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˜‚

Working from home and not feeling great -

  • top - Jigsaw
  • joggers - Whistles
  • pumps - Next

All second hand

So I'm keeping the hush onyx size 8 as it's a much better fit. I also had a couple of finery jumpsuits arrive. One is lovely but too long so I'm going to see if my seamstress ( I sound posh) can alter it, she's coming tomorrow to see and if not will send back . The other is a red denim boiler suit which I really like but is too baggy I think so have reordered in a smaller size. This has to be vanity sizing, I'm not that small

Looking effortlessly cool as ever @Ellapaella. @toastfiend, I love the jumpsuit on you. Great boots @OublietteBravo your legs look endless in that outfit. I also love the Hush top @Sooverthemill- look forward to seeing the new purchases.

I'm sitting in my hands to stop the urge to splurge on all the sale emails coming in. Wearing a dress that my DDs chose and bought for me, bless them, from &OS and ancient navy boots from Pied a Terre.

Love your dress @cathy šŸ‘

twosoups1972 · 30/01/2020 19:03

@cathyandclare your dds gave great taste! Is it this season?

cathyandclare · 30/01/2020 19:06

Thanks @twosoups1972, it was lovely of them! It's from a couple of year's ago. :)

Had a lovely day today shopping with my mum who got her SBS style analysis for Christmas. It was so good seeing her smiling & standing taller trying on new things & being pleasantly surprised. She bought: trainers, 2x jeans, 4x tops, a dress, a long cardigan & a necklace- all for £200!

I wore my Hush Becca jumpsuit (incredibly comfy) with my cream cord jacket from MV.

Thank you everyone who commented re the boilersuit. 😊 Having spent a day in it I've remembered why I've not sold it yet. I do love it and it's so comfy. Completely agree that I should try it with different colour accessories, though. 😊

Outfit change for me as I went to a work event this evening.

Dress - Oasis
Blazer - My Best Friend's Wardrobe
Boots - Fairfax & Favor
Earrings - Banana Republic

On holiday somewhere warm
Today wore very plain jaeger black linen dress and black fit flops

Kahu · 31/01/2020 03:43

Delurking to ask @ellapaella if you remember which cut your Levi’s are? I remember you saying ages ago but now can’t remember. Are they 501’s?

They look like my much loved vintage 501’s that I wore back in the ā€˜90’s. I left them in the wardrobe at my mum’s house to be kept for future wear / to pass on to my unborn daughter (because you know, the perfect jean) Smile . I rue the day she threw them out in a fit of decluttering.

I have seen 501’s around again recently but they are all very cropped and there seems to be a few versions. Yours are ā¤ļø

Ellapaella · 31/01/2020 06:51

Hi Kahu - they are 501 tapered leg boyfriend jeans. I got them in the sale at Debenhams early last year. They are my favourite jeans - so versatile and go with everything.

Purplecatshopaholic · 31/01/2020 08:12

Office today but a bit casual as it’s a Friday! Shoes from Tory Burch ages ago. Trousers from an ASOS sale with Gucci belt and very vintage (ie very old) Dior top. Not so cold today for ditched the boots for today at least!

Purplecatshopaholic · 31/01/2020 08:13

Not sure about the trousers actually, hence why they never get worn. The colour is Tobacco apparently. Any thoughts?

Talisin · 31/01/2020 08:29

@Purplecatshopaholic I like the trousers (also the photobombing dog), they suit you.

In blue and gold and stars today, seemed appropriate.
Emanuelle dress (Hush)
Jacket (Tu)
Boots (Next)
T-Bar necklace (Next)
Stars bracelet (Hush)

I’ve dug out a pair of shoes which I’ve not worn in a while. They’re very comfortable and well-made - perhaps I should wear them more often. I think it might be time to retire this pair of jeans, although I’ll probably wait until the end of the season before doing so.

Jumper: Uniqlo
Jeans: Gap
Shoes: Church’s

@Talisin - I’m deliberately in blue and gold today šŸ‡ŖšŸ‡ŗ

Purplecatshopaholic · 31/01/2020 08:44

@Talisin that jacket is epic! And I love those shoes @Oubliettebravo. Totally should have gone gold and blue myself today! (ps @Talisin, glad you like my dog. He loves a photobombing opp!)

CatOnABeanbag · 31/01/2020 08:47

Hello, long-time lurker popping up to say hi. And also... @clientqueen I LOVE that skirt and the way you've styled it! Is it current and have I misread or is it actually from Morrisons,ie chuck it in your shopping trolley?!

Loving all the blue and gold today too Sad

Sooverthemill · 31/01/2020 08:58

Ahhh wish I had blue and gold ( rapidly tries to think of what's in wardrobe)

Easy to take off clothes as I have seamstress coming to see if she can alter a jumpsuit to fit on my bottom half ( as I am a very short person) and I've loved this forever and want to be tall and elegant

tee: Fwp by Rae old
Trousers: boyfriend star from hush new sale
Shoes: kurt Geiger old

@purplecatshopaholic love that sweater from yesterday!
@cathyandclare what a beautiful dress! Fab choice by your DDs

No work today so jeans and sweatshirt, both from M&S, and DMs. Love the blue and gold outfit idea for today - sadly gold/mustard are not colours for me (but I guess I do have stars on my jumper...)

@sooverthemill that jumpsuit is gorgeous. Hope your seamstress can make it workšŸ¤žšŸ»

OublietteBravo · 31/01/2020 09:27

Hahaha - two of my colleagues had the same idea. We all match! (Gold/mustard jumper + blue jeans) GrinBlush

Ellapaella · 31/01/2020 09:48

@Purplecatshopaholic I love your trousers - great outfit

MoltoAgitato · 31/01/2020 09:56

Delurking to say thank you - I love watching this thread for inspiration and think you’re all fab!
