MN Vogue Vol. 74

[FedupNagging]

Time for chunky knits, bobble hats and boots, please come and join in with all your autumn fashion - high end or high street, we love it all.

It's only taken a few years, but finally we get amazing J crew discounts like the USA do! 40% off everything at the mo... kitty surely you need another Tippi or 3?

OMG Blair I'm on it

On a serious note re: your house, hope this is the last of your house woes, they say things come in threes! You've definitely had your fill of it recently.

Blair where are you seeing jcrew discount? I can't find

It was in an email, but I just realised I've read it wrong because it says "For the first time EVER: 40% off your purchase" but in the small print it's just items marked "Extra 40% off with code HOLIDAY" but unhelpfully the email doesn't link directly to items which are included. Sorry!

Blair no, it's just 2 roads down from where we are now, so still no distance from TK! Hope your house dramas are over now - who needs that aggravation?!

DH and kids seeing The House tomorrow. I've basically told him he's buying it for me, so he'd be a brave man to express negativity.

Have hardly had time to consider Strictly! What will I wear?!

Blingy hope you're resting up as advised by, er, everyone!

Blair you're not having much fun either but as Kitty says, hopefully this is the end of your run of bad luck.

We had a long power cut early this morning and the place I'm working in this week has no heating so outside was the warmest place for me today

Amber exciting news re the house move so fingers crossed it's all systems go for you. Love the SJP shoes btw.

Mara fab coat and really love the sleeves. Good news on the bag front so really hope you post a picture.

As promised I'm wearing the pencil skirt (h&m) and jumper (BR) look today but given the heating situation, or lack thereof, , went for knee length boots instead of ankle. Also wearing very thick tights and a silk thermal polo under the jumper.

I didn't realise its LR too! She looks great,

amber how exciting about your new home,

blair, sounds terrible,!

mara that's a gorgeous coat, its a classic that you will be able to wear for many years,

I received the NAP code too,as well as many others,but unfortunately there is nothing that I really really like, was thinking about a vanessa Bruno dress, but not too sure about it, it's a cape dress, and have no idea what sort of coat to wear over it .

But I did get these GV loafers, unfortunately the are not on sale, but i so love them and the black one on NAP didnt look that impressive, these are just gorgeous!

WOOOAAAHHHHH Amber have I missed something? Are you going to Strictly? exciting news about the house tomorrow for the first time ever, I haven't watched any Strictly at all, must catch up.

I'm eating Christmas pud....remember how much I love it? Christmas has well and truly started here.

Crappy weather again. Hair flat. But new foundation holding up well.

Blair after this you won't have any other house disasters, you've had your quota .

DS has at last and miraculously passed his driving test. Freedom for me just has huge G + T to celebrate

Just checked tha small print for th J Crew 40% off - It says only in th US and Canada, boo!

Erm, YEAH I'm going to Strictly. On Saturday! I said to DH today, it's all too much and I'm just too excited. I am already planning the housewarming/DH's promotion party. I need to calm down.

At last dry? didn't he just turn 17? Took me, ahem, six attempts.

Oh those are lovely lara. I wore burgundy velvet courts today, felt very luxurious!

Amber sparkles essential, how exciting!
DS failed spectacularly on his first attempt twit

Blair try FESTIVE as the code on the j crew website (sorry haven't been following so you may have that already).

Amber sounds great about the house. When we moved into our current home I told dh I had to have it. I love the house so much, best decision ever. I think i told you at the MU but many congratulations to Mr Amber. It's a massive massive achievement and he should enjoy the high of it for at least 6 months.

Laras shoes definitely fall in the look lovely on others, no way I could pull it off. I may hastily change my mind if I am on crutches for longer than a week.

I have an anecdote from the weekend for you....Dh and dsis are getting ready to cart me off to hospital. I am in agony with the pain. But I insist dh has to grab my comb so I can brush my hair.

Oh dear Very that means I misread the J crew email even more badly than I had thought! That'll teach me...

Very exciting news on the house Amber. I hope DH loves it too.

Only discount I have used so far is the Boden 30% - mostly for some bits and pieces for DD. I added this top in the green to the basket for me - have a few meetings which turn into drinks over December so thinking it would work for those tucked into my trusty M&S leather skirt.

Blair I had to hunt high and low on the website to find the exact T&Cs, so don't fret. I do really want the star tippi (as per this thread passim, can't remember who has it) and that lace skirt in black. DH would have conniptions though...

amber what I really want to know is do you have you to sign a secrecy agreement to not blab the results?

Blair has the star tippi

I'm not sure if you have to sign but you definitely have to agree.

I'm so about your strictly tickets Amber. I will live vicariously through you watch for you in the audience. I missed the bit about your dh's promotion so have no idea but congrats anyway.

How Long will you be on crutches for Blingy?

Well done to masterdry, hope you've got him booked for all your Xmas nights out Dry.

Went to the theatre tonight but wished I'd stayed home and watched the jungle it was tedious to say the least

iPad is playing up big time so will check out Lara & Libs links tomorrow

blingy scruffy as i can be at times, i'd have been asking for my comb too! hope you're feeling better soon lovely

i haven't bought anythign new for christmas, we've too much on with getting the flat sorted to have planned much socialising tbh but i have a sparkly thread tartan dress for christmas day so i have that and i have plenty of clothes if we do go anywhere at short notice!

Yes Very it's me with the star Tippi. It's gorgeous, I haven't worn it yet though. Thanks Blingy for the alternative code!

Enjoy the house visit Amber. Btw, Gorgeous Couture have reopened their outlet site, I am sitting on my hands!

OOTD is navy ribbed turtleneck with very old stretchy ruched black H&M pencil skirt, with obi belt hiding the waistband.

oh no Blair! Really sorry but Lib emailed me last night to say that the code didn't work.
