Stokey she was obvs super excited by how gorgeous she looked. Grin

Have just ordered the summer M&S beauty box (£10 with £40 spend) Clothes where average but bought knickers & shorts for DP to make up the £40.

shopafrolic · 09/06/2016 09:49

Love the pouch Mara - unfortunately I'm looking for a friend not for me but that has made it onto my Lust List - fabulous

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 09/06/2016 10:20

I only have one thing on my sales wishlist so far - a pair of jeans from NAP. I know they will be reduced because they are in the US sale.

Blingy if you happen to see this and have a moment, how do the J crew campbell trousers fit please? Are they TTS? I have a 4 in other J crew trousers (cafe capris) but the size guide says I'd need a 6. Ty Flowers

Delurking to say hello and wondering if I can join? I love all the fashion talk! Unfortunately being a mum to two very small people and mainly working at home means I don't get to dress up too often but I still l love clothes and perusing the Internet. I've been wanting a couple of smartish / pretty summer skirts - something that I can wear to work or out for drinks or just out and about so have just purchased these two. monsoon and whistles Annoyingly I missed the recent 20% off in whistles as was on holiday... I've also got my eye on this one too karen millen but missed the KM promo as well due to the holiday.

shopafrolic · 09/06/2016 13:42

Welcome Everyone. That KM skirt is very pretty. Their sale started today so doubt they'll do a discount code for a while.....
Monsoon link just went to their home page on my phone.
Stick around :)

BerniceBobsHerHair · 09/06/2016 14:14

Hello and welcome Everyone. Lovely skirts, I especially like the whistles one.

Shop I thought of the Whistles rivington clutch, but seems red is OOS. Unhelpful.

Clearly I have Whistles on the brain but Fedup these look like a nice pair of block heeled sandals though I like them more in orange

I've got these - haven't worn them out yet - hope the laces don't annoy me!

I'm wearing my pinafore dress today - I'm not sure it is the most flattering item of clothing but it is comfortable and easy to wear. Think I might get more wear out of it in AW.

Amber those are fairytale shoes! They are lovely.

I saw these and thought of you and One

Mara I can't remember if I've commented but I love yours - great colour. I like reading about your DH's comments - they always make me smile Grin

QueenC Grin at 2 cardigans.

Everyonelovessparkles · 09/06/2016 15:13

Thanks 😀 Yes I saw that Karen millen had a sale on, typically what I like is never in the sale or is in the sale after I've bought it full price. monsoon link again

When I was looking at monsoon I saw that they have a guest designer collection, Daniella Helayel, I think she is the lady behind the Kate Middleton Issa engagement dress as the designs look very similar....

shop I saw longchamp on brand alley as well this morning but the long handled le pilage bags were all sold out before 9.

amber those shoes are gorgeous.

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 09/06/2016 15:24

Hello and welcome Everyone! Love the print of the Whistles skirt.

Lots of sales starting... but every year less and less of the nicer summer stuff seems to actually go in Hmm

Everyonelovessparkles · 09/06/2016 15:38

I know what you mean blair and also more summer stuff is still coming out. There seems to have been lots of sales and promotional codes this year, makes me reluctant to but anything full price as a sale or offer is always round the corner. I have been known to repurchase things in the sale and get a refund on the more expensive one. Blush

AmberNectarine · 09/06/2016 15:40

Hello everyone - welcome. Lovely links Smile

My shoes are coming tomorrow - always amazes me how stores in the US can deliver in under 48h but some stores here can't deliver inside a week!

Dreamqueen · 09/06/2016 15:54

Hello Everyone welcome. I used to be a newby on here too. They are all lovely. Smile

KittyHello · 09/06/2016 17:09

Hello everyone and welcome, please stick around and bring us your links, love the KM skirt.

Mara whoop whoop on the Gucci's i love them.

Amber love the metallic sandals, the are fab, I wish I was your daughter, inheriting your fantastic footwear collection, swoons.

Dry great animal print sandals too

Bernice did you get the Boden bangle, I love it but it' s bit tight going over my hands. I'm keeping it.

Fedup I bet your head says block heel sandals but your heart is saying go for the sexy red caged ones.

Sorry if I've missed other links/purchases have had a busy few days, hence posting and not coming back to respond Blush obviously my idea of busy pales into insignificance compared to Blingy's Wink

Thanks for the replies about the TF perfume, I'll ask over on the perfume thread later.

Sales shopping has begun, found my tan cross body at the right price:

Jaeger tan cross body bag love the fact I can wear it cross body and as a shoulder bag.

Been thinking recently about getting a smarter tote for work as my Le Pliage is on its 3rd year and I fancy a change, was thinking about LV Neverful but too ££££ for me for work, thought about MK but have settled on this one Jaeger tan tote
Will be good as a weekend bag too and I'll wear it in winter with my black coat. I like black and tan together.

Flipping' 'eck this has turned into an essay!

AmberNectarine · 09/06/2016 17:27

Yes meant to say I love those Guccis Mara - I love loafers but can't imagine how I'd wear them. I'm a heels or trainers girl.

kitty - she best hope she's a 5.5.

shopafrolic · 09/06/2016 17:41

Same here Amber - heels or trainers.
Off out tonight with some of the school mums - can't go mad as am starting my reformer Pilates course tomorrow. No idea what to wear.....

OneNightTimeMenaceStrikesBack · 09/06/2016 19:00

bernice i love those rocket heels. I keep trying with heels but feel like an elephant in them! maybe it'll come with more practice though

i am so so hot. I don't fair well in warm weather, especially when it's muggy as it makes my bones ache and my body well. my currently look is so non vogue!!

FedupNagging · 09/06/2016 19:39

Dry thought you said you were sitting on your hands last night?! They are lovely though so don't blame you. Am a bit miffed that they don't have any colour available in my size as they're a brilliant style and price.

Kitty you're right, I am swaying towards the red heels but need to be able to walk, not waddle Grin. Really pleased you've found your tan bag - it looks really stylish. Hope you had a fab week last week btw?

Amber gorgeous heels - can def see you wearing them.

Welcome Everyone, hope you stay. Great skirts especially the Whistles one.

Bernice thanks for the links, the orange are definitely the better colour. Your navy ones are sold out now and are really lovely.

I love that bag Kitty, am very tempted by it. Has been a year since I bought a new bag... I may be due one Wink. The tote is lovely too, I am really happy with my Jaeger work tote.

Shop what is reformer pilates? I'm looking into a personal trainer, need a bit of a kick start fitness wise.

HappyGirlNow · 09/06/2016 21:14
