I am feeling very uninspired after ordering a couple of things that were disappointing and sending them back. We are having a lunch at a posh London restaurant followed by drinks.

I’m wearing a moss green blouse, black velvet skirt and brick red heels. Possibly fishnet tights. Tuxedo blazer and faux fur stole.

Well out "party" is a trip to the local Christmas market followed by a meal at a French restaurant, so I need to be warm.
I am wearing a pair of dark green, velvet trousers and a navy cashmere polo neck with an interesting "feature" on the back. Probably a pari of navy loafers and my duvet jacket. Not at all glamorous or exciting, but appropriate for the occasion.
I will jazz the jumper up with a necklace or pearls.

Black velvet wide legged jumpsuit (whistles). It's black tie but don't feel like wearing a dress...

MrsBadger · 11/12/2017 13:51

the Phase 8 'shutter' dress from tumpty-tum years ago again.

Our boss is taking us for lunch and drinks at a local fancy pub.

Going to wear an embroidered, black shift dress from Zara with opaque tights and some dark red, patent ankle boots.

We have had ours. I wore black leggings with a black vest and a translucent black long floral over shirt, plus heeled ankle boots. It was a meal out followed by a few drinks.

Nothing. I don't have a work party to go to. So I'm staying at home in my pyjamas. Sad

Wasn't sure about the length but it looks lovely on and I feel comfortable in it.

We have a very posh do at a local country hall hotel so I wore a navy dress with silver mules and silver jewellery.

I wore this with a (fake) fur coat

It went down very well!

BestIsWest · 11/12/2017 21:15

Mine is a curry with my team - sole woman among 12 men. I’m a bit at a loss - will probably go with smart jeans and a tasteful Christmas jumper.

Auntieobem · 11/12/2017 21:17

Ours was an 80's night - I wore a shell suit- with my old converse. Fab night!

Dailystuck71 · 11/12/2017 21:46

Sequin skirt and cashmere jumper. Black opaques and ankle boots.

MissBeehiving · 11/12/2017 22:02

This jumpsuit, which was fab.
