I have these

www.marksandspencer.com/block-heel-knee-boots-with-insolia/p/p22471471?image=SD_01_T02_8769A_Y0_X_EC_90&color=BLACK&prevPage=plp

and they are SO comfortable and warm. Seriously! I've been running around in them today since 8am helping with a house move, only just taken them off and my feet feel fine. The reviews are bad - mine would be 5* but i couldn't be arsed to make an account which you have to to leave a review. Yes they slip down a bit over time when not over jeans, but i just hoike them up again.

I'll go. Haven't seen them in the flesh but I like the look of these shoes. Very similar to an Isabel Marent pair I had my eye on for a lot more £££.

I also like this utility shirt

EggsEleven · 11/02/2017 15:32

I quite like this jumper in black

CantChoose · 11/02/2017 15:34

I love these www.marksandspencer.com/silk-and-lace-floral-printed-camisole/p/p60087364#P60087363%23Joined%20Line
Which I wear with the French knickers as pj's. I manage to find the odd top for work in there too. Oh, and swimsuits! Only the block colour ones, the prints are usually a bit garish.

EggsEleven · 11/02/2017 15:45

this looks handy to wear with skirts

EggsEleven · 11/02/2017 15:47

I bought this in navy recently it looks a bit shit in their photo but it looks nice with jeans with a tartan check shirt underneath

MumBod · 11/02/2017 15:47

Now, I like that utility shirt and the black jumper! Quite edgy...

See, that jumper with frills across the widest part of my body would make me look about 14 months pregnant.

Ooh that cami is cute.

See? We're building up a wearable collection...

quite Hush-like

these trousers look ok for summer rolled up with white trainers

EggsEleven · 11/02/2017 16:19

In grey. Not the hideous yellow.

EggsEleven · 11/02/2017 16:46

A lot of the time it's their website styling and photos that are the problem. these looked ok in the shop. More of a relaxed fit skinny jogger that were quite Hush-esque (haven't tried them on though) which a nice faux leather ankle lace detail. Here the model just looks like she's thrown on a pair of leggings to go to the gym and I wouldn't look twice at them.

This lipstick they commissioned from Rosie Huntington Whiteley is lovely:

MumBod · 11/02/2017 16:53

I like those lace detail leggings.

Agreed, the styling and photography is awful.

If they pared back the collection by about two thirds and got some half decent stylists and photographers in, it wouldn't be bad at all.

I recently bought two mock wrap dresses from M&S which I really like and are flattering. But no longer on the website so I can't link.

Also have the basic patent heels in three colours for work. Comfy enough to wear around the office without making me want to cut my ankles off at the end of the day.

I have a couple of really nice cashmere pyjama bottoms not dissimilar to these I bought just before Xmas, super comfy.

The PJ top to match is lovely llama. I'd wear that out and about!
