Thought I would add a little something to the usual "WAYW" threads Smile

I woke up this morning feeling the need for bohemian chic in which to enjoy this beautifully warm autumnal sunshine.

Teal silk flared midi skirt (Zara via charity shop)
Teal long sleeve tee (White Stuff) layered beneath:
Pale grey slouchy short sleeve tee with sequin heart detail (from small local boutique - no label other than "made in Italy")
ASOS Aggie Boots with ankle socks and bare legs.

Beige Topshop chinos
Navy long sleeve top
Primark burgundy zip up hoody thing
Navy converse

Well, I'm wearing:

M&S Autograph boxy oatmeal jumper
Warehouse denim miniskirt
Black opaques
Black Topshop Mighty boots
Primark oatmeal/blue/red/black "leopard" print

Why? Well, we were supposed to be off for a mooch around the shops, but after a mutiny from the DDs I'm staying home and DH has gone alone. So I'm feeling a little overdressed for an afternoon slobbing on the sofa.

Willowme - thank you. Your outfit is pretty much what I wore yesterday!

CointreauVersial sorry to hear your shopping afternoon was scuppered. Like the sound of your outfit though and why not enjoy slobbing out stylishly? :)

Am resisting the temptation to get changed into trackies and manky teeshirt. Grin

Light grey dress, with teeny white skulls on it.
Light grey scarf with darker grey velvet skulls on it
Denim jeggings.
Grey boyfriend cardi.
Black biker boots.

Wearing it because the jeggings have an elasticated waist. I had surgery a few weeks ago and anything tight is too uncomfortable . And I like skulls Grin

Ancient long sleeved grey cashmere-alike jumper dress with hole in the elbow, can't remember where it was from originally; teal woolly tights that refuse to stay up properly and on close inspection are going a little bobbly, rather worn out slipper-boots from Accessorize. Hair up in a scrunchy and no make up. Am having a slobby day while writing my assignment for my course.

Long green tunic top from Holy clothing (worn with a purple long sleeve t shirt under - doesn't show) and black m&s trousers. This accessorised by my stylish Grin Sainsburys slippers and a non matching blue cardi of ancient origin!!
Just slobbing around at home!!
