Just casually dropping in to say 'I'VE GOT STRICTLY AUDIENCE TICKETS!'

As you were.

AmberNectarine · 04/11/2016 19:50

Welcome Very. I have been looking at those shoes myself, love the design, but I'm a bit of a stickler for leather shoes. I almost bought the No.21 originals over the summer - may yet get them for the party season! I liked a lot of the Modern Rarity stuff when I was in store recently.

AmberNectarine · 04/11/2016 19:51

And obviously very many happy returns to our birthday girls. And what a coincidence that you're both turning 21!

HappyGirlNow · 04/11/2016 20:30

Happy Birthday shop and linus

bernice I ordered some stuff end of October too Grin

Ordered this but it's not arrived yet.. and these boots which have arrived and are gorgeous! And a few other things.. I'll link later..

I didn't like the white Lucky Charm either - they seemed more of a dove grey than a white to me.. just wasn't taken with them at all.

HappyGirlNow · 04/11/2016 20:40

very I have those M&S shoes in the black, really like the bronze!

shopafrolic · 04/11/2016 21:04

WelcomeVery stick around, it's nice here
Amber tell me you have cancelled all plans and are actually going?!!!
Thanks for all the birthday love. Had a row with DH for not wrapping my presents, then had lunch with my folks and DF nearly choked on a piece of bread so it has been a little stressy. But I've had lots of lovely gifts and been super spoilt by friends and family.
Christine and The Queens was awesome last night. Happy Shop
Love to my birthday twin Linus

libertydoddle · 04/11/2016 21:07

Welcome Very. Love that dress. What a pain about the &other stories stuff. I have found the quality there a bit rubbish too.

amber Envy I don't even watch Strictly but I imagine it would be a great night.

happy the colour of those boots is fab.

HappyGirlNow · 04/11/2016 21:21

amber Strictly would be AMAZING!

VivaVegas · 04/11/2016 21:49

Happy birthday Shop and Linus !

VeryPunny · 04/11/2016 22:11

Thanks for the welcome, and happy birthday to the birthday girls. Not at all jealous about the Strictly tickets, oh no, not me....

justasecond · 04/11/2016 23:14

Happy birthday shop and linus hope you both had fabulous days!!Smile Cake Wine

Merriboo · 05/11/2016 07:13

Belated happy birthday wishes Shop and Linus
OMG!! Amber how fab! Envy👏 Please tell all and let me live it vicariously through you. I love strictly!
Hi Very I like those mules too. Haven't seen them IRL, how do they fit?

VeryPunny · 05/11/2016 08:02

Merriboo The mules fit nicely, although I do have M&S shaped feetGrin Their size 6 always fits me perfectly and the mule strap is snug enough to keep them firmly in place (well, at least around the house).

QueenCobalt · 05/11/2016 08:44

amber I am so jealous Envy Envy
Happy belated birthday shop and linus. Who's next?
Welcome very

VivaVegas · 05/11/2016 09:17

Love the blue/grey dress Dry, really nice.
Thanks for the Baukjen link Bernice really like it and would have ordered the grey if it wasn't out of stock. The black is pre order for 16/12 which is a bit late.
Love those boots Happy wasn't thinking of long boots this year but love the colour.
I think it's somebodies birthday today isn't it? Followed by me tomorrow.

VivaVegas · 05/11/2016 09:25

Agh posted too soon!
Welcome Very lovely dress, really nice.
Amber when are you going to Strictly? Will be fab!
Out tonight so get to where these beauties, thanks to Queen for linking them way back and I think you have the Office ankle strap ones I first looked at before I as these!
Ordered a few starry things from Gap, will link later.

HappyGirlNow · 05/11/2016 10:32

bernice

I have to confess. I've been naughty. Sad

I've been avoiding online shopping etc but this beauty popped up in Facebook ads! Perfect for a Christmas night out and 20% off. It was love ❤️

I'm sorry, no more spends for November apart from YSL bag if I can't hold out till December

Can I disable FB ads?????

FedupNagging · 05/11/2016 11:30

Amber I'm so Envy. I've applied for tickets for strictly and bake off for the last few years and not heard a peep sob

Waves to newbie Very, love the dress - it's definitely a style I'd wear and the shoes are a fab colour.

This - I love the colour on this

Fedup you are such a star for organising the MU, Thanks Looking forward to it!

Bernice yes a month and a half so far, it's good, really nice people on the whole and have made some friends. We have a good laugh. And the actual place gets a lot of good work in which is great. I do need some new work clothes however! Will be updating. How is your new job? Do you like it?

Shop, QueenC and Linus happy birthday!! I got onto other social media but meant to post it here too. [fizz], Cake Thanks

I took a pic of the scarf but the gold was hard to see, so I found a link here Dries Van Noten. It is very plush, I do love it.

MarshaBrady · 05/11/2016 12:17

Lib that is funny! I like your shopping though, you keep the right stuff!

Welcome Very, stick around

Dry I love those dresses, did you decide on which one? may have missed it

shopafrolic · 05/11/2016 12:28

That's a beaut Marsha

kittyhello · 05/11/2016 15:04

Hello

Sorry I've been MIA, life got in the way, have only purchased a black blazer in my absence, exactly the same as my navy one, and although I feel all Halo my wardrobe desperately needs a AW17 update but I don't know what. Definitely no more Tippis.

I also wanted to check that my name hadn't fallen off the list for MU!

I keep seeing ads for Sosandar on fb and wanted to know if anyone had bought from here, that's when I knew I had to come on here as I didn't know anyone in rl to ask Grin

FedupNagging · 05/11/2016 17:29

Thanks Marsha - I've had help from the lovely Mara too. Fab scarf - it is the sort of colour and pattern that will go with just about anything.

Kitty don't worry, you're definitely still on the MU list! I've not heard of Sosander. At first glance there are some nice pieces.

We have friends over for dinner tonight so I've been in the kitchen all afternoon doing a Delia Grin Off for a shower now and then will crack open a pre prandial Wine. Oote is smart black BR crops , zara silk blouse in pinks and purples, silver jewellery and probably silver gigi's as we're indoors. I've fallen off heels too many times rushing around the kitchen slighty drunk Hmm so generally stick to flats.

even though I don't buy many clothes I have spent many years of being Skinter than a skint thing and thinking "one day". Today I bought this beauty 😊
