I remember you wearing it shop!!!

Hope you feel OK QueenC. Can you take anything for the cramps?

Big wave out to dry who I imagine is already on her train.

Off to console myself at missing it by having my morning coffee in the hot tub! The place is lovely, DH did well Smile

MarshaBrady · 18/07/2015 08:14

Sounds lovely Lib

No idea what to wear yet!

Stokey · 18/07/2015 08:17

Have you got an alternative Shop? There's a fresh breeze at the moment but town is always warmer.

Hope you're feeling better QueenC.

Coffee in the hot tub sounds lush Liberty, enjoy!

Just spoke to DB who is talking about going to the urban beach this morning. Not sure my silk midi can cope with sand! I may have to take rethink too.

shopafrolic · 18/07/2015 08:23

Too late. It's on and I'm on the train. Committed to it now.
Marsha my partner in crime! Can't wait to catch up [monkey emoticon]

Have a lovely meet ladies.
If your outfits get too hot, you could always go shopping Grin

bettykt · 18/07/2015 08:43

Have a lovely day ladies and sweaty or not you will have a great time.

Lib you're weekend sounds fabulous. I'm flying solo here with dc, off to tennis we go.

Drywhiteplease · 18/07/2015 08:49

I'm on train with coffee and paper , excited.
Stuck wirh original outfit:
Black sleeveless, round neck, just below knee length, very fitted, Zara dress.
Gold gigis, gold jewellery .
Mulberry tan bag.
Will have to breather in all day and sit next to a fan
Feel elegant until I start sweating amongst a carriage full of middle aged because I'm still sooooooo young Wink women in florals and bright shrugs .

Drywhiteplease · 18/07/2015 08:51

disclaimer obviously on MNV ladies florals and brigh shrugs are very chic Smile

QueenCardigan · 18/07/2015 08:55

I'm freezing at the station. Short linen dress on. Would have worn the lace but would have been paranoid about bloated tum all day. This dress hides it.
Will be reading grazia on the train and may have a cheeky nap!

MarshaBrady · 18/07/2015 09:21

Haha you bet Shop prosecco and monkey bars today, still cracks me up.

You all sound gorgeous. I will be in trouble in a mo as I realuse lie I do at every MU that I don't own a day dress. Really need to sort that out.

shopafrolic · 18/07/2015 09:27

Am sat in Earl's Court coffee shop watching the world go by. This is a much needed DS free day - I plan on making the most of it. Wish I didn't have to walk so far otherwise would be wearing heels. Have Sam Edelman black sandals on just for QueenC

Oh cool shop I lve those. masha is going to be pretty freaked out at the sight of all our feet Grin. -marsha my dress is v casual. Wouldn't normally wear something so casual for a day in London but just needed comfort today. How about the bright Orange dress?

MarshaBrady · 18/07/2015 09:43

Haha feet no problem, as long as I don't wear sandals I'm ok

I'm not sure I have a bright orange dress, mind has gone blank. I just want to avoid usual skinnies as wear them all the time.

AmberNectarine · 18/07/2015 09:50

I'm hiding my feet as I have several black toenails and some huge open blisters. Not a great look at all

maradesbois · 18/07/2015 10:37

Morning!

Out for some pre mu sustenance in new favourite breakfast place. A lovely day so far so opted for dress and white legs. Hear hear Shop re much needed ds free day!

Yum Mara

It may have to be the outfit I wore to mu circa 2013/14 - the blue shoe max mara floral skirt one.

Forgive me voguers!

Stokey · 18/07/2015 11:30

Sounds good Marsha - I haven't seen it! Did QueenC mean the one you wore for your work do?

We swapped urban beach for Greenwich so I've stuck with black midi dress, and matching Shop with black Sam Edelman sandals. Also have the orange Le planetes bag, look forward to seeing you all in the flesh later.

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 18/07/2015 11:56

Lovely voguettes - I'm having a nightmare of a day! Was meant to be up v early to take my car to the garage, an hours drive away, so I deliberately didn't overdo it last night. But I've woken up feeling rubbish and have been sick several times :( don't know if I have a bug or what? But I've only just managed to get dressed and I still have to take the car as it's booked in for the entire week. :( :( :( Once I've done that and got the train back home, I'm going to see how I feel. I can't seem to keep any food down and DH has also gone out for the day. So I may be very late or not there at all. So gutted and really sorry.

MarshaBrady · 18/07/2015 12:00

Oh Blair it would be lovely to see you but you do sound ill Sad Sad

Stokey will be fab to see you again!

I've left home at the wrong time, only just enough time to look in Liberty or I can't fit it in and will be early. Might chance it, hopefully this bus doesn't get stuck in traffic.

MarshaBrady · 18/07/2015 12:24

Oh yes floral neon orange - forgot that one!

BrandyAlexander · 18/07/2015 12:40

Oh dear Blair you poor poor thing.Sad hope you get better soon. Thanks

This might be the first MU in about 2 years that I will be there from the start!Shock the timing of dds class changed so the dcs no longer have classes starting at same time! And dh was keen for me to have a mostly child free daySmile

AmberNectarine · 18/07/2015 12:47

I am also on my way - may have to break ranks to find an elsa wig if mine isn't delivered today. Sigh!

AmberNectarine · 18/07/2015 12:49

And yes, hope you feel better Blair, you poor thing, sounds grim!

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 18/07/2015 17:34

Hope you're all having fun - well I've seen a pic and I know you are Grin

I got home and slept for a bit and had berocca, Coke and toast. Just feeling really tired now.

Looking forward to round ups in a few hours!

LinusDKD · 18/07/2015 19:30

Evening!

Got to our holiday destination and am just finishing off a bottle of pink bubbles in honour of MNV or to get over a road trip with two small children

Any updates yet or is everyone too busy in LDN admiring each other's outfits? Grin
