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 :)

I'm basically 50/50 on the MU, I'll know by tomorrow morning :)

kitty I can really see that jumper on you! I don't know if it's missoni, they don't usually do such wide stripes. I had a look but couldn't find it by searching. Maybe start a thread?

Found this top on asos, which I basically had in 1998 (in lilac!), bought for when my PE class did a dance to Run DMC. I think that makes me officially old?!

you forgot me queenc!! please pm me the details. I am really looking forward to it.
huge congratulations blair nothing like a newborn.

Grrrr at your DH kitty. How annoying. No idea on the sweater unfortunately.

QueenC scratch what i said earlier about the jacket. I am cold in my trench coat and may wear a coat tomorrow.

Still dithering lib! It'll only be 3 degrees when I leave here in the morning and 12 by midday in London so I'm thinking that I won't boil too much in a coat

Kitty I"ve just done a Google and can't find that top anywhere - doesn't look like Missoni to me...... And yes GRRR at your DH.

Looks like I will be coming tomorrow Sis doesn't know when she will be discharged as she is being kept in tonight and may need blood transfusion. So will let them get settled at home which may be late tomorrow, and go down Sunday.

So looking forward to tomorrow! I'll be wearing my trench coat. Of course!

Sorry to hear you can't come either kitty and Stokey :(

Yes, I'm pretty annoyed with dh

Shop I couldn't seem to find that too either, I only though Missoni because the M looked similar but I agree it's not very Missoni looking.

Congratulations to your dsis Blair Glad it looks like you can make the mu.

Really looking forward to it, no idea what to wear will see what weather is like in the morning. We are having a dinner tonight, must be careful not to overindulge so I'm on form for tomorrow.

Sharing some recent purchases, so dull am bored writing this but filling some wardrobe gaps, jeans and white tee. Love the jeans, they are so soft but not too stretchy, wearing for first time today but feel like a comfy old favourite.

Just popping in especially to say I hope you all have a fab time time tomorrow; I'm really sad not to be able to join you. I will be looking out for the ootd roundup on Sunday morning!

Blair lovely news, congratulations to your dsis

I love The Kooples links Lib and fab loafers.

Amber those shoes are mad so perfect for you! Hope you're ok?

Mara my recent purchases are even more dull than yours: underwear definitely not linking my large smalls
swimsuit
nightshirt - was fp when I purchased!
Wellies

I fancy something new to wear to a party tomorrow night but will only have time to run into a local retail park so will have to choose from Next, M&S, H&M and TK.

Sorry to be missing out on tomorrow as well 😟 Hope you all have a great time.

Congrats to your sister blair, new borns are so tiny and as amber said, even better when they're not your own . I saw a shirt on the outnet that reminded me of a shirt I had from c&a in the late 80s/ early 90s that made me feel old

Annoying about the tennis tournament kitty but hope your DC do well.

Sorry to hear things have been a bit tough lately amber, but as dry said, 'shoes always help'!

I like those jeans mara, are they cropped on you? I'm still on the jeans hunt....have a good time tonight.

this came today. I really like it, I think it will fill that gap in my winter wardrobe of being something different from jeans jumper / skirt and jumper. In fact I might even wear it to MILs for lunch tomorrow.

Will be sorry to miss you tomorrow One and Kitty. Everyone might have turned up wearing a similar outfit to you...shame you won't be there x

Blair congrats and willl be fun wetting the baby's head tomorrow.

Nails done botched outfit sorted.

Amber love love love the shoes and just looked back for the name, garish is good isn't it

Ahem, Dry do I take it you won't miss me tomorrow?

I take it no one was impressed by my recent purchases

As an ensemble, I think they work really well fedup.

Nooo Fedup missed that you weren't coming? How will I get to KX on my own? and without sneaky final prosecco

Sorry to miss you all today. Haven't been outside but for those who haven't left yet, it's a gorgeous day here, bright too bright, hungover sunshine & feels very springlike.

Good basic purchases Mara & Fedup & like the KM dress Everyone. Ruffles are very in, a friend was wearing a denim jacket with a ruffle across it yesterday, looked very current & easy way to nail the trend.

Also love Amber's otters, hope to see a pic of otter stroking by Dry today

My Boden order came & am finally a proud owner of some man-repeller dungarees. Dh said they didn't flatter parts of my body, then elaborated that there wasn't much of a clevage view. I explained there was an opportunity for some side boob action but don't think he was convinced!

We need a picture of you in the dungarees Stokey. at DH reaction to them!

Drinking coffee with a keratin mask in my hair in an attempt to make it look vaguely civilised for the MU.

Stokey that sounds so wrong but will try my best to oblige

Ladies, such a fun afternoon - sorry for the change a table! Have a wonderful evening!

Enjoy CD Amber

Thank you all for a lovely MU. Special thanks to QueenC for organising.

Glad you ladies had a good MU. Was very sorry to miss it, especially given the lovely weather.

Lunch at MILs was ok and wore the new KM dress. I really like it and agree stokey that the ruffle detail makes it a bit more 'current'. Even got a few compliments this morning too.

I don't think my DH would get dungarees either stokey, he passes enough comments about my patterned Harem pants.

Awesome MU.
Amber you changed at the table, I'm in awe at your skill....underwear and tights without a flinch....quite incredible.
Everyone looked amazing and I feel blessed to have a group of friends who can talk for half an hour about hand bags.
My fav quote was " it's a nice handbag but hard to get your hand in" Justa

Love you lot. Such a good time. Here's to MUs [fizz]

Shout out to my fellow #lastonesstanding Blair and Lib.

Just finished up. On train home.

High fives to last women standing... In fact to all the women, so good to have a group who i can be completely shallow around and yet not judged!!! Love you all. Proper update tomorrow
