For no reason other than I'm bored and nosey really!

Mine is a quilted trophy jacket, I bought earlier in the year on sale. I thought it would be useful on chilly mornings and I'm so pleased I bought it as its perfect for this purpose. I can chuck it on over a basic top and jeans style outfit and I look instantly put together and I'm not freezing!

I can't link as its not available anymore but if anyone replies, feel free to link your favourites! Wink

An oversize chambray denim shirt from Next. Covers bum and lumpy bits and can wear with leggings, skinnies and shorts. It's v useful. I'm also loving my white denim skinny crops from Next too which were my fave when sun was shining (it's gone now though) Grin

Monsoon mid wash Skye jeans. Feel like I've had them for years, an old friend. Bought them last week and can't bear to take them off.

Seasalt needlecord tunic with a tulip print. So soft and not too hot. Also can breastfeed in it as buttons go quite low.

My cocktail dress Bought for a trip to Manhattan with DH a couple of weeks ago.

I bought a pair of straight leg black trousers that are sort of like jeans from Marks and Spencer for work and omg the comfort. They fit so nicely and because they have some stretch in them I can breathe too .
Wearing them with flats and a denim jacket to work and I actually feel a bit trendy.

My long black h and m tshirt it's a bit boring but it's just a really flattering fit and covers my hips and I can wear it with anything.

Either that or my Zara reversible silky bomber, black on one side khaki green on the other love it.

A lovely long shirt from Jet in a nice silky fabric that doesn't make me sweat. Looks ace with black jeans and smokey eyes for evenings or neutral make up for day.

Also a grey and blush pink striped jersey sweater. I just love it. Not very glam or sexy or cool but comfy and practical but not boring or frumpy. From a local super market.

Bloody lovely frock slug

TroubleinDaFamily · 17/05/2016 16:41

My size 8 skinny jeans. I used to be an 18.

Every cloud, every cloud. Grin

TroubleinDaFamily · 17/05/2016 16:43

Very grown up Slug.

I got a yellow leather biker jacket from Zara last week I haven't worn it yet but I'm enjoying looking at it on the hanger every day and imagining all the fab outfits I'll wear it with 😍 😂

RedLipsBigWings · 17/05/2016 16:49

Mine is this denim dress. It looks great with low tops and with sandals and the faint acid wash gives it a wee bit of edge. I'm only short so it's the perfect length and 100% cotton too.

Not a shop I usually go into but glad I did this time 😃.

TwoLittleBlooms · 17/05/2016 16:50

Mine is a little white bolero cardi I bough from Monsoon quite some years ago - absolutely love it and unlike most of my other clothes has remained looking like new. It still looks good even though I am bigger now (not sure how that works though!).

TwoLittleBlooms · 17/05/2016 16:52

Oh and gorgeous dress Slug!

hollieberrie · 17/05/2016 16:56

My GAP girlfriend jeans. I luffs them Grin Make me feel all chilled and weekendy.

FarelyKnuts · 17/05/2016 16:56

Has to be my black skinny (ha ha I'm a fat fucker) jeans. I went back and bought 2 more pairs because they fit exactly right. No droop, nice stretch and no shrink of leg length in the wash.

OneNightTimeMenaceStrikesBack · 17/05/2016 17:59

my newest jeans which are high waisted skinnies from primark. they fit beautifully on the hips AND waist which for me is a miracle and i'm even more chuffed as they are two sizes smaller than the jeans size i was this time last year

KatharinaRosalie · 17/05/2016 18:37

Tommy Hilfiger coral straight jeans I bought some weeks ago. Very flattering - the waist is just the right height. Smart enough so I also wear them to work with blazers and shirts.

MNetter15 · 17/05/2016 18:40

River Island Amelie White skinny jeans

MizK · 17/05/2016 18:46

Ralph Lauren cricket jumper. Perfect for this time of year as it's fairly lightweight and I love it. (despite the fact that I've been mocked by old men for wearing it on two separate occasions....'Are you opening the batting, young lady?'

MizK · 17/05/2016 18:47

Coral jeans....I'm v intrigued! Are they hard to style?

Floisme · 17/05/2016 18:50

My Me & Em ruched jersey skirt. Coming up to 5 years old and still makes me feel like Marilyn Monroe. Plus it's supremely comfortable, perfect for those dreaded smart/casual occasions and has been washed to buggery without bobbling.

So why, Me & Em did you stop making them, hmm?
Luckily the new Boden version isn't bad either.

MyFriendsCallMeOh · 17/05/2016 18:58

Last years birkis. They were looking trashed so I painted them with leather copper glitter paint, very pleased with the results wondering what other shoes I can glitter up

Miz I think they go beautifully with tons of things. Navy for example, turquoise, grey, some greens, white of course.

dreamerlemur · 17/05/2016 19:02

Red Herring skinny cords and like FarelyKnuts I ain't skinny. Your post made me laugh. But these cords and just sooooo comfortable. Who cares?
