Hello, good to know I'm not the only one that has days like that. Part of it is because my hair looks shit as its being cut next week but I've hacked at the fringe so feel better now! Fil is going to be 90 and is having a small party with family and equally old people on Sunday. I've decided on Chinese blue ravello and navy trousers and sandals. Smartish but comfy enough to chase dc around the garden.

amber that's great that you can still fit in so much exercise whilst working. The one thing I'm looking forward to dd starting school is being able to do more. I might start netball.
shop I remember when you got those sandals, you loved them.
blsir are you feeling happier about lipstick tonight
bernice . The lipstick is great. Looks very grown up on me though. Will be my kick ass lipstick!

Ah yes the flat rockstuds are lovely!

Karbea is it the heeled ones you have?

Love the colour of this Wish I'd spotted this last weekend when it was 20% off everything at French Connection.

Just ordered this and this - will need to see them in real life I think...

shop China = our proper honeymoon which we are trying to plan. Will be Beijing, Hong Kong, Macau and Tokyo hopefully :)

Haha at the quote! Who says that? Someone's mother?

QueenC yes feeling much better thanks! You were all lovely and reassured me. I still need to try the lipstick I got in my goody bag actually!

I have "I hate my wardrobe" days when all my vest tops are in the wash (or hosiery and I have to wear trousers) AND when I'm hormonal.

HappyGirl lovely top. I would need a discount to buy silk from FC too, though they do lovely colours.

Karbea congratulations! What sort of thing will you be wearing? No jeans I take it?

That's great newsvkarbea. How smart do you need to be. And do you get free gym membership?

Love that floral blouse Happy such a pretty print. Am tempted to order.
Last episode of Mad Men today the best thing on tv by far, anyone else watching?

Thanks just'pretty eh.. Think it'd be really nice with jeans..

Lovely tops happy.
justa meant to say that I do that with Pinterest too but it can be dangerous as you might just need one more perfect thing to make the perfect outfit
one how was your scan?

Well done on the new job Karbea!

Btw my best buy recently have been light grey dune brogues. They are so comfortable and best of all I can wear pop socks with them when it is a bit chilly
I also ordered this www.topshop.com/en/tsuk/product/clothing-427/jackets-coats-2390889/trench-coats-macs-3105009/cotton-trench-coat-4273387?bi=1&ps=20 it is lovely and a good fit but I already have quite a few spring coats and jackets.
love the zara jacket shop
one ignore nasty comments, you have great style and it takes guts not to be matchy matchy!
Bernice love the sound of your outfit, the oasis 100% cotton top is a good find will check it out when next near a shop.

That is true queenc I am convinced I need a sleeveless trench coat now

happy these are my rockstuds (I think, mine look more orange).

blair/queen no jeans, gym wear. Yes free membership as many classes as I like, and it sounds like I can do classes whilst I'm at work, which sounds to good to be true tbh!
But I'll really need some new things as my gym kit is very, very, very old!

QueenC the ladies doing the scan made a lot of hmms and ahhs when they were doing it so i don't know if that's good or bad. i've got to go back to the doctors for the results next week. They didn't give me any indications of what if anything they saw though, i'm sure if it's anything to be concerned about, i'll be called in sooner. I do now know though that I have smaller than average size kidneys

Ooh lovely karbea so same style as the ones I like just a different colour. Love that colour actually, it's something different.

Happy has got me looking at stuff in zara
are these nice or not? I have pmt so not sure.

Yes the same. I've only worn them twice, but I've had to walk further than planned both times, and found them really comfy. Which considering I wear flats or heels no higher than 85mm 90% of the time is great credit to the rockstuds.

justa not my cup of tea, sorry.

Aw that sounds good karbea

Not sure about the print on those for trousers just but I had my eye on these

karbea I suppose I worry about spending so much on shoes because all it takes is one hit off a kerb or catch the heel on something and they're wrecked. Bags I have no problem spending on. But I do love them and just got a bonus at work so may throw caution to the wind.. What's also putting me off a bit is that I just bought the Lanvin mini sugar which is also studded - plan on using that on evenings out a lot and they would not be right / would be too much together I think..

justa im not convinced by the trousers myself im afraid.

New thread! Over here.

Come
