Final thought - Novice I love the jumpsuit you bought - think it will really suit you as long as it is neat fitting.

shopafrolic · 05/06/2015 12:21

love this - HOW MUCH though???

libertychick · 05/06/2015 13:51

Great clutch shop but definitely one for outnet clearance in about 2 years time Grin

As I said before so very wise about everyone else's life! Need to work on my own.

Love those shoes Bernice ahem shopping ban??? Smile

Broke my shopping ban today - lovely red top from Cos. Will link when I get to laptop.

Sending lots if positive vibes your way one.

Detest my outfit today! Have managed to get it all wrong. Blaming PMT. And my hair is a frizzy mess with the humidity. Going to work from home for rest of day. Can't wait to change into trackpants and a t.

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 05/06/2015 14:00

Hi all. One you will be great, good luck and I'll be thinking of you at 2:25 :) Outfit sounds perfect.

Bernice the H&M flats were true to size on me, 38 = 5. They're lovely but delivery is a PITA. I was also going to mention them again for Marsha as they have them in a pale blue here. Obviously nowhere near as nice as Lanvin but you could get them as well!

shop thanks for pm, am about to send one back. If you love that clutch, have you seen the stickers she does?

Lib very wise words. The last time I was writing a lot each day (probably November-December Blush) I was spending a lot less money on clothes and felt happier. It's all about the balance isn't it?

Topshop order has arrived! This week has been like Christmas...

Good luck one! Thinking of you!

LinusDKD · 05/06/2015 15:01

The sandals have arrived and they are perfect. Phew!

Such speedy delivery as well (I know Londoners are used to this but it's very rare in my neck of the woods)

I am NOT going to have another look at that site! Grin

LinusDKD · 05/06/2015 15:07

Ok, I couldn't resist a little look

these are gorgeous and if they had a rounded toe I would seriously be considering them.

LinusDKD · 05/06/2015 15:10

drool

Too pale for me but they also do them in black...

LinusDKD · 05/06/2015 15:11

LinusDKD · 05/06/2015 15:24

nude flats for marsha

libertychick · 05/06/2015 15:35

Oh those flats look perfect for Marsha

This is my new top Love it, very flattering.

libertychick · 05/06/2015 15:53

Jacket for Novice

Karbea · 05/06/2015 17:29

I think I'm going to cry :( I've just done Nike towers, Adidas and I'd sports and my feet are a. 35.5 which means I'm not adult women, I'm not even teenage girl! I'm Velcro woman!!!!
My feet are shrinking!
I can't find cool, baby sneakers for me :( sob, sob, sob....

Nice lunch at the selfridges pop up restaurant though.

Karbea · 05/06/2015 17:31

They have those nude flats in the kids section in selfridges. Gorgeous.

justasecond · 05/06/2015 19:33

Hope it went well One?
I have had my first child free day in what seems like years. Ds has started afternoons at nursery and I have moved cleaner to Thursdays so from now on can have Fridays all to myself and not spend them cleaning. I am feeling overwhelmed with the possibilities atm! Went to shops for a bit, nothing took my fancy at all. I only bought delicates wash bags from Lakeland.

Love those shoes Bernice I don't do heels either as I hardly ever go out anywhere Sad
Gorgeous shoe links Linus and your new sandals are lovely.
That top looks nice Lib shame there is no picture of it on the model. Will try it when next near a Cos. What will you wear it with? I am always on the lookout for longer tops.

Drywhiteplease · 05/06/2015 19:47

Ok, I'm trialling my new contact lenses , eyes have not adjusted/prescription not right so I can't see to type and MU IPads is being weird again.........prepare yourselves for total nonsense

libertyisYoda love the tip
linus you sat on your hands for 7mins before lookingGrin my sort of behaviour. Blue suede GRs are stunning.
Bernice I wear flats all day, by night I make up for it with heels.

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 05/06/2015 20:29

Karbea oh no! I've got a pair of kids' Nikes (in a 5.5!) and they aren't velcroey. I got them at Nike towers Confused so not sure why they didn't have anything to fit you.

One how did it go?

Bernice Those Finery shoes are really nice. I wish I suited that minimalist aesthetic as I always think everything on their site looks lovely quality.

Linus glad the heels are keepers!

Ok so Topshop order arrived:
Maxi dress - lovely, as expected for £18. Not too long, just above ankle.
Shoes - such nice quality, I love them! They are a bit tight on the toes, only a tiny bit, so I might do the hairdryer trick.
Jacket - slightly odd sizing, it fitted on the shoulders but was quite big on the body. Doing the drawstring helped but I'm not sure about the length either. It's a shame as it's exactly what I wanted and I know I'll wear it loads. I may have a quick browse for a shorter one before I decide.

libertychick · 05/06/2015 20:36

I will wear it with skinnies/straight jeans justa possibly with slim trousers. It's lovely, back is slightly longer and it drapes nicely.

I getting Blush at the Yoda comments. As I said need to practice what I preach!

one how did the performance go?

Karbea · 05/06/2015 20:39

I think I'm going to order online. Which website is best for kids shoes? There were lots of very spoilt children pushing in Nike towers shoes everywhere, the staff were running around after the kids... I gave up, couldn't see anything, but there might have been.

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 05/06/2015 20:57

They've got some size 3s on asos. Or what about Next, Very, or department stores?

OP posts:
Karbea · 05/06/2015 21:06

I know blair I just looked on asos, god knows why the west end was so useless!

Karbea · 05/06/2015 21:07

I think it's 2.5s that I need.

OneLittleLady · 05/06/2015 21:36

hello all, finally.

it went well. very well so i was told. i had lots of lovely, positive feedback saying how good mine was and how interesting, different and intense it was. not bad for a couple of wii motes eh?

I am thoroughly exhausted though so just got into pjs and going to drink tea and just try to decompress a bit

libertychick · 05/06/2015 21:48

Well done one Smile
