Have the Workwear Chatty threads stopped?

Just clearing down my Watched Threads and realised that I've not seen one in Active Convos for ages, can't find one on the first 5 pages in topic.

Have they stopped? Summer is coming!

Love all 3 lurking.

Is the Zara website styling borrowing from M&S?

ElizabethHoover · 22/04/2015 19:36

i am just hiding here, seeking refuge from Remus shoe thread makes sign of cross

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 22/04/2015 20:01

Is it still going? I'm a bit scared of it now.

ElizabethHoover · 22/04/2015 20:04

the amount of threads i post on then hide immediately is embarrassing tbh

Activated the next ghillie flats today. Looked great imo. Not a single fucker commented. I loved them Sad

Plus didn't rub.

MrsBertMacklin · 22/04/2015 22:49

Very interested in the Nine West Byteme flat that only appears to be on sale in the US at the moment. on Amazon, as Nine West main site irritatingly autodirecting to UK site

Don't shop at NW - does anyone know if this style has been released over here before and perhaps will be out later in the year?

Well Eliz I LOVe tohse Next shoes. I think they are the nicest of the ghillie shoe type shoes. I also get majorly disappointed when no one comments on something I love. Surely it's obvious that they/it/whatever is fab and worthy of comment. Needy, moi??

I must check in with your shoe thread Remus! Will Remus suck it up and fling on the trainers??

ElizabethHoover · 23/04/2015 12:47

Bearleigh · 24/04/2015 19:33

I know what you mean lurking when you have something you love and you don't get the positive reaction that you give it in your head.

I have an embarrassing admission... I am not a royalist (at all) but have taken to following a royal jewellery blog, (I love tiaras...) which led on to a separate royal clothes blog. I really admire the style of Princess Mary of Denmark, and since I've been inspired by her when I buy things, I have been getting lots more positive comments about my outfits.

There; I've said it. Obviously I don't wear tiaras like she does.

ElizabethHoover · 24/04/2015 20:33

kid said today
' i like your shoes'
I said to her NO ONE HAS COMMENTED - everyone must hate

we lolled

ElizabethHoover · 25/04/2015 13:08

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 25/04/2015 13:13

Hurray for M&S success.

Who was looking for wide legged black trousers btw? Marks had some lovely wool rich ones in today, at £49.50. Can't find them online, and they were shoved on a rail with loads of static polyester, but they were very, very nice.

lurkingaround · 25/04/2015 14:41

Oh the M&S top is lovely!! You linked a pink sweatshirt a while ago Eliz (at least I think it was you) love it.

You are not alone Bearleigh. I like that princess Letizia in Spain. I don't follow a blog on her tho but what a great idea for a guilty pleasure.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 25/04/2015 16:00

This is nice irl, if anybody is in the market for more stripes btw.

lurkingaround · 25/04/2015 16:55

It is nice Remus. I also saw a stripey one with long sleeves. Sleeves were all lacey stuff. Was lovely. But can I remember where I saw it? Can I heck. Just as well really. This house is bursing at the seams with stripey tops.....

ElizabethHoover · 25/04/2015 17:48

Was me yes. That neon top that's not a tunic as on site is now in local crap marks RIGHT NEAR THE WALK THROUGH. Grr

ElizabethHoover · 25/04/2015 17:49

Love stripes. Love lace.

No no no

Have the Workwear Chatty threads stopped?
RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 25/04/2015 17:55

No, no as in nasty, or no, no as in, 'Get thee behind me, Satan' etc?

I am going to wear my hat tonight - I 'may' look a leetle bit like Paddington in it.

ElizabethHoover · 25/04/2015 18:06

Gif fail. As in keep it away from me I need no more

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 25/04/2015 18:10

I need some. Might get it. Wish it was black and white though, instead of navy.
