Nice jumper @Sooverthemill & @OublietteBravo looking snug but stylish

KiteflyingKat · 04/12/2019 12:23

Perhaps we could have “What are you wearing today - shop your wardrobe” as the next thread?

Joining this thread has made me realise I definitely have enough clothes so I want to focus on no spend and shopping my wardrobe.

KiteflyingKat · 04/12/2019 12:26

Today:

Jacket - Jigsaw via charity shop
Jeans- Topshop
Top -Phase Eight
Black riding boots - Valverde Botas

Looking very stylish as usual Kat, I love your boots.

Warmth and comfort are the name of the game for me today. I've walked to dog and this afternoon I'm wrapping christmas and birthday presents ready to send to my family down south.
Oliver Bonas cardigan, Hush harems, Joules stripey breton and the most warm and cosy slipper socks from Morrison's.

Shop your wardrobe is a brilliant idea for next thread's theme

My no clothes shopping starts now. I need to spend my money on Christmas pressies this month then I need to save save save as our house needs a huge amount of work doing over the next few years.

I’ve been to TK Maxx and bought some clothes for DH. He’s not bothered about fashion, just a jeans/T-shirt/ jumper guy, fair enough but some of his clothes have holes in Grin

Definitely shop your wardrobe for the next thread!

@Ellapaella both the Joanie dress & OB cardigan arrived today & unfortunately I love them both Grin I've never had a wrap dress before but it’s a revelation- I loved the shape on me!

Christmas tree went up today & our new fireplace is lovely so I’m feeling very Christmassy.

@mrsG nice fireplace! We need pictures of the wrap dress / cardigan combo.

KiteflyingKat · 04/12/2019 21:07

@Ellapaella that cardi looks great on you. It’s definitely not my colour though - never had my colours done but pretty sure I’m not suited to autumn colours

Ellapaella · 04/12/2019 21:26

@happytobemrsg yes the dress is perfect for the hourglass shape. I'm glad you like them both.

I don’t know how I missed them @KiteflyingKat but I love your boots.

If everyone is well enough I’ll be rocking my new dress & cardigan at my nieces birthday party at the weekend. I love how the cardigan stops it from being too over dressed (I always feel much more dressed up in dresses for some reason).

Outfit #3 (dinner).
Top: Phase Eight
Culottes: Phase Eight
Boots: Dune

Yesterday's outfit - dress from joules, can't remember where the tights are from and Sainsbury's boots. I'm definitely up for a no-spend shop your wardrobe thread. The combination of this thread and style book has made me see how I could wear what I've already got differently and I've been trying to only buy specific items I don't already have (likes my midi skirt) - but no spend would be even better.

Love the look of the snow in Iceland, I'm jealous! (But I only like snow for 1-2 days, and only if I don't have to go anywhere 😂)

@OublietteBravo I tried some Cos culottes like that on in charity shop yesterday & didn’t buy them (was not sure I would wear them). Now I’m wishing I got them!
But I’ve started my no spend now so I’m not allowed to go back and see if they are still there Grin

Ellapaella · 05/12/2019 08:18

You wear those culottes so well @OublietteBravo

@PalacePaper lovely dress!

Sooverthemill · 05/12/2019 08:51

Love the culottes! Fab.

Today I'm in old things but cosy
Jumper: sea salt ( 2017)
Shirt: autograph (2014)
Jeans: hush can't remember probably 2017
Trainers: jigsaw 2018

happytobemrsg · 05/12/2019 10:29

Yes! Those culottes look amazing @OublietteBravo! Another thing I’ve yet to brave. They always look amazing on HRH Kate too I think it’s about balancing the silhouette- so something right on top 🤔

Busy day today. Lots of errands, getting lash extensions done & hoping to get some work done too. Wearing my lovely new cardigan

Love the socks & boots @KiteflyingKat

KiteflyingKat · 05/12/2019 12:11

This top makes me realise I need to stop buying 3/4 length sleeves . I’m generally either warm and need a t-shirt or cold and need full length sleeves. 3/4 length just annoy me.

I also need to stop buying dark blue jeans as I prefer either black or lighter blue.

PinkDaydreams · 05/12/2019 12:19

@KiteflyingKat those boots are gorgeous! I was in Sainsbury’s yesterday but didn’t see anything like those, are they this years (hope you don’t mind me asking)

Talisin · 05/12/2019 14:35

@happytobemrsg love the look of the fire - I could have done with that yesterday!

@OublietteBravo the culottes look great with the long boots, definitely going to steal that look. Also jealous of the snow, living inLondon we rarely get much and I love it.

Was going to have a pyjama day today but had the chance for a last minute ticket to see White Christmas at the Dominion tonight so have put on an appropriately snowy/Christmas themed jumper.

Sequin snowflake jumper (Wallis)
Jeans (Lidl)
Boots (Fly London)
Velvet puffer coat (Next)

@Ellapaella thank you for the link! Gutted I didn’t see them when there was 25% off Tu. @KiteflyingKat I see you’ve got yours turned up, do they stay up or have you found they fall down?
