What are you wearing today? Summer 2020 - where did the sunshine go?!

[Ellapaella]

Hello everyone
Last thread here https://www.mumsnet.com/Talk/styleandbeauty/3942813-what-are-you-wearing-today-lock-down-wardrobes

I would love to join in if that’s okay?
I feel like I’ve either been pregnant or breastfeeding for forever and feel so frumpy and as though I’ve lost my identity.
I’ve just got on black mom jeans (Sainsbury’s), black nursing vest top, leopard print belt and black hi top converse today.

Everyone looking lovely today 😍
@Softpebbles fabulous dress - you look great.
Today's outfit is Sezane dress, denim jacket from Next and DP sandals.

Welcome @MrsS92 - we are a friendly bunch here.

Ob and welcome @coffeeandcardigans - loving the trousers.

Off to London tomorrow for afternoon tea at the Ritz. If it wasn't such a trek I'd dress up more, but as it is we'll spend 2 and a bit hours on the train there and the same back so I also want to be comfortable! Are any of these suitable? Will pair with sparkly nude flat sandals and a tan or black bag.

@Justonedayatatime11 all three are lovely but I particularly like number 1 & 3
Have a great day.

Help! I've just woken up and it's chucking it down and thundering! What on earth do I wear now? And what do I put my 6 year old in that's going to be appropriate?

@Justonedayatatime11 my vote would be no 3 as you always look stunning in red. The London forecast isn’t that bad so I would still go for this wear trainers pop sandals in bag for inside Th ritz. Dress him in clean and comfortable clothes! That’s enough. Enjoy!

@coffeeandcardigans love the trousers! @MrsS92 welcome!

It rained in the night but still humid though overcast. No idea.
Had epic eBay fail with pair of vintage Levi 501s. Although w28 ( my usual vintage size) I can’t get them over my hips! No returns so bugger. Anyone a size 6 and want them?
Tank: all saints
Shorts: Biden
Sandals:air and grace

@Sooverthemill sounds like they've shrunk - a 28 waist is definitely a 10-12 in Levi's, I'd be contacting the seller and asking for a return. I hate it when that happens!

@Justonedayatatime11 yeah just still weather the dress but take spare shoes and a huge umbrella! Have a lovely time

Wear the dress not weather

@Justonedayatatime11 they're all lovely, but I agree that number 3 will really suit you. It's not raining here in north London currently but it's a lot cooler than it has been. Maybe bring a jacket?

I'm going swimming at the Lido for the first time in months! Covid rules means you have to arrive ready to swim, so here's my outfit (new costume) 😆

@Ellapaella

Wear the dress not weather

That sounds like a fashionista's advice 😁

"Wear the dress, not the weather."

@Ellapaella these are vintage so the waist measurements aren't the same ( in modern 501s I'm a 26j the advice is to always size up 2 inches in vintage Levi’s which I have done successfully before but these I reckon are really a 26 so equate to a modern 24! Which I am not and have never been. It's annoying but not the end of the world. The label is clear on the photos and I don't see how the could shrink that much!

@itssquidstella I agree!How lovely to be able to go to the Lido again. I so miss swimming. Our nearest pool is just to far for me to get there and back in under 2 hours and the sea is too cold for me ( and too bloody busy on the beach). When I lived in Cambridge I swam at the lido every day the whole season....

Lazy day today. Snake/animal print joggers and a slouchy v neck grey top, plus Velcro baby’s breakfast she flicked on me !
I had on white converse earlier when I nipped out.

Hello. I’m a bit late posting today. It’s finally cooler. Which is so much better for working.

Jumper: Jigsaw
Jeans: Boden

Love the stripey swimming costume @itssquidstella

Another WFH day for me in Monki skirt and Vero Moda white t..

So glad it is Friday at last :)

Been for a long dog walk with DS and a friend today, so I'm dressed for practicality over style!

So much cooler today, although still humid. I'm much, much happier.

Leggings - Nike
Fleece - Lucy & Yak
Wooly socks because my feet got wet out walking - parents brought them back from Peru.

Forgot how much I like Nike running tights. Squat proof, high-waisted, comfy. Trashed my last pairs riding in them all the time, so it's nice to have a pair again, my others from different brands don't seem to compare.

Might actually venture out for a run later. I have arthritis in my knees (which was a bit of a blow when diagnosed last year in my mid-20s)so don't get out as much as I'd like, but I do enjoy it and today seems like a good day to get out and about again now it's cooled off.

Hope everyone has a lovely day.

@Softpebbles that dress from yesterday was beautiful.

@coffeeandcardigans welcome and fab yellow trousers.

@Justonedayatatime11 oh yes, you said you were going too. Hope you have a marvellous time. All 3 dresses are ideal, maybe number 3 is my favourite.

@toastfiend love the top. I should also go for a run (I've got arthritis too, but I've got 20 years on you). I promised I would when it cooled down and it has....maybe later.

I'm basically wearing clothes I can go and get the bins in with without scaring people.

Top - charity George
Joggers - Tu
Flip flop - havineras

Clothes

Looking good all. I wanted to be comfy but look good for video calls as well so this jumpsuit it my go to outfit for comfy but smart causal.

Jumpsuit Ted Baker
Sandals Heavenly feet

Shannith it was spectacular! And DH surprised me by telling me we're going to stay for our wedding anniversary in December . Ended up in a floral tea dress and Chelsea boots with DD in a jumpsuit and silver ballet flats! Hope everyone has a lovely weekend

@Sooverthemill it was great! It rained whilst I was swimming; I love swimming in the rain 😊
