Fur or feathers, leather or lace, suede or velvet, come & tell us what you're wearing as the festive season comes our way. What's on your Christmas wishlist and what are you saving for the sales?

From designer to downtown, all are very welcome for chats about fashion, frolics and whatever else tickles your fancy.

Morning! Lovely to hear about everyones evenings and outfits. Marsha sorry to hear you hurt your neck.

I stayed in last night as over the last month i have been all over the place and taken 12 flights. Yesterday was supposed to be my last one of the year but not to be.

OneNightTimeMenaceStrikesBack · 05/12/2015 12:05

amber i've been considering wearing my black tulle skirt, possibly with a sequin vest top but i'm not certain as the only ones ive seen id be happy to pay the money for are in gold sequin and i don't really do gold

marsha any idea what you want your 2nd outfit to be? dress? trousers?

blingy my Dsis has been rocking her christmas jumper for over a week now Grin

AmberNectarine · 05/12/2015 12:39

Debuting my Xmas jumper today also.

Slightly disappointed not to have woken up looking 15... Wink

shopafrolic · 05/12/2015 15:39

Went to a fancy local hotel for dinner with friends last night. Wore my HL leathers, much better fit than my Joseph ones - with Libs theory grey cashmere sweater and my Sam Edelman black suede heeled boots.
Am now in Norfolk at the ILs - drinking.

shopafrolic · 05/12/2015 15:40

Lib love that Levis dress - glad it's getting worn.
Marsha hope the pain is easing.

Karcheer · 05/12/2015 15:47

Thinking of wearing my zarita tonight, what shoes do you think would be good and do you think I should wear tights? I've never worn anything but black or trousers in the evening... Feel a bit at a loss pathetic!

KittyHello · 05/12/2015 15:49

Great hearing about all your nights out. mine start next week.

Blingy you must be knackered, hope you get to fit in a rest somewhere.

Shop have you debuted the pink boots yet?

Karcheer I haven't worn mine yet but my leopard print heels funk it up a bit Grin

shopafrolic · 05/12/2015 16:59

Haven't had the balls to wear the pink boots yet. Needs to be a bar for cocktails I think rather than a restaurant.
Dry are you ok? Worried about the weather in your neck of the woods.....

Longislandicetee · 05/12/2015 17:37

Kitty yes knackered, November is always my most intense month of the year, glad it's over.

I just got in from the Christmas fayre. The kids and I all in our Christmas jumpers and do in his little reindeer hat. Dh looked appalled.Grinwe have friends coming over tonight so just about to light Christmassy scent candles all over the house. Am sticking with my day outfit!!

Shop your mission this month is to wear those boots at least once. Do not let them gather dust in your wardrobe aka do as I say not as I do!

Dry, I hope you're okay ooop NorthThanks

Longislandicetee · 05/12/2015 18:42

Shit shit shit. I can't find my Boodles ring. I think I took it off to bath the kids last night and put it in my back pocket. Haven't seen it since. Shit. Can't ask dh.

AmberNectarine · 05/12/2015 18:45

Presumably you've checked trousers/laundry basket?!

AmberNectarine · 05/12/2015 18:46

Off out with friends tonight - wearing v short, v sparkly TS Dress, Louboutin pigalles , Chanel and whistles teddy coat. Already had a bottle of wine at panto. Could get messy!

FedupNagging · 05/12/2015 19:08

Oh crap Blingy am sending positive 'find the bling' vibes.

Your whistles dress is a gorgeous colour Amber. Has dh recovered or will he be on water tonight?!

Marsha hope your neck is a little less sore now.

Sounds like you had a great time last night Viva - are you still recovering?
And Queen your social life has been full on this week. Hope you're not too tired to enjoy tonight Wink

Am sitting here with giant hair rollers dotted about my head in preparation for a party tonight. Will be wearing HL skinnies, Mint velvet blouse and either dune leopard print heels or Sam Edelman ollies.

shopafrolic · 05/12/2015 19:10

Blingy I lost my Gucci cuff watch for 4 days last week I the kitchen chaos. Kept thinking of you. WWBD what would Blingy do? Awful. Felt so sick. I have your Boodles ring (I wish!!)

shopafrolic · 05/12/2015 19:10

Hope you find it . My watch was in DS' room.

VivaVegas · 05/12/2015 19:31

Have struggled through the day. Strictly, Chinese and a glass of cloudy lemonade the order of the evening!
Will be doing it all again next weekend Hmm

Drywhitethanks · 05/12/2015 22:34

Oh my god it's HORRENDOUS here.....sooooooo windy for at least 24hrs and not calming down. Nearly got blown away earlier!

Amber I ordered the Warehouse dress too. Saw it the other day and you ordering it sealed the deal. Smile

Felt great in my P la V heels last night. Black Zara body con crepe shift with some unsubtle bling in jewel colours.

libertydoddle · 06/12/2015 00:57

Oh blingySad fingers crossed you find it quickly.

Karcheer · 06/12/2015 08:57

blingy hope you find it soon :(

Today's my birthday!
Last night we went to the greenhouse, which was lovely. I wore the dress with faux suede khaki shoes from matalan and my Saint Laurent clutch in grey. I don't have an evening coat so wore my tan leather jacket and lv cream/ivory pashmina.
Dh got me some rose good star diamond earrings (very nice) and my trip to NYC.
Today we are off to Bicester.

Longislandicetee · 06/12/2015 09:15

Happy birthday Karcheer!!! Hope you have a lovely day!CakeThanksWine

Big big thank you to Amber.Thanks The ring was in the laundry basket. Just found it. Unfortunately in my sheer panic and wine fuelled state, I told dh last night. His eye were bulging because he initially thought I meant my engagement ring. I have lost that three times once and I am banned from taking it off. I think I might have just killed any chance of Christmas bling from him which is why he doesn't know that I can't find one of my Gucci watches

QueenCardi · 06/12/2015 09:18

Morning all. Having a lovely weekend away and currently just lazing around after a big breakfast. Might do a quick spot of browsing...
