Couldn't think of any sort of creative title, I'm afraid! Link to old thread

Or split? 🤔

Huffthepuff · 16/07/2019 21:35

Yeah I know Soy 😭** why why why is it always polyester? I think I'll scratch the itch. A friend of mine was wearing something similar on Saturday over boyfriend jeans and a black vest. It looked incredible. Hoping I can emulate the look with this. I also love some of their earrings but god they are made with some hideous mix of metals that will probably give me gangrene. But... they are soooo shiny 😍

Huffthepuff · 16/07/2019 21:57

Ok, I've ordered the tunic/kimono but not the bag. But then I needed to get it over free delivery so...

@Ninkaninus what a shame about the shoes, I hope you find some lovely alternatives.

@FuzzyPuffling so sorry to hear you’ve been suffering, glad you’re feeling better. My dd loves body boarding, hoping to do some in Portugal this summer.

twosoups1972 · 16/07/2019 22:51

binky disappointing about the Warehouse stuff. They do sometimes have some gems but can be a bit hit or miss.

@SoyYo gorgeous Gudrun top, lovely print.

@Huffthepuff the Zara bag is fab, go for it! Lovely summer bag.

ilovecherries · 17/07/2019 08:37

Oh, ffs. I can’t post on here at all just now. Just wrote another long post and several yesterday, and none are posting 🤬

What happens when you try and post cherries?

Ellapaella · 17/07/2019 08:54

@Huffthepuff I love that Zara tunic. Can't wait to see your pics when it arrives.

ilovecherries · 17/07/2019 09:42

The page reloads every couple of minutes, ella, so anything but a few words is lost :(

SoyYo those are the sort of shoes I've got now have just binned but they don't last very long.
I bought my DH a pair of these beauties for Christmas (after he kept losing pairs in the surf - dragged off by waves) and he says they are great, so I might treat myself to some.

Huff the Zara tunic and the black top are a-mazing!

twosoups1972 · 17/07/2019 11:37

@Huffthepuff the Zara jacket is beautiful! But I think you should get the bag too Grin

neveradullmoment99 · 17/07/2019 11:48

Its all beautiful @Huffthepuff. Looking forward yo seeing them in real lifeSmile

SoyYo · 17/07/2019 12:35

Ooh they look comfy fuzzy and very similar to the ones I borrowed from my cousin in Spain, just get them because I think living next to the sea and knowing how much body boarding and being in the water lifts your spirits and also helps with health to me it would be a necessity like shampoo or toothpaste. Hope you’re feeling brighter again today.

cherries sorry to read about your gremlins. I’ve not noticed any problems but I use MN on my iPhone internet browser

Huff I look forward to seeing you in your Zara buys! Do report back

Ellapaella · 17/07/2019 12:40

@ilovecherries have you updated the app? Failing that are you up to date on iOS?

Ninkaninus · 17/07/2019 12:47

Hushistas, I’m going to be shameless and ask for hugs and good vibes.

Struggling right now, not having a great time in general (not life itself, life is good and I’m fortunate and have so much to be grateful for, but just certain things that can’t be helped, and today is one of those days where I don’t want to be ‘here’ anymore). Normally I’d buy something to cheer myself up, but I’m on the verge of closing a credit card that has got me into trouble before and I really am not prepared to spend on it.

Just want to be someone else.

ilovecherries · 17/07/2019 13:10

Oh, nink, that’s tough. Sending lots of good vibes.

ilovecherries · 17/07/2019 13:11

I don’t use the app, ella, and my iPad updates regularly. It’s only on MN it’s happening. Total pita

But it’s making me succinct!

FuzzyPuffling · 17/07/2019 13:20

nink I am sorry you feel so low. I'm sending you thoughts and vibes (and prayers if you like) hoping it is only temporary. Don't buy anything - that's just short term and you already know it's not going to help - but this is a safe space for ranting/moaning/being sad if you need to.

Keep breathing lovely, you're doing ok!

Ellapaella · 17/07/2019 13:31

Hey Nink. - sending love and positivity 💞 I'm sorry you're not feeling so good... we are all here if you want to chat, even if just to distract yourself.

Ellapaella · 17/07/2019 13:38

And actually while you're here Nink.. just wanted to say that I read your posts on the shoe thread yesterday and found myself nodding to everything you were saying. You come across as being very thoughtful and intelligent. I wish I was able to articulate myself so well in written words.
Hope you feel better soon, in the meantime we are all here to lend an ear if needed x

SoyYo · 17/07/2019 14:06

nink i echo the heartfelt comments above. This too shall pass. I agree shopping is only a futile short term distraction and not what your heart and soul needs.
Remember yesterday’s full moon eclipse is also bringing forward a lot of buried emotions that we need to release, forgive and let go of...
Be super kind to yourself and practice self care in small ways: a book, a comforting smell, a warm bath with essential oils or your best soak. Reach out to friends in RL and to us here.
You are beautiful and you deserve all the joy and love, the comfort and a listening ear xxx

Thank you for your kind words. 🌷and thank you Ella for the compliment.

I’m alright really. Just feeling sad (and a little self-indulgent I guess) and wishing for a little while that some things in my life could have been different. Also feeling a little bad because I let my mood affect the way I addressed someone on another thread.

I’m not going to buy anything today. I’m really trying hard to break that link between feeling ‘less than’ and then having to buy something nice to feel better.

When my refund from the shoes comes through I will be able to pick something else, but that’s because there were several things I wanted/needed and since the shoes didn’t work out I can put that money towards one of those instead.

twosoups1972 · 17/07/2019 14:54

@ninka so sorry to hear that. I hope you feel you can talk to us if you want to, we are all here. Wishing you hugs Flowers
