It shop arrive tomorrow along with one or two other bits (well my birthday present to me!). Had great time trying on lots of different stuff with varying degrees of sense but providing my friend with much amusement ;-) Loved the lined trench but would prefer a longer one so debating that one - might have to order whilst the codes work so have a few extra weeks to look for alternatives....<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10931794995313866116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2534534978347181935.post-64249986010289447352015-09-19T00:52:51.784-07:002015-09-19T00:52:51.784-07:00Kat you're hilarious drinking champagne to cel...Kat you're hilarious drinking champagne to celebrate it being the day before your child's birthday, how fabulously decadent! <br /><br />Like the look of that skinny sleeve jumper xStrawberry Blonde Beautyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05402011611591634516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2534534978347181935.post-31774523863713709182015-09-18T15:04:42.805-07:002015-09-18T15:04:42.805-07:00I was at the pop up shop too today!!

I'm sure if you order it and there's a problem, you could return it.

So I would say either an ankle boot that low vamp, sneakers, skater shoes or I love the idea of a brogue..... For heels you could always wear a strappy glad sandal.... (although it's not exactly Wintery...)

Was looking at my potential 'Autumn' wardrobe the other day and, thanks to you,there are some key pieces I purchased last year that you featured on your blog. #1: the curzon coatigan in navy from Boden #2: 2beautiful Baukjen dresses oh and a black jumpsuit (I'd never HEARD of Baukjen until your blog!) #3: 3 me+Em tops in navy, plum and a layering shirt (again, never heard of me+Em before doesmybum-cue gasps) The list goes on but basically, quality staples that I'm actually looking forward to wearing again that make me feel classy (!) rather than loathing all my one-wear wonders I was in the habit of buying. So, basically, here's to you for helping me look at my wardrobe in a different way-your blog is pretty darn awesome.

It makes me wonder whether the material would look really creased and scruffy after a few hours of wearing? Any thoughts?

If I could solve the navy opaque problem then I may be tempted & I just can't go down the American Tan tight route (yep - first world problems I know!). Good job the pop up shop is on the other side of the country though - not sure I could resist temptation!

I ended up ordering the charcoal boyfriend one (but in Medium - hope it won't be too small!) and the black cashmere V-neck in M/L. I'm usually a UK12 so really hoping medium will be ok. I would LOVE the brown sugar b/f jumper (and it looks amazing on you) but I think I would get way more wear out of charcoal.

I have cuffed trousers similar to the leg of this jumpsuit, as I was rushing for work recently I popped a pair of 3" boots on with it, I caught a glimpse of the look in the ladies toilers and it wasn't good. Please could you give ideas on how to wear low heeled shoes/boots with the jumpsuit , so it can be worn in everyday situations.
