I'm 28 and all I see in shops is crop tops(shudder)
I'm deffo too old for those.
I like shops like Zara/Topshop/H&M/whistles etc
I have no idea what's even in fashion anymore.
Today I have a pair of river island washed black ankle grazer jeans on with a white top and a cream fitted blazer from Zara and in stuck for what shoes..

Oops, for those not in the podiatry circles, I meant to have put 'PF' for plantar fasciitis (sp? low arches)

Hate to say it but River Island joggers are super comfy got in black and khaki and got a print pair but too wacky so sold on eBay they were snapped up sold well!

I'm wearing this today with black leggings and black suede ankle boots and gold bird necklace.

I like how I should be able to wear this for autumn/winter - layered etc.,

Off work today. Wore a black shirt dress and tan and black ballet pumps.

Twinklestar2 · 07/07/2016 09:12

Back at work today so in black velvet skinny jeans, leopard print sandals and this in orange which always gets me compliments whenever I wear it, even from my mother so it must look good Grin

PNGirl · 07/07/2016 12:13

Hush Jessica dress (navy front, grey back) and trainers today. Kind of going for Sports Luxe/smart version of a t shirt dress.

LaConnerie · 07/07/2016 13:00

Am wearing boyfriend jeans rolled up a bit and a short sleeved Breton top.

Yes I know it's dull Smile

BlueEyedWonder · 07/07/2016 17:30

Another trawl of the ship's the other day and noted voluminous sleeves on tops, espadrilles, trophy jackets, rucksacks

Today I'm wearing dark blue slim bootcut jeans. Are they having a moment again or not?! Gold heels, ivory broderie top, trench with the sleeves pushed up to make it look vaguely summer like!

SuperFlyHigh · 07/07/2016 18:01

Wearing old oasis black floral print sort of skater dress with h&m footless tights. The dress has peachy pink, sage green etc but i really like it.

Saw lots of people in white floaty top things today which I don't suit but look cool in this humidity. Am trying on an Indian cotton shirt dress tomorrow it could do for work.

Twinklestar2 · 08/07/2016 20:52

Today I wore some black cropped trousers and a black loose vest with flowers on.

ArieltheMermaid1720 · 08/07/2016 21:41

Today I'm wearing gap girlfriend jeans, sparkly sandals, a dark grey t-shirt and light grey blazer.

IWannaHoldYourHand · 08/07/2016 21:42

Now I have on topshop mum jeans, and a grey t-shirt with Queen Bee a cross the front. I've only had this on since 7pm, for most of today I wore a black pinnacle dress and a grey body.

I like pinafores, shirt dresses, swingy hippy dresses, baggy-ish jeans and checked shirts. They all seem pretty easy to find at the minute so I'm happy. The body I wore today was bloody impractical though.

I wore to work yesterday an Italian cheap boutique brand of jeans, red Warehouse tshirt, red louche cardigan, patterned H&M plimsolls. In the evening when I went out for a date I swapped tops for a floral oasis top with broiderie Anglais sleeve detail and Nicole Farhi black leather jacket. Wore whistles small chain earrings which go with everything.

SuperFlyHigh · 09/07/2016 12:39

Talking of trends I had wanted to get a Bardot/cold shoulder top but where I work is dire in terms of only H&M and primark etc for shops. I didn't want it cotton but also not striped either. When out last week at a naice and fairly trendy pub I saw a woman wearing this so ordered it. Hope it's nice on as I love the pattern.

I think Bardot and cold shoulder are different.

The one you linked is Bardot (big low neckline)

Cold shoulder is when there are cutouts.

There's also an intermediate thing that is like your top but with thin straps to help hold it up.

SuperFlyHigh · 09/07/2016 18:41

ah Trills you are right! Just googled it. I was wondering about 'cold shoulder' - I actually bought a cold shoulder dress from Top Shop recently - a floral one and that is like you say, with cut outs.

Tried on my online order and the New Look idiots had sent 2 size 12s (which were too big) rather than a 10 and a 12, am returning to shop tomorrow and have had a 10 put aside.

Trills · 10/07/2016 01:41

They sent 2 the same? Ugh. That's really annnoying!

SuperFlyHigh · 10/07/2016 10:03

Trills I'd have had to return one of them anyway one would be too small or too big etc but the nearest New Look is a car ride away, there isn't one near my work... having said that... there is one I could go to after work.

Trills · 10/07/2016 11:47

You'd have had to return one, but you might also have had one that fitted!

SuperFlyHigh · 10/07/2016 12:03

Trills yeah I know right?! Now I have to try on the 10 in humid heat and driving there shortly which was one thing I didn't relish...

Twinklestar2 · 10/07/2016 12:23

Yesterday I wore a black lace skirt, white vest, denim jacket and leopard print flat sandals. Went to a festival. Smile

ElaeudanlaTeiteia · 10/07/2016 14:31

I am wearing Boden PJ bottoms, a Discworld t-shirt and this cashmere boyfriend jumper which I received this week and which is so perfect I could weep Grin. Been after something like this for ages - it's just pure, pure comfort. So loose and slouchy but hangs so well. And the warmth is like that warmth I used to get pre-kids when I'd wake up late and just lounge in bed in that half-awake, half-asleep blissful state (doesn't happen any more, alas).

So yeah, I love my new jumper Blush so much so I immediately bought the blue one too

Twinklestar2 · 11/07/2016 11:27

Yesterday I was just mooching around the house in shorts and a vest.

Today I’m at work so blush-coloured top, burgundy jeggings, leopard print flat sandals.

Twinklestar2 · 13/07/2016 16:22

Oh please can we keep this thread going, I love hearing about what people are wearing!

Today I’m at work so in faded black jeans, white scoop neck fitted tee and a denim jacket. Spotty espadrilles Grin.
