Mumsnet Vogue Vol 89 - Must try harder **Edited at the OP's request**

[shopafrolic]

SO the last 'edition' took over a year to complete. Must try harder Voguettes. Despite the fact that we are still in lockdown, and rarely out of loungewear, there is still inspiration to be found. Spring is springing, brighter days are on the horizon and homeschooling CANNOT last forever (not if miniShop wants to live anyway).
So join us for style & beauty chat, and other inspiration as we navigate our way as stylishly as possible through lockdown 3.

dream to look at I prefer the lace ups, but the lazy me would love Velcro!
Great bag marsha
Can really see you in that top kitty

I’m now browsing Baukjen. Love this blouse

Didn’t baukjen used to be Isabella Oliver? The stuff is a lot different than I remember

Here’s a question for you all....
If we could all do a meet up tomorrow, what would you wear....?

I’d probably wear a dress, either a navy one from thought or grey one from H&M

I’d wear a Tory Burch dress and sandals. Never mind that it’s still February! I feel like spring.

Ooh that’s brave lovefrom, I’d be in tights and boots. What colour is your dress?

Shop you know how happy I am for you xxxxx

Blair I keep thinking of miniBlair and how quickly they grow. You were getting married only yesterday, the MNV wedding was one of my (many) highlights.

I don’t really need anything. Just want to loose a few pounds and slide comfortably into my existing wardrobe.

I think my protect this year will be DH.....

This lovely weather is so uplifting. It does feel as if a cloud is lifting. I’ve never been effected by SAD syndrome but this time the lack of light has been tough.

I’m really keeping my fingers crossed that DS may have a proper graduation ......obv because he deserves It

Snap @QueenCremant I'm looking at that blouse too it looks great on the model, MLC20 gives 20% discount however I'm sure you can get 40%,

For a MU I'd wear a leopard Whistles dress well I would if it fitted me.

Stokey I’m so curious now about your DN! (We accepted A and didn’t apply to DC but fees are similar I think)

Stokey also best of luck to your dd! We didn’t do grammar as too far by PT but there are some great ones. We also had excellent state comprehensive and it’s made me really struggle with decision.

@MarshaBradyo they got an offer from DC, didn't get E, which is cheaper. Don't think they applied for your one but are a little further east, hence the Bexley& Bromley grammars.

Stokey oh fab congrats to DN

If we were meeting up tomorrow I'd wear my grey Great Plains jumpsuit and Office shoe boots (both last worn in London Jan 2020) and a hat - no hair cut/colour since last June so it's not looking its best!

I've been on a self imposed S&B ban for 6 weeks which ends at midnight today (not that I'm counting down the hours) and top of the list is new trainers so interested in the earlier chat. My short list is Veja campo or Air & Grace Cru, can't decide! I have wide feet and love my stans but want a change up.

Shop how do you wear your veja's in? Queen (so pleased you're so happy btw) I like the sound of the A&G platforms, are they the Roxy?

It's great to see this thread has revived and to hear from everyone.

Dry I'm with you on the graduation front - I might start looking for a new frock anyway!

Marvellous it’s so good to hear from you, it’s been a while. Xxx

I have these think Shop steered me in their direction. Love them but am tempted to get some chunkier this summer

Yaay @Themarvellousmrsm lovely to have you back.

Cool trainers @DryWhiteagainW

@Themarvellousmrsm two pairs of socks and a lot of wear around the house. They are quite hard around the backs and ankles

Welcome back MrsM

Gosh I’m glad to see you all back

Feels like a big help after what we’ve all been through (hopefully to keep improving)

Hey mrsm, yes mine are roxy

I just ordered some sandals from R&B after seeing them on P15 of Style. Was going to wait but they are £50 cheaper on the website than stated on the page so I thought I’d better grab them while I could. I’m feeling the Mono Mania vibes that they’re talking about. Looking forward to sunny days being permanent.
So lovely to all be back in here, definitely feels super positive.

@Themarvellousmrsm and @DryWhiteagainW you guys should do your own graduation dress up if the real thing doesn’t go ahead for any reason

On Zoom with champers and everything?!!!! I’m in Marvellous

Great idea @shopafrolic, let's do it @DryWhiteagainW 🍾

I forgot to say @Dreamqueen, I purchased the mylee uv lamp last year, 1st attempt was a bit hit & miss but getting better now. Taking off gel polish is an absolute ballache so use peel off base coat. I don't think it lasts as long but soooo much easier to remove.

Thank you for all the trainer advice. I've purchased the yellow lace up ones this afternoon.

Loving the renewed chat on here.

THemarvellousmrsm my mylee kit arrived yesterday. I started ok and couldn't work out why my thumb nail wasn't curing, then realised that not all the lights were working. That kit is on it's way back to amazon, waiting for a replacement now. Will have a look for the peel off base coat. Thank you.

Forget to say upthread, thats a lovely bag Marsha

Nice blouse Queencremant
