Mumsnet Vogue Volume 78

[DryWhiteagainW]

We have dusted down our Gigis and boyfriend shirts. We are desperately trying to avoid melting in MMFs. We are planning capsule holiday wardrobes. We are getting ready for summer gorgeousness......come and join us for as we wait for the temperatures to soar.....

QueenC!
I'm less dependent on the colour Swatch these days too. I think as long as the colours tone in with the main neutrals you wear it's fine. Are you bringing it today?

Morning! Looking at wardrobe and trying to work out what to wear.

Glad you're keeping the bag QueenC!

Yes it's with me. Got on the train and immediately the woman opposite said "nice coach bag"

Good decision QueenC. I love the colour despite it not being winter proscribed.

I think I'm about to buy a yellow tote, & wore my Warehouse dress with quite a few yellow stripes to the cricket yesterday. I think it works despite yellow being a no for me in theory.

Love your &OS dress Bernice. I was going to copy but none left in my size sadly.

I got the Boden ruched dress v-neck version, but it's going back. A bit too sexy on me for potential office wear, I probably should size up!

Whoops posted too soon.

I didn't get the job Bernice but am their first reserve and have a (3-hour eek) interview for a similar role next week so am still in work mode.

Hope you all have a lovely day at the MU today. Sorry to be missing it again, must do better next time.
I'm having a family day with DMiL before going out for a birthday dinner with a few friends. I'm in striped J Crew maxi skirt & non-wintet fluoro peach top.... Will wear green Warehouse dress later.

Lots of updates please [fizz]

I'm on the train with my new bag too

Glad you made a decision on the bag Queen

Stokey I've been stalking a yellow tote for ages but sadly it's last season's and is oos everywhere

Me and the bag are enjoying a spot of people watching from a lovely sunny cafe with the most divine flapjack! Have spotted several lush bags on people and some questionable outfits

The part of London we are meeting in today is ace for people watching QueenC.

On my way! Look forward to meeting the new bags. I have no new bag to show off today first for everything, i am using my balenciaga. Gosh, no new bling either

justa have PM'ed you... We have changed venue. My number in pm.

Bernice can you PM me your mobile number again? I don't think it saved.

It was a blue bag kind of a day

I didn't get the memo

Made it to KC.....hope I'm on right train....brill day, loved you. Hoc ladies so much. Will do customary round up when I've had a sandwich to soak up the alcohol

Right oh. Another great MU:

Award for the most honest and good person goes to Justa who left and returned half an hour later because she thought she'd forgotten to pay her billshe hadnt

Best wearer of red striped dress goes to Liberty and not to the other lady who walked in wearing it who tried unsuccessfully to ignore the fact huge sartorial fail on her part, should have laughed it off

General dippiness award goes to Blingy who let QueenC try on her blingtastic bracelet then forgot about it and, yes, we'd like to go to your jewellers for a MMV try on

Incredible legs award goes to the statuesque twins shop and Marsha hate you gorgeous ladies...great dresses btw.

Incredible hair award goes to the stunning Bernice who rocked a subtle print and I meant to ask you about your white bag

Cool stripe and Gigi combo goes to the mighty Fedup wegot a taxi in record time

Train cock up award goes toQieenC who got carried away with cheese appreciation and missed train home....great bag spotted by stranger too!

Lovely day all round. We missed many ususl attendees. Lovely atmosphere in sunny London .

Just back from a garden party thing

Loved today. It was so wonderful to see you all, really warm and fuzzy feelings about our mus. Love them - and you all

Will be back tomorrow with a round up

Fab round up dry. Am on tube trying not to cry. Going to miss you all so much. Will do round up tomorrow. Xx

So sorry I couldn't make it, just couldn't fit it in between PTA commitments and DD's party planning. Hope we'll do another soon, even if just a mini! X

I'm home and just about recovered from the madman of a taxi driver I had. If he hadn't given me such travel sickness I would have looked up his details and reported him-i''m pretty sure he went through a red light

Lovely day. Yes, I missed my train, but not through cheese I hasten to add-just because I must have have underestimated the time it took to walk. i was only a minute late --and it gave me time to get food and more wine

My round up is
blingy gorgeous boobs
shop and marsha gorgeous legs
kitty loved the bag
dry- loved the dress
bernice so lovely to see you again. Loved your hair
fedup so short but so gorgeous
justa sorry you had to leave so early. As gorgeous as ever. And this time, you're definitely a summer
lib what can I say? I'm hoping you can come visit, otherwise that was our last meeting. Love you xxx

Hi everyone, I had such a great time at the mu sorry I had to rush off (although I did pop back )I had that horrible sinking feeling when I got to the tube and realised what I had forgotten!

Lib looked beautiful in her new dress and I am seriously tempted by her new bag. Will miss you and really hope that wasn't our last meeting x
Kitty very chic in a monochrome dress which set off the gorgeous bag perfectly
queenc looking lovely as ever in navy. Loved your new bag too, glad you kept it
fed up looked glowing, please share your skincare secrets!
dry looking gorgeous as ever, that dress looks so good on you
Bernice was lovely to meet you for the first time also had beautiful glowing skin
Blingy looked gorgeous and summery with amazing jewels!
Marsha and shop looked stunning in their dresses agree re long legs I felt like a midget next to you two!
I managed to get back ok but running for the train did not help matters

for shop

for dry

bonkers boots

I utterly utterly love this bag but sadly cannot justify another grey cross body

Morning! Have now removed yesterdays make up and bling, brushed fuzzy teeth and guzzled water. Long round up coming up to make up for my recent absence....

So yesterday was all dresses and mostly blue bags! All the dresses were very different, but everyone looked gorgeous!

From Marsha and Shop who had their legs out, to Lib, FedUp and Bernice who were wearing longer dresses. Marsha's dress was old blue and white, almost kaftan like and so chic. The perfect dress for her. Would love it for myself but would look so rubbish! Lib's crazy Zara red and white candy stripe dress turned out to look great and obviously better than the other girl who walked in wearing the same dress. I loved the white loafers you were wearing with them, and fabulous having the teal Aspinal bag, different colour and just a great contrast.

Bernice (who i am really annoyed at myself that i didn't get to talk to her more) was in a beautiful long print dress. I did look closely at the print at one point, but now cant remember what it was, just remember admiring it! I didn't realise that FedUp's outfit was actually a dress till we moved from the first bar. Quite clever, having the Breton stripes on top with the long swish dark skirt. Shop's monochrome print dress (which i think you linked recently?) was gorgeous. To be fair i didn't look at the dress very much as i was totally checking out her legs. Yes Dry you did hear that one correctly too.

I absolutely loved Kitty's whistles giraffe dress. She looked great in it and made me want to rush out and get it but alas i wouldn't wear it as well as her! Same with QueenC's navy uniqlo dress - looks like crepe and very stunning on you, and Dry's print dress. Beautiful. And your hair looked awesome as usual. So so swishy.

Justa and i weren't wearing dresses - both had top and jeans in her case, and shorts in mine. Her beautiful pink cotton top and pink scarf were gorgeous. You have beautiful skin Justa. That pink really suits you. Oh and love those shoes. Think you have worn them before, but they're fab!! Where are they from? I think I have worked out that pointy shoes don't suit me but still.

Was a fab day with fantastic chat about everything and anything. Funniest moment was when QueenC said goodbye to my boobs. Lib, i am amazed i didn't cry when we parted. I don't think i am facing the reality of you being on the other side of the world yet!
