I reckon you should take a blazer and ankle boots what do you think Shop

Sounds like great fun when do you get back?

shopafrolic · 06/11/2018 20:01

Have packed skinnies, lots of tees and lightweight knits, silk shirts for eve. HL blazer and LK Bennett shoe boots with Jimmy Choo clutch to dress things up. Have Whistles biker jacket for daytime.
MrShop bought me some new Hudson skinnies in the darkest blue with no visible stitching. Really good.
Back Saturday eve.

Have a great time Shop!
How amazing to meet her Mara. Shes ageless and her style suits her so well.
I wore last years warehouse rainbow stripe jumper (inspired by everyone's dress version) so much that I bought this years version Will have to try on later.
ootd was black velvet skinnies, teal sandro wrap style shirt layered over a skinny black polo neck and grey long slim whistles coat. I froze my ankles for fashion and wore these white leather loafers. It's now socks all the way to mid March for me. I wonder whether I can do a white ankle boot, is it too much??

QueenCyan · 08/11/2018 21:15

Gosh, everyone is busy. Nothing on here for 24h Shock.

shop hope you’re having fun. Can totally imagine you as Chrissie.
justa nice jumper. I’m not sure I can imagine you in white boots. What style were you thinking?

QueenCyan · 08/11/2018 21:25

cool pjs

QueenCyan · 08/11/2018 21:30

dry do you need a purple coat?

QueenCyan · 08/11/2018 21:34

love this
and this

QueenCyan · 08/11/2018 21:42

If I needed a new dress I would get this one
for kitty
for dry

QueenCyan · 08/11/2018 22:08

Anyone want anything from hm/moschino? This skirt is still in stock Grin

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 08/11/2018 22:10

Hello!

Marsha Sweat is £15 a month but I've never paid for gym membership or anything in my life, so it's incentivising me to keep going so far. Tough one re the pram chassis... but you'd get most of the cost back selling it on right?

Love that QueenC.... does Dry need a purple coat? Why not? Grin and those PJs are crazy!

I tried on this Hush dress in John Lewis and it was very nice but just not me somehow. I don't think these loose midi dresses that are around are ever going to suit me. I might try a midi skirt with a jumper instead, or a shirt dress.

Also ordered faux leather leggings for my yummy mummy wardrobe. Just need some golden goose trainers and a rainbow cashmere jumper now Wink

Shop looks like you're having a fabulous time! Report back on outfits please :)

Stokey · 08/11/2018 23:27

Oh I like those PJs QueenC, may forego the skirt!

I ended up buying the Stories coat in blue, . It's cosy. I liked the Harris Wharf ones but they didn't have the colour I would have liked & didn't want to compromise at that price. Wore it today with my lovely Missoni boots (as recommended by Shop last year). Gave a much needed boost to a bad day at work, am struggling with a new boss who loves to micro manage, depressing.

justasecond · 09/11/2018 10:50

Lovely coat stokey and I remember those amazing boots from last year. New boss sounds like hard work.

queenc you're right I love the look, not sure I would be brave enough to wear them esp round these parts!

Blair I like that dress but I struggle with them too. My shoulders are too narrow and they just make my hips look big. A jumper and skirt work better on me too to balance me out.

I need some new trainers. My beloved IM leopard ones are wearing out Sad does anyone have any Veja trainers? I quite like the look of these www.net-a-porter.com/gb/en/product/1089532/Veja/bastille-leather-sneakers

QueenCyan · 09/11/2018 17:09

I knew my links would lure you all back in!
blair is that the mummy uniform around you? Leather leggings just wouldn’t fit in around here unless they were from white stuff or fat face! I think your frame is possibly too petite for a maxi dress?
stokey gorgeous coat but nothing worse than a micro manager!
justa doesn’t shop have vejas?

QueenCyan · 09/11/2018 17:12

everyone I’ve found the perfect bra for us!

QueenCyan · 09/11/2018 17:13

I’ve just realised how weird that sounds!! It’s just that we both like navy stars!

QueenCyan · 09/11/2018 17:35

RAndom Friday evening fantasy shopping...
Could these be any more me??

QueenCyan · 09/11/2018 17:40

THe ultimate Christmas gift

FedupNagging · 09/11/2018 17:45

I did have a look on my phone earlier Queen but no chance to comment. Think I may need to sell a a child/kidney at lot of stuff to justify the NAP fantasy gift.

Not sure about white boots in winter Justa (sound like my Mother) but those Veja trainers would be a good substitute on warmer days.
