I've got a similar Knomo bag SoYo. I like it because it enables me to carry my laptop and papers and then a fabulous little bag for my essentials!

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 03/10/2016 21:03

Right back atcha Amber and Mara! To be honest everyone I've met from MNV is gorgeous and totally fab. :)

Of course I appreciate your opinion on the trench mara! I'm hoping to go for a browse around Regent St tomorrow, may not buy anything but right now I'm thinking that instead of buying a Burberry trench, I can afford all of the other things on my wishlist and have a J crew splurge in NYC. Much more pleasurable!

Lib I always think your outfits sound great too, and I'm sure they look just as good. You should do headless OOTD pics for us Grin

I bought DH a jumper from Boden's very first catalogue - it was a lovely soft orange, Shetland fine rib. I bought myself some nice things from subsequent catalogues too - I remember a brown linen skirt that I loved. That was in the days when he got his chums to model, and he gave their occupation as well as their name.

Longislandicetee · 03/10/2016 21:29

Evening all! I went and bought the bracelet today. The bigger one was too chunky on my wrists so I went for the smaller one. But....I had already told dh that I was spending the money for the bigger one. So, when I got home, i used some of the money I had saved and ordered the Diptyque advent calendar, the Alexander McQueen dress and a Rails Shirt. Grin

justasecond · 03/10/2016 21:33

Love that bag amber Envy
Lib your outfit does sound lovely. I remember that Hobbs coat, such a gorgeous colour. I have a similar colour coat from whistles from a few years ago that was £££ sitting in the cupboard, must get it out this year
fed up those trousers are lovely. I would like some that colour.

My oot was black j brand slim jeans, black cos silk shirt, ancient leopard print cardigan from warehouse, burgundy cos coat and different leopard print Russell and Bromley loafers which are almost worn through now.

Keep forgetting to say well done on the new job bernice hope it is going well.

Blair that md trench looks very nice. I can't believe Burberry trenches have gone up to that much now Shock I'm not sure how the outlet ones differ but maybe worth a look?

I have ordered these from uterque loafers by now I am sure you are all bored to death of me going on about loafers!
I saw someone wearing these on insta gucci loafers love them, had not considered silver loafers before but they look amazing.
Looking forward to the mu and seeing familiar faces again and meeting SOyo, Viva, Everyone! Hope I didn't miss anyone
Well done on the weightloss mara!

HappyGirlNow · 03/10/2016 21:41

OH. MY. GOD.

amber I LOVE THAT BAG Shock Sad

I'm now crying into my soft drink.

I NEEEEED THAT BAG!!!

justasecond · 03/10/2016 21:42

ooh amazing blingy that bracelet is just beautiful, hope we will see it at the next mu!
love the shirt and dress too.

libertydoddle · 03/10/2016 21:47

Wow Blingy!!! That's doing it in style!!! I am Envy at the bracelet. Perfect for you.

Justa those Uterque loafers look lovely and the Gucci silver ones are fab. Looking forward to hearing what they are like.

Amber forgot to say earlier that I love the YSL bag.

Has been a few days of seriously swoon worthy links.

Mara, wow well done on the weight loss, that's a great achievement! You're right, how Dh thinks he knows what's lurking in our tardis of a dressing room is beyond me. I don't even know!!

Blair, go for maximising the goodies and park the Burberry Trench for a while! And look away if I get itGrinI also think you're very pretty.

Amber, love those boots!! I was actually looking at them last weekend. And love the bag.

SoyYo, if you get the right size with the toothpick jeans, they're amazing.

Happy, you're a riot!

Shop, been thinking of you all day hon. Xxx

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 03/10/2016 21:53

It so has! justa we're not sick of loafers, if you're on the hunt for something it has to be perfect. (Now I can go on about trenches!) I'm really happy with the quality of my Uterque shoes so hope you love yours.

Blingy amazing!

Happy you are so funny Grin

Longislandicetee · 03/10/2016 21:54

Actually I have a question about the bracelet. I don't have my hands on it yet. The one I linked is in white gold and I am having it bespoke made in platinum. I also have a choice either have all the little flowers covered in diamonds or every other one as it is on the link I posted. What do people think?

QueenCobalt · 03/10/2016 21:59

bling, I love that you don't buy that much but when you do, you go for it Grin.
Kinky boots amber
Welcome back kitty and blair.

I am absolutely gutted to be missing the mu. I'm seeing friends and I know I'll have a fab time but I'll still be sad not to be in London.

