What are you wearing today? Lock down wardrobes

[Ellapaella]

Hello all - new thread

@Sooverthemill cool t shirt!

I’m joining too

Grey skinny jeans

Grey sweatshirt with rainbows down the sleeves and rainbow NASA/rocket picture

Tiny gold earrings and necklace

Will probably wear white trainers if I leave the house (unlikely as it's disgusting out)

Hi new joiners! Older people does anyone remember the slim woman with the thick blonde fringe? I used to love her outfits is she still here?

Jean's- Tesco
Sweatshirt- boohoo
Will wear with grey new look trainers

Welcome to all the new join-ers.

Grey, cold, and wet here today.

Top - ASOS
Dungarees - Lucy & Yak

@toastfiend how many dungarees do you have?

@Shadeslayer I think 12 pairs now? I buy and sell lots of preloved dungarees on the FB groups, so it's an ever-changing number and hard to keep track of! I don't keep any I don't wear regularly. I'm due a clear out of some I'm not so keen on for various reasons, so that number will go down once I get my act together and list them. They're my "thing", I suppose, in the same way some people have multiple pairs of shoes, or handbags etc. I wear them most days and some are real "playwear" and I keep them for walking the dogs/gardening etc. as I find them comfy and practical.

Was a regular contributer for a thread under a different username but put on half a stone and didn't feel confident to post. I have lost that half stone and whilst I'd love to lose another half stone I'm just glad have rid of my tyre! I have always been following though and am impressed by how lovely you all look. Most of the time I am in scruffs as I am very hard wearing on my clothes.

Have posted my outfit from yesterday and today. Both days I have on a complete set of hand me downs from my cousin!
No idea where the jeans are from or the leopard hoodie but I really like them both.
Black jumper from Next
Addidas sliders for knocking about the house, ditto zebra sandals which are from Tkmaxx.

@toastfiend I love your style and an so impressed with all your dungas.

I never buy second hand for fear of getting a bum deal I'd like to buy never know where to start.

Love your hoodie @Planetaryexplorer.

Thank you @Shadeslayer! I do recognise dungarees aren't for everyone, but they're comfy and make me happy. It depends what you're looking for, but I'm on several FB groups that are fab for buying and selling clothes, and tend to get lots of stuff for me and DS on them as the brands I like have lots of specific groups (L&Y for me and scandi clothing for DS). I always pay via Goods and Services on PayPal, then you have some recourse if stuff doesn't arrive or isn't as described (though I've never had a problem).

I really like your animal print hoody @Planetaryexplorer, I'm not sure what to wear today

Dress UP Friday here, so I'm in a New Look dress, and Vejas. I have a heat-tech top underneath, and opaque tights, yet have just put the heating on. It is so cold and foggy and rainy and YUCK!

@Judystilldreamsofhorses I like your dress, I guess I'm lucky here in the South it's windy but warm still & the rain has stopped.

I'm going for a long walk.

Hoody from Gap
T-shirt from Tesco
Leggings are Goodmove by M&S
Nikes from JD Sport

Sorry pic

Great dress @Judystilldreamsofhorses I might check out New Look again for some new midi dresses.

Did anyone here buy the new dungarees from L&Y which came out yesterday? They’re not for me (gave me Saved By The Bell vibes & we’re just too pastel for me), but they look very fun!

Feeling very girly today.

Top: M&S (it was white, but I ice dyed it a couple of days ago)
Dungarees: Lucy & Yak
Silver smile necklace: Tiffany

Also dungarees here - half price in Matalan yesterday (£11) and I love them! With a Boden stripy too underneath

Love your dress @Judystilldreamsofhorses.

I did @happytobemrsg. Well, more accurately, DH bought them for me for my birthday. They're right up my street, I like the Kapeesh type vibe, and I've accepted I'll never own Kapeesh themselves.

Thank you @Terralee @toastfiend @happytobemrsg - when it arrived it had a massive un-sewn seam, which I repaired because it was OOS in a size 10 by then. I tweeted NL who said they would refund me 25%, but they never did. Anyway, today is the first time I have worn it and there are loose threads all over the place. Because it was cheap the seam allowance is tiny, so I suspect it has been a bad buy, even though I love it!

Ellapaella it was actually ok. Hand sanitizer at the door, arrows on the floor, but no queues, and although you couldn't try anything on, you could still flick through to find your size. Hoping to get round to trying on tonight whilst DH is engrossed in the football!

@Planetaryexplorer that's a great hoody!

@Judystilldreamsofhorses I really love that dress.

Oops - today seems to have flown by. I’m only just getting around to all the things I normally do at breakfast time!

Jumper: Next
Trousers: Warehouse
Trainers: Jigsaw

Afternoon all. Found the new thread - thanks @Ellapaella.

Love that t and those jeans @Sooverthemill

@itssquidstella don't blame you it's pouring down here today. Given up on summer wear for now. Love those jeans.

Welcome @bathbedandbeyond. Love that outfit / top.

@toastfiend love those dungarees - they always make me smile.

@Planetaryexplorer I'm usually in scruffs too. Love that hoodie and those Zebra sandals.

@Judystilldreamsofhorses I love that dress.

@happytobemrsg love those dungarees and the ice dye top.

@Maketeanotwar I tried those dungarees on too. I liked like Andy Pandy. Don't think my body shape fits dungarees but this thread makes me keep trying them.

Got absolutely drenched today walking the dog so am now in my comfy slouchy gear. Got a zoom quiz later so may get changed

Ignore the mess in the background. Had to use the mirror in my stepsons room. Messy is not the word!!!.

Harem pants - Hush
Cami - jigsaw
Birkenstock's - T K Max.

Thanks for the new thread @Ellapaella! Am using last day off rounding up everything put aside for the charity shop so in scruffs .
@happytobemrsg love the ice-dyed top

Hello new joiners!

@happytobemrsberg I'm very impressed with your dying skills

@sooverthemill also excellent tie dye!

I've just got back from the charity shop. It's was £2 for a bag and take whatever you like. I got A LOT. I was a bit embarrassed but because they know me they were pointing things out and saying take that, and that, it's all got to go.

So much lovely stuff for the house including a lovely set of plates that when I got them home I noticed are wedgewood and a quick google shows they sell for £30 each on eBay.

I got lots of clothes including coats and and shoes too.

A quick snippet of just a few of the bits.

Dresses

Oliver bonas
George
Shein

And some tops and jeans - this really is just the tip of the iceberg.

Jeans - river island
Tops M&S and zara
