Title says it all!

I get most of my stuff from charity shops but end up with lots of Animal, Debenhams, Rory and Fat Face from them. I like skinny or flailed jeans, fitted bright t shirts and big hoodies. I used to shop at White Stuff and people still buy me vouchers so I buy work dresses from there (I work somewhere casual).

I feel like I've lost my way style wise so this thread has been a big help!

I most but whatever rubbish is on sale at John Lewis. My style can be described as woman who has just given up with bits of linen tossed in.

Zara, Ebay, small boutiques and charity shops are my go to places

Oh some of you sound so stylish! Wish u could see you all. I'm just trying to get my sense of style back after 2 babies, most of my friends are in the same boat. I miss living in a city and seeing people walking around with their own style.

I'd say my style is fairly simple and at the quirky end of mumsy. I mostly shop at t k Maxx and that means I have a decent amount of cashmere and merino, with some hush, boden, gap etc. I've recently shifted a bit of weight and am wearing tight tops tucked into mum jeans which I'm enjoying a lot!

I love capsule wardrobe boards on pinterest, and stuff like project 333 / blogs like www.un-fancy.com for inspiration for outfit combinations

Clean, no messing, very neautral in colours (navy, grey, black, white, some red, tan leather features a great deal).

More interested in shape, drape and fabric than detail. Very clean with no jewellery or embellishment (not even a wedding ring).

Buy from Marni, APC, Margaret Howell, YSL, Jospeh, Chloe, Miu Miu, Sonia Rykiel, Brora, Toast, Cezanne, and vintage.

Classic brands like Burberry, Maxmara, Jaeger and Belstaff can also be fruitful for certain items.

I Love clothes. I don't buy many each season but I buy things I will love for years.

I mainly shop at H&M, TK Mass, primark and charity shops. I like Oliver Bonas, Topshop, Oasis and Warehouse but they are a bit too ££ for me at the moment.

My ideal style in my head is either 'posh hippy' or 'yummy mummy' (bllerrgh at the phrase though) IRL my actual style is probably best described at 'student', 'office drone' or 'mum of toddler' depending on what day it is.
