It's March. Spring is in the air. We are looking forward to losing layers and baring ankles.

This is the volume of the hen do and wedding. Will queen manage to get shop to wear penis boppers Grin. And will we all shed a tear when the beautiful blair gets married.

Following on from here

Santa our grandmothers would have got on brilliantly. More prayer was her solution to all life problems too - prayer and daily 7am Mass which I was dragged to every day when I stayed with her.

QueenCardigan · 09/03/2015 21:44

Oh the trials and tribulations of a 9yo....just had to try and help dd who is having friend trouble-one friend is jealous and wants her to break up with another friend othetwise she will stop being her friend. Where friendships at that age always so complicated?
Hello undecided. Do stay.
Does anyone know where karbea went? Haven't seen her on her for a while.
Lovely dress marsha. I've been quite liking some of the all saints stuff linked recently. I always thought it was a bit too edgy for me.
My brain has turned to mush so I'm off to bed early. Night all.

All you white trainers lover ,have no fear pheobe decided to keep them going till next AW , although I tried breaking down her designs for next Aw, and I truly can't understand it at all Confused

bettykt · 09/03/2015 21:46

Shop are you still looking for a black jumpsuit?

Thanks Lib their children's, the benefits of having small feet although they go up to a size 5.5 which is quite good.

Amber forgot to say I very Envy about your impending Chanel bag purchase, lucky lady.

Just finished a load of work so can play for a bit.

bettykt · 09/03/2015 21:48

they're not their arghhh

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 09/03/2015 21:50

betty the sandals are lovely, and I never remember that about children's shoes, I'm a 4.5! I saw the raspberry flats today in MD and also these tan sandals were gorgeous. Going to look at their kids shoes now though.

QueenC, karbea is definitely around on pinterest but yes, where has she got to on the thread?

maradesbois · 09/03/2015 21:53

Now here's a thing, I am still doing exams but dont get the dreams, must mean they have another significance. Maybe Santa's granny is right Grin.

I thought as much about the Colts Linus. Although I really like my burgundy ones they are another thing I find quite hard to wear as the heel is high for daytime.

Betty like those sandals. Could imagine them styled Stellaesque for summer with a-line denim skirt.

Lib thanks for sparing us! Wondering if Betty's sandals would work for you or too casual?

Undecided welcome, hope you join in.

Marsha I like the look of that dress too.

libertychick · 09/03/2015 21:59

Mara l felt really strange in wooden sole shoes when I tried them. Not sure they would be all that comfortable for running between meetings and Tubes all day.

bettykt · 09/03/2015 22:02

Mara can you believe I had a massive sorting out session at the end of last year and gave away a denim skirt that would have been perfect for s/s. It was literally a few week before QueenQ and everyone started linking them on here. gets herself thrown off Vogue for not keeping on top of trends

AmberNectarine · 09/03/2015 22:03

Let me guess dry - Zoella?

bettykt · 09/03/2015 22:10

Dry I haven't been to Brighton since having dc so it's been a while and I imagine has changed a bit. I remember I used to like wandering down The Lanes.

Fedupnagging · 09/03/2015 22:18

I have just ordered 4 white shirts - fingers crossed I like one of them and then will link.

Betty I got rid of a knee length denim skirt last summer as I didn't wear it; am regretting it now though. Nice sandals btw.

I think I saw a pin from Karbea earlier. I think maybe she is concentrating on decorating at the moment.

Hi to Undecided, welcome to MNV Smile.

Mara meant to say that it sounds like you are having a tough time with your dh away so much at the moment so have some Wine. When is he home? Dh worked away weekly for years so I completely sympathise. now I get hacked off if he works from home too much on my days off!

Drywhiteplease · 09/03/2015 22:31

Yup Amber she's the main one, there seem to be a few spin offs too. Completely baffles me, but these vloggers (?)have a huge influence.

Drywhiteplease · 09/03/2015 22:34

And meant to day......dd cooked a cake one of them had vlogged (?) about and Dd put pic on Instagram, must have tagged the blogger because she likes it or something made it a fav? seriously you could have heard the screams from London! Whole thing makes me feel old Confused

Topazandpearl · 09/03/2015 22:35

Thanks for those kind words earlier lib about those of us who are more sporadic posters. Sometimes I fall so far behind that I feel I need to (and want to) catch up before posting. Then I have so much to read that I forget all I intended to say. It is nice and relaxing though to drop in to familiar and new friends and join in the chat. (Hello undecided).

Also lib your words the other day about why you need collars etc rang through. I think my best looks are my work clothes, typically a Me&Em ruched dress and cropped jacket and don't feel that my weekend looks are as good. Food for thought.

I love Claire Underwood 's wardrobe Dry. I haven't seen Poldark yet and am half reluctant to watch. I had a major crush on Robin Ellis in the first series and think that the new actor looks too handsome (not to mention young).

Well done one! You have done so well and really deserve your holiday.

I hope you feel better soon Blair. I bet you could do without it.

My DH is away this week too mara, but he only goes now and then. It must be really hard for you.

Looking forward to Saturday!

Drywhiteplease · 09/03/2015 22:35

"Meant to SAY" ........"she LIKED it"........ahhhhhhh

Drywhiteplease · 09/03/2015 22:37

Topaz it's like your local here, drop in from time to time, always a familiar face and someone to chat to Smile

Drywhiteplease · 09/03/2015 22:38

Where's GRUMPY I liked her! chic lady.

libertychick · 09/03/2015 22:52

QueenC meant to say earlier I think 9 year old friendships always have been complicated we just didn't tell our Mum's so much / or our parents generation just dismissed it and didn't get involved. It will have helped her just to talk it through.

libertychick · 09/03/2015 22:54

Yes I frequently wonder where Grumpy is - she pops up occasionally on pin. I miss vicariously dressing for the races through her.

libertychick · 09/03/2015 22:57

Dry your comment about here being like a bar has just put the Cheers song into my head...

And on that happy note... bedtime Smile

Fedupnagging · 10/03/2015 08:02

Just popping in to say that I am wearing ankle skimmers, slipper shoes and no socks

shopafrolic · 10/03/2015 08:14

Morning all.
You're brave Fedup
Dry I've emailed you my tourist guide to Brighton. Just shopping for now. Will try and think on bars and restaurants x

AmberNectarine · 10/03/2015 08:25

I LOVE Brighton, my GBF used to live there until v recently. Not sure my bar suggestions would be much use to you though, ahem.

dry I suppose that is the equivalent of when Peter Andre touched my hand at one of his concerts. I almost wet myself and was insufferable for many weeks after at school. Not quite such a bragging right these days...
