@Sooverthemill you look lovely, I love your dress. Sorry to hear your DD is unwell. Hopefully it's "just" a standard bug and not Covid.

@DKanin welcome! Not me with the Hush jeans, though, I'm afraid, though I agree they're lovely. @EllaPaella is it you who has Hush jeans? So sorry if not, I'm having a bit of a mind blank today!

Bit grey here today, though apparently it's set to brighten up, so I've got my boob trousers out! Feels like it's been a long week for some reason.

Trousers - Lucy & Yak
Top - H&M

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 22/05/2020 09:40

Gosh, @Sooverthemill I hope your daughter is okay. @toastfiend those trousers are great!

Cold and rainy here, so I'm in a Whistles dress, Snag tights, and my DM monkey boots.

(My dress is green with black leopard print, that is an absolutely terrible photo now I see it on screen.)

Justonedayatatime11 · 22/05/2020 10:58

Past few days have been too hot for anything other than shorts and t shirt but trying to keep pushing myself to wear one of my many new dresses! This one is from new look, think it's one of my favourites. I also had not one but two Fairfax and favor boxes delivered this morning.... very bad!

Thanks @TheOnlyMrsW
It's really windy & much cooler today so I can't decide what to do or what to wear

PalacePaper · 22/05/2020 11:15

@Terralee I also love your flip flops Smile and @Judystilldreamsofhorses the green leopard print is great.

Sorry to hear things are so difficult for you and DD @Sooverthemill Thanks sending you lots of positive wishes, I hope DD is feeling better soon. I think your dress looks lovely today.

It's strange weather here, very windy and overcast but still warm. I'm wearing dress from Sainsbury's and my new John Lewis belt Smile

I love your dress @Sooverthemill it give me Pretty Woman at the polo match vibes! Beautiful. Sorry your DD is unwell. I hope it’s just a normal bug.

In love with your dress @PalacePaper. was it a recent purchase?

Some new dungarees arrived yesterday from L&Y. I absolutely love them. The orange is beautiful 🧡

Think AF is arriving shortly so I’m feeling posted and achy. Also feel like I’ve eaten crap/not exercised enough lately so I need to sort that out. Was cold & overcast this morning so I delayed my run til this afternoon, but now it’s heating up so I’m going to melt.

Definitely not doing #dressupFriday today. Going for comfort in my favourite dungarees

Top: M&S
Dungarees: Lucy & Yak

Lovely outfit @Oubliettebravo I do like those Boden trousers.

@KitefkyingKat I agree with @sooverthemill that is a lovely outfit. It's very french / Audrey Hepburnesque.

@Sooverthemill sorry to hear your dad isnstruggling. Fingers crossed it's nothing serious. That dress looks lovely today though. Everyone on here seems to have lovely Boden items. I can never find anything I like.

@softpebbles. It's blowing a gale here so I'm still in my dog walking gear. You look very cosy as does @TheOnlyMrsW

@toastfiend I love those boob trousers. Always make me smile when you wear them.

@Judystilldreamsofhorses I love that whistles dress. When I worked in an office all my work clothes were whistles but don't get to wear them now. Though it reminded me I have a whistles grey knitted dress in similar style. Must dig that out.

Welcome @hiptobeasquare!!

@happy love the orange dungarees!
@hiptobeasquare welcome. We are a friendly bunch

Thanks fir the dress love but I got so cold ( though it’s warm out it’s cold inside) I changed!
Ancient linen shirt from Boden
Gap jeans
Same sandals
Can’t do proper photo as am in DDs room
Our testing kit arrived but only one so have booked another. 119 gets you through to the very nice team 7Am to 11pm. You just need to be able to see an email during the call and there seems to be no restrictions on them now though potentially shielded people get priority? We both still feel bad with sore throats now added one. Bet it’s just a summer cold but oh my gosh I feel like a truck ran me over

@Sooverthemill sorry to hear you all feel poorly, hope it's not covid.

MerlinsButler · 22/05/2020 16:25

@Palacepaper love the dress and belt.

@happytobemrsg those orange dungarees are lovely.

Welcome @hiptobeasquare lovely outfit. careful but you will find yourself spending money. So many nice outfits / clothes. It's a bunch of bad influences.

