MN Vogue vol 67

[QueenC]

It's january. Some of us are dry, some of us are shredding but all of us are looking forward to new spring/summer stock arriving...

Come and join us for fashion, fun and frivolousness. And bring your links

Viva so glad you're feeling better. I cant open your link though.

Hi to Bendy, great purchases and really like the turquoise silk shirt.

Shop so pleased minishop enjoyed his party. How did yours go Mara?

Fedup I always have trouble linking things from Pin, might be as I'm on my phone.

Some links:

Love this jumper
Blue knit for Marsha
For Shop and One

Top and Shorts anyone?

Love this

This dress looks stunning on the model - great colour for you autumns

Great links Fedup. Amber could do that top and shorts for sure!

I love the shape of the VB dress, very romantic classic I think. The Balmain is lovely but what the hell would you do with your boobs in it???

I said yesterday I want to buy a nice jacket for work this year. Would be great if people could point me towards anything suitable. My limit is probably around £250 (hoping for something like Marant in the sales). An example of the type of thing I would like is this Etoile IM one but in an autumnal shade.

I also really like this IM one

For Queen

Great holiday dress

Strangely I really like these trainers

Great colour

I'm sure someone here has/is considering a Lanvin sugar - way out of my price range but I love it in blue and especially pink

Morning! Am feeling much better this morning. I stood on the scales and realised I have lost the Christmas pounds over the last few days. Reminds me of being pregnant when (like now) i had that awful metallic taste in my mouth and so just ate what I needed to eat to stay healthy. Even my monthly period craving induced bar of chocolate is staring at me forlornly.

I was on the John Lewis website yesterday and they have teamed up with dressipi to filter their clothes down to a personal style edit. Quite interesting as I have always sworn by dressipi but I realise that if you answer just one or two questions slightly incorrectly, you get dodgy recommendations. I accidentally said my hips are bigger than my shoulders, which is not true, I am an hour glass and it was recommending stuff I knew wouldn't suit me till I corrected my profile. Anyway it's good fun if you want to try!

I love the Etoile IM jacket lib, and it is a great bargain too (fighting temptation as I really don't need another jacket).

The MBMJ bag is gorgeous Fedup.

Will keep eyes peeled Liberty

Lovely links Fedup, that maxi is gorgeous. Tricky colour.

SS wish list update:
Black maxi ..... Difficult, I'm fussy and short. Don't want flimsy fabric. Prefer crew/slash neck.
Navy QueenC!! beach cover up
Halter neck swimsuit
Silk camisoles in black and white/off white I'm thinking these would look good with printed pencil skirts that I already have for holiday evening
Don't 'need' but would like camel/stone fitted SB blazer.

Out for lunch with DH work people who I don't know, at what to wear big problem .

Morning!

Blingy so glad you're feeling better. Hopefully this time it's for good. :)

Lib I think if you want IM, nothing else is going to be quite right, so I'd keep an eye out on the outnet as her stuff pops up quite often there. I'm always all over their new in page so I'll let you know if I see anything!

Fedup I really like those trainers.

Viva glad you're better too, flu is horrible. Your MD link didn't work for me!

DH has gone to work so I've got a day chilling browsing. Might do some chores I suppose.

Thanks dry and blingy think I'll return the Zara shoes..

fedup LOVE the olive Balmain dress!

Fedup love the baby blue knit - such a pretty Spring colour

Blair you are right re IM - there is a lovely red jacket on Outnet atm but not in my size. Will check regularly.

Blingy, you will be proud of me. I have just ordered 2 new bras from Figleaves and with your words echoing around my head I have ordered the matching knickers too .

I'll tell DH he owes you!

Update on the purse shopping- had a lovely day with OH yesterday, looking at purses, then somehow it progressed to bags and jewellery. Properly spioiled.
He wanted my present to be one that he likes and it came down to the Gucci soho hobo (he still doesn't like the discos) or Chloe Faye bag, topaz drop earrings or an engraved gold bangle. Bless him, he did say that he didn't really get the whole bag thing, so it was the bracelet. I'm thrilled as it is so pretty, the engraving/white gold satisfies my magpie love of bling, is long lasting. I am so spoiled, not only for this but also for the time and fun we had shopping, and it's more meaningful that we chose it together in such a fun filled day.

Followed by dinner and prosecco at James Martins and much more laughter over cocktails at the casino.
Outfit was navy mango jumpsuit, glitter ink Jimmy Choos,Zara clutch, vintage faux fur and a huge smile.

I am in soft play party hell.

Meriboo your day sounds lovely! Happy belated birthday!

Lib, I mailed you back. Very glad to hear you bought matching underwear. i am thinking of you lots today because I am wearing the lovely bracelet you gave me. X

Sympathies Blingy and thanks. Am nursing hangover in pjs.
oH comments about not quite getting expensive bags made me chuckle in view of the mumsnet bag threads....
Loving your Roxanne.

thoughts on the Faye? I would have got the grey suede, just wondered if contents need to be kept streamlined

Fedup you're doing a lovely job in Sunday's QueenC of Links absence

Blingy that is the exact Roxanne I had, bought for me by the same ex-fiancé who bought me the Tiffany solitaire ring. You and he would have got

It is a lovely bag though, and I did like it but it was too chunky for me. I've realised I either like tiny crossbody bags for leisure or massive totes for work.

Boring OOTD today, but not doing much - black ribbed long sleeve button front crop top from American Apparel, black high-waisted skinnies from Dr Denim, black Nike Blazers and red tartan scarf.

I know right? Sort it out QueenC - no commitment

Ha ha amber . I'm at the airport feeling slighly jaded after a Prosecco and guiness fuelled weekend. Looking forward to a nap on the plane!

Just trying to catch up on m/u gossip....

Fedup the victoria beckham dress looks so lovely.

I think this is the Mary Poppins of dresses, I like everything about it.
Shame I don't like dresses on me

Lib is this too cold?

MU sounds great, nice to have a small one.

I'm exhausted, cooked Sunday lunch for friends and then may have had a few glasses of red.

Collapsed now. Hello Bendy, love your name, they were much more buggy friendly!

Happy Birthday Meriboo, outfit sounds great.

Or a See by Chloe one, Lib?
