For sunshine, Stans and pretty prints. Pale denim or white broderie.

Whatever you like for Spring, high st or designer.

Morning all! Just woken up after the most amazing meal last night. DS tried his first sushi. He wanted to taste wasabi because of Mater in Cars 2! Needless to say he didn't like that but he had crab and salmon so he did well.
Last day by the pool, we have to check out at 12 and leave here at 4pm so that horrible what to wear and where to shower plan needs to be made.
Karbea I carried my hat with me and put it in the overhead locker.

muddlingalongquitenicely · 13/04/2015 14:15

I usually wedge my hat upside down in the case and fill the head part with underwear and the brim supported by clothing ubderneath so it sits in a dip - if that makes any sense!

MarshaBrady · 13/04/2015 14:21

I'm in Brighton for the day. Cold here!

I am at a soft play activity centre. The dcs are v happy. its loud and noisy but I am having cake and coffee. everyone is a winner. Smile have a lovely time in Brighton Marsha and last few hours of tropical weather Shop!

Fedupnagging · 13/04/2015 14:56

Karbea I do the same as muddling and stuff the brim with underwear/swimwear. I also don't stress if it gets a bit battered as it invariably does!

I thought Kim Sears looked lovely - would have liked to see her hair in an updo though. Judy Murrey also looked great - a very attractive woman. Was also nice to see Andy Murrey smiling!

Washing machine has packed up and can't get an engineer out until Thursday so not impressed. Ds1 will be getting a load to do for me later and am on my way round to a friends for another load.

Shop enjoy your last few hours.

One how about a mooch around Selfridges? I can kill hours in that store just window shopping.

Stokey · 13/04/2015 15:26

Probably a bit late now One but there's a few funky shops in the Soho streets south of Oxford street that you may like. Also & Other Stories at the top of Regent St. Oh and for weird and wonderful perfume Fortnums & Libertys.

OneLittleLady · 13/04/2015 16:02

Happy Anniversary Cranagh FlowersWine [fizz]

MarshaBrady · 13/04/2015 16:49

Shop with the dc, they loved it but it was chilly. I'm sure they could have stayed a few more hours on the beach. We just got on the train and 2 mins away from the beach the cold mist turned to sunshine.
Hope you had a great last day and have a good journey back.

Cranagh happy anniversary.

BlairWaldorfIsGettingMarried · 13/04/2015 17:47

Hi all, thanks all so much for the good wishes and especially Dry's epic post! Just a quick one from me, we had a perfect day/weekend (more to come when I have time) and are now sitting on our balcony in Gran Canaria in balmy heat with treatments booked for tomorrow in the spa. Sounded so weird to hear DH (!!) say on the phone which massage his wife would like Grin

Photos will be available on Thursday (photographer is shit hot?!?!) and I will give the login details to any voguettes that anyone has met in RL (I think that includes you Cranagh? Smile)

So happy Smile I'm having a neck massage tomorrow, my dress really hurt me when I took it off and I realised how true all that stuff is about bras being supported by the band and not the straps!!

Not so short after all, hope everyone is well. More soon, love to all xxx

BlairWaldorfIsGettingMarried · 13/04/2015 17:48

Happy anniversary Cranagh and Shop. Lovely weather for it Grin

BlairWaldorfIsGettingMarried · 13/04/2015 17:51

Oh and hi mazjacks! I saw you on shop's fb and you looked fab (as did she). Welcome!

Suppose I should pay DH some attention now Grin

shopafrolic · 13/04/2015 18:10

Waves to Blair from here

Cranagh · 13/04/2015 18:12

Sounds idyllic, Blair. I would love to see the photos. Liberty and Marsha can vouch for me, I am not a hairy trucker! Grin

Thanks for the anniversary wishes, not doing much and my present is the new house!

Safe travels, Shop.

QueenCardigan · 13/04/2015 18:24

cranagh enjoy your wine and congrats. How many years?
fedup forgot to say welcome home
one- hope you've had a lovely day
shop safe journey home
blair have a fab time

I got lots of compliments on my new shorter hair on the school run which was nice.

BrandyAlexander · 13/04/2015 18:26

Grin at Cranagh - happy anniversary!

Massive Grin at seeing Blair say dh!

Drywhiteplease · 13/04/2015 18:50

Oh Blair so good to hear from you, I loved being virtually at your wedding, you looked so beautiful and happy, infact "glowing"! I love hearing DH say "my wife" even after 17yrs Shock. Enjoy the pampering, sounds fab!

Ok this bag arrived, may not be a designer label but I love it. Pockets everywhere! Will be so useful......could be the ultimate "mum bag"!!!!! Am going to record how many times I use it over the next few months anally retentive

The fashion fairy has been looking after me though think Marsha sent her......2 pairs of flowery trousers why? from Oasis sale are going back, one I didn't even bother trying on because they looked as if someone had already slept in them.

And.......I "ordered" a denim skirt from Boden about 2 weeks ago......hasn't turned up. Don't think I completed the order Confused....its a sign, I don't needa denim skirt or cheap flowery trousers.Grin

LinusDKD · 13/04/2015 18:52

Happy anniversary cranagh!

blair enjoy every last minute of your honeymoon! And yes please, can I see your pictures?

one sounds like you are having a great time shopping in London. Very Envy

LinusDKD · 13/04/2015 18:55

That's a great bag dry! Reminds me of that Tom Ford bag I saw in NY.

libertychick · 13/04/2015 19:00

Big wave to Blair. Yes I can indeed confirm that Cranagh is a real life very lovely lady!

Happy anniversary Cranagh Flowers

Hope you had a good shopping day one.

Very Envy at the holiday pics shop and it looks like you are bringing the lovely weather home with you - 25 degrees on Wed - yay!

Signing off for the next week or so. Really have to focus on study so have banned myself from here Sad catching up will be my reward so lots of lovely links please.

Cranagh · 13/04/2015 19:25

15 years, QueenC! Flown by. DH might not agree! He is still not home so will have wine solo if he doesn't appear soon. I ordered this Zara broderie top, thought you might like it too.

The Baukjen top arrived, too clingy despite the ruching so going back.

Best of luck with your studying, Liberty.

That bag is a lovely shape and colour, Dry.

OneLittleLady · 13/04/2015 19:35

ooooh, someone please vouch for me so i can see the fab fab pictures! I am not hairy nor do i live under a bridge and i have appeared in person though not recently as i've been so ill.

I've had a lovely day all to myself, haven't bought loads, have been thinking more carefully about what I need but in a moment of rash impulse and in a homage to amber I bought a very cheap pineapple print skirt for wearing when it gets warmer

Karbea · 13/04/2015 20:55

No one can vouch for me, so can someone post a pic of blairs dress on here even if you blank out her face if that's better?

shopafrolic · 13/04/2015 20:56

Sat in the hotel lobby with my sad face on. Feeling sticky in jeans and a Breton. First time with legs covered this week. 12 hour flight ahead of us. Wish me luck. Sad
