Fedup skim reading meant I missed your post. Feel better soon x

My first business class experience - first glass of Prosecco? champers going round, better be good movies. Good so far Grin Ruins economy.

Big love to everyone, see you on the other side gorgeous people

MarshaBrady · 27/02/2016 22:09

Shop Thanks lovely, well done for getting through it glad all is ok

Fedup hope you feel better

Stokey how was the work chat?

MarshaBrady · 27/02/2016 22:10

Amber am green at your weekend would love to have done that

Longislandicetee · 27/02/2016 22:27

Safe flight Marsha! yes, I didn't tell you that flying economy will never quite be the same.Grin

I like this jacket and am currently dithering.

Merriboo · 27/02/2016 23:35

Blingy it's nice, with good detailing but if you're not averse to real leather, have a look at this one my friend has it in the dark tan suede, but tried the tan leather and the lines one on. KM also do it in a lush cobalt.

Merriboo · 27/02/2016 23:59

Oh and Envy at your bag collection.
I'm the infuriatedslightly disappointed owner of odd boots... One still knee length, the other ankle length. Thanks to my darling doggie who decided to customise my suede R&B knee length flat boots Shock
V unlike her, but she was in season so I'm blaming the hormones!
Went shopping today but felt quite uninspired. It was late afternoon and Zara looked like a mid-sale frenzy had hit the new stock. Gap didn't have any Sloan fit trousers in store annoyingly. When did Reiss become a such a sea of man-made fabrics at that price point?

QueenC · 28/02/2016 08:57

Oh no merriboo!

Not feeling the love for designer wares this morning so am doing a high street trawl.

First up for shop

Oh no Meriboo!Shock

I love the jacket you linked. I was going for something warm and don't know whether the one I linked would be warmer? I want to be able to wear on a cold day with a scarf and still be warm, noting I get very cold! Anyone own a leather jacket? Dry?

Look forward to the high street links QueenC!

I am currently in bed in a spare room. I escaped up here at 3am when both kids came to visit me at some point in the night as they had bad dreams. Somehow they managed to squeeze me out of our massive bed.Hmm dh came to find me at 5.30am when they then stretched out more and did the same to him.Grin

Longislandicetee · 28/02/2016 09:19

Love the Breton! More, moreGrin

QueenC · 28/02/2016 09:20

What colour would you say this is? Navy or dark teal?

Love this although not bra friendly

Longislandicetee · 28/02/2016 09:33

Think that top is navy.

Absolutely love the Karen Millen dress. I would get it if I wasn't on a dress ban.

I like the Reiss biker but suede scares me! I think the KM one is my favourite of the two.

Just saw these Dune sandals which I love.

Longislandicetee · 28/02/2016 09:38

Love this Tommy Hilfiger stripe jumper pity they don't do an xs.

Morning all

Blingy as soon as I saw your post, I thought of Massimo Dutti. They do lovely leather - this or a darker zippy one. I have a black biker that I wear quite a lot - more in Spring or Autumn than now though.

Amazing Lanvins Marsha, and yes flying business is lush. Work chat was OK but speaking to Dh over the week, we think I definitely do need to do either 4 day, or work from home at least once a week. So don't know if it'll be an option, it's good to clarify though.

Hope you feel better Fedup - chest infection sucks.

Seven dwarves Dry Grin? DD1 wants to be a black cat luckily so we've been scouring her books and found Gobbolino the witch's cat, lovely story.

Gutting about the boots Merriboo

Longislandicetee · 28/02/2016 09:43

Love this All Saints dress. It's a cheaper version of an Armani dress I have. The one I have looks lovely on for work or a nice dinner.

Merriboo · 28/02/2016 09:46

Oh yes!! She also nibbled a couple of chunks off the zip of my chocolate knee suede boots- these were years old.

Blingy snap, I'm always cold. I looked at the Reiss suede one yesterday, it's lovely but a paler biscuity colour so not as practical. I would see you more in the KM one which I love.
QueenC loving the links, esp the Breton. Top looks navy to me. Was surprised to see KM in John Lewis recently, still waiting for the Finery section to launch.

Merriboo · 28/02/2016 09:51

Stokey that second jacket looks lush! I haven't really shopped at Massimo Dutti but just browsing they have some trousers which look good for work- any suggestions would be welcomed

FedupNagging · 28/02/2016 10:09

Poor minishop, glad he's ok now.

I've only flown business (Virgin upper class) once (upgraded) - was like a child in a sweetie shop much to the embarrassment of dh who regularly travelled business/first. Am mega excited as we're flying business for our big holiday this year.

Love the pleather jacket in grey Blingy - it won't keep you warm though.

What a shame your boots got chewed Meriboo. Good excuse to buy more!

Loving the Hilfiger Breton and the lace top.

As dh has confined me to bed today I have been looking at more trainers - there are so many I love starting with Asos own brand £25ish to Ash £145. Will try to link some but am on iPad.
