Oh that's a lovely anklet, @ememem84

OublietteBravo · 08/07/2020 08:10

Grey and damp this morning. I have too many meetings to get away with dungarees, so I’m wearing a jumpsuit instead.

Jumper: Warehouse
Jumpsuit: Phase Eight
Shoes: Clarks

@itssquidstella thanks! The artist is a lady called Lisa Le Brocq she’s local to me. Beautiful silver things.

It’s rubbish weather so I’m miserable. Means I can’t even go outside. Oh well
Yesterday I chopped 5 inches off my hair. Don’t usually do this ! But it was annoying me and I know there’s no ping in trying to get an appointment in August ( first time I can go out) as all the second homers are here plus all the holiday makers. So two pigtails and chop!
Also having send back £200 worth of sale stuff I bought a pair of Russell and Bromley shoes I’ve been looking at for a year. Won’t wear until autumn but I know I will love them

I did have a lie in until almost 8 today which was wonderful as DD been sleeping badly which has a knock on effect

@happytobemrsg I worked in Whitehall 7/7 but had the day off and I was so nervous traveling back in afterwards. Some days took a few hours to get on the tube ( I used the same line) and DH used to coach me on the phone ! But I took each day at a time and our managers were great ( I worked for Blair)
Tee:ancient Boden ( it has bleach splashes on!)
Dungarees:fat face
Sandals: air and grace

So I got changed! Was just too hot.
In a rush so pulled out first tee and easy trousers
Tee: very old hush
Trousers: also old hush!

AnUnlikelyWorldofInvisibleShad · 08/07/2020 09:45

Its a grey and drizzly day here. Im wearing a breton top from Bam and wide legged trousers from Saint and Sofia but im not actually sure the outfit flatters me. Comfy though.

Love the outfit, Shad

It's wet and humid here so although I thought I was appropriately dressed, I was too hot outside.
Fatface denim dress, Allsaints jacket and I was wearing black suede Joules chelsea boots

Wearing H&M t-shirt, Whistles jeans, Stan Smiths.

Talisin · 08/07/2020 14:44

As I’m finally back at work (although not today) I’m starting to make an effort again rather than is-it-sofa-comfy? as the main criteria! I have joined the L&Y dungaree club today for the first time with a pair of the teal cord ones over an oldish orangey red tee from Hush & rainbow glitter trainers from Next.

That was a stunning dress from Anthropologie you were wearing last week, @toastfiend

Thanks everyone for your warm welcome Smile

@Ellapaella My wardrobes are painted in F&B emulsion - left over from DD’s bedroom. I think the colour was Calamine?

Today I’m in decorating clothes so no pic but here’s yesterday

Shirt: Cos (in need of an iron)
Vest: ancient Primark I think - last remnant of breastfeeding days
Jeans: Ivy

I currently don’t fit into most of my nicest clothes so it’s very monotonous day in and out but also motivation to shift those few lockdown lbs so I can zip all my old jeans up Grin

Wow @Sooverthemill I was in college then so thankfully I wasn’t going into London at all. I hate wearing the mask now - I think I’m tying it too tight as it’s hurting the back of my ears but I’m too anxious not to 🤷🏻‍♀️

@Talisin those dungarees are absolutely perfect on you. I bought Run & Fly teals as I couldn’t get my hands on Lucy & Yak ones. It’s a lovely colour. I’d love some more L&Y cords - my Green Bay ones are crazy comfy.

Very boring outfit today:
Jumper: Only
Dungarees: Lucy & Yak
Necklace: Alighieri- it’s new! Bought it for myself to celebrate my birthday last Sunday as it’s a crab - the sign for cancer ♋️

@happytobemrsg try this ear saver DD got DH one because he has hearing aids and found it really hard to manage the mask for his one trip out a week ( still shielding) and this makes it much more comfortable for him

Sooverthemill · 08/07/2020 16:33

Or this

Ellapaella · 08/07/2020 16:39

We've had sunshine today ☀️
I took my 18 year old ds out for lunch. We sat outside at our local beach cafe, I had crab and salmon salad. A lovely afternoon. So nice to be out in an actual restaurant doing normal things!
Anyway I wore my Toast dress and a denim jacket as there was a slight breeze. I absolutely love this dress and can't wait to wear it more often.

Ah so many of you saying it’s warm. I have been freezing all day. My nails keep going blue because I am cold 🙈I’ve jeans, T-shirt and chunky cardi on. X

TheOnlyMrsW · 08/07/2020 18:00

@Ellapaella the dress is lovely, such a great colour
@Talisin loving your trainers as well, are they new? My Next catalogue came last week and the trainers all looked so summery

V jealous of the people with sun, so cold today I'm back in woolly tights 😢.
Dress - Ruby and Daisy
Boots - FatFace

Such lovely outfits today. I particularly love the rainbow trainers.

Talisin · 08/07/2020 18:51

@Ellapaella that toast dress is gorgeous!

@TheOnlyMrsW I got the trainers a couple of days before lockdown so they’ve not had much of an outing yet. They’re actually from the children’s range but they go up to size 7 (41 so really 71/2) here

Ellapaella · 08/07/2020 19:07

I've bought some lovely boots from the kids range at next before in my size, also Boden go up to a 7 in the girls shoes and for some reason the girls shoes are a wider fit than the women's so I've had some gems there before as well.
Love the trainers Tailsin - and your dungas.

Like your outfit @EllaPaella

I haven't posted recently as been back at work wearing a uniform & just wearing leggings & T-shirt to change into to walk home.... excitement

Megatron · 08/07/2020 19:23

@Judystilldreamsofhorses LOVE your jeans. I love this thread too but haven't plucked up the courage to post a photo yet!

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 08/07/2020 19:37

@Ellapaella that dress is so pretty. It is freezing here, 12 degrees. I’m meeting some friends tomorrow and it will be 12 degrees AND rain. (We’re not allowed indoors still.)

Thank you @Megatron - I think they are now in the sale...!

happytobemrsg · 08/07/2020 19:42

Thanks @Sooverthemill! I’ve just ordered one
