The mornings are definitely getting darker!

Not easy to see the colour but today I am wearing navy wool culottes from John Lewis and a navy and white striped T-shirt from Jaeger.

Both are made from really good quality fabrics and both were absolute steals from the sale and from TK Maxx!

Hospital appointment this morning then looking after 3yr old DS at home so comfort won again (I’m 36w pregnant today so I think comfort should always win right now 😂)

Today I’m wearing:

Grey marl long sleeve jumpsuit (Dorothy Perkins maternity - new)
White trainers (Adidas Sleeks - new)
Jewellery: gold shooting star earrings (Missoma - new), mini gold watch (Casio - new)

DH said the jumpsuit/white trainers combo made me look very Essex-y today (we live in Essex so not sure if if was a compliment or not 🤔)

IhaveALooBrush · 05/08/2019 14:53

Big flowery flared trousers, a scoop neck t shirt and an oversized ancient cardigan covered in bobbles.

SteelRiver · 05/08/2019 16:38

Today I'm wearing a pair of relaxed fit, ankle grazer jeans (can't remember where I got them) and a linen mix, round neck, coral & white striped top that I got just recently in the John Lewis sale. First time I've worn it and I love it!

Does anyone use a closet app for their outfits?

NoTheresa · 05/08/2019 19:37

Cool decor.

happytobemrsg · 05/08/2019 19:43

@kiki22 once I’m back into shape after DS2 arrives I’m sorting out my Autumn wardrobe so will upload very Thing to the Stylebook app

Lumene · 05/08/2019 19:52

kiki I have recently started using Stylebook which is good.

Ellapaella · 05/08/2019 21:41

Light grey isn’t a good colour for me (pastels in general drain me) so I do my best to use the correct colours in my accessories near my face - mustard & gold are great for an Autumn like me

Paradyning · 06/08/2019 06:59

Which protected species coat did you get happy?
Love you hair/hairband look. I'd never pull that off.

Lobsterquadrille2 · 06/08/2019 07:20

@happytobemrsg I love the headband too - casual and stylish.

I'm off to work and boring as befits an office ..... dress M&S (very old!) and shoes M&S too; jacket Hobbs but I'm not wearing it until I leave.

Lobsterquadrille2 · 06/08/2019 07:23

This.

Summersummershine · 06/08/2019 08:31

@LemonAddict that dress looks lovely on you Smile I've just ordered it - I wasn't sure it was the right one on the website as it looks so much nicer on you than in their photos.

I was also inspired by all your pretty jewellery @happytobemrsg and ordered a gold star necklace which was also in the sale.

I'm really enjoying all the photos, so many lovely outfits. I'm not dressed yet as not at work today, but will try to post later.

Summersummershine · 06/08/2019 08:49

Argh I'm so sorry! I have no idea why that's posted so many times Blush

happytobemrsg · 06/08/2019 09:27

I bought the Commuter @Paradyning. It’s very roomy but I think that’s good - means I can layer up in Autumn & it still fit ok. It’s a gorgeous colour. Can’t take a selfie as is hospital waiting room but attached a pic of it on my lap! You could definitely pull off the headband look if you wanted to. It’s such an easy way to make a look more interesting with literally no effort. I chucked it on this morning because I haven’t washed my hair since last Wednesday 😳 Just pick colours which suit your colouring & wear it with plain clothes (until your brave enough to print clash - I’m slowly getting there!).

Thank you @Lobsterquadrille2! I have built quite a collection now. Would highly recommend those from Oliver Bonas.

Oh how lovely @Summersummershine! I don’t think I’ve inspired anyone to do anything before 😊 do you have a photo of your new necklace??

I’ve been working on my Autumn capsule wardrobe & it’s really coming along. Final deliveries coming today.

Ooo lovely coat. That's the combo I was looking at but he are out of stock in my fat size

MinesaPinot · 06/08/2019 09:48

The Zara Dress, flat black/silver gladiator style sandals, and silver jewellery with a black Marc Jacobs bag. I know it's not universally liked, to say the least, but DH said it looked lovely, and I have had several compliments, especially from our Young Stylish Things in work, so feel very chuffed.

Zenithbear · 06/08/2019 09:52

Denim pinafore with light grey t-shirt underneath plus flip flops.
Day off meeting friend for lunch then out later with dp and his parents.

Summersummershine · 06/08/2019 09:55

It's this one @happytobemrsg I don't usually wear gold but I've had colour analysis done and I'm an autumn so I thought I'd try it out. And I love stars Smile

I'm wearing skirt from Boden, T-shirt from H&M, necklace from Boden and belt from M&S. As well as my colour analysis I had shape analysis and I'm an hour glass so apparently belts are my friend! Another thing I don't usually wear and I'm not sure...it does make my waist look smaller though (doesn't really show on the photo)

Summersummershine · 06/08/2019 09:56

Trying again with the photos...I'm having a shocker today Confused

Summersummershine · 06/08/2019 10:12

Right, last try for photos and then I'll give up before I fill the thread with my blank posts! 🤞🏻

happytobemrsg · 06/08/2019 10:22

You’re not a fat size @Paradyning!! Mums still had their 40% code last week so that might be why a few sizes are out of stock.

I have that dress too @MinesaPinot! Well, I actually have 3 as I dyed the other two!! It’s so comfy isn’t it?! I also got lots of compliments when I wore it to work last week