I bought and returned this coat. Absolutely love it but the 10 struggled across my boobs and then 12 was just too big. And although I wish I'd bought a grey coat instead of navy last year, I can see why I didn't as navy looks so much better. So after all that I think I've decided I don't need a grey coat after all....

QueenCobalt · 03/10/2016 22:03

blingy I'd stick to every other one.
justa, blair is right-we never get bored round here when it comes to discussing clothes/shoes/bags/jewels
dry I can understand your panic . I was so happy to find the right dress that makes me feel amazing. Fashion fate will play its hand and find you something.

kittyhello · 03/10/2016 22:20

Amber 7 pairs of otk boots wow you must REALLY love them Grin I haven't ventured into otk boots. I think I'm too short for them.

Blingy what a gorgeous bracelet, the Dyptique advent calendar is very cool too.

Love both of those loafers Justa the silver ones were much nicer than I imagined.

Mara well done on the weight loss

Bernice belated congrats on your new job

Belated welcome and hello to SeaRabbit

Queen shame you'll be missing the MU Sad

Lib forgot to comment on your new coat, I have a practical coat for winter, keeps me warm and dry on the school run.

AmberNectarine · 03/10/2016 22:47

kitty I just trying to avoid spending £1200 on the two pairs I really wanted. Fail. Moral of that story is get the ones you really want in the first place!

happy I thought that you might! Sorry!

blingy you just had to outdo me, didn't you? Grin Seriously though, gorgeous buys and very well deserved - don't you just love bonus season?! I think every other flower, just a shade more interesting, IMO. I have a Rails dress and love wearing it - super soft (and will look great with the OTKs now I think of it).

Blair have you considered the Burberry outlet (Bicester or Hackney) - they have a lot of classic styles for c. £800. Might be worth investigating when you're ready? I left my last trench in a club also left my Chanel in a bar last week, but got it back so probably not worth the investment for me!

QueenC - that coat is SO you! Could you get the 12 altered?

libertydoddle · 03/10/2016 22:52

Blingy I think every second flower for the diamonds too. It's so beautiful.

Shame about the coat QueenC. It's very chic.

Kitty practical winter coat is a must and dispenses with the need for umbrellas!

office has come up trumps might go try them tomorrow on the way home. I already have them in pink and know they are super comfortable.

Longislandicetee · 03/10/2016 23:29

I agree with you all. Every other one it is. I chose all over but had 2nd thoughts when I got home. Thank you! So that will save me £1,400 ....what shall I do with that money?Wink

QueenC that coat is gorgeous! Such a pity it doesn't fit.

Justa, lovely loafers. Not usually a fan of loafers but I like those!

Amber, thank you and sorry. If it's any comfort to you your boots soooo winGrin

AdoraBell · 04/10/2016 00:19

Love that bracelet Blingy

I bought 3 pairs of jeans today, just standard issue Levis, no pennies for anything fancy atm. I am lusting over a Burberry belt though, and trench coat but that is a while off.

SoyYo · 04/10/2016 08:10

Morning!
blingy that bracelet is exquisite. Lucky you!

QueenC really like that coat, such a great style!

justa great silver loafers, I love a bit of silver on my feet too, hope they are as nice in real life

Happy I feel your pain Grin

QueenCobalt · 04/10/2016 08:23

amber it would probably be easier to get my boobs chopped off rather than alter the 12 as it was too big all over. I may start stalking you and collecting all your items that you lose on a night out Grin.
justa I love silver shoes!
lib forgot to say too that I like that coat.

AmberNectarine · 04/10/2016 10:24

Sent DH to T2 Gucci at Heathrow this morning (at 6am) to try and get me a belt. Sold out in my size EVERYWHERE apparently. Was sad, then had flash of inspiration and now this is on the way. Super cheap by comparison too (and I love gold!)

maradesbois · 04/10/2016 10:42

Morning!

Wish dh's bonus time was as exciting as blingy and amber's! Love the boodles bracelet and good thinking in the platinum, hate it when white gold gets a yellow tinge .

We need you at the mu Happy Grin, come on!

Showed dh my ghost dress & he loves it, pleasantly surprised by price so thinking on my feet à la blingy I swiftly added that with the money I've saved going under budget am getting shoes at which point he helpfully pointed out shoes not necessary as you couldn't even see my feet Confused. Gold sandals will be purchased nonethless, am on the lookout.

justa love the silver loafers. My dsis has same in red, think dry does too actually.

Am wearing my red Gucci slippers again today with grey ts skinnies, navy petit bateau jumper with gold shoulder buttons, APC trench and navy goyard tote.
