It's horrible here today - really rainy. I need to go out but am struggling to decide what to wear - it's too warm for jeans. I've currently got a jumpsuit on from Fatface, but it's going to look a bit daft with my pack-a-parka! Grin

Short shorts
White Air Force 1s
Big hoops

LaVieilleHarpie · 30/07/2019 15:13

Got changed. Now I'm wearing a black bodysuit with long sleeves, blue mom jeans, and black converse.

kiki22 · 30/07/2019 17:07

I've decided I need more jewelery you all seem to have accessorising down. I lost my jewelry box years ago in a move and haven't ever replaced much.

@kiki22 accessories are my favourite bit! You can easily change an outfit by switching up your accessories. For example I have a black & white midi dress. I can wear it on a summery day with white trainers, lots of layered necklaces & a leopard print belt or it can be autumn appropriate with black ankle boots, leather jacket, a mustard belt & gold hoops. If I’m having a bad hair day I chuck my hair up in a messy bun & add a headband.

happytobemrsg · 31/07/2019 08:05

Today I’m at work & feeling HUGE so comfort won again.

Light grey jumpsuit (Dorothy Perkins maternity- new)
Dark grey shawl (Louis Vuitton - new)
Chain mail sandals (M&S- old)

Jewellery: gold & malachite earrings (Missoma), gold choker (Missoma), gold initial “N” short necklace for my son (Maya Brenner - it’s the same one Meghan Markle has), gold & SS watch (Rolex), gold & green friendship bracelet (Monica Vinader)

happytobemrsg · 31/07/2019 08:07

Must say I am LOVING my gold & malachite earrings. They go so well with neutrals as well as other colours in my Autumn palette

Mrsg those are just stunning. Where are they from?

evilharpy · 31/07/2019 08:37

Ah wait sorry, I missed your previous post. They really are lovely.

I have a sort of floaty white shirt with tiny black dots (Next, not somewhere I normally shop but I liked this), black cigarette pants (H&M), black leather heels (not sure), brown leather bag (R&B) as I didn't have time to change it for a different one this morning. And gold drop earrings from TK Maxx (not sure of the actual brand) that go with everything and get lots of compliments - such a good buy for £20, they've more than earned their keep.

Chipsahoy · 31/07/2019 09:37

Another rainy day, hard to know what to wear when it's still so warm!
Top shop denim skirt with a boohoo stars and stripes print vest. Wearing blue crop top underneath it.

happytobemrsg · 31/07/2019 20:45

@kiki22 I was a bit in a rut too but making a bit more effort really makes me feel like “me” again & not just “mummy”!!

happytobemrsg · 31/07/2019 20:46

Thank you @evilharpy! They look so much better in person too. I’d definitely recommend Missoma- they have some really unique & fun jewellery

kiki22 · 31/07/2019 21:45

@happytobemrsg my oldest has been unwell today I was tempted to fall into bed and turn up to work tomorrow with a hoodie and a don't talk to me sign but I've sorted my outfit I think I will feel less zombie like if I look good.

happytobemrsg · 01/08/2019 08:08

Sorry your DC is unwell @kiki22 but I’m glad you feel a bit better in yourself. I’ve started following Styled by Susie (a stylist on Instagram who styles normal women from the high street) & I recently joined the accompanying Facebook group & I have never felt more confident in my self. I’ve not lost weight (I’m 8m pregnant so if anything I’m getting bigger & bigger) but I can honestly say I’ve never felt more confident. The Facebook group in particular is so positive & friendly (it’s a closed group). I’d recommend looking into it x

happytobemrsg · 01/08/2019 08:13
