Marsha gorgeous Acne jumper - definitely a great colour for you. Also good call on the silver Lanvins. Love the bronze too - can someone else buy those?!

Karcheer, great haul yesterday - love the AV lychee jumper and assuming you keep it all, you can mix and match all of it so have lots of outfits which you can dress up or down with accessories/bags etc.

Glad you had a good week skiing Viva- don't envy you your wash load!

Definitely a bright colour or nude shoes for your Mum Queen - if she insists on navy shoes, try to persuade her to at least get a bright bag. Nice Miss Selfridge jacket too.

We've had visitors this week and outfits were pretty much skinnies and a variety jumpers and boots - roll on spring and ankle skimmers and flats.

Today I am in yoga pants, polo-neck jumper and large fluffy blanket (have a throat infection) so won't be going anywhere. Am meeting friends for lunch tomorrow so looking forward to dressing up a bit.

love that clutch queenC

OOTD is a long sleeve grey tee, midid length black ribbed tube skirt, black tights and grey Harry Potter hoodie. comfy and warm and easy for me to get on and off which is good as my hand still isnt right yet

AmberNectarine · 21/02/2016 19:53

How timely QueenC, I just bought another pineapple lamp and pineapple bed sheets with the M&S 20% off. Not sure id spring that on a clutch though, esp as I love my Givenchy so much none of the others are getting a look in at the mo!

shopafrolic · 21/02/2016 19:57

Any LFW highlights for you all? The Temperley show is so not my style but beautiful.

MarshaBrady · 21/02/2016 20:42

Having a look through the LFW site - lots of designers I have t heard about yet

MarshaBrady · 21/02/2016 20:43

Missing that little n there

MarshaBrady · 21/02/2016 20:44

Viva your holiday sounds amazing. I'd love to see that view

Fedup thanks! Have a lovely lunch tomorrow, what will you wear?

QueenC · 21/02/2016 20:48

one has my parcel arrived yet?

shopafrolic · 21/02/2016 21:04

McQueen looks good too....

Larastheme · 21/02/2016 21:20

Topshop unique is a joke right?

FedupNagging · 21/02/2016 21:35

Phew! Have just read through the CH thread - very interesting reading. I did read a few beauty blogs a while back and wondered how on earth they managed to get through so many products!

I'll probably wear BR black silk shirt with ankle zip skinnies tomorrow Marsha and if it's really cold a cropped jumper over the top. Otherwise a dragonfly silver necklace. Oh and ash jalouse boots.

Off to google TS unique and other fashion week pics

VivaVegas · 21/02/2016 22:03

Seems a distant memory now Marsha, replaced by a tower of ironing to look at.
Back to reality and work tomorrow so that's something not to look forward to tomorrow evening!

shopafrolic · 22/02/2016 07:51

Viva hope today isn't too much of a shock to the system.
One very grumpy DS here when I woke him at 7.30. He kept saying "just don't even look at me". Not sure where he gets his diva tendencies from Grin

Karcheer · 22/02/2016 11:32

I'm off to the vogue thingy at the national gallery today.
Ootd oatmeal Gerard darel jumper, vic beckham blue skinniest, tan long Valentino boots, H gold and tan belt, mk tan leather jacket. LV animal print scarf.

shopafrolic · 22/02/2016 12:49

Just watched Stylist Mag running a live feed from their taxi on the way to the Burberry show. Pretty neat idea. Unsurprisingly they had to turn off once inside though......

Stokey · 22/02/2016 13:03

Anyone need a shirt dress? Love this but am too short and curvy to wear anything that ties round the waist.

Guardian's take on the key Fashion week trends

Enjoy Vogue Karcheer, OOTD sounds good.

I'm in R&B skinnies, Selfish Mother sweatshirt and Stans - got a bad back so can't exercise and feeling overweight. Don't think my outfit is doing me any favours, will try harder tomorrow.

Larastheme · 22/02/2016 13:27

How gorgous are those erdem sling backs, I'm trying to get my hands on those infamous chanel ones that are constantly sold out, it took me three tries to get my name on the wait list! Fingers crossed I get them,

Anyone else thinks LFW is just blah this season? It's more reality tv celebraties show off than actual coverage of the clothes, very unprofessional I think, when a designer thinks that inviting the cast of MIC will bring publicity then it really shows how desperate they must be,

shopafrolic · 22/02/2016 13:40

Lara Stylist continued their coverage by filming the show. Every single person there was watching through their iPhone / other mobile device. Sad really. No-one seemed to be in the moment. I guess it's the best way to remind yourself of each outfit once you're writing it up back at the office but still.......
Stokey same outfit here except Pistols instead of Stans - getting bored now, come on Spring
Karcheer have fun and let us know what it's like

OneNightTimeMenaceStrikesBack · 22/02/2016 14:12

queenC if your parcel is in a sort of burgundy outer covering then it's arrived this morning, just avent had time to open anything yet Thanks
