Urgh - slightly fuzzy headed today. Managed to get locked in the toilets at the restaurant last night - the chef had to remove the lock with a knife(!) Then we went to karaoke box, then on to a club. Still, was a good night and lovely to spend time with DH. Wore black Helmut Lang dress, pointy shoe boots, grey faux fur coat and blue studded snakeskin Michael Kors clutch.

Looking forward to a night in this evening! May follow One's example and dig out my onesie!

Fedupnagging · 08/11/2014 08:59

Oh dear Amber, sounds like you need Brew and bacon sandwich. Still, sounds like a fun night and as you are young your recovery should be swift!

Novice, thought you were slowing down about now? It's lovely eating out but eventually home cooked food is needed. Have fun today Hmm - I can guess where you are going. Dh didn't get tickets this year so is v disappointed and intends to watch in the pub instead.

Liked the dress you linked last night Dry and the leggings Karbea linked. They look very snug though but great if you are very slim of thigh.

One how are you feeling today?

shopafrolic · 08/11/2014 09:30

Topaz have a wonderful birthday weekend and happy birthday for tomorrow Wine Thanks Cake
I had a lovely night, wonderful food and good company. We were at Luton Hoo where Eyes Wide Shut and some of Four Weddings was filmed (and many others). Finished with a raspberry martini in the Mansion House. Great people watching. Dinner again tonight with girlfriends this time. Tempted to wear the leathers for a third night but might give the HL red dress its first outing if not too cold.

MarshaBrady · 08/11/2014 10:29

I'm in Liberty and there's a Stella M navy coat which is actually less expensive. It's throwing me!

santamarianovella · 08/11/2014 10:42

Stay focused marsha,

shop sounds like a great night,

fedup I didn't know its your birthday tomorrow ! Happy birthday,

MarshaBrady · 08/11/2014 10:44

Yes you're right. Scrap that.

Fedupnagging · 08/11/2014 10:50

Santa it's not my birthday tomorrow, it's Topaz's which reminds me, hope you have a lovely weekend Topaz with both your dc's home.

Marsha, go get a coffee and give yourself a good talking to then go and get what you went in for Wink

MarshaBrady · 08/11/2014 10:57

Haha Fedup

I did it. Recuperating with an espresso in the cafe.

Went with the Maison Margiela. Extra £30 off voucher, every little helps!

Shop sounds lovely.

Thanks for keeping me on straight and narrow too Santa Grin

Novice extended entertaining gets hard, nice to have a break.

Topaz have a lovely birthday weekend.

shopafrolic · 08/11/2014 12:27

WOOOOOOOP! how do you feel Marsha?

MarshaBrady · 08/11/2014 12:41

Shop a bit faint Grin

shopafrolic · 08/11/2014 12:47

Grin The Voguettes are here hand holding. I think it's a great buy. You've wanted one for years........

bettykt · 08/11/2014 12:52

Been lurking but not posting due to working loads, but not a Novice kind of workload just loads for me I'm also a bit poorly too along the lines of Sleep and One have taken loads of meds and am determined to shift it.

Wearing my Me + Em kimono ruched top and grey skinnies so at least I don't feel too shabby whilst coughing my lungs up Grin

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 08/11/2014 13:18

Well done Marsha! Grin

You have reminded me, I need to get a button sewn back on my J Crew peacoat. I would do it myself but I don't think I would do a good enough job. The seatbelt in my car rubbed against the thread last year, and I need it to be super strong!

MarshaBrady · 08/11/2014 15:28

Thanks!

This is the peacoat for anyone I haven't bored with it shown yet Grin

OneLittleLady · 08/11/2014 15:33

Afternoon all.

I think the virus is slowly shifting though I still don't feel great and yes, I am in one of my onesies again it's a giraffe this time

Yay marsha you've waited so long, you totally needed it!

novice take care lovey, peppermint oil capsules are a life saver for bloated tummies btw

Drywhiteplease · 08/11/2014 16:12

Oh Marsha that's brill. You've wanted one for so long. Well done!
Shop how did you feel in your outfit?
Novice hope you're warm enough. I can hear the men of the house and extra waifs and strays cheering from the other room.
Fedup happy birthday tomorrow.
Amber sorry but that's made me laugh. The things people do to meet the chef! How exciting Grin
Well all set for my dinner. Feel a bit twitchy because there's so little to do. Salmon has been marinating overnight. Have a lovely selection of tropical fruit and, most importantly the fizz is in the fridge!

Now .... My outfit. Need to have a try on. Am wondering whether my leather skirt is best kept for smart day time. Hmm

shopafrolic · 08/11/2014 16:12

La Moss talks Vogue for QueenC

LinusDKD · 08/11/2014 16:17

Oh well done marsha! It is a thing of beauty and really suits your style.

dry sounds like you have everything under control, as always.

We need pictures of your onesies one Grin

After a busy day I am looking forward to DH making me a cocktail (he's trying to replicate one we had in NY) and later on watching SCD. Yes, my life is one big snooze fest. Wink

Drywhiteplease · 08/11/2014 16:17

Oh, and I've failed in my bid for Mother of the Year, just put DS (nearly 16, 6ft rugby player) to go for dinner with a group of friends in nearby city with the words
"Can you walk back from the station....I'll have had a lot of wine"!!!!! holds head In shame

*disclaimer. He will be back before 10 see I'm quite strict and the station is in a little village.

Fedupnagging · 08/11/2014 16:27

Yay, Marsha you got it - fab!

Dry it's not my birthday - it's Topaz's!

One glad the virus is going but you need to keep resting.

We have friends round tonight but are getting a takeaway and thought I'd copy Dry with the coconut sorbet and fruit but no sorbet sadly in my local waitrose. Picked up a pear and chocolate tart instead!

No idea what to wear yet as we are meant to be heading out to a local bonfire and firework party afterwards and the weather is awful. Am leaning towards maison scotch black jeans and a Vero moda purple and black silky blouse. For the fireworks later, I will look like Michelin man in my big duvet coat and hat!

shopafrolic · 08/11/2014 16:39

It is chucking it down here. Probably shouldn't wear the leathers Hmm

shopafrolic · 08/11/2014 16:42

Those that have the iPhone 6 - are you pleased with it?

santamarianovella · 08/11/2014 16:47

Blush fedup, don't know how i got things mixed up ,hope you have a lovely B day weekend topaz

marsha you will get over the intial shock, you've finally found one that ticks all the boxes,and it looks really great on you,

I've had a total of 6 kids in my house this morning/aftrenoon, dh decided to hide in the basement and watch football with some friends, I can't even hear myself think, still have this buzzing sound going on in my ears,

Looking forward to a quiet evening, will be watching philomena and I've saved myself a piece of the tart tatin I baked for the kids,
God! My Saturday night pales in comparison to shop and amber, but come december and I've got 8 Xmas parties to attend and I'm hosting 2 , so it's so nice to enjoy some lazy evenings,before all that who am I kidding,I want to go clubbing too

maradesbois · 08/11/2014 16:57

Afternoon,

Yay Marsha so glad you went for it, 'tis perfect.

Betty hope you're feeling better soon.

Dry hope all goes well tonight, am sure you're a fab hostess. Wear the skirt!

Topaz happy birthday! Thanks Wine Cake

Horrible day here, need to drag myself off the sofa to go to a dc party but really not in the mood. Champagne in fridge for dh and I later plus scallops and fresh porcini, yum.

maradesbois · 08/11/2014 16:58

Forgot to say Shop have a fab night too!
