MN Vogue - volume 84

[shopafrolic]

Bring on the cosy sweaters, boots and coats - Autumn is here and it brings lots more shopping opportunities for the Voguettes. Join us for fun fashion and beauty chat from high street to designer. Continuing on from here

Sorry. Didn’t mean to be a thread killer. Genuine story was that when the fire brigade had done their work they asked if there was anything we wanted to collect (personal belongings). I walked out with a faux leather floor length skirt and a wonderbra
I did an M&S run today for presents and bought these. The pics are hideous as always but I sized down and bought the long length - I need a green sweater now to go with..... has anyone seen anything fairly low cost?

God massively intense Shop though loves the idea of your faux leather skirt 😁

Have you looked at Gap? They tend to have a million offers at this time of year, or of course Uniqlo for the basics.

I thought I had Christmas sorted & then got an email from Amazon saying they had refunded DD1s Lego as it had got lost. I'd just assumed it was on one of the boxes. It was meant to be her Santa present so now am a bit stuck.

But only 7 and a half hours of work left - not that I'm counting... - til 7th January, hurray.

We're on our own on Xmas day, I've bought a onesie for the first time, it's cosy with pom poms

But have been wearing my starry Pyrus dress & &OS sparkly dress lots this season, would do one of those if we were seeing anyone!

Fab story shop! Must check smoke alarms though.
Nothing wrong with a onesie stokey. We’ve also had amazon parcels ‘lost’. In reality i think it means that they can’t fulfill orders as ours was something bought in a Black Friday deal.
Two more days of school. The dc are on their knees and at 7.45 still sound asleep. I’m almost tempted to leave them and take them in late but I know it’ll stress them out if I do that.

I'd forgotten I have a leather skirt so thanks for the reminder Shop! Can't imagine the horror of seeing your home go up in flames.

I'll be wearing 2 outfits on Christmas Day - skinnies and grey jumper with sparkly gold reindeer when with the dgc's and then we're out in the evening so it'll be HL skinnies and the Hush shirt I wore to the MU. We're going to a party on Sunday so now I've been reminded of the leather skirt, I'll wear that with a gold s/s jumper I purchased from MV in the summer and my favourite snake print heeled ankle boots.

Am off to the O2 tonight but will be dressing for comfort rather than style I think!

Just a quick one to say to dry, that both those Reiss dresses you linked are in the sale.

at shop and her personal belongings post fire. In all seriousness it must have been awful.

Christmas outfits sound great fedup. I get loads of wear out of my leather skirts in winter. They’re one of my favourite ‘go to’s’.

Just looked at those trousers Shop all sold out

Eveyone I love the velvet Reiss but not brave enough to bare so much flesh

Ooh mine was black Friday too QueenC. Actually contacted Amazon & after a bit of nudging, they gave me a gift voucher for the price difference - it's gone up by £20 since I bought it - so have rebought & it's coming today (hopefully).

Marsha lucky you got away when you did. Such chaos at Gatwick, can't believe they can't find whose behind it.

I just bought this class="underline">LgBRBdEiwAkovNsFQZ2YeTIWsiUZYdUsB494XOBmn5D1hoZPz0S7nVXsuBh1faT861ZxoCirIQAvDBwE All Saints jumper in the sale. Planning on wearing it pretty much how they've styled it so hope it will contribute to the Xmas wardrobe.

Stokey I know, one of my colleagues was stuck there, took her nearly 40 hrs to get home . Hope they get them soon. And bloody Amazon, what a pita. Am waiting for ski stuff for ds which every day they assure me is arriving but still no sign. Today is my last chance, grr!

For Christmas Day am wearing my new Ganni high neck sparkly dress, probably mostly with slippers! Fedup sounds like you have your look nailed.

I just read all the dental hygienist thread on here over my morning coffee, she’s very eloquent and informative.

I can't see that link Stokey goes to a blank page

I’ve found my NYE outfit ladies. You all know I love a bit of sparkle, so voila!

Every maybe Blingy should wear it to her Christmas party next year

For Christmas day I'll be wearing this JCrew leopard skirt it had been on my wish list for a while and I finally got round to buying it. I'll pair it with a black merino jumper.

Clothing I would replace if my house burnt down:

A black coat
Grey/black/dark and light wash jeans
Black and tan boots
Black and tan cross body bags
Black Nike Internationalist trainers
White trainers
Merino jumpers in an assortment of colours
Some versatile Primark blouses

Got my Amazon packages in the nick of time woo hoo. Just finished work, feeling so festive and excited now that luggage is packed and gifts wrapped and we are en route home.

