@NancyEspana aww thank you! I'm very shy about posting on here. Someone suggested watching Trinny on YouTube and over the weekend I went down the rabbit hole that is youtube fashion videos ( ive never seen any before, didn't even know such a thing existed!) but as DH was on the March and DD sleeping I ended up watching and it just made me look back at what I had!

Gilbert82 · 21/10/2019 13:26

You all look fab!
I’d love to try some mom jeans but I’m not sure I could pull them off

happytobemrsg · 21/10/2019 15:19

Life’s too short Gilbert82 - just go for it! I think the key to making it work is a tighter top, probably tucked in, to balance out the baggier jeans

happytobemrsg · 21/10/2019 15:45

I just watched the video @Sooverthemill! Thank you & now like Gilbert I’m lusting after some mom jeans...

Very dull work outfit today:
black pencil skirt - M&S
grey jacket - Primark, via the charity shop, but it has Vivienne Westwood vibes and I really like it
black t-shirt - can't remember / maybe Benetton
black tights
grey brogues

Gilbert82 · 21/10/2019 20:06

Very true life is too short! Maybe after payday I’ll have to take a trip to the shops and try some on!

Sooverthemill · 22/10/2019 08:26

A day of boring stuff today, cleaning and so on
T shirt Rae by FWP
Jeans Jigsaw Hampton ( old and comfy)

@Sooverthemill you’re another one like Ella who can really wear jeans. I think there must be a jeans gene and I just don’t possess it.

Back to work today, yay. Not.

Silvie dress (Hush)
Velvet blazer (Next)
Skinny star scarf (Hush)
Lucky Charm boots (Office)
Victoria coat (Hobbs)

@Talisin if I couldn't wear jeans I'd be pretty much naked in the winter! But that's very kind. I do own too many pairs of jeans. Your outfit looks great, I do miss wearing proper work clothes . Love that jacket and the coat!

slavetothemoney · 22/10/2019 09:01

😍 the blazer & coat, @Talisin!!

I have an appointment this morning then meeting my sis for a coffee later.
It's bloomin cold today!

Wearing;
Fat Fat dress (current)
Black opaques
Blowfish ankle boots
Izabel denim jacket

I will be adding a scarf of some description when it comes to leaving the house! 🥶

Lovely outfits!
Today floral tea dress - oasis, old
Tights black Clark’s boots! Love a pair of Clark’s boots 🙈

My new look dress arrived. When it gets colder would it go with tights and black boots?! Fitted nicely but like @Ellapaella I may add a thin black belt.

First time I’ve worn jeans since having DS2. Thank God for a high stretch content Grin. Running errands this morning then going to for a swim.

DH just said to me - “you do know your jumper is still a bit tucked into your jeans right?!”. Yes dear. Also wearing my Burberry scarf today.

I also wear a belt with mine Soft. That dress is definitely the Mumsnet dress of the season 😂

Softpebbles · 22/10/2019 11:07

Would you wear with tights and boots too?

Looking great BTW 😊

Gilbert82 · 22/10/2019 11:09

@happytobemrsg I can’t believe you are only weeks postpartum you look fabulous!

NancyEspana · 22/10/2019 11:40

Fab outfits today!

mrsg, I get similar comments from my DH! I love a partial tuck. You look great.

Here I am today in Juna Rose top, DP skirt, snag tights and Clark's Mary Janes. Skirt is on the shorter side than I'd normally wear, but I'm determined to show off my shiny new tights Grin.

I'm not going anywhere much today though, so I'm embracing the mini skirt.

@NancyEspana snag tights? Love them.
@happytobemrsg love the jumper and jeans - you are very pretty.
@slavetothemoney lovely outfit.

@happy I'm just pleased when I manage to go out without my skirt tucked into my knickers which is why I'm a jeans girl)

Talisin · 22/10/2019 13:30

@Softpebbles I don’t think I’ve worn mine without tights and black boots actually...

Ellapaella · 22/10/2019 14:07

softpebbles lovely dress

I love a partial tuck on other people, doesn't quite work out for me I though as I tend to look like i've rushed getting dressed!

Work today so fairly boring, need to master the art of doing a selfie in the mirror!

happytobemrsg · 22/10/2019 22:06

Thanks so much everyone!! I felt quite good today & found the jeans pretty comfortable thank God. I think I prefer a partial tuck, I feel less exposed but also quite cool in a nonchalant, I’m too cool to care, kind of way 😎

Managed an extra length in the pool compared to last time - baby steps Grin

Soft IMO the dress looks better with bare legs & ankle boots. BUT on the only day I’ve worn the dress it was freezing so I wore it with Uniqlo heatech leggings & OTK boots & still felt fabulous so long boots are definitely ok (I’ve attached a photo).

Sooverthemill so funny! I used to live in jeans, but my scar is still tingly & can be a bit sore so I’ve been avoiding them.

Champagne I’m sure that’s exactly how my DH would have described my look this morning!

I’ll be doing another partial tuck tomorrow so will get there eye roll ready for DH’s comments.

I attempted a partial tuck this morning, inspired by the fabulous mrsg, but no cigar. I am weirdly long in the body and a bit chubby, so it only works on me with skirts.

Anyway, here I am in Gap girlfriend jeans, turned up, (I am a total OP wannabe Wink), DM boots, M&S sleeveless top and a v neck jumper from Very. Charity shop necklace as per...
