Christmas and the sales are sadly over but winter is still here for a few months yet.

Come and show us your cosy knits and woolly hats whilst we dream of summer - everyone welcome, the more the merrier.

Thanks Fedup I really liked that blouse.

What colour jumpsuit are you after Queen baby or a more summery colour?

kittyhello · 28/04/2019 14:44

Jcrew

QueenCerise · 28/04/2019 16:01

kitty that is absolutely perfect. But I think I’ve nearly bought j crew online before but the shipping/returns are expensive/a pain

Stokey · 28/04/2019 17:31

So sorry about your news Dream, wishing you all the best.

Loved that Boiler suit Fedup, pity I can't manage the price tag!

I find Warehouse good for jumpsuits QueenC. This is simple or this though open back may be annoying. I also like Hush jumpsuits, this chambray may be too casual.star pattern if you ignore the name!

I finally started 30-day shred only to them have enormous afternoon tea for lunch.... Have felt sick ever since, I don't think they got the ratio of savoury to sweet right but the kids loved it. No clothes buys but I can share some shower room sink porn.

shopafrolic · 28/04/2019 17:54

Sorry - I'm never here

Dream I have no words other than keep your game face on (it was the only way I got through when it happened to DF) and if I can help in any way please shout. I am so sorry things are so tough

Marsha love that Raey dress. I am loving my skirt and lust over so much of their stuff - my new favourite I think
Dry that tux dress was insane - just need to save up a few thousand first right?
No style news other than I bought new trainers when I was in Brighton the other week. Tried loads on and reverted back to classic all white Stan Smiths.
Busy with DF - he is settling in to the home but there is lots to be done to sort finances etc so I am having to find my brain
Sending love to all and strength to all who need it

shopafrolic · 28/04/2019 17:56

This is the Raey jumpsuit I'm coveting

shopafrolic · 28/04/2019 17:57

I tried this jumpsuit on last week - popped in on my way to M&S foodhall just to see what I’d look like in a jumpsuit. Not too bad I guess so maybe will try on some more. They’d be good for summer do’s and can be worn with flats or heels.

Oh and impulse purchased this stripey jumper which I’ve already worn twice so cpw is brilliant!

Last post from me for the moment- love the Reay jumpsuit Shop linked and your new sink Stokey

OneNightTimeMenaceStrikesBack · 28/04/2019 19:41

I also like some of those jumpsuits fedup BUT and its a big but, i don't think i'm tall enough for most of them. I think I need to look for something cropped as it will then be full length on me Grin

glad to hear your DF is settling Shop so sorry things have been so tough for you all. hopefully things will even out a little now Thanks

How is mrDream doing today dream? any sign of improvement?

DryWhiteagainW · 28/04/2019 20:24

Hang on, I’m confused p, thought QueenC was looking for the jumpsuit Confused

QueenCerise · 28/04/2019 20:54

Ooh thanks fedup, I do have an Oliver bonas and I never think of H&M.
I fear it may be like dresses though and it’s goibg to be very hard to find one that fits my waist properly (long waist)

shopafrolic · 28/04/2019 22:32

Check out Uniqlo too QueenC I got some brill ones there last year.

Dreamqueen · 29/04/2019 09:28

Thanks again for all thr kind wishes for Mrdream. Today the physios are going to try and stand him up to assess the physical damage. He's still rambling mentally but is having moments of clarity, even though they are very short.

Game face OOTD is Hush black long sleeve basic Tee, a denim Warehouse pinafore that Stokey found online for me many years ago (and still going strong), white Stans and Nars Bloodflower lipstick.

Fedup all your links and pictures are great. Now I fancy a jumpsuit and have loads of data on phone to do bedside online shopping. Also really loving the straw bag that you linked for Shop.

MarshaBradyo · 30/04/2019 07:48

Dream so hard, thinking of you both Flowers

OneNightTimeMenaceStrikesBack · 30/04/2019 10:51

thinking of you both dream Thanks fingers crossed for improvement even if its slow

having a lazy day, dont even plant o get out of pjs tbh but i think i'm going to maybe go through some of my drawers, see what im keeping and what can be moved on if anything. i'm trying to do regular clear outs so im not hoarding stuff i dont wear. Some can go to my sister and the stuff she doesnt want can go to the charity shop

MarshaBradyo · 30/04/2019 17:01

Is anyone looking for an APC half moon?

shopafrolic · 30/04/2019 17:58

Not me Marsha but I love it when you bargain spot
DMs birthday today so we had lunch with DF at the care home. All a bit soul destroying if I'm honest. DF fairly disinterested. I didn't feel like I could massively dress up so wore (from the bottom up) Sam Edelman Jennifer studded boots, Hudson dark blue skinnies, grey GAP draped tee (love it so much I bought 3!) and my black Zara blazer, mirrored silver RayBans when the sun shone.
GAP tee here Stepped hem is brilliant and the drape really nicely when tucked at the front.

Dreamqueen · 30/04/2019 20:11

Shop lunch sounds very different from what you used to do for a celebration. But DF is in a safe place so that must be a relief for both you and DM.

Your link takes me to Gap home page. I really want to see the tee that you bought 3 of.

Marsha I'm tempted but also on a self imposed shopping ban.

VivaVegas · 30/04/2019 22:22

Sorry to hear things are hard Dream and Shop sending youThanks and Wineand hoping things get easier.
Had a nice break in the sun over Easter (although just as hit if big hotter here!).
If anyone wants an inexpensive flattering swimsuit I bought this navy swimsuit and it's lovely, and a real bargain.
Have just ordered this Black blazer, hoping it might work for nights out. I have these silver flatforms which I cant decide on, I like the idea but not sure if they are too chunky for me.
Kitty I love the red shoes you posted, really nice and s good height.
Queen I struggled to find a jumpsuit last year, ended up with one from Uniglo, possibly the same as Shop bought. This is a bit out there, but I'm strangely drawn to it! Mint Velvet jumpsuit this is also nice black jumpsuit 15% off everything at the moment.
