MN Vogue vol 70

[FedupNagging]

So summer is around the corner probably and we're looking forward to crops, short sleeved tops and flipflops

Come and tell us all about your summer purchases, high street or high end, we love it all.

Continued from Here

Ugh, this warm and wet weather is playing havoc with my hair - makes no difference whether or not I straighten it, it still looks like the hair bear bunch

Hope you make it on Sat Amber

Poor dd Lib and poor you - think you better have some chocolate too! I remember stabbing ds3's forehead with nail scissors once whilst cutting his fringe . In my defence, he was a MASSIVE pita in the hairdressers and I couldn't face it!

Like the pink stans Viva and forgot to say yesterday Shop love the shoes.

Absolutely no fashion news whatsoever - hoping to make some purchases on Saturday though.

Marsha has your delivery arrived yet?

Gosh poor you Amber. My poor dd is suffering at the moment with allergies. The wonderful school nurse has called me both yesterday and today to give me an update on how she was doing during the school day.

Lib, poor you. It happens.

Amber I had a similar thing with a fav cheapo necklace, was v sad as I love it, decided to brave it one last time and it was fine. Don't give up just yet. Great that you can make it to the MU.

Can anyone with blue/white legs recommend nude tights that are really nude and not a little bit darker than blue/white? Got a hole in mine today and felt self conscious all day bit loads of lovely comments about my skirt.

Am now thinking MU outfit might be something I feel very comfy in ....Skinnies and flats perhaps although I suppose you're expecting dress and heels

Fedup sorry about your hair, must be such a pain.

DH is away until Saturday thought we were going to see more if him so am going for the pre summer grooming fest and have been entertained by my DCs daughter been ditched by first BF who published a pros and cons list round the school about why he should, bastard, honestly bloody teenagers.....it's ok because she is currently composing a pop song for music GCSE and I wouldn't like to be him when it's performed......that's my girl and DS has been describing his French Assistant "all boobs, fags and voluptuousness MUM, such a French stereotype!" ..... Bloody hell, it's all go chez Dry

lib I did similar to DS when he was 5mo, gashed his face with my engagement ring. I felt AWFUL. He seems to have survived

Am trying to book a holiday. It's so hard. Every time I think I've found the one I read something off putting on tripadvisor.

hello yes! It is all here, in a very big bag.

I am so undecided. I sway from thinking I should send it all back, to keeping some of it, then the list grows again.

This AV skirt not sure

Equipment dress, inspired by Mara

These for an away day this week in the country Hunter

skirt maybe too girly

Quite like this red Marc jumper

This yellow t as I like yellow ts

Probably going back shorts too much

And tshirt Zoe Karssen

Finding it really hard, if you had to pick one or two things (or none!) for me to keep which would you pick?

Your ds is growing up fast Dry

Amber you'll make it to the MU

Mara I love the APC jacket.

Am I the only one who doesn't own Stans? I'd be s nightmare with white trainers. They just look so pristine.

Who bought a Grey Marcie a few months back? I'm lusting after a mini one but need to know if I can fit my Kindle Voyage in it. I keep ordering tan bags but they're not doing it for me. Just ordered a Fossil Harper cross body bag which is lovely but I really want a mini Marcie.

Marsha - AV skirt, MBMJ jumper and yellow tee, I think.

Kitty love that vote of confidence!

I really want to come but I do feel a bit guilty because I've hardly seen DH lately due to hours/travel. HOWEVER, MUs are special events and Linus is coming from afar. Hmmmm.

In uninteresting fashion news I took delivery of my third Boden 50s cardigan today. Not high fashion but the best fitting, most flattering cardigan I've found - cropped and nipped in at the waist which is what I need. Perfect for over work dresses.

Look dry, they've done a bright version of our dress

Amber completely agree re trip advisor. 90% excellent, then 10% will say rubbish, avoid and arg start again. I got in a big loop with it all. yes you should come to the MU!

Mara love the Marant jacket and APC cardi very much.

Kitty yes to a mini Marcie in grey

it was me kitty I am not sure it would fit a kindle voyage ( i just googled it!) it was a really gorgeous bag but I could only really get in a small wallet phone and keys. Instead, I got a bigger marcie pre-loved and I kept the disco instead which I am using everyday at the moment and is a much more practical size. Maybe try ordering from somewhere with free del and returns to try it out at home?
Marsha all lovely but I really like the joseph skirt, red jumper and the yellow t.
love the jacket mara
Feeling bored with all my footwear at the moment. Having got rid of about 10 pairs of various shoes and boots I think I can justify a new pair, still dithering over which loafers. I seem to have become very fussy in my old age!
still not sure what to wear to the mu

Ive seen that dress irl amber and it's lovely.
marsha red jumper, ŷellow tee and hunters
kitty I don't have stans
dry I'm not sure why but I'd be shocked to see you in jeans and flats. Is everyone going really casual?

