Continuing on from here.

Summer and holidays are coming, and the Voguettes will be more than ready!

All welcome and the more links the better but please don't mention House of Colour. Wink

Just lost a really long post with loads of links, grr Angry

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 05/06/2015 22:29

Ah well done One, that's great!

MyVegas how annoying.

Decided to keep the Topshop utility jacket, I tried it on again and liked it better which doesn't usually happen. Also when I searched them on pinterest, they were usually a bit oversized in outfit pics. Yay!

Hope everyone's having a nice Friday night :) lazy here as out tomorrow.

Have been AWOL since fab wedding last weekend, too much going on in all aspects of life!
Have had a quick skim read to catch up a bit.
Have destressed by a bit of online shopping tonight, mostly Summer holiday (or before/after if it warms up!).
Ordered a couple of dresses poly but sleeves and like the pattern/style
nice stripy dress
Ordered a few different washes of Gap Sexy Boyfriend denim shorts to try along with navy top and black shorts as an option for evening with a nice top.
Love the red top Liberty what's the sizing like?

libertychick · 05/06/2015 23:12

Nice dresses myvegas

Top is true to size IMO. I am 12 on top and the top is size 38 (US 8).

MyVegasBaby · 06/06/2015 08:28

Morning all!
Thanks Liberty I have a gap in my wardrobe for a red top, shame we don't have a Cos anywhere near me as their stuff always looks s bit different.
The sun is shining today which is s bonus, put with DC to park, lunch etc so will be in jeans, T and my lovely green Gazelles!

  1. juvenate
Karbea · 06/06/2015 09:23
  1. white internationalist.
Karbea · 06/06/2015 09:24
  1. roshe
Karbea · 06/06/2015 09:25
  1. khaki internationalist.
Karbea · 06/06/2015 09:26
  1. coral free.
Karbea · 06/06/2015 09:35

I'd really like a pair of these but can't find any or anything similar, gold star to anyone who can.

I think ideally I'd like two pairs of trainers...

MyVegasBaby · 06/06/2015 09:37

Karbea I really like the khaki ones, they're a bit different.

Karbea · 06/06/2015 09:51

these are quite nice too, on the khaki theme.

Karbea · 06/06/2015 10:03

I've ordered the khaki nikes and the coral ones as they were both from netaporter. I'll order some of the others if anyone thinks it's worth it, and just send some back if needs be. The khaki ones are currently only in a 5.5(us) so may be too big anyway... #amazingshrinkingfeet.

QueenCardigan · 06/06/2015 11:47

Those two are my faves karbea especially the khaki.
What's going on with this weather?? One minute it's hot and sunny and then grey and rain. Dd birthday today so getting in party mode and then out tonight.

My orders returned. I'll link it all but have to do it one at a time....

QueenCardigan · 06/06/2015 11:52

Shoukd have said my orders have arrived but most, if not all, will be returned

culottes really liked these but they don't sit on my waist properly despite trying 3 different sizes!

QueenCardigan · 06/06/2015 11:56

trousers. Jury is still out on these. Really like them and will try again later. Pmt bloating at the moment so difficult to tell how they fit.

QueenCardigan · 06/06/2015 12:00

jumpsuit. Love this as its navy but doesn't fit sadly. The bit between my belly button and crotch is too long so the jumpsuit is too stretched.

QueenCardigan · 06/06/2015 12:02

skirt. In the interests of trying something different I ordered this. It's really lovely but sadly not on me. Again it just doesn't sit right.

QueenCardigan · 06/06/2015 12:04

[[http://www.phase-eight.com/fcp/product/phase-eight/sale-dresses/fabia-embroidered-fit-and-flare-dress/202433408 dress]. I put this in my basket at the last minute. Really loved it but felt too dressed up in it. If I had a wedding or anything it would be lovely.

QueenCardigan · 06/06/2015 12:06

try again

mazj4cks · 06/06/2015 12:23

Hi ladies, sorry I've been quite absent! I have been checking in all things fashion and life related!!

I'm having a bit of a nightmare...we have one of dh work friends and his wife coming over today and we're going to head to Cambridge for food, drinks etc. I'm wearing a short sleeved Breton stripe midi dress but don't know wether to wear flats (prob leopard pumps) and a clutch bag or bring a bigger bag to put heels in for in case we stay in Cambs late, then I can feel a bit more dressy?! Confused

mazj4cks · 06/06/2015 12:24

Because I'm worried if I take a bigger bag will I look too work like? IYSWIM?! Argh!

Karbea · 06/06/2015 12:35

I stick with flats, it's summer and I think everyone's a bit more casual.

I'm wearing a f&f off white vest, orange and white flared Boden linen skirt, gold havianias. Think I need a cardi or jacket when we go for lunch with I laws though.

mazj4cks · 06/06/2015 12:38

It's this dress it was a mad dash run to local town this morning to by something!! And I'm pleasantly surprised, so comfy and looks great on as its a textured fabric so hides a lot! Grin