Everyone and Fedup haha, do you know though, I think Blingy would look absolutely stunning in that!

Today am v happy with my outfit. From the bottom up am wearing suede acne ankle boots, cropped mih jeans with frayed edge, ancient skinny black polo neck from white co which is excellent for layering due to lack of bulk, plus new Ganni puff sleeve silk wrap blouse.

Shop Arket has some great knitwear and sale has started but don’t know about dark green.

I meant to say Everyone and kitty

Love it Everyone - was tempted to buy something similar for my 9 year old from Boden, but thought it may even be too sparkly for her!

Great skirt Kitty

Glad Amazon came thru Mara

Trying AS jumper link again.

That’s very you stokey.
kitty you do j crew so well.
mara that sounds very stylish
This is my new jumper. I’ve liked it for a while but didn’t need it but but dp have bought it for me for xmas

stokey i LOVE that

Could really see you in it Shop. Comes up big if you go for it, I got S but it's a bit long in arms, think I'd have been fine with XS.
Love T Rex QueenC

Great jumpers Stokey & Queen

Mara a while back you mentioned a new bag purchase, did you get round to linking it on here?

Can someone please tell me the secret of wearing red lipstick without it ending up as a old lady lip line after an hour?

Morning! Ooh some really nice links over the last few days Voguettes! Lovely new jumper QueenC and love the leopard print skirt Kitty.That silver jumpsuit made me laugh Everyone, the big question is whether dh has seen Daniel recently Hope they were able to fix your beautiful ring for you.

So I had a very busy start to the week but over the last few days my ootd has been t-shirt and shorts (Today's outfit is a t-shirt that's 19 years old, though it looks brand new with beige Ann Taylor Chinos and trainers!). I have pinned where i am - fantastic place which I would highly recommend. The experiences have been utterly wonderful and occasionally scary! This morning, we were driving along and a herd of elephants crossed right in front of us. One stopped and then walked right towards us before stopping a few feet away to give us an angry stare us before changing it's mind and wondering off. I might have held my breath a bit!

The secret for Dry
Also a flesh coloured lip liner above your lip line and a base of red lipliner around and then across the whole lip.

Oh thank you Shop xx

Hello hello

I have been mostly drunk, but having lots of fun!

My birthday was on Weds so that was lovely - I didn't want much this year (I know), but DH got me a black mock croc APC Half moon bag, which I love, plus a gorgeous Astley Clarke ring and some nice bath and skincare bits.

We had our big Xmas do last week (whole service line for the first time - this will mean something to Blingy) which was fun and I felt awesome in my red Ghost dress. Nearly everyone else wore black, so I stood out a bit but as you all know I'm no wallflower so it was fine 😄

Hope everyone is well and the mini Voguettes are excited about Christmas! Mwah to you all

Hi all
Super busy week here too, have worked a full time ( and then some) week for the first time in forever. Was a shock to the system!
Shop uniqlo currently have cashmere reduced to 49.99. green cashmere jumper
Mara those trainers are baffling, who on earth would wear them! and they now keep annoying me on my sidebar!
Blingy have an amazing time away!
Fed Up the dc don't get presents from us but they will still exchange gifts with their friends and our lovely neighbours. We also have an annual christmas get together with our neighbours at our house where they get their xmas fix!
Amber mock croc apc bag sounds lush.
queenc love that dinosaur jumper and such perfect colours for you too.
Kitty great skirt. I really love a leopard skirt.
stokey I want a onesie with pom poms now too

MAJOR PURCHASE ALERT!

I have just bought this bag

loewe bag

Its way more than I have ever spent on anything in one go but I love it. I had been pondering a Celine belt/small big bag for ages but Hedi Slimane has put me off. I wanted to use it out today but stuck at home waiting for someone to repair the boiler

Waves to Amber
Justa gorgeous bag - such a cool shape
miniShop has a vomiting bug - joy. So not much glamour here.
ILs arrive tomorrow, DFIL is struggling with driving so MrShop is driving to Norfolk and back in a day to collect them. We then have drinks with neighbours tomorrow eve.
At home on a Christmas Eve but visitors expected throughout the day and eve. Will try and get to the local crib service too.
Sending love to all. Hope those on hols are having a fab time. And that bubbaVoguettes are all good.
