I wanted to start this thread but I see Remus has been having some fun with some spamming person targeting old "WAYW" threads......hopefully this one doesn't get hijacked.

It has been a surprisingly gloriously sunny day here and I have therefore forced encouraged my DCs to be out at the park and then stay outside in the garden. I have been rocking some Alys Fowler chic whilst weeding the flower beds and trying not to get pathetically excited about the remote possibility of spring Hmm

faded TopShop Martha's
navy & white striped mini dress (Anthropologie)
navy slouchy roll neck jumper (H&M)
brown knee high boots (Toast)
emerald green scarf (H&M)

accessorised with the gardener's de rigueur large cup of tea Wink.

ps did put wellies and Musto jacket on over said outfit to dog walk it has to be said. Very excited to not have to wear fetching balaclava and snood ensemble as it is ooooh at least a degree or so above freezing Grin!

VioletGoesVintage · 02/04/2013 19:38

Dark teal, cream and burgundy patterned maxi skirt - quite fitted and clingy, and I don't think I like it anymore
Burgundy and cream striped long sleeved tee - Uniqlo
Burgundy v-neck slouchy merino sweater - Gap
Boots/slippers depending on whether playing football in the garden, tidying up inside or doing the nursery run (one DC does not have half term; is it wrong to shout "hooray"?)

Shortly to change into PJs to drink wine, eat dinner and do some work.

Was wearing black pencil skirt suit and grey snakeskin effect shirt.

Then Gym vest and lycra 3/4 length workout tights.

Now DH's lovely comfy dressing gown and a very red face.

Maybe I've been reading too much Stephen King, Amber?!

Liking the sound of grey snakeprint, Lizzy.

Lizzylou · 02/04/2013 19:53

Oh yes, was working, then did Insanity Pure Cardio, now sat open mouthed like a guppy recovering.

marriedinwhiteagain · 02/04/2013 20:00

Now drinking wine - still smartly turned out and but the wine means I feel pukka.

cogitosum · 02/04/2013 20:04

Today I was wearing a striped maternity bikini from top shop and tonight a dress and summer jacket. I've been swimming in the sea and reading all day and just had dinner now having a drink outside and gone online whilst dh reads guidebook (on holiday in Cyprus) Smile

Love these threads as I always get inspiration from them so thank you all for replying.

Cog am very envious of your bikini-adorned day.

Jumper I feel your pain re hair colour. I asked for icy white blonde on saturday....I am currently sporting at best "yellow". Will be back on friday to have situation rectified.
