Love that Amber - potential Voguette sighting in the wild.

DH has organised for us to get some new tips for the exhausts on my car tomorrow, so that it'll look pretty. Turns out the place we're going is 20 mins from Bicester! Does anyone know if trying to get in at around midday on a Sunday would be a completely ridiculous idea? I've never been and always thought you had to go early to get a parking spot.

QueenC Yes Blush when my hair is long it doesn't show signs of needing a cut for ages. I don't have any split ends yet but it is feeling a bit unkempt. Hope your cut went well and glad your wrist is improving.

Shop from the dentist. He told me to do top row first so I can see a difference. After 2weeks I'll send you a pic.

Lovely day today , I knew we'd have a good July......changed out if my black slouchy sweater and put on my Madewell black sleeveless top that Linus also has from a couple of years ago.....love this top.

Drywhitethanks · 16/07/2016 20:49

Tried some of these hats the other day.......beautiful, I'd wear all of them

Drywhitethanks · 16/07/2016 20:50

OneNightTimeMenaceStrikesBack · 17/07/2016 05:43

QueenC1 · 17/07/2016 07:21

That's gorgeous dry. That reminds me that I haven't found you a dress yet-I have been looking but nothing has inspired me yet.
amber great spot of one.

for amber

Longislandicetee · 17/07/2016 07:35

Morning! Amber and One that's so cool! Grin

Dry love the green head piece. (Think you linked it twice, yes?).

Dh and I went out to dinner last night. I was so excited as he's been on a healthy eating kick for 18 months and gets antsy about the thought of all those calories.Hmm

I finally got to wear my Me & Em jumpsuit which looked great on, with my YSL Sparkly shoes which dh hates. I told him the price and I think his jaw is still hanging open. He did say I looked nice though.

QueenC1 · 17/07/2016 07:38

for blair

QueenC1 · 17/07/2016 07:51

libertydoddle · 17/07/2016 11:57

Great outfit Blingy.
DD has just told me I am 'the boringist mum in the world' Shock Grin
Apparently all I do is sit around reading the paper.

shopafrolic · 17/07/2016 12:57

I know for a fact that's not true Lib. Sometimes you drink prosecco too Grin

Kids!Hmm Sounds like my two but papers are a bit sophisticated for me

Dh has told me that he is not sure about my new hair do, which is all choppy and layers. A bit bed head like. His observations were met with an awkward silence.Grin I think he just likes me being all sleek and groomed like a show dog!

peachlife · 17/07/2016 13:29

Happy Sunday all,

The outlaws have just left here and the baby has fallen asleep. Blessed silence. Ignoring housework like a pro.

Love the jumpsuit blingy - I am going to jumpsuit it up once back to my more normal proportions. I really like them.

Hope everyone is having a good weekend and enjoying this warm weather Smile.

libertydoddle · 17/07/2016 14:36

Exactly shop Grin I am a woman of many talents!!
I want to see your new hair Blingy.
I am now supervising DD while she wraps presents for her teachers. Driving me nuts as I like to wrap neatly but she won't let me help....

Longislandicetee · 17/07/2016 17:07

Lib have sent you a selfieGrin I feel your pain. The dcs finished school about 10 days ago and I had a frenzy of present buying and cajoling the dcs to do their cards.

Thank you for the jumpsuit love. Wouldn't have occurred to me to get one without this thread, so thank you for the inspiration. And I wouldn't have bought the sparkly shoes without QueenC's bling phase!

We have had a glorious day. Currently sat in the garden eating a bowl of the most delicious berries and cherries which were grown locally while enjoying all the flowers and the aroma from the herb garden. Dh did a BBQ earlier so he's all happy.Smile

libertydoddle · 17/07/2016 18:24

Thanks blingy. Just received now. Love it! We've just had a 'phone free' afternoon at a car show - was fun!

My Zara order has arrived - quite surprised to get a Sunday delivery. This top is lovely but too small for me in Medium. I love this blouse - again I got the medium and it's fine but debating if I'd be better with the large for looser fit. I'm really pleased with the red maxi skirt. It's on me right now Smile. And the bag is great.

Everyonelovessparkles · 17/07/2016 19:50

Good bargains lib but annoying about the sizes. Amusing comments from your DD! I'm out of favour with my DD did not letting her have an ice cream because she didn't eat her dinner. Resulting in mega melt down. I felt sorry for our childless neighbours on what is s beautiful evening.

bling night out outfit sounds lovely. I've also noticed that my DH also only makes comments on my appearance when it's something he's not keen on.

Great spot between amber and one!

Hope you had a nice breakfast at the ivy cafe amber.

VivaVegas · 17/07/2016 20:35

Apologizing for going AWOL but as per usual life (or should I say work!) just gets in the way. Heading off on holiday next week like quite a few of us and looking forward to some much needed downtime.
Have made a few sale purchases but tried to get things I need/know I will wear rather than just randomly buying as I have done in the past.
grey glitter spot tshirt
Hush dress
Also got these pink sandals but also have these pink sandals due to be delivered tomorrow to see which I like best. I have a lot of black so fancy pink to brighten up!
And inspired by Shop's Dressing room sale order I ordered this American Vintage top which I love, really like the blue.
Sorry not had a chance to read and catch up properly but hoping things will start to be less busy in the run up to my holiday.
If anyone has seen any nice cotton (but not plain white) cold shoulder/off the shoulder tops, please could you let me know! Thanks

OneNightTimeMenaceStrikesBack · 18/07/2016 05:59

love that star wars clutch queenC fitting given i was at the star wars celebration yesterday Grin

it is sooooo hot and only going to get hotter, uggggh. i'll almost be glad to get home and sat back at my desk where my fan is

Drywhitethanks · 18/07/2016 07:50

GiGis are ON and staying on....it's going to be hot this week Smile

QueenC1 · 18/07/2016 10:31

vegas I think warehouse have cotton off shoulder tops.
dry so lovely to finally have sun isn't it?

Longislandicetee · 18/07/2016 11:57

Morning! I dropped the kids off at their camp this morning and we had the roof down on the car. We were bopping away to music. Now I am working from home in my back garden wearing my purple Superdry tee with Gap boyfriend shorts (Shop has them too if I recall). We have Sonos in the garden (the speakers are disguised as rocks) so listening to the radio. It's a happy day. Smile

maradesbois · 18/07/2016 13:49

Afternoon,

Snap Blingy, am working (thesis research) outside in gap boyfriend shorts too but no mi5-worthy technology here.

Still on hols, st tropez shower stuff is doing a good job at mimicking a golden glow while I am covering up with oil free factor 50.

Thanks for all the advice on eyebrow-gate friend. Have seen her since and was all good, slightly disappointingly uneventful in fact so am not going to rock boat but will be ready for anything else that may come my way.

Love the story of nearly mini-mu One and Amber

Will look at lib and Vegas links later, don't want to lose post. For white top not sure, I got a nice Marant-esque broderie one in gap but not off shoulder.

VivaVegas · 18/07/2016 15:11

Lovely weather really makes a difference even when at work, enjoyed a nice walk for my lunch break, hoping to enjoy sitting outside for a bit tonight!
