top and James Perse sweater.

It's about as stylish as I am going to get!!
