Slippers inside, wellies outside - we're v rural. No need for the others.

What are you not using at all?

@GolfForBrains where do you get the earrings from? Sound exactly what I need!

@wishuponarainbow The poster was recommending Astley Clarke real diamond ones, but I got these to try them - working well so far! uk.accessorize.com/view/product/uk_catalog/acc_2,acc_2.4/8819149600?skipRedirection=true

Actually not those ones! Some slightly smaller ones also from Accessorize!

If you buy sleeper earrings with hinges you can leave them in almost permanantly. They're incredibly comfortable. DD and I swapped to these the first day of lockdown and have worn no other jewellery since. I have a wardrobe of earrings that I simply can't be arsed to wear, though occasionally I confuse my colleagues by wearing lipstick for conference calls, something I rarely do in normal life.

@slug @GolfForBrains thank you both so much! I've a feeling this is going to be a game changer for me!!

Also braless, bloody love it.

No makeup, no nail polish, not bothering with hair other than clean will do, living in sweats. It's a refreshing break from making sure I present well.

I've had sleeper earrings for about 10 years. They're so pretty and convenient, especially with young children.

Not used handbag in almost 4 weeks

Handbag no
A little makeup yes

Even in lockdown I don’t want to look ancient! 😂
