Oh dear, I'm supposed to be writing my essay but anything to distract me...

I have on blue boot cut jeans from H&M, mushroom coloured scoop neck t-shirt with a white one exactly the same underneath for my nod to layering! A pink(ish) cardi (not sure where its from, pressie from Dad years ago) and a grey and white great plains stripey scarf. Oh, and white converse - boring I know...

Just read that back and it sounds a bit revolting but its not I hope promise!

Im revising so lounging on the sofa in: strappy ditsy dress, black leggings, tan glads, black thin grandad cardi, post it notes. Wink

Dark blue Red Herring bootcut jeans
Red plain tshirt under a flowery sleeveless smock top from Next
White knitted cardi just thrown on cos its freezing.

Actually although that sounds rubbish it does all pull together surprisingly well considering I have no decent clothes left post-pregnancy.

OK, here is a link to the Most Comfortable Pants, but sadly from the US Gap site rather than the UK one.

They don't have them on the UK site Sad. Otherwise I'd have replaced my entire knicker drawer with more of them.

I bought mine in Gap in Exeter (I feel sure other branches will have them too Grin) last week because we were away for a few days and I was running low on clean underwear. 3 pairs for a tenner.

Not glamorous, no, but oh so very comfortable.

(When I first met DH, when I was 23, he happened to let slip in conversation that he liked thongs, so I immediately started wearing them Blush. Took me 13 years and three children to realise that I hate thongs, myself. I am now staking my husband's sexual satisfaction on the assumption that he likes me enough for myself for me to resume comfortable pant-wearing).

nude ballet pumps, black leggings and black lycra skirt, this and a nude thin woollen longish cardi. I walked around the shops today and decided I must lose the baby weight now as I can't justify buying anything nice this size. Dd is 6 months this week so enough is enough
