What are you wearing today? Lock down wardrobes

[Ellapaella]

Hello all - new thread

I was convinced I took a pic of my outfit this morning. Guess not. However this is me about an hour ago. After Bathtime with the toddler and baby. Baby learned to splash. And she loves it.

Outfit was newlook purpley grey long sleeve top blue skinnies leopard print flats.

New hangers have landed. So need to switch things over. Yay!

Beautiful outfits today crew!!!

Love the space dungas!!! And the fancy blouse.

Xx

Thank you, ladies - I had a good cry and then a long bath with Grazia magazine and my Kindle. Some days are inexplicably hard!

Needs organising some more and need my baskets to arrive for shoes etc but. All clothes on naice hangers and hangers to spare.

You look great, @cravingthelook

I've just ordered a pair of Levi's balloon leg jeans - I can't remember who here has a pair but I've had my eye on them since you posted a picture! They're arriving next week, when I'll be away :(, but I'll put up a picture when I'm back.

Everyone looks great in the colours!
Still in my linen trousers but they will need a wash tomorrow! Enjoying the challenge I gave myself

Top: TU and I bought it in 2006 for dress down Fridays in the Cabinet Office where I worked at the time
Trousers: fat face as before

I’m in my Boden jeans for a 5th (and final) day. How is it not the weekend yet? Im sure I’ve worked a whole week since the last one.

This is the first time I'm wearing these jeans.. unsure around the tummy.

Have to thank itssquidstella for pointing me in the direction of this Hush dress. Not something I'd normally go for but I really love it. DH and I are going out for dinner tomorrow night and I'm really looking forward to an opportunity to dress up!

@Justonedayatatime11 fab dress, I'm also very jealous of your restaurant reservation, we have one for the weekend after next but it feels a long way off!
@Wildernesstips both of the dresses from the last couple of days are lovely, I'm so in awe of people who can do creative things like make clothes, I can barely sew a button or draw a stickman 😞.
@toastfiend @itssquidstella thank you for the dungaree/trouser compliments, the lovely feedback from all of the posters on this thread has given me a real confidence boost over the last few months x

It’s me with the jeans @itssquidstella - I have three pairs!

Another stinking wet cold day here. Wearing Levi’s 501s, Cos jumper, DM monkey boots.

I really like your outfit today @Judystilldreamsofhorses. I'm another who is consider the Levi balloon leg jeans. I love them and have sold my Lucy & Yak Addisons on as they're too big in one size, but I think will be tight in the smaller, so now looking for a replacement that's similar but that I can get to fit me.

Off to the chiropractor today. Hoping she can sort my shoulder and collarbone pain out.

Top - Lucy & Yak, only thing I bought from the new collection as I like the slogan.
Jeans - Lucy & Yak

Excuse my dodgy socks, theyll be covered by H&M trainers when I go out!

New look top - which I discovered in the wardrobe (and someone else on the thread has)
Topshop skinnies
And flipflops.

Cold and wet here.
Jeans - redherring
Jumper - jack wills
Scarf - new from the Hush sale

I ordered a couple of tops in the sale too. The shirt was way too big which is a shame as I loved it and the other is yet to arrive so hopefully that’ll be better.

I like that top, @ememem84 - New Look have some nice summer stuff at the moment.

@Judystilldreamsofhorses you're my inspiration! 😆 very excited about the jeans' arrival. Do you find they look better with tighter or looser tops?

Thank you @toastfiend - I am trying to look a bit french!

I noticed the balloon leg Levi’s were recommended in the Guardian today so expect a run on them...

@itssquidstella I always wear tops which are either fitted or tucked in because I am quite hippy, regardless of bottoms. I think a long or loose top might not work with the jeans because of the high waist. In winter I tend to wear slightly cropped jumpers that just sit on my waistband . I am excited to see yours when they arrive - which colour did you get?

@Judystilldreamsofhorses that's what made me buy them - the Guardian linkthrough! I got the blue and will probably also wear with slightly cropped tops as I am sadly wide of hip.

What are balloon leg jeans?

So many lovely outfits today. @thetrinityisshite those jeans look fine around the tummy - whole outfit is lovely.

I love this thread - it’s made me look in a more objective light at what I wear and I’m not happy with the combo I have on today 😳!

Kimono style top - Everything5Pounds
Trousers - Joules as earlier in week

@thetrinityisshite love the leopard jeans
