I was wearing a North Face jacket with the hood up. Ditched all fashion credentials for warmth and dryness.

I haven't bought anything interesting for aaaaages Angry I think I am Sali Hughes, I can't find anything in the shops. Have a few things on pin on a secret sales board. I still don't think the good weather has properly started yet. I still have Pistols on standby for days like today.

Love the tee Shop I've been wearing a lot of stripes recently à la you and Dream

Every have a great holiday, am Envy at you getting some sun. I'm in desperate need of it atm.

My search for a gingham top has ended with this . Doesn't make me look like a clown. Nice with black capris and loafers for work. A longer, more mature version of

My new 'winter' Hmm Seasalt coat got its first outing today along with opaques and knee length boots. The ONLY silver lining was that a) love the coat & b) got to wear the burgundy whistles dress.

I like the look of the new basics range Shop linked -nice ganni t too.

I've been wearing my navy Jigsaw loafers a lot recently-they seem to go with everything especially the crop flare jeans. I've had them about 18months but never really wore them until now.

No fashion purchases for the moment, I'm waiting until the MU & will trawl Regent st. The sales should be underway then I think?

That's lovely dry.
I've been wearing a Barbour Mac jacket thing that I bought a couple of years ago. It's longervlength so great in the rain although I was a bit chilly yesterday.

Nice shirt dry. I saw that the other day and thought it was pretty.

Bit brighter here today but still not what I call June weather.

Thanks kitty. Really looking forward to getting away.

fedup and kitty I haven't bought anything in ages either. I don't think there's much out there and I haven't even work most of the summery stuff I have without buying more.

Couldn't open the links on my ipad last night so have just had a quick look - lovely top Dry. I've seen some nice stuff in Monsoon recently.

Queen love the blouses you have ordered - especially the cheaper one and also really love the Jigsaw jacket you linked for Lib. Lots of loves going on here!

Am assuming that you all watched the One Love concert on Sunday (how brilliant were Cold Play) I thought Katy Perry's look was fantastic -she really suits the white blonde pixie cut. Wasn't so keen on the 'vest and pants' look that another band were wearing though!

Ootd is BR black 7/8's, pink Vero Moda pussy bow blouse, black pointy flats (M&S) and a black waterfall cardigan Shock - I know that waterfall cardi's are a S&B no no but it actually works I'll get my coat

Fedup I think waterfall cardis can look great - I'm sure you look lovely. I have my eye on several pairs of loafers for the sales - I'd like some white / cream ones and perhaps yellow too.

Dry that top is lovely.

Approval for my NZ visa came through today - I knew it wouldn't be a problem but I felt very relieved when I had the confirmation in black and white.

Shop always knew you were a trend setter Grin.

I've been looking at dresses on line all day. If money were no object I would buy these...

Firework print dress
McQueen red dress
Bottega Veneta Midi

Wow lib that Bottega Veneta dress was made for you!!

Lovely dry, really like that shape, is like my APC one.

Your outfit sounds great Fedup. Very weather appropriate. I am struggling like you Dream as packed all my winter clothes away but a big scarf and trench have kept me warm enough.

The storms didn't stop me buying these espadrilles today though. Planning ahead for holidays. Need a few more items, maybe a dress, skirt and some vest tops but will wait for sales.

Everyone enjoy your hols!

Love those dresses Lib. I had actually looked at the red McQueen dress before. The Bottega one is gorgeous.

FedUp I own 2 waterfall cardigans if it makes you feel better. Or I will just get my coat and meet you outside?Grin

These J Brand skinny pants got their first outing today with a pink shirt and a black sweater. Loved it.

Amber Flowers hope you're ok.

Love those espadrilles mara, I am on the hunt for some so would love to hear how they fit and whether they're comfy.

I had a small H&M spree on Friday for holiday clothes even though I don't have a summer holiday booked. They have a good amount of natural fabrics if you search.
Linen/cotton shirt, really nice and thick
Linen joggers
Linen/cotton shirt dress, looks really good with a waist belt.
Now just need the good weather back again.

Lib that's exciting about the visa :)

Thanks Blingy, I am much relieved it's not just me!

I'd noticed you'd not been around much Amber but thought you were still busy with your new house. Hope things improve soon Flowers. Not sure I mentioned that I watched all 3 episodes. You were brilliant, well done. I will admit to being surprised you didn't use the p word though Grin

Gorgeous dress links Lib. Mara is right, the BV dress is perfect for you. Pleased you now have the NZ visa.

Like those espadrilles Mara, perfect for summer hols.

Thanks for the gingham shirt love everyone. Wore it today with Banana Republic black Sloane fit ankle grazers and my Kurt G pointy patent shoes which are on their last legs, good job I double booked . Felt great, want to wear outfit again soon .

I also gave my new floral Whistles Sicily body con dress an outing last Saturday. Felt. Fab, such a wonderful dress.

Love to you Amber

Think I'll be getting the opaques on again tomorrow Sad

Morning Voguettes,

Am up and at it today, been out to vote before the school run, involved an attempt to briefly explain a constitutional monarchy to 'let's choose the new president' ds Smile

Hope all ok Amber, looking forward to catching up with you at mini mu.

That's a gorgeous blazer dream, the cut and fabric look great.

Bet you looked gorgeous Dry, it's the perfect summer dress for you. Am looking for mine, want something floral but less tailored and bodycon. The saloni one worn by the model in the pic I linked yesterday with the espadrilles is perfect and on sale but sold out in my size.

Love the H&M shirtdress. Hate going into the shop though it's so badly organised. Did you buy online Blair?

What's everyone wearing today? I am in white skinnies with tan marant cluster boots, equipment blue and white stripe tunic shirt cinched in with skinny tan marant belt.

Mini MU?! What am I missing?
Morning all - I have a completely swollen eye with terrible hay fever having helped out at Beavers last night, BBQing outdoors in the woods. No style here.
Have voted - same conversation with miniShop Mara - no presidents here!

Sorry Shop Blush. I organised a small mini MU for tomorrow evening with Amber, Mara, Blair and Dream as they can't make the MU on 8th July. Hope your eye settles down soon.

I voted this morning too, brought DD with me as the polling station is at the nursery in her school. The lovely polling station staff showed her the ballot papers and explained all about voting and MP's while I voted. She told them she'd be back later with her Dad when he collects her from school.

I am wearing this Me&Em dress with tan brogues and trench coat, nude tights, I refuse to wear opaques in June.
