Never!
I’m yet to tell people dd had surgery today and it went very well. So happy. So relieved and so very grateful, love the surgeon and so pleased I kept pushing at the insurance people when they got it wrong.
What a big thing!

DryWhiteagainW · 30/05/2018 07:59

Little happy dance .....fab Marsha

Longislandicetee · 30/05/2018 08:17

Marsha, you warrior mother, am so happy for you, dh and little dd.Thanks

kittyhello · 30/05/2018 08:27

That's great news Marsha can't imagine the relief you must all be feeling.

shopafrolic · 30/05/2018 09:44

Thanks Everyone - I ordered the Amalfi bikini and I've also done a massive Seafolly order from Figleaves as they had a discount too.
I also ordered the Castañer espadrilles last night, the Uniqlo jumpsuit to try and a big order of vest tops from GAP with 40% off. I won't be able to keep it all but I was getting panicked as certain things kept selling out. I have my eye on a Me&em dress to try but it keeps selling out and I"m never quick enough on the restock notification.
Sending love to Marsha today
Kitty I was looking at those shorts yesterday - are they good?

kittyhello · 30/05/2018 10:33

Shop I like the shorts, great colour and material although I can't make the belt work as I'm quite short so it looks too fussy on me. The belt does make them look more dressy though.

MarshaBradyo · 30/05/2018 10:57

Thanks lovely people Flowers

I’m flying high it is true, so good, dd is asleep on me. Final checks then home today

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 30/05/2018 11:04

Lovely news Marsha, so pleased it went well Flowers

Dry the bag arrived and I LOVE IT! Thank you for giving me the push. It's very me! Much better than the Gucci which I thankfully made a profit on. Your "all my own hair" comment made me laugh btw!

Shop sounds like the holiday wardrobe shopping is coming along swimmingly Grin

One I'm loving your Instagram spam! Especially as I'm not going away this year. Looks amazing.

I definitely can't make the 30th June for MU now :( DH's annual family bbq for SIL and DN's birthdays has been confirmed for that day. But I am pretty free in June so if any of the SW-London-ish Voguettes would be up for a mini MU then that would be fab. ( Amber, Everyone, One, Mara, Marsha? )

YvesKleinBlue · 30/05/2018 18:42

What wonderful news marsha! ❤️

DryWhiteagainW · 30/05/2018 19:59

So pleased Blair

FedupNagging · 30/05/2018 21:06

Marsha you are both hopefully back home by now. So, so pleased everything went well Flowers

Fab bag Blair; did you decide on a baby bag yet?

Yay Everyone for getting the BBB in your case Grin

Can't wait for my holiday, just a few more weeks to go; I think I have everything but should probably take a look. As it's a beach to bar type holiday, I don't need much, just beachwear and dresses. Currently contemplating a spray tan before i go so other beach dwellers are not blinded by my very white legs although the last spray tan I had ended up more on the towels and bedding than my body Hmm

MarshaBradyo · 31/05/2018 04:48

Thank you Flowers

We got home yesterday afternoon. Dd is fine, a little bruised but looks incredible. I’m blown away. Going to join you all now and look at and book some holidays!

Blair I missed the bag! going back to look

MarshaBradyo · 31/05/2018 04:54

Blair which bag did you buy? Grin Sorry I couldn’t find it

A mini mu sounds lovely. I’m pretty bad at expressing so have to work out dd. She definitely has the voguette-ish wardrobe but conversation oth

MarshaBradyo · 31/05/2018 04:56

Stokey us too on the holiday booking, hopefully some good places left, we’ll probably do resort (I think)

shopafrolic · 31/05/2018 09:31

Let me know the mini MU dates too - I may be able to join.
Blair I missed which bag you got too......
The Castañer espadrilles have arrived and are perfect. Thanks Voguettes for recommendations - they are cut really nicely - very flattering and very slim.
Lots more deliveries due over the next few days - my DHL man already asked me what is the best time to catch me at home Hmm
Marsha hope you had a relatively easy night with gorgeous DD. So glad you're both home.

AmberNectarine · 31/05/2018 11:14

Congratulations to mara.

Marsha I've already commented on babyBrady elsewhere, but once again so pleased all went well x

Blair I'd be up for mini-MU!

Hope everyone else is well and enjoying life. Have been busy with work, plus the kiddies are away for the week so DH and I have been drunk for about five days solid now 😄

shopafrolic · 01/06/2018 16:30

Afternoon all.
Amber you are so lucky with the childcare thing - I am v envious.
I've bought a new swimming costume - check out the back of it - I love it!
And this bikini which should create some interesting tan lines Grin
Off to Brighton tomorrow - looking forward to some sun, sea and fun.

shopafrolic · 01/06/2018 16:43

Does anyone have a Me& em code please?

shopafrolic · 01/06/2018 17:06

This Uniqlo jumpsuit has just arrived. Surprisingly flattering and really comfortable - I've kept it on which is a good sign. Looks great with my new espadrilles. Love it when things start to come together :)

Longislandicetee · 01/06/2018 17:58

Hello! Quick drop in from me from the sun bed.Smile

Yves!!! I have just remembered that i am going to be in your city on Wednesday. I am free in the late afternoon if you would like to meet up for a cool drink. Just checked out the weather forecast and it's definitely not for a cup of tea! If there is anything you want from London let me know? Sorry for not remembering earlierBlush

DryWhiteagainW · 01/06/2018 18:11

Ooh Shop I love the swimming costume especially. When do you go? Your capsule wardrobe is great. So far is it...
Black shorts
Silver sparkly top
Espadrilles
Jumpsuit and 2 new swimmers?
What shoes are you taking for evenings and other evening outfits? (I’m living vicariously Grin)

shopafrolic · 01/06/2018 20:05

Majorca and Mexico both in July Dry
So far black shorts and black tank.
Black espadrilles
Jumpsuit
Bikini and swimming costume
I’ve just ordered this red dress
And this blue dress to try.
I still have a fair amount from previous years so just the beach bag to get I think. MrShop has had an amazing payrise following a promotion so i’m good for a few bits.

shopafrolic · 01/06/2018 20:06

Evening shoes will probably be my black Dune caged ones from years back, and my pink LKB ones. Gigi’s will factor obviously Grin

maradesbois · 02/06/2018 09:48

Happy Saturday Voguettes,

Am enjoying a mini break staying with family before starting work on Monday (thanks again for all the good wishes), sunshine and beach days in the UK are just fab.

Marsha delighted at your dd news, warrior mother indeed for getting it sorted Flowers

Everyone glad to hear that BBB made it on holiday and is proving semi useful after all!!

Shop holiday wardrobe sounds perfect and love the black swimwear purchases, la classe! Congrats to MrShop on his promotion too.

Blair I would be up for mini-mu too, maybe it won’t be that mini! Hope that Blingy/Yves mini meet happens too, MNV global!

Don’t forget the main event on 30 June though - I will book somewhere this week and let the yeses and maybes know.

DryWhiteagainW · 02/06/2018 11:44

Love both those dresses Shop very you. You are going to look so chic on holiday.

I’m so enjoying wearing all my summer stuff. Really feel I have a wardrobe that works and I really don’t need anything at all at the moment. Have sorted summer foot wear......embroidered flat mules, trainers, gold sparkly slip on things from Next, loads of Gigis......everything goes. Only down side is I have nothing to link on here.......

Last night I went to an informal bbq catch up with the girls.....I wore a sleeveless swing black top from Banana Republic, my Jack Wills cropped skinny raw edges jeans, black embroidered mules from Asos and loads of gold jewellery , red Longchamp bag......felt good if very short Grin
