Shop I feel a little billowing, like a sail. Too much material, I've got to go with it.

The weather has cooled I think and I'm not wearing opaques, short skirt or skinnies. So?

Oh cripes.

I'm sure you look fabulous Marsha be brave!!

DP is away until the weekend so I'm relaxing with a nice cup of earl grey and The Supremes playing, LOUD! My friend is coming a little later for us to go over some wedding plans (her wedding, not mine!) and look over some of the alterations I'm doing to her dress

Wear the jumpsuit Marsha if anyone can wear one it's you. Have a fab night.

Just looking at Ladies Day outfits, why do women go so bonkers? Hmm there are some truly horrible things being worn bet they never show the nice stuff

Have a fab night Marsha.

Does anyone know where Umlauf is?
I have a vague recollection about her going to visit her parents... but nothing since then.

We went to the open day at Ds2's school earlier this week.
He was a bit apprehensive but seemed to like it.
(he's never been to nursery, only ever been with me or dh)

He's there for a trial next week
I've made persuaded dh to have the day off :o

I changed. Outfit fail Blush.

You're all so kind though! Grin I felt all wrong. Maybe I'm in that moon zone where new things feel wrong Confused

I'm wearing MaxMara skirt - wonder if a bit like a tablecloth, tangerine t and have blue GR suede pumps to wear. Now I love those! They are almost too nice to wear.

But best thing is running out and a fun tipsy night ahead.

Tipsy novice is MNV gold Grin,

marsha wear the jumpsuit ,

one sounds like great night,

blair it doesn't sound crazy,very sensible,

amber that's a really scary lobster! I thought it was gold or silver or pink! Pink lobster is very you,maybe dye it pink? Grin

shop sorry,never heard of it,but I do that too,

mara hope you enjoy your shopping trip,

I had a good time with my mum , started bad,she didnt like the marant shirt,and boyfriends i wore,iso i changed to C&P dress and she didnt like it either,thinks it makes me look like a school girl,its like we were going to meet the pope not shopping! ,i couldn't bother to change again didnt spend a lot of time shopping,we just visited etro and maxmara concession then had a look around the shoe department,and the ground floor,I was really glad to get out of there and head for lunch,It started to get busy,didnt get anything,nothing impressive really,
but lunch on the other hand was fab,delicious food,and we had a lovely chat,It made me realise how bad I miss her sometimes,I don't get to do these things with her that often,

,and I just love Walton street,so pretty,love all these small boutiques,makes me want to open a small shop there,but I don't know what I would sell Grin

I had another try out of my NAP order, this morning and the dress,shirt,tee are all keepers,the shorts are good,but the are loose around the waist,in a good way,its more slouchy,but im concerned they will get baggy with wear, and the are sold out in the smaller size,but I really love them,don't know what to doConfused

Maybe it's a fashion loving related habit then - lip picking? I've never known anyone else do it and now three of us here? Odd!

Have a great night marsha! Maybe you can wear the jumpsuit to the MU?

santa sounds like you had a good day with your DM apart from the outfit changes

But why are mothers such hard work? I know mine is, even though I love her.

one a girlie night in sounds lovely.

amber I really like that ring even though I wouldn't have the balls to wear it. I LOVE Solange Azagury Partride's jewelry but I'm afraid
I would get bored with it quickly and at those prices that's not an option.

blair I don't want to pay fp either at the moment but it is true, lots of things are not even on sale.

dry I would love to see pictures if well dressed people at RA but they never seem to show them. I guess it doesn't sell papers.

Going for a haircut tomorrow! Yay! Managed to get a last minute appointment but it has been bothering me these last few days, just an awkward lenght and tickly in my neck and shoulders.

I don't know where umlauf is but she might be busy with her little one and I think she was going to start teaching again as well. Miss her though, she had a very unique style.

Tricky Santa - I'd say send them back if you suspect you need a smaller size - tough love?

Dry I nearly linked some of the outfits earlier for you - they definitely show the worst ones. This is quite a fun fashion Ladies Day quiz curtesy of the Gruniad, gotta love the Gertrude Shilling outfit.

Drywhiteplease · 19/06/2014 19:33

Stokey love that quiz!

Can I put my professional hat on......please, all parents of school new starters, don't linger too long if they cry....drop, kiss and run, don't look back. If you have a cryer they absolutely definitely would I lie to you stop after a few minutes and forget all about their parents who go home feeling like crap. I wish we had a CCTV that parents could watch sometimes.
Sorry, hope that wasn't patronising. Smile

I can't believe I'm contemplating watching the England match on my own Hmm

LinusDKD · 19/06/2014 19:59

You're right dry, whenever the DC (usually DS) cries when I drop them off at nursery they always tell me when I go and pick them up that it only lasted for a couple of minutes.

And it has happened more than once that DS tells me 'no mama, go away' when I go and pick him up. Hmm

DH is watching the England match tonight!

Just have it on in the background while you chat on here/browse sales Dry, then it doesn't count Wink

Shame about the jumpsuit Marsha, sometimes you just need some time to get used to things.

Glad you had a nice day with your mum santa.

Dune sandals arrived and are perfect. They look so good, I keep looking at my feet and smiling! I think they'll go with lots of things. Yes, I did buy them full price, but they were sold out within the day!

Drywhiteplease · 19/06/2014 20:09

Blair will be on here for the next 90mins Wink have just heard the commentator say "a momentary pause while xxxxxxxx does his hair"!!!!Shock
And there are some really lovely brightly coloured footie boots being worn tonight.
And is it me but are the Urag tops a bit of a snug fit?

Uruguay no 7 and no 20 are wearing one pink boot, one blue boot....Hmm I predict new trend ? Or did they just get mixed up? Or are the colour blind like my father who once went to work with one black shoe,one brown shoe Hmm

I've left DH to watch the match on his own! Having a bath with some Wine and my Ipad.

Maybe I'll find something to buy in the sales....
