any good Novice?

BrandyAlexander · 17/01/2015 21:44

Thanks Shop, that's what I thought. I will stick with the Frozen chocolate I have already got. Think I am done now! I thought that gorgeous jumper might be James Perse. I had a search but it isn't him. You would look such a hottie in it!

shopafrolic · 17/01/2015 21:46

If you ever track it down then shout.... Frustrating
I've decided I want a grey handbag too. Not that I can buy one ATM. Will have to save this year.

OneLittleLady · 17/01/2015 21:55

Well you definitely shouldn't feel old! But I can understand why you do if your DS is about to overtake you in height Wink

santamarianovella · 17/01/2015 22:14

Aww! Thanks liberty it really looks great on you, Smile,

novice bad bad! Grin that's too much Candy, I think the choc lollies are a better option,

mara we are in tonight too, started watching boyhood,But didnt like it,

maradesbois · 17/01/2015 22:19

Novice I am quite strict about rationing sweets but don't mind other parents giving them out. They all go into a cupboard which is currently bursting at the seams with Christmas stuff. Yesterday dsis and I did the marshmallow experiment on all the dc (put 2 x marshmallows on table, can either choose to eat one straight away or both if you wait 5 mins) and were on the whole pleasantly surprised at the willpower! Grin

santamarianovella · 17/01/2015 22:19

Lol! I can't imagine wearing this and not fear for my eyelashes, it reminds me of that scene from "there's somthing about Mary"

LinusDKD · 17/01/2015 22:22

We watched the Best Exotic Marigold Hotel tonight, a very sweet film with nothing but great actors.

novice I wouldn't mind you giving that bag of sweets to my DC but I would discreetly 'lose' it when we got home. (I do realise that will only work when they're young Wink )

I don't mind them eating their bodyweight in sweets at the party though. Grin

shop We'll keep you company! I'm used to DH traveling a lot but it's still hard every time Sad

BrandyAlexander · 17/01/2015 22:24

Shop sorry missed your link. Yes, that's what I have got. I am strict too in sweets so the dcs and I have a deal that most party bag sweets are for me. They hand them over as well!Grin

Santa, OMG, what are on her boobs?!Shock

muddlingalongquitenicely · 17/01/2015 22:29

Pasties! (Seen them at burlesques shows)
I just watched the dallas buyers club it was ok but was browsing pin and looking up a cream from my monthly beauty box thing.

santamarianovella · 17/01/2015 22:31

linus I trick my dd into believing she ate all the sweets Grin, she usually says oh ya I remember ,bless her,

Nipple pasties novice, I now fancy one of the sequinned ones,but what do the do? What are their function? I really want to know!

muddlingalongquitenicely · 17/01/2015 22:32

For twirling if you can get the technique right Wink

muddlingalongquitenicely · 17/01/2015 22:34

I have no idea about the ones with out tassels though

BrandyAlexander · 17/01/2015 22:37

Have just had somewhat quizzical look from dh as I poured over the nipple tassels on the ap website. £45?!!!

LinusDKD · 17/01/2015 22:42

Lol novice!

santamarianovella · 17/01/2015 22:45

Sadly I don't twirl, but surely when the bra comes off, its not the time for twirling Hmm does it hurt? Do u have to use glue?

linus I just did a calculation of distances between where we both live,and the best meeting place would be at your mother's ,think of all the fun we could have!

BrandyAlexander · 17/01/2015 22:49

Santa, they have adhesives. For £45, I would expect those adhesives to be like super glue!!

muddlingalongquitenicely · 17/01/2015 22:49

When i have been to a burlesque show they wear those half cup bras with a waist cincher or a corset so by the time they have shimmied their way out of those its near the end of the act so they do the twirling then.
You use body tape (like double sided) to stick them on.
Twirling is basically a jiggle of the shoulders from what i could see the tassels dont take much to get going

LinusDKD · 17/01/2015 22:53

OMG santa! Be careful what you wish for, DM is an acquired taste. Wink

novice for that amount of money they would have to do the twirling all by themselves.

santamarianovella · 17/01/2015 23:00

You have to buy these for the pasties,...ok

linus Grin now dh is laughing too, he says ya that's what every man needs in bed ,a pair of propellers Glued on nipples ! Grin

bettykt · 17/01/2015 23:01

Santa have you pinned the pasties on your considering board Grin

Novice my dc have been given those at parties before, they look really nice, was not annoyed at all, like most of you on here with young dc mine don't eat too many sweets, they get put in a cupboard and forgotten about and months later I throw them away as they're all stuck together.

Just finished watching Spiral, will check out pin, *Karbea who are you on pin? Off to check out all the swaps.

OneLittleLady · 17/01/2015 23:06

i wish these hot flushes would go the heck away, they make me so miserable. Dsis is on the sofa tonight as i've had a bad day, she's watching tv while i'm mnetting

Must do the laundry and sort some drawer space out tomorrow. I am determined that i won't be buying any clothes except holiday clothes until next A/W. you must all help me stay strong!exceptions ONLY for essential items that need to be replaced and tights/socks/underwear/pjs

I now have the burgundy version of the velvet shoes i bought yesterday, so pleased, i'm going to be wearing them with all sorts of things, mainly skirts and dresses though as i rarely wear my jeans, they are generally only worn in really bad weather or if i have no clean tights

QueenC new look have some very pretty, block heeled silver t-bar shoes that made me think of you when i saw them. I'd fancy them myself if they had a slightly smaller heel, they also have them in blue velvet though i'm not sure what sizes they have online

LinusDKD · 17/01/2015 23:06

I'll dream of propeller nipples tonight thanks to your DH santa! Grin

Night night!

QueenCardigan · 17/01/2015 23:08

Ugh and ouch . Don't they hurt to take off Hmm.

Just been fantasy shopping to look at links for tomorrow morning...either I've drank too much Viognier or everything out there is hideous. Do like this jacket though.
