Does it always have to be jeans?

[Cobblersandhogwash]

I work from home. Four dcs. Four dogs. So I wear jeans a lot.

I'd like a change though without looking too dressed up for school rum etc.

Any ideas?

Thick knitted tights and corduroy skirt with ankle boots? Day dresses and the same ?

Yeh knitted tights, casual dress and chunky knits is the way to go.
