Thoughts on these

@Softpebbles - they are available in size 10 or size 16:

Not sure why but I cant post pics?! Maybe because I'm on my phone?

Hello all. Some amazing outfits again, and nice to see some wintry pictures too!

Here's my last couple of days of work outfits - I appear to have had a green/black thing going on 😄

@shadesofwinter I particularly love your skirt outfit 👌

@Softpebbles hopefully you found them? There were loads in stock when I ordered them on Monday, £20 is a great price as the denim is fantastic. I'm allegedly an hourglass according to my style analysis but I don't suit most high rise jeans at all (with the exception of skinny where I can hide my waist with a jumper) - these are mid rise and are the most flattering fit for me.

Oh ffs I am going to try and post again, its failed twice now over the last couple of days. Bleh. Anyway it's an old shirt, jumper of my husbands that I shrank , trousers from warehouse, shoes from miista, however trousers and shoes were both second hand from depop. Bloomin love depop! Going for second hand ono7 rather than total no spend - checking out my first clothes swap event ever this weekend :)

@shadesofwinter I really like your black lacy skirt!

Loving the black and green outfits @shadesofwinter. I like green but DH doesn’t so I tend to steer away from it which is daft.

Ok so I broke my no spend due to the star jeans, albeit from brand alley, £8 more expensive but needed the 8 as they come quite big. I have the blue in a 10 and need to sell as too big. 😏 I’d buy those in an 8 if they were available too!

There were some nice T-shirt’s in hush in the sale but I broke my no spend as I know they wouldn’t be available in February!

Thanks @Ellapaella the Mom jeans are growing on me. Only like them with trainers (or flat sandals in summer) not with boots though. I agree the style of jeans you wear really suits you. Can’t you just take your measurements to work out your body shape type? Or doesn’t it work like that??
TBH not sure I agree with putting women into a few broad categories, you could have 100 women who are all “hourglass” but all look completely different IYSWIM?

I’ve always thought I’m hourglass but then I read on another thread if you go out at all at thighs you’re a pear - I do slightly so who knows maybe I’m an hourglass-pear!

Thanks for all the shoe love. On reflection, I think my issue yesterday is that when I bought the jumper I was about three quarters of a stone lighter, and I preferred it having a looser fit. I might try it with non-black trousers before it goes it the charity shop bag.

Today I’m wearing my beautiful silk dress from The Fold. On the basis that life is too short to save things for best. It’s probably my most expensive work outfit (both the dress and the boots were £££). I’m currently wearing it with an extra layer (I’m in the cold meeting room this morning). If I remember, I’ll take another photo once I’ve taken it off (back to my totally tropical office this afternoon).

Top: Hobbs
Dress: The Fold
Boots: Reiss

You all look so effortlessly glamorous. @oubliette your jumper is gorgeous! I wouldn’t be getting rid of that
@LadyBundleBrent Very nice outfit BUT I couldn’t help notice what looks like a corner bath in the background. We are trying to buy one, pls could you say what make it is and if it’s any good?

Life is definitely too short to save best for 'special' and on that basis I'm wearing a going out shirt today! But which I've struggled to style ( I've had this shirt for at least 7 years)

Shirt: Zara
Jeans: j crew
Shoes: Hobbs

@LadyBundleBrent Sorry, just noticed I put the wrong username re question about bath. Lovely outfit of course.
@Laska2Meryls My question above was meant for you. Thanks.

Finally catching up with the thread!

Welcome to all the newbies!

@toastfiend I love your jumpsuit (I’m obsessed with jumpsuits). I have L&Y dungarees, maybe I should get them out again soon. I love your trousers/belt too.

@PalacePaper I love your dress/scarf combo. That’s exactly how I wish I could style a scarf.

I really like the orange dress on you @KiteflyingKat & the mom jeans. I haven’t worn mine out yet. I wonder if they would work with my silver high tops 🤔

The dress arrived. It’s much creamer than I thought & the pattern was lovely. Unfortunately it’s was too sheer & you could see my pants. So it’s going back. Hoping m big sister will have something I can borrow ( she has lots of lovely Reiss dresses).

It’s my mums birthday today so we are all going out for a nice lunch. Not sure what to wear - too much choice! Deciding between the khaki jumpsuit I wore on Tuesday (if it’s not too creased) or my black MV jumpsuit. It’s a jumpsuit kinda day

Finally got round to posting!

Hush jeans
Boden white top
Hush jumper

@twosoups1972 you look great

Jeans were back in stock at hush so now have two pairs coming 🤦‍♀️

I’m 100% charity shop today, total outfit cost about £45 including brand new leather boots:

• cardi - LK Bennett
• top - Jigsaw
• wool skirt - Cos
• Boots - Random brand but comfy as slippers

@OublietteBravo dress looks gorgeous show us the whole thing

Here you go @KiteflyingKat - without the jumper.

Ha I ended up wearing coated jeans & a jumper! It was freezing out

Jumper: New Look
Coated jeans: Next
Boots: M&S
Headband: Next
Necklace: Missoma

I think I need some coated jeans! You all look great in them and they're a good option for an evening at the pub or similar...

I think my outfit today is probably a bit marmite but lots of people have commented! I really need to dig deeper into my wardrobe to pull out the random lesser-worn things...

I love your skirt @shadesofwinter (and for the record I hate marmite)

Finally having 5 minutes peace to sit down and catch up on all your lovely outfits.
*toastfiend I love your style and ellapella I too am coveting your jeans.
You have all inspired me with the no spend january, and that thread about only buying the things you really want. I'm not buying anything unless it's on my list. First thing will be a pair of air and grace trainers.
My outfit today is as follows:
Thick black leggings, shirt dress, fine knit black jumper and rocket dog ankle boots. All courtesy of New Life with a total cost of £30!

@shadesofwinter nice skirt!
I'm dressing down the Hush dress today with chunky boots. Weather is turning mild again... strangely warm for January, it was snowing up here this time last year.
