Looking forward to seeing all the lovely outfits we can make by shopping our wardrobes. I’m day one of my no spend & pretty pleased with myself šŸ˜‚

@Dazedandconfused28 loving your outfit šŸ‘Œ

Ellapaella · 08/01/2020 13:39

@Hoolajerry those boots are gorgeous. I love my DM's but find them a bit heavy, if I wear them all day I actually find my legs hurt a bit the next day!

Hello all. Hope it’s ok to join in. I’ve had a big wardrobe sort out —to distract me from shopping— and have plenty of clothes I’m not wearing.. this is me today.

Welcome @bikinibottommuffintop - love your outfit. Where are the boots and coat from?
Today I'm wearing Hush Charlie Jumper, coated jeans and Mint velvet boots.

@Ellapaella boots are Clark’s via the charity shop (furry lined and gortex they’re toasty) and coat is Next.

@ememem84 I had lots of compliments on yesterday’s outfit too! Love it!

Love your boots @Ellapaella

Welcome @bikinibottommuffintop, great outfit.

Hush & MV delivery today. I love the silver high tops a la Ella. They are SO far out of my comfort zone so I think I need to wear them in the next few days to break the seal. Also really like the jumpsuit. Gorgeous colour (petrol blue) & really comfy. A cream cropped jacket also arrived from MV which is really lovely & well made, just having trouble seeing what I can wear it with

@happy were the high tops in the sale? They look so lovely. And how nice to have compliments!

happytobemrsg · 08/01/2020 18:53

Unfortunately not @Sooverthemill, I paid Ā£55 😩 but from a cost per wear perspective, I think it’s ok

If you love them as much as I do you'll be wearing them everyday happy

Softpebbles · 08/01/2020 20:27

re the high tops.
Must not buy new things.

OublietteBravo · 08/01/2020 20:43

I agree @Softpebbles - I’m trying very hard not to buy these high tops. So far I’m managing to resist...

I really hope so Ella! Do you wear them tight or quite loose at the ankle?

Had a driving lesson today so wore my beloved navy Adidas Gazelles , jeans from V by Very and a rainbow long sleeve top from next. Nice and comfy.

happytobemrsg · 08/01/2020 20:45

Wow that’s a good deal @OublietteBravo

Sooverthemill · 08/01/2020 21:07

I've never worn High tops so am not tempted, not one bit!

happytobemrsg · 08/01/2020 21:14

They are my first Sooverthemill. Going to wear them to work on Friday (dress down) 😬

OP posts:
OublietteBravo · 08/01/2020 21:17

I’ve never worn them either @Sooverthemill - but I’m tempted to try a pair as @Ellapaella always looks so fabulous in hers, and I reckon they’d be very comfortable (always an important footwear consideration). But they are not on my permitted spend list - so I will continue to resist.

Ladybundle love that COS dress, good length. I had a look around the sale but struggled to find a dress that wasn't above my knees.

KiteflyingKat · 08/01/2020 21:35

I absolutely love high tops - currently have three pairs - white, silver and a sparkly pinkish colour Grin

The white ones are so old and worn out but I love them.

My silver high tops are Diesel (via TKMaxx)
Worn here with Topshop jeans and Hush cardigan (via charity shop). The cardigan is quite twee but I think the high tops stop the outfit looking too frumpy

TK Maxx is a great place to buy high tops

See now I want some high tops. Those MV ones are awesome!

I had a look at the hush ones. Gorgeous.

Still resisting for now. If I can make it to February no clothes spend.

NotPennysBoat · 08/01/2020 21:42

I'm now also covetting some silver high tops... are they only for the long of leg? Would they make my 5'3" look even dumpier?

Ellapaella · 08/01/2020 21:51

Happy I do mine up tight at the ankle and tuck the laces in.
I have literally worn the Hush ones everyday since I got them before Christmas, so comfy.

Ellapaella · 08/01/2020 21:52

@NotPennysBoat I am 5'7 but don't have long legs - I have a long torso and quite short legs in comparison, I think they are quite flattering on me.

KiteflyingKat · 08/01/2020 21:53

TK Maxx have white & silver Converse high tops @ £29.99
