Am in need of inspiration for weekend slouching around outfits now the weather is turning more autumnal (bright and sunny here but distinctly cooler than of late).

Red skinny jeans (Johnnie B)
breton tee (H&M)
Navy lambswool cardi (Marisa Christina via TK Maxx)
bronze ballet flats (Repetto)

Yes I am lazy today.

Tatty grey jumper from French Connection
Scruffy jeans from nowhere in particular - they are approximately 2000 years old so probably belong in a museum
Ballet pumps from Hobbs
Hair scrunched up anyhow in a pony tail
No make up

I'm entirely useless at being a girl. Unfortunately I have to effect a marvellous transformation for a posh do tonight. Grim.

Currently gym trousers and a tee shirt as I have just exercised.

However, I feel a bit miserable about the change in the weather here - overcast and very cold - so I am going to cheer myself up by having a shower and then putting together an outfit for going to Tescos in based around the need to wear these (second from the right)which arrived today.
It will probably take the form of a sweater dress with opaques and scarf.

tulpe · 18/09/2010 16:14

TB and Laurie - I'm not ready yet to wear opaques. I know it is cold enough to don them but I somehow cannot bring myself to do so

Howstheserenity - you sound very cosy :)

Quattrocento - where are you off to this eve? What are you planning on wearing?

Cain - loving the sound of your chic Tesco outfit!

I was wearing Gap Curvy jeans, a t-shirt and a little military-style jacket. I am now wearing slob pants and a pink cashmere jumper.

TheFallenMadonna · 18/09/2010 16:21

I'm also wearing Gap curvy jeans, plus a FatFace stripey t shirt and a Phase Eight long cardigan. And blue suede trainers.

BelligerentGhoul · 18/09/2010 16:22

i tried to buy some new curvy jeans today but the dark denim ones had strange pockets at the back.

RaisedFromPerdition · 18/09/2010 16:23

A skirt I made out of curtain remnants

Grey tights

Dr Martens boots (brown with gold flowers)

A grey cardigan by Pachamama from the charity shop

A t-shirt with the slogan 'I don't belong in style and beauty'

TheFallenMadonna · 18/09/2010 16:24

These will have to last a bit longer then. I really feel that my bottom does not need more detail.

ThatDamnDog · 18/09/2010 16:25

DP's trackie bottoms, a Matalan vest and a huge grey Evans cardie. And bright green Crocs.

In my defence, I'm 39 weeks pregnant and we've not long got in from a long soggy trudge refreshing walk in the pissing rain fresh air.

Tonight I shall undergo a transformation as I slip into a large fluffy Tesco dressing gown and some ASDA joggers for X Factor.

I can't wait to not be pregnant any more!

Nice boots Cain :)

whydobirdssuddenlyappear · 18/09/2010 16:28

Bootcut tight Miss Sixty jeans with elderberry stains all over them.
Enormous dodgy 80s jumper
Rainbow stripy socks.

Wish this was yesterday. I made an effort to look stylish then :)

GeorginaWorsley · 18/09/2010 16:41

Monsoon dark indigo jeans
White Sainsbury's tee
Black open drapey cardigan from East
Leopard print ballet flats from Boden
Grey and whitre striped scarf from gift shop in Cornwall

Silver bangle from Wallis.

Tulpe must admit I can't bring myself to wear opaques yet,so have worn trousers all week.

MayorNaze · 18/09/2010 16:53

i hate this weather - is neither cold enough for woolies nor warm enough for summer clothes. i stood in front of the wardrobe in my undies bellowing "i have nothing to wear" much to the chagrin of dh. and possibly the neighbours as well. but i am now indeed clothed and wearing:

purple vest top
fuschia pink wrap around ballet type cardi
grey silky knee length skirt with pink flower print
and, because it was all looking a bit twee and mumsie - black biker boots Grin

and now i am cold Angry

MayorNaze · 18/09/2010 16:55

i was wearing navy 3/4 lengths, wellies and a beatles tshirt to garden earlier, was lovely and warm then :(

MayorNaze · 18/09/2010 16:56

Cain - i want all of the boots in your link Envy

Lulumaam · 18/09/2010 16:57

wide leg jeans and a blue & white striped tunic top , blue croc flipflops which serve as slippers.

ArghMyEyesMyEyes · 18/09/2010 16:59

Blimey, you lot are a smartly dressed bunch (mostly!) Shock

I am (as usual) in jeans.
Blue and white floaty shirt
Green Cardi
and
Shoes from schuh, but I think I'll be in my slippers before too long.

BudaisintheZONE · 18/09/2010 17:04

PJs! Grey Autograph ones from M&S. With a hole in the leg courtesy of our puppy.

Had stonking stonking stonking hangover this morning so kept going back to bed. Then figured I was putting these PJs in wash anyway so if I just stayed in them all day I am saving the environment by not dirtying clothes!

Will transform shortly as having colleagues of DH over for dinner.

I too am in total denial of the weather so am planning on wearing white jeans and a summery top. It has long sleeves though.

MollieO · 18/09/2010 17:08

White three-quarter length sleeved tshirt and dark biege/light brown cropped trousers, birkies. Feel very underdressed reading this thread but thought I looked quite weekend smart.
