Black opaques
Black biker boots
A blacky/grey and white tie dye effect tight top with a low scoop neck and pink and white rhinestone crown on the front. My mate bought it back from the states for me Blush.

Desigual skirt, a bit like this but in black and red - cost about 40 euros from Barcelona

Mini denim skirt from Next
Red t-shirt from Dunnes
Long navy cardi from Primark

Oh dear, I think it's almost the same as last time I posted on one of these threads, except it's a different colour t-shirt today. Seems to be like a uniform for me. Must do something about that.

Going out for dinner tonight though and trying to decide what to wear...need inspiration...

dexter73 · 03/09/2010 10:45

Actually it is this skirt but in black/red.

minervaitalica · 03/09/2010 10:49

Grey Reiss pencil skirt with front ruched panel
Stripey man shirt in various tones of grey(TM Lewin)
Theory grey belt
Light grey sandals by Geox

No tights as not cold enough down here!

TheNextMrsDepp · 03/09/2010 10:49

Can't believe you're all in boots - it's still summer in Surrey, and I REFUSE to dust mine off until October at the earliest.

I'm wearing:
Patterned strappy top from Red Herring at Debenhams
Cut-off denims from charity shop
Short sleeved long grey cardi from New Look
and FLIP FLOPS!

MaineGirl · 03/09/2010 10:54

Doodleydoo · 03/09/2010 10:54

The3Bears · 03/09/2010 10:58

Just going to jump in:

Topshop jamie jeans

Really boring today just playing in garden with ds :)

traceybath · 03/09/2010 11:10

I have changed black boots for grey shoe-boots - just thought I'd update Wink

tulpe · 03/09/2010 11:15

I love reading what other people are wearing....I always hope for inspiration and usually find it on here :)

Just been for 2 hour dog walk and about to do housework so currently in:

straight leg jeans (Next)
navy vest (Tesco)
navy hoody (A&F)
converse

but will be changing into either:

teal silk tea dress (Marc Jacobs)
black leather flip flops (Faith)

or

Khaki jersey maxi (TK Maxx)
gold leather sandals (Next)

decisions, decisions!!

Giddyup · 03/09/2010 11:21

That black new look jersey Maxi Dress (again), its the only thing I feel human in, with a raspberry pink vest underneath. I had green fake converse on earlier and was planning on getting a denim jacket later, but then I realised I would be completely channelling Sam-Cam. So I am unsure now.

MayorNaze · 03/09/2010 14:37

the boden boots are from last years sale and have a rather fetching yellow zip. not everybodies cup of cappucino but i love them. and they have a hidden platform in the sole so are not nearly as high as they look Wink

got moisturiser on blue waistcoat thingy so have changed for

navy cropped tie up cardy - boden via charity shop - £2.50 Grin

OP posts:
Wheelybug · 03/09/2010 14:43

Jeans (gap)
Boat neck 3/4 length boat neck (think that's what you call it) top blue and white stripes (monsoon)
Earlier - purple patent ballet pumps (mini boden)
later - silver converse (cos I can't wear the ballet pumps in so they always end up hurting my heels - grrr)
