Mumsnet Vogue Vol 87......it’s the Autumn/Winter count down to Christmas [grin]

[DryWhiteagainW]

So, Marsha has bought her blanket/huge scarf. She’s ready. It’s nearly time to get the boots and woollens out.......over here for friendly fashion chat and more.

kitty I bought the mini version of that bag and it was tiny (sold on ebay for a profit!) so it's good to know the "small" is not too small!

Blair would you consider buying a bigger size then or was the bag not for you? Fab that you made a profit from it though. I also like it in red and was thinking about replacing my black bag with a red one. I'm trying to convince myself that red goes with most colours I wear, i.e. black, navy, grey, denim etc.

I seem to now be addicted to DuoLingo

Umm that could be a good bag option for me, it would be the red for me too I think.

Shop what language are you learning? I'm doing French and may start doing Spanish too! It's a fab app, whenever I have to wait around somewhere I pass the time by doing DuoLingo. Just got a few exercises in just now whilst hanging around for my for my dc ay tennis tennis.

Karcheer it's a lovely bag. I think I'd go for red too.

I’m doing French Kitty (already speak a fair amount but v rusty).

Kitty can totally see you in Grensons.

Dry such a beautiful dress, can imagine princess Margaret in it in 1950s. Can’t wait for The Crown new season.

Having a cosy night in with dh while the rain beats down outside. Glass of port, good tunes and jo malone candle, very nice! Is anyone getting a beauty advent calendar this year?

kitty it was a couple of years ago, I think I got another bag instead. The profit was because I bought it with one of those Matches discount codes! It was lovely but just so tiny. And only £85 less than the one you're looking at which is crazy.

love this styled casually for Mara maybe?

I’m out for lunch with my parents, DH, brother and sil for my mums birthday, I’d like to wear my mv leggings, just not sure how to wear them, any ideas?

I may have missed the link Karcheer but if they’re leather I wear mine with a chunky knit sweater and trainers usually. Or on a night out, silk blouse, stiletto ankle boots and a blazer.

Morning! It's such a chilly day! Have been out and about for a couple of hours and keeping warm in YSL cashmere Breton sweater with black j crew matchstick jeans, John Lewis black wool coat (still remember that it was £180 about 5 years ago and I have had so much value out of it), Burberry cashmere check scarf and carrying Alaia beige laser cut tote. My boots are the decidedly uncool Ugg long "Cardigan" boots, but i love them so you can't chuck me off the thread.

Full on bling today. Boodles blossom cluster ring, tag watch and diamond tear drop earrings and diamond pendant that were gifts from dmil - as she said that they are good for dressing up a casual outfit!

Does anyone else have a growing collection of "poppy" bling or is it just me? Every year, i buy something extra in addition to the poppy as I travel a lot at this time of the year, and always tend to lose the poppy! This year, it's a poppy friendship bracelet from the British Legion. Today it's stacked with a diamond tennis bracelet.

Dd doing something this morning, so I have time to kill....so have been waiting for the shops to open. Have a happy and warm Saturday everyone!

I’m going for grey chunky jumper and Chanel long heeled boots, plus blinging it up with tag watch, H black clic clac, Tiffany lilac dress Ring and boodles roulette earrings...

I have nothing poppy apart from about 12 paper flowers I buy one every time I see a man :/

Back from the shops!

Something I have wanted for aaaaages!

Wooo!

Oops sorry Marsha got distracted! Here it is! I decided to get 3 and stack them. They come in 3 different sizes and I got 1 medium and 2 petite as thats what looked best on me. Absolutely love them! Dh has looked at the 7 rings I am now wearing and wisely said nothing

Blair the skirt is here, it is lovely. Thank you x

Oooh beautiful Blingy!! So jel love them

They’re beautiful Blingy

So the Spanx faux leather leggings arrived - gutted to say they are too short for me. For faux they are actually v good. Quite thin fabric but don’t look it on. You really feel the panels holding you in. If I was shorter I would definitely have kept them.
The Hush oversized jumper is fab. Definite keeper.
Karcheer outfit sounds fab. I gave the Poppy collectors some more cash today but told them to keep the poppies after your post above

Dry yay so glad! I love inspiring people's buys! It is fab isn't it

Blingy oh wow I love them, bet the colours look amazing on you!

Karcheer hope you had a lovely lunch

Shop that is a shame, the curse of long legs (not a problem I have )

What was in the bags Blingy?!

They’d probably be too long for me that’s disappointing Shop

Right, tonight I’m hosting a bbq for 10 ...you should have seen the butcher’s face when I told him. Dress code is anything with wellies because it’s very boggy outside.....I’m smart/cas and will be pretending I’ve got heels on .....once you’re sitting down you can’t see feet anyway .

Oh and I discovered we might have mice in the arctic hut ..... won’t mention that!

@Blingysolightly they are lovely!
