Sorry, meant the St Laurent PVC embellished dress. Oh and definitely a pair of rockstuds, please, thank you very much.

Definitely worth the wait today Queen.

Sidling in again to say hi, weddings are a very great inspiration - a couple of friends have had Emilia Wickstead dresses I've been impressed with, much much better than her ready to wear.

I'm not sure of the etiquette (silly word) to join this thread and supportive group but I thought I would add some recent purchases? Saint Laurent medium bucket bag in black (four years post cancer clear scan present!) and a Dolce and Gabbana wool leopard a line skirt from Farfetch.

I have a need of gold/embellished pumps or sandals to go with a dark teal/navy embellished Erdem dress for a significant event . Have scoured the normal suspects to no avail, but if anyone had any suggestions, I'd be very grateful.

MarshaBrady · 05/10/2014 21:42

Texan we love new vogue people that join in. And great news on the scan. Beautiful purchases.

MarshaBrady · 05/10/2014 21:42

Will have a look for gold pumps too.

BrandyAlexander · 05/10/2014 21:52

Hello Texan! Do please jump right in, there isn't any etiquette at all! Also don't feel like you have to be buying something to post. Eg I shop in frenzies and I can go for ages without buying. Excellent news on the all clear scan. My Dsis celebrated the end of her treatment this summer with 3 new handbags.Grin

Sleepwhenidie · 05/10/2014 21:56

There were some lovely glitter heels on the Outnet recently, quite high (is that ok Texan?), blue or gold iirc. Will look to link Smile

Sleepwhenidie · 05/10/2014 21:56

Lucy choi ones...

LinusDKD · 05/10/2014 21:57

Links please Texan Smile

these aren't completely gold but they are embelished and might work with teal/navy

v nice love asymetric

had a dress v similar to this

maradesbois · 05/10/2014 21:58

QueenC amazing! You've definitely nailed it, I am going to dream about the plum Lanvin and fantasy MNV mu tonight!

Blair glad you had a lovely time dress shopping & got a sa who made it a pleasure. Can't take the credit for Pronovias though, must have been someone else.

Linus what a fantastic suggestion Grin. Reminds me of Downton shoot in recent edition of Harper's Bazaar I think where the girls were dressed in modern day couture.

Sleepwhenidie · 05/10/2014 22:00

blue still there

gold current range

santamarianovella · 05/10/2014 22:08

Yay! Glad I didn't miss our red carpet outfits,
Wow wow wow queen! I love every single outfit you chose,and you've got us all right, i absolutely
love both Dior dresses, and yes it's something I would defeintly wear , love how there is movment and volume,but the overall look is simple, no shiny fabric, and linus why can't I have two? need to wear something for the after party!

texan do join us, good news about the all clear scan, fab purchases, we are all ( or is it just marsha and I Hmm ) going through a saint laurent appreciation moment ,

blair sounds good, I've been watching "say yes to the dress" lately it made me think of you!

QueenCardigan · 05/10/2014 22:12

Phew, glad you all like everything.

novice I ended up buying the bissell carpet cleaner thingy Grin

Can't find a navy going out blouse that I like but have found one in cobalt if I dare to break out of my navy blouse habit.

Welcome texan. Absolutely no etiquette here other than join in. And congrats on your scan.

blair glad you had a wonderful day.

marsha bar with food sounds fab. Really looking forward to it.

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 05/10/2014 22:13

Omg thanks mara I was sure it was you, but I just did a search and it was Stokey. Thank you so much Stokey! Flowers
I think my brain is full of coldy germs and I need to sleep. Night voguettes.

maradesbois · 05/10/2014 22:16

Texan I quite like these. Great news about your scan.

maradesbois · 05/10/2014 22:20

QueenC have found you a clutch. Not for your E Saab, just for the hell of it! The midnight blue one in case link doesn't direct to right colour. Love this 440 envelope style, think this one is going on my wish list too.

TexanKenDoll · 05/10/2014 22:22

Sorry, can't link from my phone. I'm a massive Erdem fan, he's amazing and lovely. This dress is called Leola if you google. I've looked at various Manolos( have Hangisi in topaz and black so didn't want another, snd liked Euphrasia but no blue available), Jimmy Choo and Rochas but no luck.

On a different note, I'm loving Moda Operandi's new London presence. They have always had a great buying team but they seem to have 'got' our preferences now. My purchases this pre season are (mainly) Preen, D&G and Rochas.

Drywhiteplease · 05/10/2014 22:25

Oh stay Texan it's lovely here.
Grin QueenC at buying the sweeper....not just fashion here!

Ok......building update it's been a long time my new bedroom is decorated! No carpet, curtains or wardrobes yet...but eta is beginning of Nov. it's looking great and we are using the new bathrooms which are fantastic. As a result we are having a frugal Christmas . I need a dressing gown Grin that's all. Impossible to find a nice one I must be a granny

Drywhiteplease · 05/10/2014 22:28

leola this one Texan? I LOVE his stuff. V feminine .

TexanKenDoll · 05/10/2014 22:33

Yes, that's it.

Drywhiteplease · 05/10/2014 22:35

Texan
Rossi
McQueen but would a sandal like in the photo be less "gold"?

Drywhiteplease · 05/10/2014 22:37

Choo loved these last year

maradesbois · 05/10/2014 22:38

Amazing dress Texan. What about these?

MarshaBrady · 05/10/2014 22:40

Me too QueenC will be great fun.

Santa I know re Saint Laurent!

The Christmas discussion has motivated me to book flights. Done! Gosh I find that stressful, dates, places times etc. I made dh check everything, and still missed something with the accommodation I have to fix, argh.

AmberNectarine · 06/10/2014 07:05

Aw, wow QueenC, I love my picks - would probably be a rebel and wear the leather dress with the Givenchy flats (which I have now pinned to my wishlist btw, so thanks for that!)
