happy Grin😂 Can't believe you cracked on day 4! It is a great bag though. Working at home can make you lazy in the OOTD decisions and whilst sometimes it is nice to put comfort first, it's equally as nice to make an effort sometimes.

I was going to ask if you chose a denim dress in the end lib. I've worn mine quite a few times recently and like it as it's a good smart casual choice.

Annoying about the zips one but good for you for complaining and getting a refund. Are you feeling a bit better recently? Well done also on refinding your supergas. I like it when I rediscover an old favourite.

amber I missed your post about the belt so scrolled back. Good thinking! And a bargain as well!

dry if you think the coat teal dress will be too long, I noticed that they also did it in a petite sizing, if that would fit better?

marsha any ideas what you would like? Bags? Shoes? Clothes? Or maybe just browse the 'new in' for inspiration?

Glad you had a nice day blair.

libertydoddle · 04/10/2016 20:32

What do you mean you don't know how to buy Marsha????

Velvet supergas sound very on trend one!

Dry Grin. It's the perfect school playground coat. The perfect dress is out there - have patience my friend. Actually speaking of which, what about the Sandro dress you bought a while ago? It's gorgeous on you. And then you could spend the money instead on a fabulous bag!

Yes I need an 'in', I started looking at the knitwear section and got bored! I need to concentrate on work stuff.

Oh I really love that Fedup, if I bought that I think it would start the buying sessions again, I'd realise I need much more ; I love it

Everyone meant to say I had such bad sleep deprivation with no.2 I really feel for you, so much, how is it going?

MarshaBrady · 04/10/2016 20:34

Lib exactly, I was going to type that precisely, I don't know how to shop anymore. Then thought I might crash the thread or something Grin

libertydoddle · 04/10/2016 20:35

OMG, have just realised you can remove the strap and use it as a clutch! YAY!

AmberNectarine · 04/10/2016 20:43

In other news my cobbler told me I 'need to stop trashing' my shoes today. Apparently that sort of show is just to be put on a shelf and admired! Wouldn't that put you out of a job, mate?

HappyGirlNow · 04/10/2016 20:44

Haha lib yes marsha please do send me your credit card Wink

Can't believe I've settled down to watch Location with a diet iron bru instead of a bottle glass of wine Sad

amber glad it's gorgeous in real life, cannot wait to get it! Never ordered from Browns before - no delivery options - and can't see any info re delivery times - how long do deliveries normally take, do you know?

My pre-abstinence panic orders have been arriving..

This green lace dress is fab Much nicer in real life

Leopard print jacket and leopard print flats - not to be worn at the same time as the YSL bag obvs! Love both of them IRL.

Track sole boots Really like them!

Oversized biker jacket Love!

Maroon trousers lovely but verging on too long even with heels and I'm 5'9''

Love this cropped jumpsuit Will wear with my double-G Gucci belt...

Gold trousers

Gold blazer LOVE LOVE LOVE!!

Short floral dress - love this too!!

The good thing about winter when it comes - can wear shorter skirts and dresses that I'm too old and too lacking in the beautiful leg department to wear bare-legged in summer! Every cloud!

Had an alert on these and now in stock so ordered Allowed myself that Grin Hope they'll be nice when they come.

NOW I'M ON THE STRAIGHT AND NARROW - NO SPENDING UNTIL NOVEMBER. For definite Grin

HappyGirlNow · 04/10/2016 20:47

The YSL can be a clutch too amber ?? Grin

HappyGirlNow · 04/10/2016 20:48

everyone - I know - day 4 - poor poor show Grin 😂

HappyGirlNow · 04/10/2016 20:57

Oh and the red Office boots arrived - love them as much as the black, gorgeous in real life!

MarshaBrady · 04/10/2016 21:01

Ha ha Happy abstinence panic! Impressive Grin

libertydoddle · 04/10/2016 21:03

Evening all. Thread moves fast right now.
DF has deteriorated, he is v unwell and deliriousand has 1 to 1 nursing care. Very distressing. I will be here when I can.
The hospital made a monumental cock up with his care today too so that makes it worse.

FedupNagging · 04/10/2016 21:17

Lib the gold tweed blazer would go with so much in your wardrobe enables

Happy that's one hell of a haul - didn't you order the toga pulla's as well? love the maroon trousers and the blazer and the jumpsuit and the biker jacket....

AmberNectarine · 04/10/2016 21:19

Yes Happy - detachable strap! Arrived in less than 24h for me, so pretty good I feel!

Love those mules - I have a similar pair from Whistles that have been super useful. Also love the gold trousers. With you on the tights enabling a shorter skirt (not that I really hold back on that front anyway!)

Now planning my outfits for the rest of the week around the bag - double leoparding not a problem for me so going to wear a tulle type leopard midi skirt with a black crew neck knit and my patent Pigalles tomorrow, I think!

AmberNectarine · 04/10/2016 21:20

Oh and those boots are lovely! A lot like my Toga Pullas (which I must get out of the closet!)

AmberNectarine · 04/10/2016 21:21

Oh shop, so sorry about the flippant cross post. Sending love and strength to you and your family Flowers

OneNightTimeMenaceStrikesBack · 04/10/2016 21:22

oh shop i'm very sorry to hear your DF is so unwell. love to you all

everyone I'm still sleeping an awful lot but feel a bit better mentally than i have for a while which is something at least. Who knew being vitamin deficient could take such a toll! i keep being nagged at to eat my fruit and veg but quite honestly, most of my diet IS fruit and veg as im not a big carb or meat eater so kinda redundant advice really, still, with the supplements from the dr, levels should be climbing now.

so much bag love at the minute! i'm still planning to save for a really 'nice' bag though have no idea what i really want right now, I just have sort of mini browses and then get a bit overwhelmed by choice!

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 04/10/2016 21:23

Oh shop that's not good to hear. Thinking of you all Flowers

Happy if you could never shop in any other shops again except Zara and YSL for bags, you would be fine wouldn't you?! Grin

shopafrolic · 04/10/2016 21:27

I've got the voucher too Marsha - wanted some Toga Pullas but they have sold out of the leather

AdoraBell · 04/10/2016 21:34

I've taken the plunge Shock will post pic of belt when Burberry deliver,

Everyonelovessparkles · 04/10/2016 21:55

That is some haul happy! Are you on first name terms with all the delivery people in your area?! Grin

Glad you're feeling a bit better one.

Thanks marsha. The last couple of nights have been better. He's still waking but going back to sleep easily so I don't have to sit cuddling him for ages / going back several times / listen to him crying etc

Oh shop. I'm so sorry to hear about your DF. Thinking of you Flowers

HappyGirlNow · 04/10/2016 22:01

Aw no shop so sorry your DF is so unwell Sad