@Sooverthemill 🤞re the test. Love your changed outfit too. Have you given in and ordered any new sandals yet???

Has been overcast and very windy all day so no shorts for me. Next doors tree has split in half so that was a bit of excitement and means we can't go in the garden so

Jeans - mint velvet and t shirt - matalan - sorry about the poor photo.

I'm saving my new Hush jeans til tomorrow when I have to take a parcel to the post office and then do a supermarket and pet food shop. It's quite sad when I'm excited to run errands.

@MerlinsButler I am already eyeing up those Hush alma jeans! Grin

TheOnlyMrsW · 22/05/2020 18:16

@hiptobesquare welcome! @Justonedayatatime11 and @PalacePaper dresses are lovely. @Sooverthemill hope that it's"just" a bug not the bug and you both feel well soon

happytobemrsg · 22/05/2020 19:56

My Stitchfix box arrived!! @MerlinsButler

They definitely understood my style but I’m not happy that they sent me earrings after I said my ears weren’t pierced!! Other than that, I’m really pleased. I’ve told them I’m happy to keep everything so long as they give me the 20% off considering they messed up on the earrings.

Khaki trousers- Stitchfix own brand - super lightweight & mid rise which I like. A tiny bit tighter round the tummy than I’d like but I’m a bit bloated atm.

Black/white floral top- Stitchfix own brand - didn’t like this at all when I got it out of the box but once I tucked it in my mom jeans I loved it 🖤

Black dress - Oasis - a date night / meal out sort of dress Really flattering on. I don't own a pretty black dress. I like the midi length

Cream ribbed tank top - Warehouse - LOVE THIS - can’t wait to wear it with my L&Y Alexas Or even under dungarees

Oh wow @happytobemrsg I love all those items on you. The outfits you've made look great.

It's such fun when a box arrives isn't it. Really glad you like yours. Definitely should give you the 20% discount as it's their mistake. Hope you get it sorted.

MerlinsButler · 22/05/2020 20:05

@hiptobeasquare I saw them on @Ellapaella and @sooverthemill - so I blame them for making me shop. This thread is dangerous for my bank balance.

I went for my usual size 10'as @Ellapaella said hers were a good fit and pleased I did.

If you look back at their posts you'll see the jeans. They seem to look different on everyone from a fit perspective but I love mine. I'm wearing them tomorrow. Smile

MerlinsButler · 22/05/2020 20:07

@happytobemrsg just seen I've got a credit on stitch fix so I assume that you used my intro link. Thank you. Smile

Sickoffamilydrama · 22/05/2020 21:06

Love the outfits @happytobemrsg so sorry to hear you DD is unwell @Sooverthemill the Boden dress looked great on you.
Today I'm in my Ted Baker jumpsuit without the sleeves rolled up so I'm nice an warm it was actually perfect for today's weird weather.

Love all of those clothes @happytobemrsg really nice.

PalacePaper · 23/05/2020 08:06

Thank you for the dress love yesterday Smile  I usually wear it with tights and boots in the winter, yesterday I ended up putting leggings on under it as it was so windy and actually it looked ok. @happytobemrsg it's not recent, I bought it last summer I think - but I find sainsburys often have good dresses.

I LOVE your stitch fix box, all the photos look great. I haven't gone for it yet but I am getting more and more tempted...

Sooverthemill · 23/05/2020 08:33

DD now has white spots on her tonsils so that may explain everything. Took the test last night and waiting for it to be picked up by courier. Let's hope it's just tonsillitis!

I'm on dog and DD duty so up at 5 in effort to stop dog barking early morning ( dog owners, any tips? He's started barking from 5 am since amp out November and we've tried to ignore it to no avail so now setting him an alarm in kitchen and one of us gets up at same time a bit later each day)

It's sunny but very windy!

Thank you for the compliments yesterday @Sooverthemill and @MerlinsButler . I’ve been feeling a bit rubbish about myself during lockdown so it means a lot. Hope you/your dd feel better @Sooverthemill, oh and I really like your sandals today.

@happytobemrsg glad you like the Stichfix box - I like the black dress on you. Will you be subscribing? What happened to your personal Susie shop btw? I dropped off this thread for ages so missed hearing about it.

Today I’m wearing a very old Whistles silk top that was a charity shop find, M&S “mom” shorts
