Fabulous New Fashion chat - Dressed up or Down - Everyone Welcome!! (Part 3)

Alexnikov

I am cross with the stupid Warehouse website saying things are in stock and then not letting you buy them If anyone can find something that's in stock then it's an extra 20% off marked sale prices, plus free delivery so there are loads of nice dresses for £8...

I closed my facebook account yesterday in the hope of finally getting rid of my abusive stalker, it just wasn't worth the hassle anymore.

I had a bit of a Boots splurge yesterday while there was 3for 2 on No7 and I had a voucher and bought some Barry M crackle effect. I am properly smitten with it, can't wait to do black and white nails for football

Me today (in the office):
Black and white Calvin Klein fitted jersey dress (birthday present from my Momma)
Black American Apparel shawl cardigan (present from the aussie)
Black tights
Tan Mary Janes (New Look)
Red trench coat (Primark a few years ago - customised by me with some rather psycheadelic buttons)

I am happy my hairband I ordered from etsy turned up for the wedding I am going to tomorrow http://www.etsy.com/listing/58769587/oak-leaf-headband-apple-green-with-teal?ref=sr_gallery_10&ga_search_query=oak+hair&ga_search_type=handmade&ga_page=&order=&includes%5B0%5D=tags&includes%5B1%5D=title

I shall be wearing it with a green vintage 70s chiffon dress I rescued from the bag of salvage (it was originally a maxi but the bottom was torn to bits, so it is now knee length) and my vintage burberry trench which was Mum's. I'll take my camera x

Definitely dressed down today - woke up with half my face massively swollen and in excruciating pain after a RCT i had a couple of days ago, so i couldn't be bothered to get dressed in anything else but ..

Dark grey leggings - M&S ( must say - the most comfortable pair i have ever owned)
Long floral babydoll dop - Primark
White & pink fluffy dressing gown - TU at Sainsbury's

It's another nippy and sunless day today. I'm not dressed properly yet and still can't decide what to have for breakfast, so will wait until lunch time arrives!

RW - I love Etsy. I bought this yesterday after being inspired by this thread to write instead of email. I love writing letters! Also, who is this stalker? We should all stalk him/her back and see how they like it.*

*I jest!

Hi,

Wearing a sparkly pink jumper, black shorts, tights and shoes.

On a half day - hurrah. My friend Paul's arriving for a weekend of Glasgow fun. I'm going to have to break the news to him that he needs to escort me to my nephew's 3rd birthday party in Fife tomorrow! Wine will ease the pain hopefully!

Afternoon All!

Just back from swimming and charity shopping.

Facebook? Great resource for sharing photographs and keeping in touch with people I've met at festivals and whilst travelling. I don't ever post what I'm up to as quite frankly I find it all very tedious. My solicitor pal finds it invaluable for stalking bankrupts and errant husbands.

Twitter? What's the point?

Today's outfit:
Vintage 1960's tweed suit with fake fur collar (Sue Ryder)
High heeled lace up brogues (BHF)
Vintage brown velvet wired beret (Jumble sale)
Black opaques
Chunky leather waist belt (Salvation Army)
Mustard chandelier earrings and silver rings and bangles (India)

(Jon reckons I'm channelling Charlotte Grey today)

Gazillions of parcels to wrap and maybe some sewing before a 7pm jumble sale.

Love the sound of your outfit Vix Charlotte Grey though? That's high up on my list of Extremely Tedious Books.

Alex....no! I love Sebastian Fawkes, Birdsong is one of my favourite all-time reads.

Alexnikov

Oh I can't get on with his books at all. I don't know what it is about them - I should love them, given the subject matter.

goanmad

Yes, I thought you'd have loved them, too.

My Dad always moans about his literary style but I find his writing compelling.

By the way, what shoe size are you?
