Phew have finally caught up, haven't managed to look at any links yet. Loved the jeans/Breton question, probably too late but I'd wear like this Breton and leopard

Novice re: Nespresso put your cup filled with water in the microwave to heat it up, also make sure your milk is hot, either microwave or use your frother, re: Grand Crus I'm a fan of Roma not too weak not too strong, quite smooth although i have defected to Dualit no. 7 which they sell at Sainsbury's which means I never run out!

Dry I'm considering a Zarita, not sure if lace is me but I really love that dress, Blair you look amazing in yours.

Blair I don't know if this is you, probably not but I have this jacket BR khaki jacket this was the look I was trying to achieve

Novice hope you're feeling a bit better. Flowers

Forgot to say welcome back Grumpy and hello and welcome to Vegas Off to look at links.

muddlingalongquitenicely · 02/05/2015 19:02

What a day hairdressers and manicure this morning. Then collected contacts picked up a few things in boots and tried to find a new smaller purse for my bag. Met up with DH who went shopping for some clothes and now we have just come back from a wedding didnt stay all day as another busy day tomorrow and we were all shattered.

muddlingalongquitenicely · 02/05/2015 19:05

shoes picked these up last night at a bargain £15 wore them today and very comfy.

bettykt · 02/05/2015 19:35

Muddling your hotel room looked lovely, have you used your new Mulberry bag yet?

muddlingalongquitenicely · 02/05/2015 19:44

Used my bag this morning Betty I love it! The handle is the right size to wear over my shoulder but its also comfortable to wear in the crook of my arm if necessary.
I wish i could get the somerset tote in grey.

Fedupnagging · 02/05/2015 19:45

Evening, just popping in to say hi. Will catch up on links tomorrow.

Had a lovely few days away and although the hotel was nice, not a patch on muddling's hotel.

Have spent the afternoon drinking with girlfriends and now need to get ready to go out for supper - could really do with a nap first but no time! am too old for this drinking all day lark!

What to wear........

LinusDKD · 02/05/2015 19:46

Evening!

MyVegasBaby welcome!

maz maybe a bit too late but I really like the black and white espadrilles and the Vans too.

Still frustrated as I haven't bought anything yet. I just keep dithering over things (when they're still in stock that is) and then I ask DH's advice and that makes it even harder.

I showed him some black leather Lanvin ballerina flats and his reaction was 'Eurgh'. Hmm

The black suede Tods's (not the Gommini but the ones with a proper sole) he liked better but I'm still hesitating.

Isn't it always the case that when you have money to spend you find zilch, and when you can't afford it you see 10 things you absolutely love. (I know, First World Problem!)

Hello all.

Good to see Grumpy again!

Hi MyVegasBaby . I bought silver sandals this week but in Question Air and they don't have them on their website so that's not much use to you. The brand is Bella Moda.

Mazjacks, I prefer the Soludos or the first Asos pair.

Glad you enjoyed the style day, Shop. I haven't had it done but I'd say I'm a natural classic.

Betty, I love the Zarita dress also. My cousin is getting married next year so may get one then.

Stokey, I wanted to like the Gap girlfriend jeans but they just weren't a good fit on me. I love their resolution true skinny though. The best boyfriend jeans I've found are Current/Elliott fling but I don't want to pay full price. I'd like white please.

Have been doing a bit of shopping: Gap hat, shorts, Gap dress. I like Gap atm. Also bargain Tory Burch in the blush pink colour. And American Vintage grey jeans. Also ordered a burgundy MBMJ Natasha bag with the Harvey Nicks discount. Now madly ebaying to recoup the money!

Have fun tonight, Fedup!

I'm in PJs already awaiting DH and an Indian takeaway.

mazj4cks · 02/05/2015 21:05

linus I've had things waiting 'in basket' online all week now and then when I've finally made a decision on the items I want, they're out of stock in my size too!! And I normally like some things that are a bit different then when I ask DH, he pulls a face or says a comment that then puts me off, but I think we've both learnt now that if I really like something I'll wear/buy it regardless! Grin but I still like to have his opinion!

I think I'm just going to order a load of things and try stuff on! We also have a child free day on Monday so maybe I can rope DH into a spot of shopping and lunch WinkGrin

I think out of all the links I put...the vans are prob the winner so far! Smile

MyVegasBaby · 02/05/2015 21:31

Cranagh love that Gap dress, what's the sizing like?

Drywhiteplease · 02/05/2015 21:53

Mwaaaaaaaaa.......love you all xxxxxxxxxx

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 02/05/2015 21:56

Quick post as I'm a bit drunk jaeger bombs and Irish Flags, will regret this tomorrow but novice I've just seen your post, thank you so much! I will read and digest properly tomorrow. Flowers

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 02/05/2015 22:01

Dry love ya too, your shed pics on fb look great fun, not surprised you're a bit merry! xx

Cranagh · 02/05/2015 22:40

It hasn't arrived yet, I threw it in with an order for the kids, I'll let you know.

Stokey · 03/05/2015 08:04

Morning all - welcome to the thread Vegas

Burgundy Natasha sounds lovely Cranagh, I got the aluminium one for my birthday last year and love it. Thanks for the GAP advice - the girlfriend ones are going back but I kept the straight greys, all though even they were a bit loose round the middle after a day of wearing. I think my hips are just too big for my waist Confused. Got to get back on the shred case this month. I didn't size down QueenC but should have I think, I'd say they're definitely worth a try at that price.

I like those Jigsaw espadrilles, but think I will end up buying another pair of Toms first - they're just so comfy for kicking around with the kids.

QueenCardigan · 03/05/2015 08:16

Morning all. Welcome vegas. About to spend my Sunday morning my favourite way and do some fantasy shopping....

MyVegasBaby · 03/05/2015 08:19
