Ahhhhh, the season of mists and mellow fruitfulness...if for you that means the joy of cosy jumpers, retrieving your favourite coats and jackets from the back of the wardrobe and an excuse to buy new boots then this is the place for you Smile. Come chat about clothes, make up and accessories, budgets from Primark to Prada. Lurkers, newbies and old hands all welcome.

I can't do boho but would love to. love all the Instagram pics of Eivissa at the moment. This kind of vibe

AmberNectarine · 27/09/2015 21:22

All the looks Chloe puts down the runway. Beautiful, feminine, intricate - AWFUL for me.

shopafrolic · 27/09/2015 21:23

Shop nooo did I say that?! Grin

I'm not keen on her shoes, they make her feet look too long.

shopafrolic · 27/09/2015 21:25

We were VERY VARY VARY drunk Grin

KittyHello · 27/09/2015 21:28

Linus I reckon VB took a sneak peak at MNV before deciding her outfit Wink

Not a VB fan but I really liked her sparkly jacket she wore the night she weed herself other night. Loved the Casdei heels too. Anyone know where I could get a similar jacket? Tried to put a picture but crappy IPad keeps losing my post.

Looks/things I can't wear biker jackets. I think they look great on others but are not me. Skirts and ankle boots worn together is another look I like but looks wrong on me. I think in too short. Sad

Shop glad you're perking up.

MarshaBrady · 27/09/2015 21:28

Shop Never! Shock

Kitty me too on bikers. And anything too tough.

MarshaBrady · 27/09/2015 21:30

Jackets that is

shopafrolic · 27/09/2015 21:32

I'm not a VB fan either normally. Missed the wee incident clearly so I'm not sure which jacket you mean Kitty
I've realised something a little concerning - my mood is directly linked to how interested I am in clothes and make up. The more attention I pay to them, the better mood I seem I be in.
When I was a teen I remember my mum telling me off saying my interest in clothes and make up was shallow and I should stop going on about it. If she hadn't said that I wonder if I'd have ended up in industry? Would have loved to work for a big beauty brand.
Rambling tonight and no alcohol consumed!

FedupNagging · 27/09/2015 21:32

I love the boho with artfully mussed hair look but definitely can't pull it off - I look like I've crawled out of bed and raided the dressing up box!

VB looks great - I love that look. Looking forward to the ST article on the new UN look!

Queen I love the grey coatigan but I think I need a collar. Lib am trying to stay from black so grey or navy would be good.

KittyHello · 27/09/2015 21:33

page down for sequinned jacket

shopafrolic · 27/09/2015 21:34

I know Marsha - you + me + alcohol = good times and monkey bars

shopafrolic · 27/09/2015 21:36

Oh they are fab shoes!

VivaVegas · 27/09/2015 21:36

Ladies, need some advise. Tried on the MiH jeans again and really love them, very flattering on the rear!
BUT as they are ridiculously long, will getting them taken up spoil them, has anyone had jeans taken up and they still look good? There is an alterations place just down the road from my office that I guess I could take them to.
Also decided the M &S navy Chelsea boots are keepers, look good with jeans and lots of tops I have so a good addition to the wardrobe.
Love that VB look, in theory I have (cheaper versions) of what she is wearing, wonder if I could pull it off for work this week, will try!

LinusLovesBretons · 27/09/2015 21:39

Yes, I also like that jacket kittyhello.

And biker jackets look stunning on others but I haven't even tried one on as it would look rubbish on me.

Same with denim jackets unfortunately.

shop I love stacking bracelets. Before going to bed I put some ready to wear tomorrow as I haven't done so in a while.

shopafrolic · 27/09/2015 21:41

I might buy Marsha a shit load of Chlobo for her next significant birthday Grin

KittyHello · 27/09/2015 21:41

Vivawhen I took my ridiculously long flares to be shortened they kept the original hem and they look exactly the same as when I bought them. Honestly, you'd never known they'd be shortened. Just need to wear them now

LinusLovesBretons · 27/09/2015 21:41

I had my skinny Marrakesh shortened and they look fine.

Can't wait to get my Asos MiH deliveries!

MarshaBrady · 27/09/2015 21:42

Viva I haven't, but am interested to see the MiH jeans when they turn up. Surely it would be ok to shorten?

II Shock II

MarshaBrady · 27/09/2015 21:43

Arf what's Chlobo? Will have a look.

Oh that pic was for you!

FedupNagging · 27/09/2015 21:44

Midi skirts are a no no too, as are biker boots - am too short.

Viva if the jeans are straight with no shape then it will be fine. It's when garments have shape to them that the effect is lost when they are shortened - which is why it took me so long to find flares.

I read about the VB incident on mn but don't believe she had an accident, more like a spilled drink. She did look pissed though!

MarshaBrady · 27/09/2015 21:45

Do you think Fedup? I'm afraid I thought the non-spilled drink version.
