Hi everyone
Haven’t posted for a while, there’s been a few things going on in work and at home and I’ve been lying low.

@bridgetreilly I love that pinafore and the whole outfit in general.

Thanks everyone who has been posting and adding photos. I need to haul myself up again and make a bit of an effort.

I am on the Facebook group but the only difference really is that we can see our real names and more people post pics with their faces in. Some people have posted their mumsnet names and some haven’t. There’s room for both places, I think!

Morning all.
Ancient Uttam Boutique jersey wrap dress today (size 16). Mainly to justify buying one of the dresses I've got my eye on!
Navy top underneath.
WS tights (M).
DS proof necklace, I hope.
Indoor glasses today.

I will also be wearing an apron later. I am a messy cook.

Nice outfit summoning! You've earned a new dress Halloween Grin.

Here I am in Sainsbury's black pinafore, 18, DP tshirt, 14, snag tights, E and black socks.

I am just at home now, doing a clear out, (allegedly, while actually mumsnetting Halloween Blush).

Need to put.down.the.smartphone.

Nice dress summoning and rocking the pinafore Nancy as ever.

This afternoon I am trying to keep warm and psych myself up to do the ironing and make tea. I can’t be bothered to go upstairs to a mirror. Snag navy tights size F, Sainsburys soft comfy (embarrassing red skirt size 20), ancient jumper from I can’t remember where and Whitestuff skirt from last year or the year before.

I really like your skirt longlegs! It goes beautifully with the navy tights.

I did a big clear out in my bedroom. Holy mother of God, the rubbish we have up there! I've filled several huge bin bags. It never ends in our house. I seem to be forever clearing out rooms and wardrobes etc.

Not going to lie, kinda loved my outfit for cinema outing to see Frozen 2 today. I recently invested heavily in estee lauder make up and i felt so much more polished than normal. I attribute this mostly to the attitude to this group, we rock!
Anyway, tesco knitted jumper 22 current season, old faithful black thermal leggings and new tesco boots

Glad to see your DD hasn't put you off your 'embarrassing' red skirt Daddylonglegs. It's a beautiful colour. Can I just ask what shoes/boots you wear with those navy tights? I'm never sure what to do with navy.

NancyEspana · 24/11/2019 19:19

Make up can make such a difference can't it diesel. Hope the film was good! I want to take dd next weekend. We haven't had time this weekend.

I have a pair of grey, suede boots from London Fly which I really like with navy tights summoning. But since they have a bit of height I don't wear them much. With the added height, I am a bit too tall to push ds's pushchair comfortably Hmm. So, I quite often go with brown.

Daddylonglegs1965 · 24/11/2019 19:29

Loving your jumper diesel.
😂 TheSummoningDark it makes we want to dress even more colourfully. I just wear a pair of ankle boots with...everything. These are my new favourite ones from Josef Siebel.

Does anyone else find formal wear hard?

Currently wearing: leggings, t-shirt, sports bra, running socks, sweatshirt, trainers. Because plus size women can be fit and healthy too!

After I have been to the gym, I shall put on proper clothes and try to remember to take a photo!

NancyEspana · 25/11/2019 10:13

Amen @bridgetreilly!

I am off to a fairly challenging yoga class this evening and I manage to keep up with most of it!

NancyEspana · 25/11/2019 10:14

@Stoptheworldandmelt

You look great in that mens shirt! I have never thought to do that. Looks really cool and feminine.

@Stoptheworldandmelt I quite like the idea of making my own clothes. At least you get to wear unique pieces that fit you perfectly. I don't really do formal wear any more. On the rare occasion I need it, I'd rather buy a vintage style day dress and hope I look presentable, so I get to wear it afterwards.

While I'm impressed by all the exercise talk, I will be pleased if I just get through today without using sugar to keep me awake. Tried to go back to bed, but there's building work going on somewhere Angry.

Daddylonglegs1965 · 25/11/2019 11:34

Your dress looks nice summoning.

Sorry for derail. As you were....

NancyEspana · 26/11/2019 10:20

How is everyone doing? Summoning, hope you're ok and NOT in your box. Step well away from the box!

Just a play at home this morning with DS, as you can tell from the toy strewn floor. Wet toes as well due to miserable weather on school run.

I'm fine. The veg I prepped for dinner last night wasn't though. I fully embodied the spirit of my MN name and the peppers didn't deserve what happened.

At home, miserable day.
Next jogger jeans 16L
WS shirt, M&S t shirt both 16.
Skechers.
