Feeling a bit sick of winter clothes? Looking forward to Spring Summer? Dry (and not-so-dry) January is over. Come and join us for fashion links and more. It's friendly here. Smile

In Liberty, not much choice in flats

Goldy silver Lanvin or red Chloe or get clothes instead?

MarshaBrady · 20/02/2016 12:47

Might try these Marants on too

Are the Marants suede? If so they'll get filthy!
I love Lanvins they are so comfy!
The red pumps are very cute, I tried them on in liberty too.

Ok I've been online shopping as dh decided to visit his mum on his own... don't leave me alone and depressed with a credit card

I'll probably send most of it back, but at least I tried at casual...

MarshaBrady · 20/02/2016 13:28

Or pink acne lightweight jumper

Karcheer · 20/02/2016 13:33

I'd get the bronze Lanvins, but I'm a magpie!

shopafrolic · 20/02/2016 13:39

Love the first Lanvins Marsha and the Acne x

Drywhitethanks · 20/02/2016 13:52

Karcheer I'm confused. Are you getting your colours checked? I thought that was what you said? Might be worth holding off buying any more Autumn stuff until you are sure? guess it's a bit late now
Marsha what did you go for?

MarshaBrady · 20/02/2016 14:41

Thanks lovelies I got the acne jumper and will order the silver Lanvins in my size.

Karcheer I think the gold ones would look great on you and Dry and Shop Thanks for rl shopping advice!

shopafrolic · 20/02/2016 15:01

Just finished the At Liberty book. Next up Mary Portas Shop Girl.
Think that sweater will be fab on you Marsha
DH has been doing his Wing Chun (karate) recently and spending more time meditating and trying to relax. Most of his back pain has gone and as a result he is much easier to be around. He said to me today how much better he feels and thanked me for my patience! It's only been 10 years but all good Smile

shopafrolic · 20/02/2016 15:02

p.s. Karcheer sorry for the tough love p

Karcheer · 20/02/2016 15:31

shop I think someone suggested getting them redone but I think the prognosis was correct. I do miss black, but I think I like hiding behind it. Tbh I think my problem is that I don't have many casual clothes and definitely none I like. I do have issues spending money on casual things, whereas I'm happy to spend on going out clothes which is ludicrous when you think about how often I where casual versus going out clothes.
I got myself in a crisis lately by not having any jeans (a staple) and stupidly being some things in primark!
I'd have no issue buying a 300 dress but the thought of spending that on something I could wear everyday would... Well I couldn't do it. Same with shoes happy to by expensive heels, prefer to buy cheapo boots. It's madness isn't it.
So I don't think it's the colours I think I blame them.
I need to look at my casual weekday wardrobe and like it and have options.
Sorry for ramble...

shopafrolic · 20/02/2016 15:36

Well then I think the Dressing Room shop looks fab. Some good basics in there. Those silk Rosemunde vests are brilliant.

Karcheer · 20/02/2016 15:41

The other thing I need to do is get jeans etc altered to fit me. And just generally make an effort!

Dreamqueen · 20/02/2016 15:41

Lovely jumper Marsha
Karcheer I like your purchases, I'm the same as you when itcomes to buying everyday wear & have ended up with a wardrobe of stuff thats functional but that i don't really enjoy wearing.
