[hoxtonchick]

look, here. bit of a rubbish photo, but it's gorgeous. now i need some clever dressmaking type to copy it in many different fabrics....

how is the office ? oh, you're on holiday now aren't you?

YES!!! ha ha ha ha ha

I would have to see this frock in the flesh methinks, as it were (God I'm knackered) but HC isn't that the 400000th new frock you've had lately, hmmmm???

and M&S on the other corner, biggish food dept

Yes that supermarket thing is a mistake, bring back woollies. And Wimpey (shome mishtake shurely)

tis v strange bundle.
you were with me for much of my frock purchasing versdes .

btw my ghost dress from online sale arrived and I look like one of thsoe old stylee loo roll covers in it, if they had made black broderie anglaise ones...

lol@ that description vers!

That wasn't me, HC,that was was some filthy woman who looks a bit like me and allows her 2-year-old to destroy the peace of sour-faced women in pizza restaurants, then spends £4000000 on cab rides.
I feel quite judgey about women like that.

Sadly accurate bundle, sigh...
I must do work rather than online shopping or will lose case
I must do work rather than online shopping...

god, what kind of person hangs out with losers like that VdS? don't forget psycho cab drivers who were anal about rice cakes...

Meheheh. Can I recommend the Stratford shopping centre for anyone out East who is especially bored in the hols? Large Wooolies, er Peacocks, er MaccyDs. Amazing people-watching although some of it is local teens being searched by the police. Also sniffer dogs at the tube...

it will all be OVER soon. and then you can come & hang out at the lido with us.

btw 2 people (strangers) came up to me yesterday to tell me they loved my souvenir frock

wow, result on the frock. i have made people admire mine .

ps wearing mines with leggings today, v pleasing.

my denim bell sleeve dress just arrived and it is absolutely fabulous. Sort japanesey and v simple.

hooray!

Yuk, it's like workhouse wear. It's all shapeless and baggy and hugely unflattering.

Vile.

Act-u-ally it is freakishly flattering - it's really well-cut 'shapeless', in a way that implies that, underneath, I am ravishing.
