Just for fun. How are you all staying comfy and “stylish”?

Those are fab! Grin

SamVimesFavouriteDragon · 15/03/2020 10:25

Oh yes I'm up for a bit of lighthearted - ness Grin our house is always cold so I'm wearing fleece lined leggings, thermals, a jumper dress and two pairs of socks (and a blanket) - I expect to see this look in vogue any day now!

Thinkle · 15/03/2020 10:35

@SamVimesFavouriteDragon it’s all about how you accessorise it 😉

Those are awesome @Thinkle can I ask where they are from? We have VERY limited stylish warm sock choices here in Aus... makes me sad...
I'm going to be in my uniqlo waffle tops and lounge pants, plus Tasmanian merino wool socks when we eventually get locked down

I appear to have found my people! Tasmanian merino socks sound dreamy Envy

Thinkle · 15/03/2020 11:13

They are from a local shop but I remembered a bit about them (men’s, made in Japan and cotton) and.... I’ve found some! (Different colours)

I've got some socks that look like cat paws. I'm digging them out later.

An insouciant charcoal grey and millennial pink two piece here...also known as New Look PJs with napping koalas printed on the trousers.

Tasmanian merino wool...we call them "clouds" in our house...as in "its cold...gunna go put my clouds on..." so warm and snug

Thanks for the link @Thinkle they are such a fun sock!

Stylish nana knitted roll neck jumper and hand me down jeans from my SIL (who probably got them from my other SIL, wore them for 10 years and then passed them on 😂 - pretty sure they are very very old Dorothy Perkins branding).

Love your socks, Thinkle! 😍 What’s the sizing like, please? (Noticed the ones that you linked to are ‘one size’.)

Thinkle · 15/03/2020 13:31

Hey starfish, I have size six feet and they are just ok on me, bordering big.

Bien - you Nana has serious skills!

JaceLancs that is exactly the sort of accessory I'm missing! You look very cosy

Lily193 · 16/03/2020 10:02

Love those socks OP. Currently wearing a pair of cashmere bed socks with my flares - not a great look but very cosy.

AdoraBell · 17/03/2020 13:13

Loving the Happy Socks. 😁

itallwentwrongat30 · 17/03/2020 13:26

Not in self isolation but have been sent to work from home - currently wearing fleece leggings and a very unflattering jumper dress - with a hot water bottle tucked underneath said dress LOL

olivehater · 17/03/2020 13:28

I’ve got my wet look leggings on and a gorgeous new polkadot hoody I got in the French connection sale.
