I tried but it just didn’t work. I look frumpy 😡

So going to brave it without.

I'm wearing the incredibly stylish outfit of pink Cardiff Blues rugby shirt, black yoga pants and gold trainers

KiteflyingKat · 21/11/2019 19:32

@Ellapaella I’m being very nosy, but how tall are you? I always think you look tall, but today’s photo you look petite Grin

Ellapaella · 21/11/2019 20:47

I'm 5'7

Definitely not petite!GrinI can see what you mean about the photo today. Maybe it's the angle which my mirror is positioned, it's tilted on a stand.

Thanks @Ellapaella! It was the first time I’ve worn a dress in ages. I think I’ll get out my OTK boots and get them cleaned up so I can start wearing dresses again now it’s so cold. I need to order some ultra thick tights too so I can wear my ankle boots

Ellapaella · 21/11/2019 22:29

Yep I definitely need some winter proof tights. If you find any good ones let me know.

I’m back in default navy again today.

Jumpsuit: Boden
Trainers: Jigsaw

Both bought in the sales - the entire outfit cost me less than £80.

Wearing actual clothes today. Had a shower and washed my hair as DH was home to supervise ( in case I fell) feel like a human again
The first is what I'm wearing
Jumper : new heavily discounted Baukjen
Trousers: baukjen clearance
Trainers: jigsaw

This has made me realise how useful slip on trainers are. Any suggestions for others? ( I don't like vans , they are too heavy for me)
The second photo shows how I've been slobbing around all week!

Everyone's pictures/outfits are great
@Ellapaella falke tights are amazing but pricey as are Wolford. I always used to get them in to max if I saw them

Sooverthemill · 22/11/2019 09:27

TK MAXX!

bettybea · 22/11/2019 09:53

Have dipped in and out of this thread for a while now so decided I should actually join in if that's ok!

Shirt- Primark
Jumper- New Look
Jeans- Tesco
Shoes- Converse (have been wearing constantly lately as the platform is insanely comfortable!)

Love those Chucks, @bettybea !

I live in Primark fleece lined tights when it gets cold. Boring but cheap, practically indestructible and vey warm.

Love yesterdays dress, @OublietteBravo really lovely colours.

In my default black again (surprise, surprise) with a bit of metallic sparkle.

Stella jumper (Hush)
Wide leg slouch trousers (Next)
Silver boots (Nine by Savannah Miller)
Star choker (Hush)

I have those boots talisin. Love them. They make me feel like David Bowie

KiteflyingKat · 22/11/2019 12:54

I have that handbag @Talisin. I decided to invest in one with a long cross body strap before I had my baby and it was such a good idea I now have it in 3 colours .....

KiteflyingKat · 22/11/2019 12:58

@Ellapaella we are the same height Grin

KiteflyingKat · 22/11/2019 13:06

Ok I’m in a slightly smarter outfit -

  • Navy wool coat - Jaeger via TK Maxx
  • Dark grey scarf - gift, from a craft fair
  • shirt - Cos via charity shop
  • jeans - Topshop
  • Boots - M&S

@Talisin I have that handbag too in tan. Got it half price in their sale. It's a great bag!

Veronicat · 22/11/2019 14:59

I've been lurking on these threads and I must say you have all inspired me to stop buying and shop my wardrobe instead.
Today I'm off work Ill and I'm wearing thermogen spotty leggings and a wonderfully soft grey hoodie. All from Next.

Sooverthemill · 22/11/2019 16:09

Welcome @bettybea and @Veronicat!

hammeringinmyhead · 22/11/2019 16:12

Today I'm wearing a blue top with herons on it from Brakeburn, black Topshop Jamie jeans, Burberry Daylesmoore coat in camel and these boots.

My DS is nearly 13 months and I'm definitely guilty of jeans-and-a-jumper or jeans-and-a-breton but they're normally nice ones at least.

Talisin · 22/11/2019 17:38

@bettybea ooh, boot twins. I didn’t think of the Bowie thing until the first time i wore them out and about three people referenced him. I don’t actually wear them all that often because I find the length really awkward and hard to style so mostly the lightning bolt gets covered up by trousers.

@KiteflyingKat @twosoups1972 I have it in oxblood as well as black - went back for it a year later as I’d got so much use out of the black one. We must have all colour variations between the three of us, surely!
