Dry how far are you willing to take the love of lace thing?Grin

I meant to say with my dress today I wore a belt a la Shakira circa 2002. Ahem, I found a bag of belts that I put away a while ago.Blush

I'll have my Brew to your WineShop!

Chinks glass to mug with Novice
I'm watching Panorama about Tescos negotiating techniques - v interesting (as an ex employee in that type of business). Interesting to see Sir Terry sticking his oar in.
QueenC he's back on Thursday eve so not much longer. But he only does it once a year nowadays so it's a shock when it happens.
Love that black top QueenC
I laughed when I was at Lib's - there were cardigans in amongst the things she had for me to try. I said "I don't do cardigans" very emphatically. I think I must be your polar opposite as I just don't factor them into my wardrobe Hmm

MarshaBrady · 19/01/2015 21:01

I'm really pleased you all laughed, almost worth it. If I have a flashback at 4am I'm listing on here.

I have a break from work this week. Can't wait, loads of nice stuff to do.

Drywhiteplease · 19/01/2015 21:03

Cardigans? In winter colours? liberrrrtttttyyyyy come tell me what you have one of them is probably the burgundy one that I gave to you. shop I reckon we are polar opposites-you're all fierce and rock chick and I'm girly and casual. We should get together one day dress up in each other's clothes for a laugh Grin

muddlingalongquitenicely · 19/01/2015 21:06

I need to sort out lunches for tomorrow but im being pinned down on the chair by 2 snuggly dogs and pin. No one really needs lunch tomorrow do they??

shopafrolic · 19/01/2015 21:16

Would love that QueenC not sure I'm fierce?
Snuggly dogs are lush. Food can wait.

QueenCardigan · 19/01/2015 21:29

Lunch is overrated. Stay with the dogs.

shop fierce as in trendy and rock chickish. Not as in scary. It was a compliment Smile

shopafrolic · 19/01/2015 21:34

I'll take it love. I actually quite like it, am only just remembering that that's how I used to be :)

BrandyAlexander · 19/01/2015 21:44

Dry, definitely couldn't wear either. All that lace would just be so so so wrong on me (ignoring the lace wedding dress I almost chose!) and the peplum would just be like having a big arrow pointing to my arse!

I saw something else. gosh, they have run out of my size.Shock

BrandyAlexander · 19/01/2015 21:47

Eleanor wedding dress that i agonised over. It's a bit lacy!Grin

OneLittleLady · 19/01/2015 21:53

i'm debating some burgundy leather ankle boots, not online so can't link. I don't know if I should just stick to black though. no clothes buying as yet here, I stayed out of the shops apart from to do a return and just haunted the coffee shop today

Karbea · 19/01/2015 22:11

Hellooo,
Rhoc is on!
Back from yoga!

Wore my uniqlo heat tech top today, they are very see through aren't they!

I've emailed the hoc lady to arrange my style day. Hoping to do that the second week of feb.

I'm out twice this week for dinner with gfs, I've nothing to wear.

I need:-
Some new yoga clothes and Tracksuit type things I can wear over to keep,warm going and coming from there.
Some things to wear going to and from work, although today I found that I can wear my uniform trousers over jeans, so that's opened up,some options, although I'd like to wear maybe smarter trousers than jeans all the time - not sure these'll be practical,walking the dogs :/
General casual stuff - but nicer than jeans and a top, which I'm bored of!
And I need some more eve wear, my entire evening wardrobe is black...

libertychick · 19/01/2015 22:19

Really glad the fushia jumper is generating compliments shop. It does look great on you.

I am shattered. Exercise class tonight. Took me about 30 mins to be able to speak after it.

QueenC have a look at my knitwear and eBay pin board for cardigans. I feel a bit Blush but the burgundy one was too small and didn't work on me so it got charity shopped. Feeling bad now. I should have offered it on here first. As well as the ones on the boards I also have a Gap superfine merino one black which is lovely but size M so probably too big for you.

Drywhiteplease · 20/01/2015 07:24

QueenC really lovely VM blouse btw

Morning!

We have snow here! It started last night and this morning we woke up to a white landscape. And it's still snowing.

Most of my day will be spent indoors though as DS has been poorly since yesterday but I will have to go to the supermarket to get a few things so I hope the roads have been cleared.

Today I am trying to channel some Parisian chic Wink inspired by all your talk about French style. Leigh skinnies, Brooks Brothers shirt and one of my Asos merino men's jumpers.

The look will be totally ruined by my Ugg Adirondack snow boots but ballet flats are not an oprion today Grin

LinusDKD · 20/01/2015 07:46

Oh and dry I haven't had a chance to go to the post office yet but will try to send you that jumper asap!

libertychick · 20/01/2015 08:15

Linus I still have not gone to PO with your jumper but I will do it tomorrow as I am working at home all day.

The black blouse is gorgeous QueenC. Was too tired to look at it properly last night.

Back to black for me today - updating my workwear will take a while - but will wear the orange scarf to give it a lift.

shopafrolic · 20/01/2015 08:15

I love snowdays Linus - hope DS feels better soon so he can enjoy it to the full.
Today I'm wearing Lib's Stories black reversible sweatshirt. Love it. Can't wear the other side so it will be black side out but it has a good high crew neck which works well for me. Khaki GAP chinos and layers of Uniqlo heat tech incl leggings. SOOOO cold. Not looking forward to walking the dog later although the scenery will be pretty.
Dry love the comments from your DS and DD - tell them they have no idea how cool you really are. And I'm thrilled to hear you're still loving the Burberry scarf. Good stuff.

MarshaBrady · 20/01/2015 09:14

Morning, Linus snow sounds lovely.

Last minute meeting invite (agency not client) am in my running kit. I really need to run today and have a rule about not putting it on without a run.

WWYD?

MarshaBrady · 20/01/2015 09:15

Maybe I can change trainers and jumper but I suppose the leggings and shorts have to go too!

libertychick · 20/01/2015 09:20

Could you do a quick 20 min run Marsha?

MarshaBrady · 20/01/2015 09:27

Lib not sure I can do 20 mins, needs to be a goodun today and then the whole shower thing takes ages. I just have a resistance to getting changed twice, silly I know! I have time after the meeting I'll do it then.

Mind you they do fun runs there on a Friday so they are all up with the running thing.

I think Sleep was good at the kit on in morning, no digression rule and it's stuck with me.
