Mumsnet Vogue - vol 77 - the Spring trends edition

[shopafrolic]

Join us to talk all things fashion and beauty. The clocks go forward next Sunday (who's bright idea was it to organise that on Mother's Day?!). Longer days and hopefully some sunshine - we're dying to get our ankles out.
All welcome :)

Oh how lovely Blair :) Can we claim him / her as our first Vogue baby?
QueenC is MU organiser Dream so will leave her to PM
No fashion news here but I have picked up my new car :)

Oh how exciting Blair! DH's bro and his wife had their first a few months ago - new babies are lovely (esp when they're not your responsibility!)

Life has been a bit gloomy lately here. Won't go into detail here but will probably offload at MU. To cheer myself up, I ordered these sensible shoes! Arrived today and I LOVE them!

Need to think about a MU outfit. Am dithering over to wear something I can jazz up for evening or to do a full change (going to see Craig David with DH). Will prob go with latter option as want to wear a slutty dress to cheer DH up 😀

Also, what's the MU plan - did I miss a PM?

Oh Amber sorry to hear about your tough week...but I do find shoes a great tonic. Slutty outfit at MU would be funny esp worn with lobster shoes

Amber and dream i have PM'ed you details for Saturday just in case QueenC isn't about.

Great shoes Amber.

Blair i hope everything is going well for your sister. So exciting.

Thanks lib - sure I already knew that but couldn't find the message for the life of me! Also happens to be an incredibly convenient location for me (can get changed at the office!)

shop it's a girl. No news yet! I bet it happens while I am asleep.

Amber sorry to hear about crappy week. At least you have a fun weekend to look forward to.

Oh and I am still waiting for my belt delivery! and I bet everyone starts wearing Chanel belts now that Kate M wore one. They are even more crazy money though.

Waves to Linus :)

Lib great loafers, you already know they'll go with lots of your outfits.

I love my Gucci belt but it is TINY (age 8-10) so I can't do big lunches in it! Will be worth it when it arrives Blair.

I wore my Gucci collar necklace and zebra print Gucci heels with a white shirt and bright pink trousers. Possibly a bit loud for the office, but it's hard to be too glum in pink trousers. I am embracing colour at the moment - think it's a knee jerk reaction to the Spring!

Sorry dream and amber, I've just pm'd you both. I texted loads of people and then forgot that I don't have all your numbers and needed to PM you!! Hope I haven't forgotten anyone else??. I had a list somewhere but have lost it....

Yeah, yeah - you were freezing me out. Well, you'll have to try harder than that! 😜

No way amber, you're my aperol spritz buddy!

Londoners, what's the weather like there? Forecast still says 13 degrees for Saturday but it's like mid winter here at the moment that I just can't quite believe it'll be that warm. Don't know which coat to wear....

It's brisk but not freezing. If you're going to be in and out of shops/on trains I wouldn't over dress.

Baby has arrived! I'm an auntie! can't wait to meet her! She is just perfect.

QueenC It's actually been really cold here too, and windy. I know it's meant to be much nicer at the weekend. I really hope i can be there for a bit!

i'm really sorry to disappoint but i won't be able to make the MU now as i've come down with tonsillitis and feel rotten. Gutted as i was so looking forward to it

huge congratulations to your sister blair make sure to get plenty of squishy yummy baby squidges when you see them

Congratulations blair. . Hope to see you for a bit on Saturday. I'll be around until about 7.45.
one that's a shame. Hope you feel better soon.

Congratulations Blair that is so exciting.

Thanks for the PM Lib & QueenC

Sorry that I won't get a chance to meet you One get better soon.

I love the sound of your work outfit Amber

No idea what to wear. At the moment I'm sat here with heating on full blast, it's freezing.

Oh one what a shame. I was looking forward to seeing you again. Hope you feel better soon.

Congratulations Blair. How exciting for all your family.

QueenC it's a bit chilly at the moment but I'm in sheer tights today and trench coat and have wristwarmers and a scarf first thing but they are off within 20 mins. You'll be fine in a jacket. Just have a scarf and socks in your handbag for the train journey.

Oh One I was looking forward to catching up on how you are finding London life - get well soon

Blair congratulations :)
Am looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow - remind us of the final list QueenC?

Thanks everyone. She is completely gorgeous and I can't wait for snuggles. My sister is probably going to be in hospital until tomorrow, so we are going to wait and see what happens re visit, it might be Sunday.

One oh no. Really hope you feel better soon.

I haven't even had a chance to think about potential MU outfit! Oh dear.

LOL - did anyone else notice what Amber's new shoes are called?

Congrats Blair and to your sister too.

Sorry to hear you are under the weather One - get well soon.

And sorry you have had a tough time Amber - sounds like the MU will come at a good time for you.

I love Aperol spritz!

Blair what lovely uplifting news, big congrats to your ds and her oh, newborns are adorable

Amber for your tough time.

I'm also going to have to pull out of the MU (d)h has booked dc onto a tennis tournament tomorrow unbeknown to me until this week.
Grr.

Have been working loads hence my absence on here and was looking forward to a catch up and some Regent St shopping. Wanted to try some shoes from JCrew, will link if/when I buy them, still toying with the idea atm.

Anyway does anyone know where I can buy this jumper? Is it Missoni?

yellow and grey/blue stripe with the M logo worn by the nanny/PA you may need to page/down for the photos

I need new uplifting clothes that make me smile after spending a winter in drab neutrals.

Bernice - I did. They are a bit garish to be fair! What do you reckon, dry?

Oh no kitty, that's a shame.
So final list I think is...
Me
Shop
Dry
Lib
Sleep
Dream
Amber
Mara
Marsha
Blingy?? I think
Blair possibly???
Stokey??? Not sure whether she can or not. I'll text her.

As I said I've lost my list so apologies if I've missed you off!

Still not sure on coat/jacket. It's bitter here this morning and I'll be leaving at 7.30. My jacket has bracelet length sleeves and I don't have wrist warmers so I may freeze. It may have to be my peacoat.

Oh, meant to say that there's an ant brexit march on tomorrow. It's from park lane and goes through trafalger square I think so just be aware that some stations may be busy.
