MN Vogue Vol. 69

[libertydoddle]

Come and chat about fashion, make up and anything glittery and frivolous. We'll take your bad hair day seriously and you never have to apologise for a new bag

And if you happen to know where I can find comfortable but stylish trainers in kakhi or dark brown you are particularly welcome (Blatant abuse of thread setting up privileges)

Continuing from [[http://www.mumsnet.com/Talk/style_and_beauty/2570047-MNV-Volume-68 here]]

It was rather fab. Especially the evening chilled house music sessions watching the sunset.
Mustn't forget the vibe too quickly - especially in this damp weather situation

dry.

Welcome home shop.

Fedup epic fail am afraid, went to d&g and they had everything imaginable in that print except my little bag. Instead I bought 3 real italian lemons in F&M food hall (at ten English pounds/kg [faints]) and made a drizzle cake for dinner party tomorrow.

Didn't go to chloé as too far away and it was pouring but I did buy a lovely light green Liberty print summer dressing gown which will link tomorrow as can't find it online. Liberty has started stocking Mansur Gavriel bags which have never seen irl before but can say they certainly don't live up to the hype. There's something crude about the quality, also the display ones were scratched.

Shop welcome back!! Curry and fizz by the fire sounds like a nice homecoming.

Dry spot on!! Presume during this time you were working your ripped jeans/scuffed trainers/mussed up hair casual look?

Welcome home Shop
I love the silver shoes that you kept Queen I'm totally in love with flat shoes. Had to start wearing them last summer when I broke my little toe & now hardly wear heels at all.

I spoke to DP about coming to MU & he said go and enjoy yourself. ( had thought he'd be about me galivanting off to meet lots of people that I've never met befor)
Please add me to the list. BTW in real life I'm not that stylish so not quite sure why I enjoy the S&B threads so much

Morning! Dream I remember my pure panic when I went to the first MU utterly convinced that I was going to be axe murdered, or, I was going to be "found out" that I wasn't actually stylish! You won't regret it, I promise.

Shop, welcome back honey! Mwaaaah! Please keep that relaxed holiday vibe for a while, you were so stressed (for good reasons) before you went. Loved your holiday photos.

Dry loved your summary

QueenC, I loved those last few links. Loved the fringed cardigan. Would love to be able to wear that myself but don't think it's me. Loved the less shiny sling backs.

Mara, love the idea of you just casually knocking out a lemon drizzle cake.

Waves back to Kitty and FedUp!

Mild wardrobe panic this weekend, I am off somewhere next week where it's going to be really really hot.

Work trip or pleasure Blingy?
Morning all. I am shattered. Need to get up as need to go shopping for birthday gifts for DH (Monday) - so unorganised. DS has a party this afternoon and then we are out with friends for dinner tonight. Back to normality but in a nice way.

Morning. Bit of a sore head here!
mara I forgot to comment on the chloe bag-i really like that one. Ive never been a huge fan of other chloe bags but this one is lovely. I don't think it will date. Shame about the lemons bag. Can you order online? Cake sounds delicious.

dream will be great to meet you. I checked my tickets yesterday. Ive booked a train home for 9.30-I'll have to go slow on the Prosecco othetwise I'll wake up in Cornwall!!

QueenC meant to say good choice on the shoes and the cardigan is brill

Thanks shop. Hoping for dry weather for meet up so that I can wear both!

Opinions please on these sandals I've never bought fromSarenza before but have heard it mentioned on here.

Dream don't worry about being/not being stylish as you've guessed by now MNV is much more than just the clothes.

Great buys Queen hope the sore head goes away quickly

Welcome back Shop sounds as if the holiday was the tonic you needed. Glad your df is home.

Off out on our bikes today, providing the rain holds off.

Well I'm incredibly stylish and beautiful so you should all rightfully be intimidated by me. Or, in real life, I'll probably turn up hungover and looking like something the cat dragged in...

On way home from not so sunny Brighton. Fun was had, karaoke was sung and cocktails were drunk. Good times. Didn't buy anything, though was tempted by some disco pants in American Apparel. May yet buy.

Dreamqueen de-lurking - again - to say there are US6.5 black suede pettys on Zalando at the moment. £112 but go through Quidco for 8% cashback, and either sign up to the newsletter or there's a £10 off code on hotdeals (or one of those sites). Just got my size for £102.

Free delivery and returns too.

Thanks Loulou I'm off to look now.

Ordered, Thanks Loulou
I've never really looked on Zalando before & didn't realise the did click & collect. Another whole new shpping world has opened up for me.

Dreamqueen oh great, hope they fit, do feedback (I'll still be lurking!)

I don't order often, but have never had any problems with Zalando, including returning stuff for refund. Also agree, I love a click and collect option, I know it's safe till I collect it without worrying some courier has dumped it on the doorstep, and also limits the amount my other half sees arriving at the house!!

I seem to remember you turning up to the last mu with a hangover headache Amber although most annoyingly you still looked fab!

How disappointing re the lemon bag Mara; hope your dinner party is a success tonight drools at the thought of lemon drizzle cake

Be lovely to meet you in May Dream. Hope the next pair of petty's fit.

Off out with Dh soon - cinema and a meal. Weather is wet and very cold so am wearing J brand skinnies, tory burch shirt over french connection blue jumper. Will remove very thick fluffy socks and put on jalouse boots when we go out - Claire Underwood in heels is the look I'm going for!

Welcome louloubelle stick around - we're nice here :)
Have fun FedUp what are you going to see?
I'm off out for dinner too - feeling the cold so will probably stick to my default of leather skinnies, tee and have the first outfit for my new HL blazer that Dry found for me. First outing for this beauty too

Welcome loulou

Dream yes do come, mus are so much fun. Everyone is pretty much like on here ie nice, friendly and welcoming!

I have bitten the bullet and ordered both the d&g lemon pouch and chloé Georgia. Will see.

Can you link Mara? I think i missed the fun......

Have fun Fedup. Yes its baltic today, I mistakenly dressed for spring in fling jeans with cobalt tod's, armor lux breton and only Stella blazer as coat. Have put my winter coats away, maybe prematurely.

Anyone watching Marcella? She has my woolrich parka!

Shop bag 1

bag 2

Like the sound of both your outfits Fedup and Shop

Had to wear my North Face parka and gloves today it was that cold brr brr. Back home now in comfy longe wear and with the heating on.

Loulou de- lurk and join us, sounds like you've got some good money savings tips and as you know we all love a bargain.

Amber did you manage to wear all 4 pairs of shoes in 24 hours?

Lib yes I'm a maybe for the MU, I would love to come as it sounds like it's going to be well attended! Our flight home lands at 8.30pm on the 13th, so it just depends how I feel the next day.

Outfit sounds great shop, very glam and very you. Have fun, am glad you enjoyed your holiday, the hotel did look v stylish!

Mara great bag porn... can't wait to hear what they're like.

I had another nightmare week work wise. Very long hours, and the joys of sharing a room in a travelodge. Managed to fit in some shopping at lunchtime though: would have cracked up otherwise
Nike Juvenates - yes another pair of trainers haha, but they're so comfy! I'll keep the Stans too.
French Connection green silk top, the perfect Spring colour.
And a silk scarf from TK Maxx and loads of new socks for my holiday. All reduced from outlet stores.
