Hello, long time no post. Laptop was playing up along with iPad so went on a technology sulk and abandoned both for a week. Both are now working so am back. Was getting really cross when I couldn't open links and laptop/Ipad were crashing, grrr so stayed away.
Am meting a friend in town later today so will pop into JCrew, B Republic, Uniqlo and Selfridges. Then out for dinner later.
QueenC I'd quite like burgundy shoes, well boots to be exact, funnily enough I was think about a pair of burgundy shoes I wore to school many years ago, don't let that put you off, they were de rigour at the time
not sure about having a matching bag, would opt for navy or tan perhaps, depending on the rest of your outfit.
Fedup oh my eyes, those "shoes" haven't really opened up many links apart from the Burberry cashmere trench, oh wow, I love it, love it, love it.
After having said that I couldn't wear trainers I'm going to try these on today to see if they suit me. What style jeans do I wear with them? I can imagine skinnies not looking too great with them 
black trainers
