Evening,

one sorry about your Bil, hope he's feeling a bit better soon.

amber well done on 10k.

shop well done on selling the bag. A tidy amount you amassed there, guilt free new handbag and nothing sitting around gathering dust. Way to go! am going to eBay an old coach bag, miu miu clutch, maybe an old miu miu white leather bag that was my pride and joy about 10 years ago & coach clutch from last year that have never used. Will be good to create some space in dressing room cupboard .

marsha night out sounds fab as did your other one the other day. Am off heels atm too, would like some fab flats, very inspired by santa's amazing rockstuds.

queenc your day sounds lovely. Not sure i could cope with pp world though, will not be telling ds of its existence!

Out for lunch today in lovely place with garden for dc to run around in. Mother's day here so we treated dmil (already had mine in march). Nice and warm, went casual in gap boyfriend khakis, sleeveless white shirt with scalloped edges from gap years ago, tan fendi belt & gold Lkb flats from last year. Great end to a fab trip. Homeward bound tomorrow.

soooo tempting

Drywhiteplease · 26/05/2014 10:46

and again

Fedupnagging · 26/05/2014 10:51

Really lovely Dry. Also love this and
this in all 3 colours

What's with the 'mom fit' jeans. HmmThat is so not a selling point for me.

MarshaBrady · 26/05/2014 10:53

lol Fedup and mom fit, quite.

Dry very pretty.

Taking it easy today, dh taking dc swimming. I'm glad I didn't go out drinking last night and feel almost back to normal!

MarshaBrady · 26/05/2014 10:55

Mara have a lovely day. It's raining here, darn it.

One oh no, hope things improve.

Very well done Amber I saw the finish line on the way out the other night, made me want to do it for the buzz of seeing 100m to go on a huge sign.

Turquoiseblue · 26/05/2014 11:52

Love that Pilates poster Smile
Hope your BIL is ok one.
Novice - your CP outfits sounds a quite glam!
Shop great ebay ing!
Love this clutch

Am in recovery mode from weekend of fun and overindulgence - topped off with dh and I sharing a bottle of red last night ! Was a bit bleary eyed this morning. House is topsy turvey. But I m a little too fragile to even contemplate tackling it.

LollipopViolet · 26/05/2014 12:08

Well, I'm flying the flag for laziness this afternoon: old pair of Bench 3/4 trousers, very baggy ice hockey team t-shirt, and socks.

I need to make an effort tomorrow, am off skating again, then volunteering on Wednesday. I'll get my groove back.

Anyone got any websites for nice rock style tops? Need some inspiration on the wardrobe front.

AmberNectarine · 26/05/2014 14:14

Yes I must say the 100m to go sign was pretty much my favourite part of the race, put on a sprint for that, though the course was long so I had already done my 10k by that point! DS very pleased with the medal at any rate.

What a dismal day it is today - looking forward to a bit of sun tomorrow!!

Drywhiteplease · 26/05/2014 17:41

fedup love those jackets too! I'd wear them all. I haven't bought a lot from Zara in the past, but this season I really love their fitted jackets. Agree about "mom jeans" mostly because they are mom and not mum

Drywhiteplease · 26/05/2014 18:13

mom fit jeans why couldn't they have made them really nice?Hmm

shopafrolic · 26/05/2014 19:06

Why are ShopBop fees so expensive. I am very tempted by a fab tee for my summer hols at $45, but when you add all the fees it comes to $66 - not sure I can justify that.......

At airport on way home, been to caviar house for smoked salm

maradesbois · 26/05/2014 19:15

Aargh! Smoked salmon dinner with dh, lovely end to our travels.

maradesbois · 26/05/2014 19:21

Mooching round shops to kill time, nice things in p&j sister including linus's navy coatigan in neutral colour. Other than that watches, watches, watches. More dh's thing than mine although would love steel Rolex Daytona one day.

maradesbois · 26/05/2014 19:24

dry agree that clothes which don't even flatter the model not a good idea.

LinusDKD · 26/05/2014 19:30

Mmm smoked salmon!

Love my coatigan mara. I can just throw it over anything I'm wearing and look reasonably smart.

It's a shame Shopbop only do free p&p as of $100 shop

Those Zara jackets are lovely and I saw one of them IRL. Colour was gorgeous but the quality or lack of put me off.

LinusDKD · 26/05/2014 19:31

decam some nice new hooded trench coats on the Burberry website. I especially like a lovely red one that looks a lot like mine.

Fedupnagging · 26/05/2014 20:08

So, was in tkmaxx to buy liquorice and managed to leave with a Valentino scarf for £36! Can't find a link but it's on my pin board.

Nothing else caught my eye and the weather is way too awful to be inspired anyway. Will wait for the sales. Still need something for the MU.

QueenCadbury · 26/05/2014 21:17

Evening all. one how's BIL doing?

Is anyone else done with summer clothes now? I feel I have enough now and don't need any more shorts/tops/sandals and am now looking forward to buying AW stuff. When it's not even the end of may does this make me weird Grin

Drywhiteplease · 26/05/2014 21:19

Very nice Fedup

OneLittleLady · 26/05/2014 21:47

BIL is doing as well as to be expected. He's in an isolation room hooked up to continuous antibiotics. Hoping he's not going to be there for too long. Niece is coming to spend the day with me later in the week and we are going to watch frozen and star wars (her choices) Grin

In news related to having to watch Frozen, our flights to Florida next year are booked! Dp and I have a stop over in Toronto for our flights so I get to visit Canada too, although briefly! So excited now!

libertychick · 26/05/2014 22:00

Me too QueenC. I am over summer clothes!

Well done Fedup, I haven't had a TKMaxx rummage in a while.

Glad to hear BIL is doing well One. Exciting that you are going to Canada and Florida.

Drywhiteplease · 26/05/2014 22:28

I just want to wear it all QueenC! Come on sunshine.

shopafrolic · 26/05/2014 22:45

Noooo. You can't all be over summer stuff! Everything I bought last year is too big. I need dresses and swimwear, kaftans etc etc and all with no £££££
