@ferretface great outfit - very glam and nice trousers - plus an excellent bargain.

Looking good @Sickoffamilydrama @OublietteBravo @Sooverthemill

My new riding boots have turned up. I'll have to start riding better to do them justice.

@Shannith I absolutely love the way your cat is seemingly regarding your boots with a critical eye 😀. Great boots - and everyone's outfits too. It's month end reporting here so I was in pyjamas all day .... 😳

Shannith · 05/08/2020 22:17

@Lobsterquadrille2 bloody cat as she's known. A foster than seems to be staying. Has paired up with my actual cat and taught her to hunt. That look she's giving me... she's copying the look I gave her as a rescued a very vocal juvenile backside from my bedroom earlier.

Shannith · 05/08/2020 22:19

Oh dear umm. Blackbird obviously. No backsides, juvenile or otherwise have been seen in my bedroom for quite some time.

Justonedayatatime11 · 05/08/2020 23:09

Ooh Shannith I like your boots! I just bought 3 pairs of Dublin boots Blush. I think I may have a boot obsession going on since lockdown....

Miseryisabutterfly · 05/08/2020 23:16

@Shannith you are funny 😂 your boots are fab. I’m very jealous of those of you who get to ride!

I hope everyone is well and don’t mind me barging in again. I’ve been working hard (not very successfully) to lose some lockdown flab before I post again. You all look lovely as ever and I’m feeling inspired to make an effort!

@Ellapaella thanks so much for adding me to the thread, it felt so nice to be remembered. Especially given I’m so flaky!

OublietteBravo · 06/08/2020 08:16

Fab boots @Shannith (and a great photobomb by the cat).

Once again it is supposed to be hot, but actually seems to be cool and overcast. In fact the sun isn’t meant to come out until 6pm (by which point we will be on our way North to see my parents).

Jumper: Next
Trousers: Boden
Shoes: Jigsaw

How clever @Sooverthemill. I am rubbish at all things creative.

Walked the dog this morning and was sweating by the time I got home. Changed from trousers to shorts. No picture as very boring!

Shannith · 06/08/2020 11:22

@Justonedayatatime11 that's seriously impressive! Pictures?

Justonedayatatime11 · 06/08/2020 13:53

Shannith 3 pairs of Dublin Kalmar long boots (waiting on the tan to be delivered) and 3 pairs of boots from Fairfax and Favor. Just what I needed to be buying when it's currently 30 degrees here!

Oh I love them especially the leather ones. Do you manage to wear them all?

LaGoulueRevenue · 06/08/2020 17:17

Hi all. Haven't posted in a few days as we finally had the hot weather here and I just don't cope with it! I literally go through vest tops and baggy shorts and soak them with a water sprayer so cool myself down. Also fed up about all the weight I've put on and don't seem to be losing so don't feel like wearing cute summer outfits- boo hoo! Come at me, Autumn/winter.
La Petite Française top and Asos jeans today.

To* cool myself down (pedant)

toastfiend · 06/08/2020 19:03

@Shannith good spot! I did get my hair cut (and had my highlights done again), it's been so nice to be rid of the brassy, orange tone my old colour had gone! 😂 Whereabouts is your riding holiday? I'm hopefully planning one with some friends for next year, thinking of Ireland and might fit in a bit of horse shopping at the same time (although I've not told DH that yet...) 😂

It's my birthday today so we've been out for lunch. Its been such a lovely day. Smile Started the day in my new dungarees, which DH bought for me, then changed into a dress from my best friend for lunch.

Dungarees - Lucy & Yak
Top - Boden

Dalmatian print dress - Joules
Boots - Boden
Belt - Lucy & Yak
Earrings - a local boutique and a gift from my parents

Justonedayatatime11 · 06/08/2020 19:13

Shannith I haven't worn any of them yet! Too damn hot. Riding this afternoon was horrific Confused

Shannith · 06/08/2020 20:10

@Miseryisabutterfly nice to see you back!

@toastfiend that dress is marvellous. Holiday is in Suffolk with lots of beach rides. I'd love to go to Ireland to ride... and horse shopping. I don't think I could be trusted, I managed to buy a horse at the festival from an Irishman so I'd be dangerous in actual Ireland.

@Justonedayatatime11 I admire your dedication to the purchase of excellent boots in inappropriate weather. I'm riding first thing tomorrow as it's going to be 35 degrees. Horse would melt, let alone me.

Justonedayatatime11 · 06/08/2020 20:19

toastfiend happy birthday, you look lovely!
Shannith good luck, it was 28 degrees today and I was dying. On a horse who REALLY didn't want to know and kept trying to launch me over his head Hmm

Miseryisabutterfly · 06/08/2020 20:42

Thank you @Shannith 😊

Happy birthday @toastfiend! Your dungarees are amazing and that dress is gorgeous on you.

Laughing at the horse chat. I am in Ireland but don’t know anything about horses. I did find a random field (I live in the city) with a few the other day on one of my walks though. It’s become an attraction for dd and ds now 😂

paradyning · 06/08/2020 22:44

Happy birthday @toastfiend. You do look amazing in the dress. I may have to purchase the belt.
May I ask which Boden boots you have there. I've had my eye on some for ages and think the V cut at the front is really flattering

OublietteBravo · 07/08/2020 09:08

Happy birthday for yesterday @toastfiend. Great dress!

I’m WFH in a different location today (the garden of my childhood home). It’s not going to be quite as warm here as it is back at home (25C rather than 34C), so I’m in trousers for the time being.

T-shirt: Oasis
Trousers: Warehouse
Sandals: Boden
