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

On homeward bound train...3 hours later than expected because Marsha persuaded me otherwise Smile

What a lovely group. Had such a laugh & was so relaxed & made me feel so welcome.

Bring on the next MU Smile

Glad you had a lovely time Ujj hopefully I'll be at the next one and will be able to meet you.

Have had a very busy day today and am chilling with lots of Wine no Prosecco in the house!

Looking forward to a round up of the MU. The MD sandals turned up today but haven't had time to try them.

Did a long post yesterday on my rubbish iPad answering One and Bernice's questions and it bloody lost it, gaaah. Am too tired to re-post.

Sounds as though my partner in crime kept you out enjoying yourself Ujjayi - glad you had a good time.

Undecided90 · 15/03/2015 07:30

Can someone tell me what colts are please?

shopafrolic · 15/03/2015 07:55

Acne Colts

shopafrolic · 15/03/2015 07:58

Happy Mothers Day Voguettes! Flowers to you all. I may be spending mine in OCC as DS hurt his foot yesterday and still can't weight bear on it Shock

Stokey · 15/03/2015 08:01

Happy Mother's Day everyone.

It was lovely to meet some of you in RL yesterday and put some faces to names.

I arrived lateish just as everyone was finishing lunch but it didn't matter at all.
Marsha was great fun - last man standing at the end - and I loved her casual chic, jeans and a peach jumper.
Blair was lovely and classic with a cream shirt, jeans and delicate jewellery. The perfect blushing bride.
Topaz had a lovely spotty shirt and jeans too, we were at opposite ends of the table so didn't get to speak much.
Ujj looked great in a black neck, black jeans and a very pretty black and silver scarf.
QueenC was the mistress of ceremonies and was wearing a lovely blue and white spotty top and jeans.
Mara had a very pretty blue flowery shirt and jeans and I love her bright blue coat.
Fedup came last but delayed her train to stay a bit longer at the end, rocking Claire Underwood in black and white.

Everyone was wearing ankle boots I think - not very good at recognising what type.
Oh Undecided Colts are ankle boots made by Acne.

I slightly bucked the jeans and boots trend and was wearing a Hush dress and high-tops.

Good fun Marsha and I were left at the end just after Ujj, Fedup and Blair went to catch trains. I got home about 10.30 and had a snack before falling asleep on the sofa Blush

Morning. I gave up with the wifi on the train and made lots of new friends instead as it was a very merry drunk train. A problem with the train delayed me by an hour so I got in at 11.30.

It was great to meet stokey and ujjayi and it was a really lovely, lovely day.

Moving onto purchases...
jacket. I managed to find one in my size so I was very happy as it was very reduced.

And adding Stokey to the round up, who is a walking advertisement for a winter in deep burgundy, or wine colour. Suited you so much. I think I kept saying that too Grin

It was a great night, so nice to meet you and Ujj who is also very pretty and I loved the sparkles, really suited you.

QueenC bought some great stuff, in gorgeous colours.
Mara looked very lovely in floral print and great hair
Topaz looked ace in spots
Blair as ever looking like a stunning bride already!
Fedup very C Underwood agree

I had such a great time Thanks I stopped in some place in Soho on the way home for more to eat! And charged my phone in a plug. Luckily also had an A to Z to guide me to the 176 bus home.

Stokey · 15/03/2015 08:29

Gosh Shop hope your DS is ok... sounds like a bad sprain.

in shopping news, I had a Cos moment this week and bought this black and white stripey jumper and a green flared midi skrt. Actually there was quite a bit of nice stuff in there, I was impressed.

MarshaBrady · 15/03/2015 08:30

Shop hope all is ok, eek

bettykt · 15/03/2015 08:31

Great blazer QueenC law the raw edge detailing. Gives it an edgy look about it, excuse the pun.

Fab round up Stokey great outfits worn by all but where were Blair's* deely boppers, sashes, flashing penises and L Plates? it was a hen do after all Grin

I tried this on. Gorgeous colour but the neck was too high for me.

Help me ladies WWYD? I don't want to be all PFB about DS. He couldn't put weight on his foot at all yesterday and had to be carried everywhere. Today he is walking on his heel. If it's a broken toe presumably they won't do anything anyway? Would you go to UCC or wait? He is 4....

QueenCardigan · 15/03/2015 08:42

shop take him and get him checked out. Which toe is it? They will strap them up anyway. Also if he's not weight bearing then he may need a plaster anyway as dd had one when she buckled a bone.

I expected to love this but it looked nothing special on especially for the price. I was quite disappointed in it.

Shop GO! Even just to put your mind at ease.

QueenC great haul. Love the jacket ESP.
Stokey that stripy jumper is v tempting, a really useful basic.
So glad you all had a lovely time yesterday, knew you would.
