[LinusDKD]

We're open for business! Everything from M&S to Manolo, Topshop to Tod's and H&M to Hermès.

Following on from here

Ooh FedUp I may have been to TKMaxx too! And bought (guess what.....) - yes more jeans!!!! But I did clear out another 5 pairs. I also got a pair of grey jbrand skinnies for £39.99 & a pair of Rag & Bone leather & fabric skinnies for £59.99. I will try & find links. There was also a lovely Edun boyfriend coat for £79.99 from £400ish, but it's too hot to think coats! I will probably regret it.....
Lovely purchases Marsha

Also saw this - lovely quality bag for the price.

Think these Rockstud lookalikeys these are lovely too here. I love them styled with jeans and a white shirt here. I think they are my new blog crush (note to self, need to get out more...) Happy weekends all.

whattowear very as well about your TK Maxx haul!

I really like that print linus but I'm not sure I could do a collarless coat

Just lost a huuuge post

Love the scarf and jacket Marsha

Liberty nice to see you back posting, lovely Coast blouse

Good TK Maxx purchases Fedup I was in my local one today and they didn't have anything great in it, may need to travel further afield to another one.

Challenge MNV Can anyone help me track down some shoes that look like this? pointy leopard print shoes have been after a pair for ages but can't seem to find a pair, my budget is mid high street, i.e Cos, M Dutti, B Republic, Reiss etc This is the look I'm trying to achieve here

Also, I'm being super cheeky I'd like a silk tee too, preferably, dove grey, maybe white perhaps cream with sleeves. Cheers

love this shirt but unfortunately they don't deliver to where I live.

Great price for 100% cotton and they also have other colours.

Hello! Sooo tired. I think I have had about 15 hours sleep in the last 6 days! we had a 2 day team event so got back this evening.

I had forgotten posting last night, but I went to a karaoke bar (I was a riiight hogger on the microphone, joined in with everything as we had our own room!) then clubbing. I have a team of 100 people, half of whom are in the 20s, a handful are teenagers. Anyway, they like it when I join in, so there I was at 2am throwing some shapes on the dance floor wearing my Atwoods. Pure adrenalin. The club was in a student town so there were lots of them there, quite a few of them these children had a go at trying to chat me up. Bless.

QueenC, v sorry to hear about your dd.

Dry, bet you're looking v fab tonight and being all gorgeous and smart and funny.

I wore posh jeans for the first time ever! I have to admit they felt nice!

Blooming heck! Leopard flats are hard to find! Shoes for Betty

or these accessorise ones

Thanks Liberty I thought I almost found them but I really can't do a pink rim

Novice you raver you,

Not quite what you want Betty but these Jemina Vine shoes are gorgeous.

Just a quick catch up. Lovely meal out tonight with too much wine. Wore mu outfit of zara star blouse and jeans. Thanks for well wishes for dd. Having now had 3 doses of antibiotics, she seems much better so I'm hoping we've nipped in the bud before it becomes a kidney infection like last time.

shop love that top but as linus and dry know, I have an irrational hatred of exposed zips! lib how long is that coast top? I'm thinking it may be too short for me? House party tomorrow night and I fancied something new to wear but I haven't got time for it to happen. Not sure what I'm going to wear tbh.

Coast top comes to top of hip bone on me QueenC.

Apologies for my very crass butting in, I've read this thread a few times, and never felt I had the time to contribute. Hope it's ok I jump in, the wedding dress discussion dragged me in..

How massively exciting!!! I knew exactly the dress I wanted even pre engagement (my mother suggested buying it almost a year previously.. ). I bought frequently from a vintage couture dealer in LA , who previously worked in the film industry. My dress was Dior couture vintage, made by the man himself and designed for a golden age actress. I wanted to be covered ( long arms, high neck) and had bespoke Rene Caovilla shoes and aged family lace veil with miniature seed pearls and bespoke Victoria Grant (adore her!) headpiece. My going away outfit was Vivienne Westwood (Bacchanalia) dress and Alaia sandals. Such a truly happy day, and we recently celebrated our 5th anniversary. Sorry for the intrusion...

Welcome Texan. Your wedding dress sounds amazing!

Morning all and hi Texan, love the description of your wedding dress - it sounds amazing.

Are these any good Betty? They had them in TK but try as I might, I couldn't squeeze my trotters into a size 3 shoe!

What, more jeans? .

Lib I love those Jemina Vine shoes. I'd not come across them/her before but there are some lovely shoes on that site.

Did I read somewhere that black jeans are the jeans to be wearing this winter? If so, I definitely need a new pair.

Welcome Texan, what a fan wedding dress.

My TK Maxx also sucks Liberty. I tend to go to the one on Charing Cross Road and suspect tourists snaffle all the good stuff.

Watched a great doc on Duran Duran last night, made me think of your uneducated colleagues Novice they're still going strong but with just Simon and Nick Rhodes left.

Not much fashion news. I've got a few long-sleeved Boden tees on the way so will see how they go, have returned everything I've ordered from there so far.

Arrgh double post, thought I'd lost the first one, more tea needed.

Had a fab night out last night with girlfriends and I channelled this look but without the rips, obviously.

However, my ahem leather biker jacket cost me £20 from TK about 3years ago ( bought for a fancy dress party). But, I have worn that jackets literally hundred of times as it is a style that suits me and goes with just about anything.

My question to you voguettes is, do you have an item that cost literally nothing and has, surprisingly, been a favourite?

Terrible English, not literally nothing as in free! But you know what I mean...

Great look Fedup...love lace,denim and leather together.

Did someone say vintage DIOR? Texan what an amazing wedding outfit

I've been reading about going on a fashion diet to save money. True but will ignore

Fedup that's a good question.....I have loads of things like that. Will have a think and get back.

Lovely evening out last night...felt great in my outfit. Nice to talk fashion and football

So I've got my autumn wish list:
Black suede courts (Whistles)
Leather pencil skirt (Jaeger)
Flat black ankle boots (Pettys)

Perhaps I should go on a fashion diet after all

P.s can I come on your work night out....sounds like fun

That was for novice

Good question Fedup. I have a short grey work skirt I got from H&M 2 years ago that gets so much wear. It was £15. CPW must be pennies by now.

I bought a pair of sterling silver faux pearl earrings in Accessorise last week. They are the perfect pearl size, shape, colour etc. I predict I will be wearing them a lot.

DP black viscose/poly/cotton boxy round neck fine knit sweater.....about to die but I can't find replacement. Goes with everything. V cheap.
