Karcheer what did you wear last night?

Lib sorry I can't make the MU, dh's birthday the following day so we're going out on Sat and I live too far out to pop in for an hour Sad

Mara was in Decathlon the other week and noticed they had ski stuff including base layers there.

Queen hope dh is back to help you out. Looking after dc alone is exhausting work. Flowers

Blingy you're sounding a bit perkier, hope you're on the mend.

OOtd is gym wear complete with sports bra! Yesterday I bought some coloured underwear sets from the M&S sales rack, bras for £2.99 and knickers for £1.49, not colours I'd normally wear, a red set and lilac set but for that price I grabbed them.

Longislandicetee · 17/01/2016 14:33

Afternoon everyone. I went out this morning against dh's advice, thinking I was well enough to go out for an hour. Bad idea. Now back in bed.Sad

LinusLovesBretons · 17/01/2016 15:52

Blingy! Angry

I have been cooking all afternoon (Rick Stein's fish pie, adapted to my taste) and now I am enjoying an ice cold glass of Champagne.

It's maybe a bit early but I don't care. Grin

So wish I could make the MU! I am in need of some frivolous S&B talk IRL.

Longislandicetee · 17/01/2016 16:07

I know. I know. BlushYour afternoon sounds wonderful!Envy

Karcheer · 17/01/2016 16:25

linus I cooked scones this afternoon.

I need some urgent help girls Grin dh has been to selfridges today and got me this it's black and not really anything I'd find useful. So what shall I swap it for?

GeorginaWorsley · 17/01/2016 16:28

Just been for 2 hour walk up local landmark that is 1000ft so plenty of snow and somewhat chilly at the top!
Was relatively cosy in Marks thermal Leggings Underneath my running leggings, 2 pairs thermal socks, walking boots, thermal tee and furry lined parka from phase eight last year that is so toasty!
Hope eeveryone okay in the cold.

LinusLovesBretons · 17/01/2016 16:37

karcheer it's not the kind of colour that would suit my wardrobe but I love this bag

georgina I feel tired just reading the description of your day Wink

justasecond · 17/01/2016 16:40

How lovely of your dh Karcheer what don't you like about it? I think the disco is more wearable day to day.
Poor Blingy you sound really ill, don't even think about going into work tomrorow!
Sorry won't be able to make the mu again this time. Have my belated birthday lunch on that day which I did try to rearrange but couldn't then get everyone together until March! Hopefully next time though

I see the bag thread has gone the usual way...

Karcheer · 17/01/2016 16:42

linus that's lovely but I don't know how well it would survive dog walks. I'm sure I can get a store credit so could use it for anything in selfridges really.

shopafrolic · 17/01/2016 16:54

Linus DS was at a party this afternoon so DH and I hit the wine and had some 'quality time' before he leaves tomorrow. Clinks glass.
Novice stop thinking you know best and listen if people say you need to rest. You'll be off for another week at this rate. And yea I am cross with you x

Longislandicetee · 17/01/2016 17:35

I am in bed, promise! Ds is watching room on a broom with me.

Bag threads make me despair. I will argue my corner but still...

Anyway the bag the OP of the bag thread is totally lush and has now whipped on to my list.Grin

GeorginaWorsley · 17/01/2016 17:40

linus
I wanted to get some exercise in so I can lie in front of fire drinking champagne and watching Call The Midwife And War and Peace laterGrin

Dreamqueen · 17/01/2016 18:07

I'm bowing out of the 10 item challenge. I just bought a dress of meandem so I'm already up to end of spring in my purchases. I admit defeat & my wardrobe will continue to burst open instead of being an homage to Kondo.

MarshaBrady · 17/01/2016 18:18

On bags I love the colour of this Givenchy antigona. It's a mini, wonder if the full size exists.

Longislandicetee · 17/01/2016 18:25

Grin Dream. And that's why I didn't join in!

Marsha that bag is gorgeous. However filly as I am, my love for Antigona may now be surpassed by the Prada. Cos you know, I use the other Prada tote so much.HmmBlush

MarshaBrady · 17/01/2016 18:27

Oh Blingy I was hoping you'd buy it and I could admire through you get both Grin

Karcheer · 17/01/2016 18:29

I can't see a bag thread :/ I'm going to swap this Gucci tomorrow so need some inspiration.

Longislandicetee · 17/01/2016 18:30

Ah a subliminal post! Cunning.Grin

Karcheer, don't worry about not finding the bag thread.Grin

MarshaBrady · 17/01/2016 18:30

We'll help you Karcheer, which Gucci are you swapping?

FedupNagging · 17/01/2016 19:08

Aagh, I've just lost a really long post!

It's great hearing about everyone's snow day - even Georgina's marathon hill climb.Grin

As football was cancelled we rounded up the dc's and went to the cinema and for a meal. After the excesses of yesterday, dh and I were drinking water and ds2 beer!

Looking forward to the MU next weekend - Lib could you pm me the details please; I wasn't there last summer so have no idea where you've booked.

Your dh has really good taste Karcheer - shame its not a colour or style that you'd use. How about this bag?

LinusLovesBretons · 17/01/2016 19:16

Lol shop! With young DC you have to grab any opportunity for 'quality time' when you're not too knackered that is

MarshaBrady · 17/01/2016 19:18

I should read back, Karcheer you've already linked. I love that Fedup

Lovely to see you here Sleep

Lib lovely boots

Shop QueenC love the Tom Ford dress, very much

Blingy hope tomorrow is ok

Thank you for anniversary good wishes Thanks, I've been so busy have wanted to post for ages

Underwear is simple, I just did a sale order from Bodas, which I'm really happy with

Oh and picked up some MiH Paris light blue skinnies from Yoox for £27 and a bargain

FedupNagging · 17/01/2016 19:47

Have just read the bag thread - yes, I know they never end well but I do enjoy drooling over the pictures of gorgeous bags!

So now I'm looking a bags.

Grey falabella - lush

This khaki colourway would be great for you Karcheer and Lib for that matter.

Crazy bag. Not my cup of tea but maybe Amber or One

Great for holiday's

Like this too

Karcheer · 17/01/2016 19:53

I'd like something like my Chloe mini marcie but just a bit bigger, something I can throw on, but still have two hands free.

FedupNagging · 17/01/2016 19:56

Love, Love the colour of this - not sure about the fringing though.

Perfect crossbody bag

Animal print anyone?
