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 Grin

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) Wink

Lots to catch up on, Bernice the BR chinos are true to size, I still haven't worn them yet so am unsure about them bagging during the day.

Blair sounds like you're living it up in HK, I don't blame you, it's a cool place

Mara got the pm thanks, will be there.

Shop sounds like a lovely day was panned yesterday, hope dh is responding well to his new eating regime.

Have missed loads, had to send the pony skin belt back because I'm not an XS and had to send these pony skin trainers back as they made my feet look like clown's feet.

Drywhitethanks · 01/05/2016 10:55

In the end. Felt a bit over dressed Skinnies and ballet flats all round and TALL...this NEVER happens to me Grin

Am feeling MN MU outfit dilemma building. Camel coat is in dry cleaners, Reiss blazer ready Incase its warm....that's how far I've got so far Grin

Now.......off to buy a nice bin my life is all glamour my Wesco has died and DH won't let me buy another one Sad

Dreamqueen · 01/05/2016 16:55

My S&B attempt for MU is booking for new micro bladed brows on Saturday. I'm not really a high any typeof maintenance person. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I won't end up with scouse brow.

Trying to plan an outfit & hoping to lose a few lbs in the next 2 weeks. On a happier note, I'm very excited at the thought of MU.

QueenC · 01/05/2016 17:26

dream it will be great to meet you. Do you drink prosecco?

AmberNectarine · 01/05/2016 17:41

Afternoon all

On way home now after a wonderful weekend in Bristol with some fabulous friends. Went to Kilver yesterday and even spotted a certain blogger. Came away with these Joseph trousers. Regretting leaving a pair of shoes in Mulberry - am going to call and see if they'll post them to me tomorrow.

Also picked up this and this as have top ennui at the moment.

Hope everyone is having a lovely weekend

Dreamqueen · 01/05/2016 17:45

QueenC I like prosecco but prefer gin actually love all alcohol
So excited, can't believe that DP has said "yes go and have fun meeting strangers off the internet! "
hopefully I'll have lovely new eyebrows. LOL I'm not one for beauty treatments, maybe reading S&B is changing me. It can only be for the better.

LinusLovesBretons · 01/05/2016 17:47

DH's latest creation for my weekly White Lady

MN Vogue Vol. 69
Dreamqueen · 01/05/2016 17:51

Linus had to google white lady before replying. That looks amazing. i may possibly have had a few more gins than you at this point. I blame the stress of the football.

LinusLovesBretons · 01/05/2016 18:55

dreamqueen I will have to sort out my eyebrows now before the MU!

I used to have them threaded in London when I lived there ages ago so I might try and have them done there before the MU and hope I won't look like a red blotchy mess.

On the Wine now....

Dreamqueen · 01/05/2016 19:00

Linus I'm on the gin with added extra juniper berries (pretending to be posh ) i confess that paying eyebrows any attention is a new diversification for me. I'd be better off paying attention to my spreading mid life waistline :(.

MarshaBrady · 01/05/2016 19:42

Dream that's great! It is exciting

Linus that looks pretty good!

MarshaBrady · 01/05/2016 19:58

Mara thanks so much for the pm, just noticed the other one, may be too late but will reply!

QueenC · 01/05/2016 20:12

dream you'll fir right in then Wink.

Love the build up to a mu on here!

shopafrolic · 01/05/2016 20:31

Dream MUs are brill. what the hell is microblading?
So Sleep is a miracle worker. Day 1 of DH's new diet and he is much less bloated already. Fab.
Lovely day today. Zoo visit this morning, gardening this afternoon. Lovely and sunny - makes such a difference.

Drywhitethanks · 01/05/2016 21:45

That's great Shop

Dream I'm with Shop what on earth is microblading? And MUs are brilliant. Not at all intimidating. The build up is fun. Before my first one I panicked so much about what to wear, got in my car, half way to the city to buy something on impulse which I'd have later regretted I pulled myself together and did a dramatic u turn and came home. Ridiculous behaviour Grin. Got to MU and felt right at home.

linus I'm going to check the ingredients you gave ages ago to see if I can have a White Lady tomorrow. Your Dh is great with lemon rind btw.

And rhubarb vodka is horrible.

Dreamqueen · 02/05/2016 07:18

Shop & Dry booking eyebrows is a moment of madness. microblading is some kind of semi permanent colour on the eyebrows. hoping that they turn out ok.

White lady sounds lovely. i need to buy the ingredients though.

*Shop8 glad to hear that DH new diet is going well.

LinusLovesBretons · 02/05/2016 08:58

Morning!

I love this IM jacket but it's ££££.

OOTD is my The Fling jeans (would buy the exact same pair again if it was still available), Brooks Brothers miracle shirt (they are virtually non-iron and I've got DH hooked on them as well now) and Brunello Cucinelli cashmere jumper as it's still freezing in the morning.

I'll probably be boiling by lunchtime but nice and toasty now.
