Great haul, @Ellapaella - I had a look at the sale last night but nothing grabbed me other than a t-shirt which I might revisit on payday if it’s still there. (Damn these five week months!)

It’s sunny here for once, although there are a lot of clouds about so maybe I have peaked too soon. Wearing Monki t-shirt, ancient plisse culottes from Topshop, and Primark flip-flops to sit in the garden.

Been to a see a friend with 2 lively toddlers in their garden so just wore black Tu leggings, khaki striped Tesco T-shirt, Primark denim jacket & my black River Island sandals.

Not really worth a pic!! But had fun.

Terralee · 20/06/2020 14:47

@EllaPaella I love your Sezane stuff especially the cream jumper

Softpebbles · 20/06/2020 16:53

@Ellapaella love those bits. I’m trying to be good. DH’s birthday and just ordered him a few bits from Lacoste.

I had a brand alley parcel delivered today but it contains Lycra so nothing exciting!

Justonedayatatime11 · 20/06/2020 17:25

I went to Outfit today in the desperate hope they still had Oasis clothing in stock. Came out with 4 pairs of jeans and 2 dresses Hmm. BUT I'm telling myself it's ok because I won't be able to but their jeans anymore, so it's good I stocked up now! Grin

Parkmama · 20/06/2020 17:28

I'm wearing baggy £7 yoga pants from groupon and a sweatshirt from the sale in scamp and dude. Haven't worn jeans since March 🤣

happytobemrsg · 20/06/2020 18:15

Really love your jumper @Ellapaella it’s gorgeous

JaceLancs · 20/06/2020 18:25

Pink floral linen dress from M n S
Fit flops

Shannith · 20/06/2020 19:30

Thank you all for you charity shop comments! And the legs one. I swear it's the mirror. No one in real life has mentioned my legs ever.

I'll settle in and catch up in all your lovely outfits now.

Shannith · 20/06/2020 19:45

@ellapella love the sesane tops, beautiful. I spent a bit of time looking at their site last night. So much lovely stuff.

@Miseryisabutterfly I loved you one legged dress, glad you had a good night.

I really need some waking sandals. The pajr I currently own wear an emergency buy on holiday about 5 years ago and are starting to fall apart. No idea what brand they are.

Despite being deeply unstylish- look at them - they have served me well.

I'm semi rural (small village anyway) and so all dog walks are fields and such like. I swear not one person in my village owns a pair of heels.

So I need practical but would like something that I could also wear for normal life too. Not black as they don't really go with the occasional dresses but pale colours are going get trashed.

I do a lot of miles so I'm pretty sure I can find some comfy ones in an outdoor place but does anyone have any ideas for ones that might pass muster somewhere that's not a field?

I am determined to join this thread after lurking on the last few! I will start tomorrow as I'm currently in the bath after a busy day chipping all the old tiles off my kitchen and cutting down a dead coninfer

KiteflyingKat · 20/06/2020 22:51

Welcome all the newcomers!

Today dungarees (ebay) and Reiss top

@Shannith wow- great haul! Our charity shops haven't reopened yet but it's a bit of a hobby for me.

@Miseryisabutterfly love that black dress. Very trendy. I think it would look awful on me at the mo as I'm carrying 2 extra stone, but it looks great on you.

I'd love to get stitch boxes. I tend to be a bit scared of more up to date fashion and it would push me to look a bit more put together.

Really like all the dungarees too. @KiteflyingKat where are the navy ones from?

@Ellapaella I've never heard of Sezanne. Love the blue sunnies- Oliver Bonas do the best accessories.

Off to get dressed.

Sooverthemill · 21/06/2020 09:15

Welcome to all the newbies. Post photos when you feel comfortable, we love to see what the outfits look like and honestly everyone is very kind and supportive.

@Shannith have you looked on the Teva website? Or Merrill ? They are the ones I get DH and he has a pair which during august he can wear to office with chinos ( they are allowed to be relaxed in the height of summer..,).

What a rubbish day! Have just lost an hour of my life trying to engage DH with the colour Scheme for the kitchen refurbishment. He focuses on weird things!

So it's going to be a very relaxed day, no walks as both dogs can't walk ( limpy Luca and injured Percy birth in the bench) and we have our new HD TV to watch! DD still so poorly so probably will just rest all day

Tee: madewell, old
Jeans: hush
Sandals : air and grace
Jumper in case: hush

Enjoy your days

@Peachypips78 super cheap from eBay - think they were £11 including postage. Didn’t want to spend a lot as not sure how much I would wear them

Peachypips78 · 21/06/2020 10:12

Jumpsuit... Sainsbury's. That's it!

@KiteflyingKat new to the thread but wanted to say how good those dungarees look. Have you got the seller details on eBay? I've seen lots on there but no idea which ones look good!

QueenCT · 21/06/2020 11:07

I’m in my jeans-and-a-jumper default outfit. I think I’m more inclined to attempt to be stylish when I’m going to the office. I have so much nice work wear that hasn’t been touched in months. I seem to be in a bit of a rut.

Jumper: Warehouse (close up to show the sparkly studs)
Jeans: Jigsaw (fast becoming a favourite pair - definitely worth the sale price of £45)
Trainers: Clarks

I'm wearing Hush harems, Sezane jumper and Havainana flip flops.

Thanks @Ellapaella it's warm here but horrendous bouts of rain!
Mostly it's annoying feeling like I need the toilet 24/7 Grin but I've got some lovely antibiotics

happytobemrsg · 21/06/2020 12:08

Intermittent rain & sun today. Makes it very difficult to decide what to wear! Popped to my mum & dads garden to see my dad for Father’s Day. He wasn’t very impressed with my trousers but liked my leather jacket 🤷🏻‍♀️

Jumper: Only
Trousers: Lucy & Yak
Belt: Lucy & Yak

@QueenCT I missed that, kidney infections are horrid. I used to suffer a lot. Hope you feel better soon
@Ellapaella thank you, she’s still dreadfully unwell but trying not to worry
