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 thought the brochure was fab. Lovely stuff this season but so £££

FedupNagging · 28/09/2015 20:08

The brochure dropped through my door today too - I absolutely love just about everything in it but yes its expensive and designed for tall leggy people.

FedupNagging · 28/09/2015 20:17

I love this dress

Like This jumpsuit but not the colour.

Love this

OneNightTimeMenaceStrikesBack · 28/09/2015 20:28

i definitely do Dry i know my style definitely sin't to everyone's tastes but to be so rude about it is just, well, rude! I would never be so rude as to comment in the same way about their clothes, shoes, bags or hair styles etc. I don't mind if someone is being honest and saying something really , genuinely doesn't suit me or say, the colour looks bad on me but to completely assassinate someones style like that is very crushing

KittyHello · 28/09/2015 20:39

I love that JCrew jumpsuit too Fedup

Great links Dry I'm quite partial to a bit of me&Em, they do nice tops for work.

In my quest for more accessories have ordered this skinny belt in burgundy leopard pony I could have done with this with my all black ensemble on Saturday night.

shopafrolic · 28/09/2015 21:38

Wondered what the hell burgundy leopard pony was!

VivaVegas · 28/09/2015 21:45

Lovely links!
I received the Me&Em brochure today and love this red dress.
This could look a bit wrong! droopy boob dress!.

Drywhitethanks · 28/09/2015 22:02

Really don't like that red dress Viva

Gosh, thought you'd all gone a bit bonkers talking about WIT and all the Cape love last night, have just seen her in her Cape and I have to say it's a fantastic outfit. Love the striped black and white top, skinny jeans and heels (all black and white, all easy to copy)......fab.

Drywhitethanks · 28/09/2015 22:03

I meant the droopy bomb one Viva!

MarshaBrady · 28/09/2015 22:52

I'm in a luxe hotel in Madrid and have had three glasses of wine. Or was it four? I need to go to bed it's late here but I'm not tired.

LinusLovesBretons · 29/09/2015 05:38

Morning!

Sounds like you're enjoying yourself marsha! Wink

That droopy boob dress is a bit unfortunate looking. Why didn't anyone notice before putting it into production.

Yesterday I found out that for the last 4 months I've been paying DH's credit card bill as well as mine! Shock

I wanted to make a withdrawal at the atm only to see I had no money left and when I called the cc company after seeing their huge debited amount (well when DH spoke to them as they wouldn't tell me what's happening as I'm only an add-on cardholder) it appeared that ever since DH started using that card, I have been paying for it!

Shocking book keeping on my part but DH reimbursed me immediately. Blush

He never used that card before as he has several so it never was an issue. Hmm

shopafrolic · 29/09/2015 07:15

Blimey Linus! My DH is so tight on our funds that he noticed last night he'd overpayed me by £20 last month! He almost asked for it back until I pulled this face Hmm
Some gorgeous pics for a Tuesday morning Milan FW

KittyHello · 29/09/2015 09:09

Oh dear that 2nd dress Viva not a good look is it?

Marsha that doesn't sound much like work Grin I love Madrid, much prefer it to Barcelona.

Was just having a Browse on the Jaeger site and saw this and thought of Dry

I'm at home with the sniffles, so looking to see how many more belts I can buy, plus a sparkly jacket.

VivaVegas · 29/09/2015 09:16

Morning!

Very quick as at work but I know some of you were wanting this. The 25% Whistles discount at Grazia has just come out.

AmberNectarine · 29/09/2015 10:48

Already used the whistles discount for the coat I've been coveting :)

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 29/09/2015 11:55

High fives Amber - I bought this leather jacket.

Hi everyone. I've been lurking for a few days, have been a bit stressed while I got over a bad cold and worrying about work. Now doing a mindfulness course and getting back into my running (I realised I like it because it clears my head) :)

I've missed loads but shop I hope you're recovering better now and are past the worst few days. At least the weather has been lovely for when you get out and about.

Mara I hope your course is going well and One hope you're enjoying being back at uni and are well.

The remainder of my AW wishlist is a camel wrap coat, Xmas party LBD, couple of going out tops, black blazer and black skinny trousers. And no doubt a few more random bits.

Waves to everyone!

AmberNectarine · 29/09/2015 12:32

I love my whistles leather jacket Blair, buttery soft. Did you size down? Mine is a 6 and still a shade roomy.

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 29/09/2015 13:51

I didn't Amber, but I have bought one from them before in a 10 (and sent it back because I'd just had my colours done, ugh!) and it was ok. I just hope the arms are nice and slim on me, fingers crossed.

Larastheme · 29/09/2015 17:21

I'm really Angry, with JL, I placed an order and it was supposed to be delivered to a friend who is coming over here tonight, delivery was supposed to be on Monday! Still no show!! , called them and they said delivery will be out tomorrow, and delivery to the address will be on Friday!! i paid for next day!!,what's the use in paying for next day if it will take as long as a free one!, Angry Angry,

The JL drama is the least of what I'm going through lately,

And breeeath

bernice, those are really nice,try them, I remember that there was a limited edition launch of addidas stans at le bon marche,when I was getting the marant, the small shoes department was swamped with edgy mummies, and their daughters trying them on,

ujjayi ladylike and grown up styles is something I could never master, ,WASPS, Hitchcock leading ladies, The way betty draper dresses, it all looks so flawless and beautiful, but I could never do that, and yes marant-esque with a bit of boho and a bit of edge sums up my style too,

linus, I just love your dreams Grin,

mara, I look terrible with perfect hair, mine has to be a bit messed up,and Since i cut it really short a couple of weeks ago, I'm sporting this big early 90s cindy Crawford-esque hair,

marsha sounds fun!

Wore my chloe fringed jacket for the first time today, really love it, have a white chloe silk shirt under,and skinny cropped trousers, the shirt is about 5 years old,maybe older, lost count, but very identical to the ones they currently have, so glad I didn't give it way when we moved,

I tried the chloe fringed over the knee boots, love it but I need to be certain about it,

LinusLovesBretons · 29/09/2015 18:20

lara I don't order from JL anymore after a few bad experiences. They don't deliver here so I had my orders sent to DMIL and twice the item wasn't delivered.

They did send a replacement after I complained by e-mail but one was a Christmas present that didn't arrive on time and the other was like yours something that needed to be flown to us afterwards.

And then after we got the replacement, we got a second replacement a while later. Once even months later!!! Mad!

libertydoddle · 29/09/2015 19:47

I had a bit of a crap day today so opted for retail therapy Smile

Russell & Bromley heeled chelsea boots. I have debated these for a few weeks and tried on loads of cheaper ones but these are really comfy and look good with dresses and jeans so decided as they were the same price as the sensibly returned Marni dress I should get them.

Forest green Cos dress. I dithered a bit over this as it's poly but I didn't feel hot in it in the changing room, possibly because it's a loose fit so decided to go for it.
