What Are We Wearing Today???

[MayorNaze]

i am wearing what i like to think of as my faux all saints look (the shop, not the band ):)

black biker boots (barratts, about 900000 years ago)
black mini skirt that is all uneven hems and bits of black net dangling off it (asda via charity shop
black longsleeved tshirt (h&m)
grey boyfriend cardi (sainsbos)

also flesh coloured tights with coloured flowers on (h&m). my MIL saw me and thought i had tattoo'd my legs

today is entitled God Forbid I Should Spend More Than 30 Seconds Not Sorting Out Other People's Messes

the rocket dogs have gone to be re-soled...but the breakage inside the heel at the back cannot be sorted...never mind...

indigo skinnies
dark blue brora thermal-type ls top
brown biker boots

and a pale dusty pink cashmere sweater which I am taking on and off, on and off, because I can't get the temperature right today

hope the rocket dogs get better mayor

from bottom up

brown brogues

Gap baggy leggedy jeans

brown belt

blue stripey long sleeve top

navy cardi 3/4 sleeve

wooden and silver chucnky neklace

Orange and white pinafore, Mayor? Really? I might need to see a pic of that

cyb I do envy a woman who can wear brogues

i am also admiring of ladies who can pull off brogues without looking lke miss trunchbull

Cyb - you know when you go to Next and there is that rack of heinous frocks reduced to pence but that not even Noel Fielding would consider?

i buy them

is about 3 years old so no linky but is orange tweedy on the top, then very thinly quilted orange skirt with white hexagon pattern on bottom, comes to mid-thigh

i have been asked if it was Boden

aquavit - i will pass on your good wishes to the rocket dogs

though i am getting slightly concerned, they have been at the boot place for over a week...maybe the bootman loves them so much he has run off with them...

with brogues- It helps to be 5 ft 9

I will look out for those frocks next time I'm in Next!

• white hexagon pattern is on bottom half of dress, not one's own bottom

nothing would surprise me, mayor (wrt the bootman, not hexagon patterns on your bottom, that is)

I have the height for flat shoes but brogues (anything that shape, really) just look wrong, somehow: too schoolgirl maybe? or it might be that while my legs are good my arse is on the (ahem) generous side. Perhaps they'd work with a miniskirt but all the 16yos round here are working that look so I'd feel a bit of a twat.

I rather fancy the idea of looking like miss trunchbull: perhaps I need to acquire some tweed, too.

Brown calf-length boots
Opaques
Dark denim mini
Pink long-sleeve tee
this cardigan, except mine is in navy
Fuschia scarf

aqua my arse is big too! I wear them with rolled up boyfriendy chinos and no socks in the spring and jeans in t'winter

rolled up boyfriend chinos with brogues: nice, cyb

But, while I'm sure that you don't look like a duck when you wear brogues with skinny jeans, even if you do have [cough] reasonably sized feet (? iirc from ancient shoeboot thread), I can't help thinking that I do.

perhaps it's the feathers

I work from home, and dont have any appointments, so:

thermal walking trousers
blue t-shirt
big old woolley jumper (with holes in)

I'm not going walking or anything, they are just comfy.

Indigo skinny jeans
Navy family under real ls tee
Knee high flat brown leather boots
A sleeping baby...shush...

V casual today.

Damn,stupid phone. Navy cami under teal tee.

I've got a pretty old but much loved charcoal wool mini, a black v-neck, thick black tights and these boots which I adore.

work day today...but having a sneaky break on MN

Aqua I woudl NOT wear brogues with skinny jeans unless they showed a shapley ankle i.e were a little cropped. I would look like a golf club otherwise

black shoes
black opaques
purple silk tulip skirt

black cropped jacket
silver necklace, black leather bracelet

boden petrol wool dress

Ooh I like the sound of that.
