linus those are lush. I adore chie mihra shoes.

Ujjayi · 07/10/2015 22:30

Stokey have you looked at Cocoa Cashmere

shopafrolic · 08/10/2015 07:05

Morning all
25% off at Adidas.com with code FRIENDS

Looks like it includes customised shoes too Smile

shopafrolic · 08/10/2015 07:59

Lib Flowers The Uniqlo skirt is a keeper
Stokey my coatigan I'm guessing not chunky enough for you......

LinusLovesBretons · 08/10/2015 08:01

Morning!

If I see those IM trousers I'll try them on lara but the model in the MyTheresa picture has a saggy bottom in them and that's a look that I'm trying to avoid. Wink

queenc I had never heard of that brand until I saw them on shoescribe. Maybe put them on your sales wishlist as they tend to have good sales.

My OOTD is so boring I won't even describe it but I think tomorrow I'll crack out the opaques and wear a skirt or dress. Only 5 degrees here this morning. Brrr!

QueenCardi · 08/10/2015 09:37

stokey saw this and thought of you

BerniceBobsHerHairAgain · 08/10/2015 10:04

Love these stans

VivaVegas · 08/10/2015 11:52

Agh I thought I didn't need to buy anything for a while now but suddenly I 'need' stans and a coatigan!
Although I too have a November birthday so could always get them as a present!

FedupNagging · 08/10/2015 13:07

Stokey my Boden coatigan still hasn't arrived (the sized down replacement) so can't comment BUT, I have tried on many, many coatigans over the last few weeks and that was my favourite so I have high hopes for it. I got it with the discount and a voucher so spent less than £100.

Lots and lots of lovely links this week - love IM skirt you bought Lara.

You definitely need to find some time to go shopping Marsha with those purse friendly prices.

Great animal print stans too Bernice.

Having worn my AR wide-leg trousers to death this summer, I am intending on jumping on the bandwagon with Shop and Bernice* and ordering some for winter - whilst skinnies are great, I definitely need a change sometimes.

I have been wearing my flares with the Ash platform trainers this week and a variety of tops - my new favourite outfit I think especially as I have been getting a few compliments. Lib love that a stylish french lady complimented you.

FedupNagging · 08/10/2015 13:21

Anyone fancy these?

QueenCardi · 08/10/2015 13:32

Just popping in with a random question. What's anyone's thoughts on burgundy shoes? And what colour handbag would you use? ( I like to be a bit matchy matchy which is why I struggle with shoes)

Larastheme · 08/10/2015 14:36

queen, I have burgundy boots and I wear them with black bag,or taupe coloured bag,no problem,

fedup those are just grotesque, Shock

KittyHello · 08/10/2015 14:45

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 Wink 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 Confused

black trainers

Larastheme · 08/10/2015 15:01

No saggy bottom here linus, Grin, the fabric is not clingy, I almost reached for them again this morning ,but decided to give them a rest , wearing Acne white straight legs, with an old Gucci charcoal oversized sweater, and marant crisi boots,

Anyone is watching the affair? It has glowing reviews, but I lost interest after about 20 minutes, It was painful to watch after that, so wooden,and passive actually, does it get better?

I'm suffering with good tv shows, now that mad men is over,and I just finished watching house of cards ,I don't know what to do, nothing is as interesting,

shopafrolic · 08/10/2015 15:50

Lara try Scandal or The Good Wife

justasecond · 08/10/2015 16:20

lara I gave up on The Affair too, I don't think it gets much better. I can't see why it was so acclaimed. Defo second The Good Wife if you have not seen it already.
Bernice I really like those stans was looking at them last night but when I showed them to DH he said they were "too loud" I ordered these instead www.zalando.co.uk/adidas-originals-stan-smith-trainers-core-black-white-ad111s07p-q11.html
queenc I would love a pair of burgundy ankle boots not seen many about though. A black bag would look fine with them.

shopafrolic · 08/10/2015 16:33

Did you get them from adidas.com justa? You get 25% off today.....

shopafrolic · 08/10/2015 16:34

Scrap that - they have excluded those ones. How rude!

AmberNectarine · 08/10/2015 17:14

God I loved the affair. The themes were so subtle and the narrative device of their differing perspectives was excellent. If anything I thought it started great and then wobbled a bit. Can't wait for the second series. And Dominic West.

AmberNectarine · 08/10/2015 17:16

I have burgundy rockstuds and burgundy heels - wear them with black or navy bags. I think matching shoes and bags can be a bit 'day at the races'.

QueenCardi · 08/10/2015 18:04

Grin at day at the races. I know matchy is dated but there's just something in me that likes it....

justasecond · 08/10/2015 18:06

I got them from Zalando shop there was a £10 off code free delivery and cashback through top cashback so worked out quite well. I just hope they will fit as I am not sure re sizing.
I remembered I forgot to report back on the Uniqlo Lemaire navy polo neck
this one I wanted a looser fit so went for the L. I love the colour it is a proper dark almost black navy. I need to properly try on but think I will probably keep it, a navy cashmere jumper has been on my wishlist for ages.

Drywhitethanks · 08/10/2015 18:28

But I adore the Day at the races look especially when I'm at the races Grin

Actually though QueenC even I, matchy matchy woman that I am, wouldn't dor burgundy shoes and bag, tan or black for me if I had burgundy shies or bag that is

Larastheme · 08/10/2015 19:36

I do match sometimes queen, I have a celine burgundy bag and I sometimes match it with burgundy rockstuds or with lanvin burgundy boots, and it looks ok,

Will give the good wife a try , i remember dry and mara raving about it too,

justa beautiful jumper,

maradesbois · 08/10/2015 21:54

Evening,

Grin at day at the races!

Queen I wear burgundy and navy together a lot, think they work well.

Shop tks for Adidas code, will see if it works for the trainers I like.

justa really like your jumper too, love navy that's so dark it's almost black.

Lara I've not watched The Affair but just finished watching Dr Foster on bbc, also about an affair. Really enjoyed it and just a few episodes so not like investing in something seasons long.
