MN Vogue - vol. 72

[libertydoddle]

Summertime, and the livin' is easy...some of us are basking on beaches, others are managing the madness that is school's out but work goes on...either way we want to look chic in the heat while it lasts

Come tell us what you are wearing on these balmy days...it's friendly here

i's a piercing through a certain part of the ear dry nothing too exotic haha i would never have anything really extreme like genital piercings eww no thank you!

That sounds amazing dry. My mouth is watering.

one I don't know what a daith piercing is either!!!

I think they are a classic but only suit certain shapes and style. And all those on here that wear them can do

Aaaarrrrrgggghhhh!

Phew, I just needed a virtual scream! Now I will open the wine! We've had play dates today and dc are knackered, something has upset big dd but she won't tell me what,makes just sulky and rude. Dp aren't here yet-it's a big downfall living here on the way to Devon/Cornwall as the traffic is horrendous on motorway at this time of year. And I can't get hold of dh to see when he'll be home.

one did you have it done for migraines? It's meant to really help.
dry I love cooking like that too. Have fun.

Your menu sounds lovely Dry I love proper grown up entertaining.

QueenC traffic everywhere is horrendous at the moment. The junction at the bottom of my road has featured on Breakfast TV traffic updates every morning this week. They are repairing a railway bridge, its taken over a year so far & the completion date is Dec 2017!!!!!!!!!!!! theres signs everywhere saying TFL is investing £30 million on this bridge, sounds madness to me. No wonder the country has a cash shortage.And don't even get me started on the M25 traffic.

Today I wore my bargain Alexa for M&S dress I wore it with leggings & flat shoes. It's very comfortable & I feel quite stylish & young in it

One glad the piercing wasn't painful.

Yes, I have that dress Dream - wore it lots on holiday - I don't think it was see through - no one said anything! It is pretty shapeless though which I like.

We've had a hectic time since we got back from our hols but after tomorrow things calm down thankfully.

Just heard that dinner is ready (dh cooking) so hopefully be back later to fully catch up.

I did queenC and i'm so pleased because i haven't had headache or any sign of headache all day and i usually wake up with one! hopefully it will also cut the instances of migraine as well as i have been suffering quite a lot lately with really bad ones

One saw piercing pic. Looks good.
DH and I have been chatting about my tattoos and the fact I want another one. We may have come up with a plan that even he would be happy with.
Last night here tonight. It's gone too fast. One more day in the sun and then home. Wore white dress from last year's white party with black Dune shoes and pink clutch. Back to room early as all shattered from too much sun.

Dry that menu is making my mouth water

Queen hope your dp and dh have turned up to help you out.

One well done on the weight loss btw. Hope the piercing helps with the migraines.

My neighbour has that dress Dream. It's not see-through and looks good on her but she is tall with straight body

I love that red Bardot dress Everyone. I need to get a decent strapless bra so I can invest, but they're hard to come by as my back is very narrow. I like to think I've got good shoulders, they're quite pointy anyway!

Traffic sounded appalling tonight, heard on the radio people were waiting two hours to get out of a service station near you QueenC, hope your DP made it.

I feel drained by children and the small bit of work I've done, opening the Rose.

Dream menu sounds grown up but here is how my dinner parties normally go:

Prep everything in advance
Feel snug
Get dresses
Open prosecco

Remember ive forgotten to put the **ing veggie option in oven
Fill glasses
Laugh hysterically
Eventually serve veggie option
Dim lights
Pudding
Etc etc etc......

At approx 8.15 tomorrow night can someone please remind me to put veggie option in oven
And the garlic potatoes

Thanks Fedup and Stokey for dress feedback. I really like it & may order it anyway. If its not a going out dress it looks perfect for swanning around the house in & it's reduced to £30 so not break the bank stuff.

I like the sound of your evenings Dry set the alarm on your phone to remind you of various timings.

dry that's exactly what I'm like when I entertain. Drink and chat too much and forget all about timings, forget about nibbles in the fridge etc etc.

Oh dear, I appear to have imbibed slightly too much alcohol for the 5th night on the bounce. If anyone has a bit of liver to spare, do PM me (blood group O-).

I would like a cartilage piercing, but my last piercing ended in disaster (second attempt at navel - in a tent, at a festival - what could go wrong?) Am going to get another tattoo though - a watercolour one.

Wore the E&J dress out tonight with leopard heels plus rockstud bracelet and bag. Loved it, will definitely get a lot of wear!

Right, must go to bed as have a kids party in the morning

I'm o- too amber and surprisingly my liver function is fine so I'll spare you a bit!

It took poor dp 3.5h to travel 80miles. I eased the pain for them with wine and pimms!

I'm such a wuss that I could never get any more piercings (I have 2 holes in each ear). I would get the top of my ear done if I wasn't so afraid of pain.

Morning passes Amber a pint of water

Dry your menu for tonight sounds delicious - I do exactly the same as you Queen & Lib , drink and talk too much so forget about stuff!

Bernice loved the leopard print trainers you purchased the other day.

Justa have a lovely trip and stay safe - can't remember the ages of your dc's but when we took ours a few years ago (they were teens) we did Hard Rock Cafe then the Eiffel Tower at night and they absolutely loved the whole evening.

I have made my first A/w purchase - a batwing jumper from Jigsaw - am on iPad so will link separately.

We're out to a family lunch today and I'll be wearing the DP Bardot top again with white trousers and gigi's. Hope Bardot tops stick around for another season as I love mine and would like another.

Jigsaw jumper - love the batwing sleeves

Morning! I have a mild hangover. Currently lying in bed at hotel (minus dcs!) having water and admiring the eternity ring that dh gave me last night.

Meant to say QueenC I love that purple Hobbs top you linked for me, very me,very tempted. I don't have a top in that colour.

Amber good luck with today......

Gorgeous ring blingy hope you're having a lovely time.

Hope the party isn't too hard going amber

dry that party timing sounds like when we have friends round too. hope it goes well tonight, that menu sounds devine.

Last day here. I may cry. But at least I'll stop annoying people on Insta and FB

dry ive emailed you a 20% off code for hobbs
gorgeous blingy
Love that jumper fedup

Thank you , naughty enabler

Lovely ring Blingy - was it a complete surprise and did you cry?

You holiday looks amazing Shop so not surprised you don't want to come home.

I forgot to mention that as well as the Jigsaw knit, I picked up this Breton dress - I have been living in my s/s uniqlo breton this summer (mostly worn with stans) but I found a small hole the other day - not noticeable atm luckily.
