What are you wearing today? Countdown to Christmas

[Ellapaella]

Hello all

Hi Everyone
I hope it's ok if I join in. I love seeing what everyone is wearing!
I was out for the day in Edinburgh with the family for food and cinema.
I was wearing this warehouse dress with a long sleeve black top underneath, black tights, black platform DM boots, leather jacket and large leopard print scarf.

I would love to join this please! I've put on a bit of weight and lost my confidence but I'm determined to still make an effort while I'm trying to get back to my target weight.

Today I wore a black cashmere jumper from Uniqlo, hush black and grey leopard leggings, chunky ribbed black socks from m&s and studded ankle boots from Cara.

I really want some nice hairbands to funk my hair up when I don't have time to properly style it but worried they make me look like a child!

I'm really tempted by the Mint velvet leggings - I've been wanting a pair of leather leggings for a while but they all bag on my legs because unlike the rest of me they are actually very slim!

Hoping I can hop on too! I'm about to start back at work after maternity leave (although in a totally different job) and need to wear something other than pjs

I have to admit to being that mum, who matches with her kids and yesterday managed to rope DP into joining in

So many new people! Welcome!

@LaCerbiatta it’s from Mint Velvet but last year - it’s very cosy & the only piece of cashmere I own ❤️

I love your comfy clothes Racheyg I’ll google them now...

Lovely dress SymbollocksInteractionism

@littlepooch I have lots of headbands & love them! Most of mine are from Oliver Bonas. I’m trying to upload a photo but apparently I’ve already posted too many photos 🤷‍♀️

☺️smy I love your dress and how you e styled it.

Today I feel very haircut 100 ( if anyone is old enough to remember them!)
Jumper: &otherstories via charity eBay last year
Jeans: jigsaw Hampton boyfriend ( old)
Trainers: stan Smith
Socks: Calvin Klein liners
Underneath ancient boden baseball top with bleach marks!
Should I tuck in or not?

Loving all the new people with new outfits!

Can I join? I love clothes and seem to buy a lot but I’m not brilliant at putting stuff together. Trying to ‘shop from my wardrobe’ rather than buy more.

Yesterday I wore a burgundy boucle mini skirt from Hush with a turquoise jumper from Boden. Didn’t feel ‘right’ together for some reason.

Hello @twosoups.

to @soover

soovwr tuck the jumper in a bit I would.

Excuse the messy bedroom!
I'm like most here, stuck in a rut. My life revolves around work, kids and dogs. My work wear needs to be understated and Conservative smart casual. At home I end up so grubby from kids and house etc that I've stopped making any effort.
I'm lucky that we have a charity shop called Newlife near us and I get 95% of my clothes from there. They are generally brand new end of line or slight seconds but they take the labels off although you can figure it out most of the time. My outfit today is from there:

Black skinny jeans - Whistles
Marroon wooly jumper - unknown
Long sleeve black scoop neck t-shirt - M&S
Black Hudson boots.

I struggle to accessorise and also with what shoes to wear as I have short, chunky legs.

@Atalune I have! But that's what makes me feel very 80s and not in a good way!

@Hoolajerry you look great! I think we are our own worst critics.

Casual day at work today

Dress - never fully dressed
Jeans - H&M
Black T-shirt - H&M
Trainers - Alexander McQueen

Green woolly jumper - menswear m&s
Cord purple skirt
Darker purple tights

I'm off to a yoga class so wearing:

Sweaty Betty reversible leggings
North Face vest top
Patagonia sports bra

My hand is not as enormous as it looks in the picture!

I love those M&S leggings @Softpebbles!

Currently 26 weeks pregnant but very tempted to order some for post baby lounging! How did you find the sizing on them? M&S are usually quite liberal/forgiving...

Hi Macbook. To be honest I would not say they are that forgiving. I’m a 10 and the 10 fitted. An 8 would have really been too tight. Some of the reviews say this too.

Work day today, black Levi’s, boots and a top from top shop. Black quilted North face.

May have ordered some patent doc Chelsea boots 😬

Today - boring!

I am sending the satin midi skirt back that I ordered as I just wouldn’t wear it. I’d like to think I would but know I’d be to scared 🤦‍♀️

Topshop Baxter jeans in a dark indigo wash with a raw edge. A dark grey drapey cardigan from All Saints layered over a black/white Breton from French Connection. Low heeled black suede ankle boots + claret coloured leather cross body bag.

Day in the office today.

Navy wool trench coat - Jaeger (but via TK Maxx for £100)

Handbag - Coach

Black flat ankle boots - New Look. Only £20 but surprisingly comfy to wear for the commute, if I have long walks between meeting etc.

@Softpebbles thanks for insight! Have popped a cheeky order in. I've gone for pre pregnancy size which is probably a little optimistic but if nothing else it'll be motivation and/or basically a girdle!

Great boots! I ordered a pair of the 1460s and the Jadons yesterday to try. Although a little worried that the Jadons might look completely ridiculous on my 31 year old self... hello hormones!

I hope you tucked @Sooverthemill, it looked brilliant.

You’re so lucky to have a shop like that near you @Hoolajerry

Is that one of their wrap dresses @Racheyg? I saw a lovely black/leopard print one on their website which looked interesting

Very cool boots @Softpebbles. My bbf received some shiny ankle boots from All Saints & while my first reaction was to say matt would be better, they totally grew on me!

Spent the day at my parents’ house with my 2 sisters & their children. Lots of compliments on my outfit from my very stylish niece & my sister has ordered the same coat for herself!
