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

Yeah I think you may be right karbea
and I think once I've been drinking all day on cocktails in the sun I may not even be able to walk in heels, come the evening! Grin

Maz stick with flats. Nice dress.

QueenC the weather is bonkers. Very nice when the sun is out but chilly when the clouds pass. I thought it was going to be 30.

Linus I love those flats.

Shop Bernice going in to Aveda today so might swing by a few shops for flats, including Lanvin again. The bag / shoe issue is putting me off.

Blair really like those too. I'm not keen on rl shopping but might swing by there too.

Interesting chat about work. My work is going ok but I found out I sold work in Germany and now I'm itching to get back to it. Will have to wait for a bit.

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 06/06/2015 13:57

That's great news Marsha, congrats!

Karbea you do have tiny feet, hope the NAP pairs are a success.

QueenC shame none of it was right. I like the Coast dress best, really lovely.

Wore the TS jacket out today (for breakfast) and I really love it. I feel fashionable in it, which is something I don't often, esp in casual clothes.

Oh oh! And thanks to a very well stocked off licence down the road from my house, I've finally managed to get my hands on some Passoa! I'm going round a friend's tonight for a night in with girlfriends, so that is definitely going to get mixed with prosecco. Wanted to do porn star martinis, but it's a bit late to get all the ingredients. Next time!

Busy day. In city earlier with DH and DD then sorted out DD room when I got home. Relaxing now with a cup of mint tea.

Shame about that dress QueenC it is lovely.

Glad the jacket works for you Blair. I may try it. I never feel fashionable either!

karbea I love the first kakhi pair and the coral ones. I'm debating getting some kakhi superga for weekends.

Marsha well done! Hang in there. You will get back to it.

I have decided that sales buys have to be work stuff. While I have gaps in my casual wardrobe I am genuinely short of work clothes. I gave managed as I have worked from home quite a bit since I got my colours dine but I'll be spending more time at meetings over next few months.

libertychick · 06/06/2015 16:48

So many typos!

Drywhiteplease · 06/06/2015 17:24

Bloody weather. Full sunshine but very windy which makes it chilly. BBQ tonight, total fashion quandary Confused thinking slim trousers, block heels (grass) and peplum jacket ......night mare.

Also....reordered All of the Asos shoes with 20% discount but one pair is too big, if I exchange do you think I still get the discount? I'm very Confused hate multiple returns, get stressed when sorting visa, bedroom looks like Asos warehouse, DH had a laught with the delivery man when 3 Asos bags arrived !!!!! Is it worth it for £12? Hmm

libertychick · 06/06/2015 17:29

Not worth it for £12 dry IMO but I have a low tolerance level for hassle.

Drywhiteplease · 06/06/2015 17:50

Right.......think I might wear Amber's leather skinnies, black slouch sweater vest red strappy sandals not stilletoes and take Shop's animal print scarf edged with red for later on. Feel wintry, wish I were wafting in a white maxi.

Drywhiteplease · 06/06/2015 17:57

Thanks Yoda I don't have spread sheets to balance returns, it's all a bit chaotic .

MNV please come over and dress me........I'm rubbish at Smart/casual, can do dress and heels, can do jeans and flats, but in between is hard but after a Wine I won't care

MyVegasBaby · 06/06/2015 18:43

Nice dress Maz. Outfits sounds good Dry but I know what you mean about the weather, I'd like to be in shorts and sandals sat outside but instead inside with a sweater on!
If anyone is still looking for a jumpsuit, this looks perfect jumpsuit Wink

libertychick · 06/06/2015 19:09

Grin myvegas

Dry leathers with slouchy sweater sounds perfect. and as you know I am always right

Karbea · 06/06/2015 20:11

Tonight I'm wearing boden nude/ peach camisole, sparkly peach jacket french connection, blue frame jeans, nude peep toe loubis, faux snake peach/nude clutch mango.

Karbea · 06/06/2015 20:11

And rose gold Burberry sunnies.

BerniceBobsHerHair · 06/06/2015 21:21

Oooh, I missed the 20% off at asos - what is the code?

Karbea I love trainers. Of your selection I think I like the Nike Juvenate and the Nike zenji best. Office do have superstars but not sure if they have your size.

Maz I like the dress, agree strappy sandals fine for later on too.

Dry probably too late but what about white jeans instead of leather skinnies - might feel more summery but still warm? Or your topshop chamray shirt with leather skinnies and gazelles?

I love these shoes QueenC linked for me in the fantasy shop. Have been looking for something similar but not much luck.

MandS good colour but I have a lot of pointy flats and I think these look quite worky.

again good colour but not keen on espadrill sole.

Or go for the white sole but in black - these, these or these...

Thoughts?

libertychick · 06/06/2015 23:13

Seven boot lane ones are my favourites Bernice. Shame they don't have them in the blue.

Karbea · 07/06/2015 00:02

Let me know the 20% code and I'll order more trainers!!!!!

QueenCardigan · 07/06/2015 00:43

Hello. Just a little bit a lot tipsy Grin. Enjoying a cup of tea before bed. Great but exhausting day for dd party and then been dancing the night away at a party. In the end I wore navy and uniqlo blue silk vest. It was fine as nit as dressed up as I thought it would be.

Might start fantasy shopping whilst I drink my tea...

QueenCardigan · 07/06/2015 00:45
