Swears By: Mumsnet recommends November 2018

Good afternoon all!

As some of you may know, here at MNHQ we trawl the boards each week to pick out the products MNers are 'swearing by'.

You may already receive our weekly Swears By newsletter, but you can also find a round-up of all of the products here on our Swears By page.

The style and beauty boards were full of autumn officewear recommendations last week. @SheSparkles recommended this Debenhams Mantaray Cotton Dress (£39), saying “I have this on right now – still in cropped leggings and loafers as it’s been lovely today but I bought it with tights and boots in mind. I predict the world will be sick of me wearing it!”

Remember to let us know if there's something you've been loving and recommending this week for the chance to win £100 of Amazon vouchers. We'll pick a winner and announce them (and their must-have product) in December's first Swears By newsletter.

We might add a link into your post if we think it would be helpful.

And, if you want to be first to know about the next cult product, make sure you sign up to the newsletter here.

Mumsnet Swears By is free and independent from advertising but if you buy something through our posts, we may get a small share of the sale. You can find out more here.

Mantaray annoys me so much. It's one of the very few places now that sells cotton at a reasonable price, but nearly everything is blue. I HATE blue.

Just discovered Autograph mascara is it very good to use and long staying goes on beautifully

Hi everyone,

As some of you may know, each week we take a look at the boards to see which products MNers are 'swearing by'.

You may already receive our weekly Swears By newsletter, but you can also find a round-up of all of the products you've been recommending here on our Swears By page.

This week there was a lot of love for this Uniqlo Merino Crew Neck Jumper, £24.90, with @70isaLimitNotaTarget saying "it's gorgeous; very fine knit and easy to layer." It comes in 13 colours, too, so there's bound to be one to match the rest of your wardrobe.

I don't think much to the picture above, it really doesn't make me want to buy it BUT of course it's how you wear it that counts!

Cropped leggings with a dress is just the most peculiar sartorial decision.

There's an H&M jersey dress that is fabulous - it's thick jersey, doesn't really crease & hangs well.

I wore it for a conference & felt great. For some reason I can't link but here's a screen shot.

I bought it in charcoal & deep red and wish they did more colours.

I 100% swear by these JoJo striped nursing tops. Had 2 for 15 months now and have worn them to death and they are still in amazing condition which is almost impossible for nursing wear! They have washed and dryed really well and offer discreet feeding and are so comfy and stylish. £26 and come in 7 colours and you get £5 off when you order two Grin www.jojomamanbebe.co.uk/breton-stripe-nursing-tops-b4431.html

Hi everyone - thanks for your recommendations so far!

We've got something a little different for you this week - @Sparkingfizzing has found the answer to all our dry heel woes: the Newtons Foot Therapy Chiropody Sponge (£2.45), which she says is the "single best thing" she has ever bought for her feet. After all, even if they spend most of the winter in socks and boots it's important to show our trotters tootsies some TLC.

@HannahGMumsnet


Is there a December thread for this?

I wanted to recommend my fleece blazer - it's warm for winter but looks smarter than a cardigan and comes in a range of colours and sizes (including petite/tall/plus) - I have two!

Hi there @tubspreciousthings - thanks so much for your recommendation! Yes, you can indeed find a December Swears By thread here - albeit a much depleted one.

I'll be starting a January thread next week too, so keep your eyes peeled.
