Sounds like you've had some good r n r MyVegas

Also popped some leopard Gigis in the basket too. Well it would have been rude not to Grin.

MyVegasBaby · 07/08/2015 14:10

Betty I got the leopard Gigis from the Next sale just before my holiday and love them.

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 07/08/2015 14:19

Good shopping betty covering all bases there Grin you've reminded me I need to get my pistols reheeled.

Dry enjoy the glamping, always wanted to try it.

Marsha how annoying re the flight but exciting to have an earlier start than planned!

We are having a weekend away in Wales, up v early tomorrow and then spending one night in Swansea and one in Cardiff. My car is getting a new roof Grin it currently has a hole in it so it badly needs it! I'm trying to plan outfits as I have dinners already booked, and the second hotel has a spa.

libertychick · 07/08/2015 16:55

Good score Betty Pistols and Gigis!!! Alas the Gigis were gone in my size Sad.

Thanks for the tip off Shop I ordered:

Yellow Bellerose dress
Femme navy silk skirt
Cream BMB silk t-shirt

Fingers crossed they are all ok as delivery is expensive and returns are not free Hmm. I was tempted by several other items too. Would have loved to try this cardigan but only left in XS. As you all know I don't do heels but these Lucy Choi bronze babies really appeal to me but again gone in my size damn size 39 feet I also put dress in and out of the bag several times - would have risked it if there was free returns but generally anything that is a straight up and down cut doesn't suit me.

bettykt · 07/08/2015 17:28

Looks as if you grabbed yourself some great Anna bargains too Lib I could only open the cream BMB silk tee, it's lovely.

Blair I need to get my grey ones re-heeled too, wore them to death during the winter. Have a great weekend in Wales.

shopafrolic · 07/08/2015 18:19

I didn't buy anything from Anna so am glad you guys snapped things up. Have had a rubbish few days mood wise. Am off out with the girls tonight. Wearing black Paige skinnies, red suede Jigsaw heels, grey v neck J Crew tee (for a change) and red suede Jigsaw envelope clutch. Hoping it's classic enough to pass as an not feeing too confident.
Marsha enjoy your break my fabulous friend

Sounds fab shop. I am sure you look amazing as always.

LinusDKD · 07/08/2015 19:07

Was very tempted by the blue Gigis until I reminded myself I already have them in three colours! Grin

Have a great evening shop! You look gorgeous!

Safe trip blair and marsha!

LinusDKD · 07/08/2015 19:15

Just ordered this dress

Very basic but I love Splendid dresses and I'll probably wear this with a belt.

bettykt · 07/08/2015 19:54

Shop your outfit sounds great. Hope your evening with your friends perks you up Flowers

Great dress Linus'

AmberNectarine · 07/08/2015 20:05

Off out myself. Running hideously late due to outfit flailing. Too much choice but a serious jacket deficit!

End up in black all saints blazer, black Topshop vest, indigo gap resolution skinnies, nude whistles mules, Tiffany cuff and silver Alexander Wang Rockie. Bit boring but DH got the horn so passes muster Grin.

libertychick · 07/08/2015 20:32

Reliable outfit checker amber Grin

LinusDKD · 07/08/2015 20:44

Have fun amber Wink

Just watching Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire and I'm reminded how handsome Robert Patinson is.

Nowadays he looks like he needs a good bath yes, I know I am an old fuddy duddy but in that film he just looks gorgeous.

shopafrolic · 08/08/2015 00:29

I haven't heard the phrase "got the horn since I was called by a dirty old perv in the 80s"! Made me LOL Grin
Lovely night with my NCT girls who have sorted my head out with the help of a lot of prosecco. And thanks to you lovely Voguettes for all the outfit love and messages. MWAH

Am in a club. On about my fifteenth Daquiri. This won't end well.

Topazandpearl · 08/08/2015 07:37

Oh dear Amber hope you are sleeping it off and won't be hungover, at least you don't have to host a children's party today!

Blair,Marsha,Dry have great holidays.

Good that your friends and prosecco lifted the mood shop. Sometimes we need others to take us out of ourselves.

Thank you Blair for the reminder about Me&em. I have ordered the navy cowl neck dress. I already have their previous blue version, but at that price. I couldn't resist! That will bring my total of Me&em dresses to five Blush but I find them so easy for work.

The sun is shining here so hopefully it will be a lovely day. Enjoy it everyone.

libertychick · 08/08/2015 08:13

5 of them topaz!! I wish they suited me but cowl necks don't work on me really.

Brew for amber and shop.

libertychick · 08/08/2015 08:16

That Splendid dress looks perfect for you Linus.

MyVegasBaby · 08/08/2015 10:08

Topaz your post reminded me about the Me&Em dress too so I have ordered the black hoping it will be good for me for work.
I also ordered this in both the blue and black as I it looks like it could be a good AW staple kimono tee.
Last day of sun and relaxation today, although looks like the weather in the UK has picked up. Dreading going back to work on Monday but have a few more odd days off and then the bank holiday to spend time with the DC at home which will be nice.
Enjoy your weekends everyone.

AmberNectarine · 08/08/2015 10:31

I seem to have gotten away with it...

Rejoice.

LinusDKD · 08/08/2015 12:13

That's the benefit of being young amber, you get less hungover and recuperate quicker.

I have that navy cowl neck dress topaz with long sleeves and I also had several Me&Em dresses but I haven't worn them in ages.

One I gave to dry and another to one and the rest just sits in my wardrobe. Blush

I dreamt I was Lady Gaga's maid of honour last night. Such a weird dream but I did get quite a few costume changes and the dresses (hers and mine) were surprisingly tasteful.

So I have got a Saturday MNV Question: of which celebrity wedding would you have liked/would you like to be part of the bridal party?

A recent one for me would have to be the wedding of one of the Monaco princes to his Italian aristocratic fiancée (I can't remember their names)

The pictures looked stunning and the guests were an interesting mix of blue blood and fashion/art types

AmberNectarine · 08/08/2015 12:37

I would have liked to attend Alan Rickman's wedding so I could have shouted 'it should have been me!'

HappyGirlNow · 08/08/2015 12:54

Oh I love Alan Rickman too Grin

LinusDKD · 08/08/2015 13:00

Ooh I love his voice! And Jeremy Irons' too.

That's one of the reasons I could never fancy David Beckham, he just has an awful voice and too many tattoos

HappyGirlNow · 08/08/2015 14:13

Oh yes Jeremy Irons too.. Could watch The Lion King over and over... Uncle Scar crush Blush

But my all time favourite... Sam Elliot... Maaaaaaaaannnnn mmmmm Grin

Yes it must be a lot to do with the voices linus .. Those are my top 3 crushes...
