Well done shop Grin not long now!

I'm on my way to bond st for 2nd dress fitting. I haven't been posting much because work has been really full on Hmm so a half day feels like a treat. Dermatologist later - will squeeze some shopping in between! - and then going out with a friend for dinner. Wearing acne jeans, pink equipment shirt, trench coat and camel suede pointy boots.

Will try to catch up properly tomorrow... Well done on the job decision Marsha. Dinner with sisters sounds lovely dry and so does the outfit.

I totally have no fashion mojo so far this week. I've either been clearing out ds room or taking dc swimming neither of which require any great style. Weather looking good for the weekend though.

I occasionally check RM to nose at local properties and am always Shock at what ours must be worth now.
karbea glad you're feeling better.

Karbea · 01/04/2015 14:16

shop I've ordered those jeans, they look a good colour, I've never had jeans from all saints but for that price they were definitely worth a punt, thank you!

Blair we might bump into each other Wink

Feel beaten up, love a firm massage, could have stayed there all day. Nails look good too. All packed. London here I come! Think my Stans will get a lot of wear this week.

Amber I love those bikinis, a bit different.

LinusDKD · 01/04/2015 14:55

karbea take it easy! Don't try and do too much in one go.

lib how are you feeling?

amber love those bikinis. Great use of colour.

dry DH gave me a spa massage voucher for Christmas and I still haven't been. Blush

mara both DC are cheese monsters as well and DS loves steak tartare but any hint of spice or herbs and he starts to complain.

One of his first words was 'picy' to tell us the food was too spicy. Hmm

I ordered two men's white tees with a deep v from Asos and they arrived today and are perfect. 100% cotton and a better cut that the women's ones.
Just hope they wash well.

Think I hate you a bit one - I've just spent a miserable hour stood in a freezing playground in the drizzle!

Maybe Pistols were bought too long ago... Hmm

Cpw without a doubt the Maison Margiela peacoat. Feel guilt over the zero wear Stella and Marant however. Must try harder.

Which zero wear Marsha?? Links?

QueenCardigan · 01/04/2015 20:25

Not sure I can name just one thing as I wear them all but I do seem to wear this tee a lot although only on my at home days. Which says a lot about my life really Grin. The Uniqlo heatech have also been worn to death. And the oasis grey cross body bag as it's just easy on the school run and I don't mind throwing it in the boot with book bags, PE kits, scooters etc.

bettykt · 01/04/2015 20:27

Love the colour of your bag QueenC

Best CPW definitely the Pistols, considering I only bought them in Jan I've worn them constantly. Also my Tippis are a good runner up.

MarshaBrady · 01/04/2015 20:30

Oh no only old stuff that got relegated when I bought the peacoat. The Marant oversize coat from last year. I still love it and am going to wear it this AW again. I found the Maison one too easy to wear.

LinusDKD · 01/04/2015 20:30

Best buy is my cashmere Brunello Cucinello jumper. Soooo soft, no bobbling or pilling at all (unheard of) and works with everything.

I recently washed it for the first time (eeeek!) and it seems fine but I haven't dared try it on yet. Blush

LinusDKD · 01/04/2015 20:31

Yes betty I have worn my Tippis (and Uniqlo and Asos) merino jumpers a lot this winter.
