According to dh, my style is 6th form drama teacher. What’s yours?

So I do have a penchant for some ‘ethnic’ style jewellery and a billowy frock. And a bit of beading/embroidery/sequins/faux fur. I think I pull it off but no matter what I wear this is what I look like. You could put me in a trouser suit and I’d still look like a art/drama teacher. What’s that all about? What’s your inescapable style?

I thought I'd make a bit of an effort with some make up today. 3 yo DD asked "what's that all round your eyes?". She didn't look happy when she said it so I guess my look is "scares small children"!

Ginorwine I used to wear a lot of tea dresses, until I got all fat. Now I'm a root of stripes and corduroy :) Also I have rosy cheeks, am often wearing an apron, and frequently produce soup and scones from my kitchen. I think it's more that

Planning a return to the tea dresses by summer, since I've been pedalling off the extra stones in the gym (while listening to Woman's Hour podcasts )

A riot, not a root!!!!

I just asked my OH what he would describe my style as. He looked nervous and then carefully said 'librarian with a country twist, except when you go to work then you just look like a sensible sahm.' Then he scarpered to the shed....

Snuggly when I wear red lipstick, babies and toddlers burst into tears

Lulu your style sounds fab

Doas Ooh thanks! Most days I am a bit of a slop - house, walk to nursery, afternoon walk, shopping in village, so just slop. I do try if I am going somewhere.

I asked DH yesterday, his response was 'brave'

At the moment, I’m definitely rocking the pregnant farmer look. My uniform seems to be dungarees over jumpers, moon boots and puffy coat.

After dc arrives (next week) I’ll be super stylish in giant black harem pants and anything I can bf in on top! Possibly still in dungarees too. So, not much change!

I look like an old child
5 foot 2 in skinnies or vintage
Slim / slight aged in 50 s with bun .
Abs fascinated by wizard or West Bank chic

• not a clue what it transalates to in every day clothes ? ! Wd love to see some outfits !

Doas - sounds great !

My uncle once described my look as "ironing basket with a head". He nailed it.

I just asked DP and he said 'Rebel Bohemian'.

I'll take that.

Infant school teacher - I live in White Stuff / Seasalt dresses or skirts and scarves and boots!

How do I classify constant harem pants and trainers? Or wearing maternity clothes when not pregnant?

One thing is for sure- it’s probably not any kind of chic.

At work I've been told I look like an English teacher. I'm guessing the scarves, jewellery and slightly quirky take on professional attire is what does it as since it was pointed out I have started noticing a trend.

Out of work it's a mix of activewear/leggings and hoddies or maxi skirts&tunics/dresses with leggings.

I don't really like wearing trousers that much and live in leggings as much as possible.

Oh it was describing style as in a label.
Umm... 'activewear meets feminine meets overgrown emo/grunge kid'.

Dh says that I dress like Kate Middleton, fitted knee length tea dresses. My best friend says elegant. Dm told dd that I dress like her dm, so my grandmother, she has a point, I do wear pearl sets and am always co-ordinated with matching handbag, coat and shoes.

I do love the 1940's look!
