Which colour wayfarers did you get Amber? I have slightly graduated grey ones and adore them. I have lots of sunglasses but the wayfarers feel so easy to wear even though they're quite heavy.

QueenMaeve · 22/05/2012 22:03

H&m khaki/ grey skinny trousers, black lacy brocadey type top from Fenn Wright Manson and khaki silk knit shruggy thingy.

AmberNectarine · 22/05/2012 22:24

I got totally black ones, to compliment my Winter colouring, if you believe in all that colours hokum Wink

I realised today I only had one crappy pair of Accessorize sunnies (specs wearer, who shouldn't be so lazy about contacts) so sought to rectify the situation immediately!

Every time someone starts a thread like this, I am wearing scratty old jamas which I have been in all day, no make up, scragged back hair. Just generally look a state.

Can you ask again on Thursday, I will probably look ok then! Grin

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 23/05/2012 09:35

Remus, I will investigate Kenzo Flower as well!

whackamole, me too! I work in an office two days a week but these threads always come up when I'm working at home, in yoga trousers and a dreadful old cardigan.

Perhaps the trick is to start your own thread when you're happy with what you're wearing. Grin

Work (I am always at bloody work)

  • black and white striped draped jersey dress with tulip skirt (M&S a few years ago: was a MN rec from maybe Cybbo)
  • cropped black linen blazer (M&S Limited)
  • red ballet flats (Clarks)
  • a hot and bothered frown

I sound horribly mumsy today and I want to be swanning around in white brorderie anglaise and flip flops. Grrrrrr.

Hush charcoal joggers
New Look blue linen vest

And matt gold HAVAIANAS! Quite excited to be wearing them, they emerged from my wardrobe like long lost friends.

Blue-green short-sleeved shirt-dress, French Connection
Lime-green footless tights
Pewter ballet flats
Purple La Perla Bra
Green Gap knickers
Cropped chocolate-brown cardigan for this evening, although am hoping it'll stay warm enough that I don't need it

Shinyshoes1 · 24/05/2012 13:29

A white t-shirt with a big black heart on it which DP tells me looks like a pyjama top Hmm

Grotty old scrunchie in ponytail as didn't have time to wash hair TM Smile

But my proud item of the day is my Lancaster Sunlight Bronzing Palette which I used for the first time this morning - it's luffly. I've had four different people so far today tell me I look lovely/fresh/bright despite feeling like a pigs arse and I'm putting it down to that Smile
