It is @Sooverthemill! I love it

Sooverthemill · 04/11/2019 09:12

Today's outfit in my continuing search for what goes with boyfriend jeans in the winter. The last 2 winters we have had the heating on 24/7 because of very sick DD having cancer/chemo and it was flipping hot in jeans and t shirt but this winter we hopefully won't need to!

Tbh I google Jennifer Anniston (don't judge) and came up with this version
Jeans: hush boyfriend old
Shirt: Zara linen old
Jumper: sea salt cotton cable old
Shoes: Hobbs old
(Kitten in final photo, DDs)

Doing this everyday is really helping me work out how to wear all the stuff I have. I'm so grateful when anyone comments and I really like seeing what everyone else wears! It's jolly good, keep it going!
Ps we are all feeling better except for DD who is rubbish and I'm wondering about GP visit...

You look lovely @Sooverthemill. Jennifer Anniston has great style so no judgement here.

@Ellapaella yes except for the leather dresses! Though even she looks great in them. I think she has casual style nailed.

MonkeyGoneToHeaven · 04/11/2019 12:31

I would love to join in! You all look fab. Here’s my outfit today:

New Look skirt and sweater
Russell and Bromley boots of dreams
Mulberry Lily
Silver hoops

Hope the Stylebook photo works.

I've succumbed today and ordered the MV leggings (and also a big old jumper dress from Mango)...excited for them to come!

twosoups1972 · 04/11/2019 12:58

You look great @Sooverthemill I am trying to 'shop my wardrobe' too rather than buy more similar clothes. My wardrobe is full but I'm not very good at putting outfits together!

happytobemrsg · 04/11/2019 13:15

Love your outfit Monkey! Fabulous skirt.

happytobemrsg · 04/11/2019 13:15

Wearing very boring clothes today but I love these earrings

Back at work today in a navy jumpsuit (Boden - autumn 2018, bought in the sale) and navy trainers (Jigsaw, 2018). I would post a picture, but the only full-length mirror is in the toilets.

Sooverthemill · 04/11/2019 13:49

@MonkeyGoneToHeavengreat outfit, love the boots.
@historysockme too! Found the 15% discount code. I've never bought anything from MV before ( except via eBay) so I'm hoping they are good. I saw Beth Goodrham's video on leather leggings and I've been thinking about them too much. I need more hobbies!

MonkeyGoneToHeaven · 04/11/2019 14:02

Thank you happytobemrsg and sooverthemill the skirt is a summer one which I am trying to make a bit more autumnal. I have been trying to use what I already have clothes-wise in new ways rather than buy new, unless they're investment buys like boots or a coat. Reading the thread it looks as if a few of us are trying to do the same, so it's great to have inspiration from here.

happytobemrsg · 04/11/2019 14:27

Do you have a discount code for MV @Sooverthemill??

Sooverthemill · 04/11/2019 15:46

@happytobemrsg STUDIO15 found on MN today!

littlepooch · 04/11/2019 16:02

Hello all

MV have got some gorgeous bits in, I'm sorely tempted if there is a discount code but I've just bought an advent calendar so promised myself no more spending for a bit.

Today I'm in a bronze zara silky dress/smock top type thing, navy tights and my trusty Stan smiths. Mint velvet earrings. Looks nicer than it sounds! I think....

I plan my outfits the night before as getting 3 kids out of the house by 7.45 means mornings are mayhem and it's the only way I will actually look put together! I was worried I might be cold but actually it was fine.

I saw there had been some chat over the sequin jumpsuit - I have been dreaming of a sequin jumpsuit all weekend. But nowhere to wear it to - not sure it would work on the school/nursery run haha

KiteflyingKat · 04/11/2019 17:51

Well I fell off the bandwagon Sunday - felt ill, DH was out and I was alone with DD who was being a monkey so I ended up in shabby clothes. I’m allowed occasional bad days!

KiteflyingKat · 04/11/2019 17:56

Work today -
Dress - Baukjen
Shoe-boots - M&S

"Chilling" at home right now, going out later to an event - lashing rain outside, urgh.

  • Icelandic handknitted jumper dress - sleeveless - black with a blue patterned yoke
  • black longsleeved "basic" top underneath
  • big blue woven wool wrap over the top
  • M&S thermal velour-lined tights
  • small but sparkly earrings
  • sheepskin slippers - black ankle boots later for going out.

Oh help - what am I going to wear when the weather gets really cold ???

Softpebbles · 04/11/2019 19:06

Similar to monkey!
Top is thin polo neck and wore with black boots!

OublietteBravo · 04/11/2019 19:57

I’m very tempted by the MV leggings. I wonder if I want regular or short (I’m 164 cm).

OublietteBravo · 04/11/2019 19:59

@KiteflyingKat - I really like your dress. You look great in it.