Oh and in answer to the nude tight question, the answer is no, ive never found any the right colour.
Also meant to say that kitty, didn't justa or mara get a mini marcie and it was tiny. Or am I getting confused?

queen I will be in jeans, flats and a shirt of some sort.
dry I found some excellent ahem, popsocks in lindex in the colour "light skin" you honestly can't see them on at all. My legs and feet are very white but I am still probably slightly darker than you.

MBMJ jumper and yellow tee Marsha and possibly AV skirt.
Hunters seem a waste of money? Where are you going?
Back tomorrow. Night all.

Thanks Justa for that. Just as I feared. Back to the drawing board.

Marsha ZK tee, yellow tee and Hunters.

Amber I missed the word "hope" wasn't demanding that you will go to the ball

I was erring on the side of casual for mu. Skinnies, flats etc

So Queen just us 2 Stan less.

No Stans here either!

Love the APC cardigan mara

lib we've all done things like that! I once snipped DS's finger whilst cutting his nails.

marsha if I'm really honest none of your Outnet order screams Marsha to me. Maybe return everything and put the money towards something you really want?

dry your DD's ex bf sounds like an arse. Is she doing a Taylor Swift composing her song.

Attempt no 2 at falling asleep...

Thanks all. The mark has faded yes, I checked when she was asleep.

Marsha red jumper and ZK t.

dry at DD's now ex BF. What a jumped up, nasty, little shit!

For MU I will probably wear my brown leather skirt (again, but I love it), flats, not sure about top, maybe Zara silk shirt.

Morning all. Lib I do stuff like that all the time. DS is always telling me off Hope it's all forgotten this morning.
Marsha what have you decided? Linus makes a good point.....
Linus when do you fly? Are you arriving Friday or Sat? Will be so lovely to catch up.
Had a lovely chat with Sleep last night about the new diet amongst other things. It's ok.... I can drink on Saturday. PHEW.

marsha I kind of agree withnlinus although I do really like the red jumper for you. I said the hunters as I really love mine and find them comfortable to walk miles in if needed.

Despite the fact I'll be wearing jeans im worried I'll be overdressed onnSaturday in shoes rather than stans . Hate being overdressed.

Sorry *QueenC^ have pulled myself together , no jeans on Saturday
I like that dress Amber , the colour would look ace on you .
Have to check links tonight

shop I am landing late on Friday evening so I'll be going straight to my hotel. Can't wait to meet everyone again even though I might be in a foul mood as my periods are about to start

Talking of which, I slept so badly last night as I kept waking up sweating like a pig. If this is a taste of what menopausal hot flushes are like, I am not looking forward to it!

Thanks everyone. I agree with all comments!

Linus agree they are all nearly there, but not quite, which is making it harder to decide.

So I might keep the Marc jumper, will ponder the yellow t for weekends, as only £26 and low on ts.

Will wear the Hunters today, Shop to a big country house type thing with activities. It's more a nod to the country dress code, I have very little. Am wearing a check shirt from dh and the Hunters make it work a bit more, and were only £33.

Will send everything else back, I do like the Joseph skirt, but think it's not quite right for me, so final try on then will probably send it back too.

That does mean I will be in something samey on Saturday, you'll have to excuse that

Linus will be ace to see you!

Morning!

Stokey love your stans, they are the ones I nearly bought last week. Still think they are fab but tempted to go for all white for versatility.

Yesterday I saw 3 different girls wearing khaki flowing trenches, really thin material, could almost be oversized coat dress, good for this warm but wet weather. Does anyone know the sort of thing I'm taking about? Thought they looked really good.

Ootd is cheap gap jeans self-customised and armor-lux Breton. Am turning into a bit of a scruff, need to up my game for sat!

Marsha I think yellow t and red jumper look good for you. Hunters are always useful too.

lib poor you but am sure dd has forgotten already. I once dropped ds off my shoulders onto the pavement when he was little.

Dry god I would hate to be a teen today with social media but sounds like dd is a chip off the old block and can handle herself.
