@toastfiend and @Sickoffamilydrama living both your rolled up jeans and boots. I added boots when I took the do out but forgot to take a picture.

Indeed liking all the jeans today. Been on and off sunny so I've been in and out off shorts/jeans/hoodie depending on the position of the sun in the garden.

Jeans - Topshop via charity
Top - ancient Oliver Bonas. Used to be my absolute favourite (I had it in 4 colours) but it's pretty ripped at the bottom so - tucked!)
Belt - banana republic
Flip flops- havineras

Nothing new here, it’s going to be warm! Dreadful day and night with DD so am hoping she sleeps in and I can sit in garden with my book. One of the dogs rolled in cow poo so that’s another job for today!

Top: hush ( fast turning into a favourite)
Shorts: MIH
Sandals: LK Bennett

Going to be warm today but not doing much so going to keep it casual

It’s supposed to be warm today, but there is still a chilly breeze. Plus my jumper helpfully hides the bruising from having a blood sample taken on Friday.

Jumper: Hush
T-shirt: Primark
Trousers: Boden

Oof @oubliettebravo that's a whopper

Shannith · 13/09/2020 17:03

Oh @obliettebravo I'm like that with blood tests. Apparently I have crap moving (who knew that was a thing) veins.

Love the yellow jeans.

I have actually worn 5 different outfits today. 1. Yoga 2. Blackberry picking with dog and DD 3. Bikini in the garden (last gasp of summer) 4. Riding gear and 5 now old shorts and a vest in the garden. None worthy of a photo though. I'm so impressed by you all how get dressed in nice clothes every day!

OublietteBravo · 13/09/2020 19:28

I’m normally fine with blood tests. I’ve had blood taken hundreds of times previously and never had a bruise before. This time it was taken by a nurse for the ONS Covid study. I don’t think phlebotomy is her strong point.

Sooverthemill · 14/09/2020 08:08

Realised I’ve hardly worn any of my drshorts

Rollerbird · 14/09/2020 08:17

I'm back from the gym (cold start)
It's looking fab weather wise so going to be getting out my little shorts and a vest top for today.
Trying to get through to the dentist at the moment because eating almonds last night I heard a cracking and my back tooth is snapped in two 😢

Sooverthemill · 14/09/2020 08:29

iPhone fail!
Realised I've hardly worn any dresses which is odd as usually I wear them tons. It's been an odd summer. Hoping DD improves today as she's had terrible nights and I'm comatose from sleeplessness. Oh well
Enjoy the Indian summer
Dres: Boden
Sandals: Birkenstock

I hope your DD improves today too @Sooverthemill Flowers

I’m also wearing a dress. I added a jumper because it isn’t warm yet and I’ve just been out to drop DS at school (it’s nice to have a walk before work).

Jumper: Jigsaw
Dress: Warehouse
Trainers: Boden

Spent the weekend at my parents' again, and DH is home on Wednesday, which I'm looking forward to. Smile

Saturday's outfit:

Dungarees - Lucy & Yak
Top - H&M

Nothing to report for Sunday as I spent it in leggings and an old t-shirt, playing in the garden with DS.

Today's outfit as it's meant to be hot (which I'm grumpy about but at least I get to wear these dunga shorts one more time before I pack them away for the year!)

Dungarees, top, and belt - Lucy & Yak
Boots - DMs

I think you could wear those shorts in winter with tights and a jumper underneath @toastfiend

Have a day off today so will sit in the garden and read in the peace loving the kids being back at school.

T shirt Oasis
Belt Sainsbury's
Skirt M&S
Sandals Heavenly feet

@oubliettebravo
LOVE 😍 your outfit!!!

itssquidstella · 15/09/2020 07:32

For some reason the app won't load anyone's photos, so I can't see what everyone's been wearing this weekend 😤

It's going to be hot again today so I'm wearing as summery a dress as I can get away with for work. It's from Mango.

It’s meant to be the last good day so am hoping I get garden and book time. DD has to have blood test today though which will be fun ( her veins roll, they are tiny and people with ME have low blood volume!) my annual post chemo one is due tomorrow. Hoping slightly strange ruler finishes floor today ( yesterday’s excuse for being late : ‘ had to wait in for the pigs’)

Enjoy the sun if you can. I feel I need to store it up until spring now
Top:Baukjen
Shorts:whistles ( top button undone!)
Sandals:air and grace

I’m expecting it to warm up again, but once again I’m starting off in an extra layer. (DD has gone to sixth form college in hot pants today. I’m not sure that’s going to go down well).

Jumper: Boden
T-shirt: Primark
Skirt: Boden
Trainers: Jigsaw (I love these so much that I’m just starting to break in my second pair)

Photos have loaded. That's quite a bruise, @OublietteBravo! Hope it isn't too sore.

toastfiend · 15/09/2020 12:38

Hope your arm isn't too sore @OublietteBravo, that's certainly an impressive bruise. I have "bouncy" veins apparently. My pregnancy with DS was quite complicated and I remember on one occasion in hospital it took over 11 attempts to take blood, including from the backs my hands, before they eventually managed to get some from my wrist. I'm generally very good with needles, but something about the wrist one was uniquely horrid, I think perhaps because it was over the bone.

@Sickoffamilydrama I think you're right. Tights, jumper and DMs might mean I get a bit more wear out of them, which would be l ok vely. They're my favourites and I'd be sad to pack them away for the winter.

Very casual today, everything from Lucy & Yak. Worn with Vanessa Wu trainers when I dropped DS at nursery. Feeling a bit run down (just tiredness not virus!) and work is busy atm. DH is home tomorrow, though. Really excited. Smile

Ouch @OublietteBravo I used be quite good at taking blood & putting cannula's it is a skill that takes nerves of steel to start with stabbing someone with a sharp implement knowing your aiming for something only mm big that can move! Doesn't make it less painful for you though Wink

My DH has pointed out that I should be very careful when bending over in this dress...I'm still going to wear it though as I love it.

Dress M&S
Cardigan haven't got a clue

Fell off the thread again.

Tomorrow’s outfit chosen to include pewter brogues.

Navy and green check shirt - esprit I think
Navy slim leg trousers - M&S (I’ll wear with the legs turned up a bit and might get this done permenantly)
Brogues

It’s now forecast to be hot for one more day. Still autumnal enough to be chilly first thing though.

Jumper: Jigsaw
T-shirt: ? (from TK Maxx)
Trousers: Boden
