@AndNoneForGretchenWieners and @AliasGrape

Oh my goodness I have dress envy!

cerys · 09/11/2019 17:08

@ringletsandtwiglets you don’t look a 24 from that angle either and you have really slim legs!

cerys · 09/11/2019 17:16

Being brave and posting a pic today.

Made an effort as I was meeting a very stylish slim friend. She always looks well groomed and amazing.

Top is Joe Browns at SimplyBe.
Skirt is Curvissa or Simplybe
Tights are Next.
Biker boots ASOS.

Sizes are 18 to 22Confused and size 6 feet. I’m 5’5” and a menopausal apple shape!

Right out of my comfort zone with all of it!

Grape that dress is stunning for you ladies with lovely legs! I have serious knee issues, so have to avoid those lovely hems even though I love them. And yes, they are genuinely serious knee issues! My knees have their very own spare tyres!

Lovely outift Cerys! Hope you had a good time!

FiveGoMadInDorset · 09/11/2019 17:27

I think I posted on the other thread and got distracted but I love this.

Today I have been working in a cold shed so have been sporting a jumper dress, long grey cardigan and leggings all from Tesco, and trainers from Solomon.

NancyEspana · 09/11/2019 17:36

I just bought two sequinned skirts (secondhand from eBay). Have I gone bonkers or will they look amazing at Christmas?

One is a mini stretchy one and the other is a flappier a line knee length. They are both black.

I will obvs try them on and post a pic when I get them!

Jumper dress from George Asda, and ankle boots! 😍

@cerys, you are very sweet! And you look absolutely gorgeous. I love that top and have serious biker boot envy. I reckon you could go even shorter with your skirt too.

ringletsandtwiglets · 09/11/2019 17:50

Yessssss Nancy, you will look amazing in sequinned skirts!!

picklemepopcorn · 09/11/2019 17:58

Is that you, @Phoebebuffay13 ? wow!

Phoebebuffay13 · 09/11/2019 18:16

@picklemepopcorn yes that's me this morning! Thank you 😊 x

picklemepopcorn · 09/11/2019 18:22

Woah! You make that dress look fabulous!

AliasGrape · 09/11/2019 18:39

Fabulous and gorgeous Phoebe!

Phoebebuffay13 · 09/11/2019 18:40

Thank you, there's nothing a bit of confidence, and some accessories can't fix! 😊

NancyEspana · 09/11/2019 18:47

You look beaut @Phoebebuffay13! Lovely, confident photo!

Thanks ringlets! I'm already planning what to wear them with, which is always a good sign.

Lightuptheroom · 09/11/2019 18:57

Pickle.. for knee issues I find 200 denier tights really help in black as they act as a support as well.

Moominfan · 09/11/2019 19:27

Ooh Phoebe you look great x

picklemepopcorn · 09/11/2019 19:33

Thanks for the tip, Light!

3dogs2cats · 09/11/2019 20:01

Pickleme.
I did have jeggings once but Dd behaved as if it was beyond the pale, don’t know why. I’m gonna get me some more.

ClientListQueen · 09/11/2019 20:24

No outfit shots today as had my shoot. Spent about 3hrs stood outside in 3c weather wearing not very much!

RiddleyW · 09/11/2019 20:47

Just wanted to say I’m lurking and thanks for posting! I’m not brave enough to participate but I’m getting some fantastic inspiration

cerys · 09/11/2019 22:32

I was imagining a meet up and most of us wearing pinafores and snag tights 🤣

picklemepopcorn · 10/11/2019 08:37

I'm at a remembrance parade today. I need to choose between my new red coat or a lovely black velvet cape coat.

Because of the walking, I'll have to wear boots or black Mary Jane hotter trainers.
My tights are mustard and purple, and my boots are burgundy, so I think I'll have to wear trousers!

Gosh that was complicated! and I haven't even worked out what's under the coat yet!

cerys · 10/11/2019 09:00

I’m going to watch my son play rugby so I’ll be dressed purely for warmth and keeping my feet dry!
