It's freezing here so I've added my sunrise navy jumper to this. Total chaos here, plumber, builder, painter all here at once. No water this morning at 5 minutes notice! And DD had blood test ( which was fine) and I was up for 2 hours in the night with her as she was throwing up. All fun.

@Sickoffamilydrama my favourite cannula story is when a very junior a&e doc poo poo'd my telling him I always faint when I have a cannula inserted and he said it wasn't possible as I was lying down. Later, when I came round the nurse said 'that told him'. I have major problems now anyway after chemo as my veins are very scarred. Luckily rarely have to do anything blood wise these days!

Whoops @Sooverthemill that probably was a valuable lesson! I used to look after someone similar who always fainted it was kind of amazing to watch he had nice big fat veins & I only had to start getting the bits to take blood out & his veins would literally visibly disappear. It does make sense in an evolutionary sense his body couldn't tell if it was a tiger attacking him or a nice nurse trying to take his blood, very inconvenient though!

Still very warm here so jumpsuit from Sainsbury's

Love the jumpsuit @Sickoffamilydrama.

I’m trying to work through my collection of jeans and decide whether or not I still like them all. These ones are a bit big around the waist really. But definitely a useful colour.

Silk shirt: Boden
Belt: Mint Velvet
Jeans: Hush
Shoes: Clark’s

I'm confused because the BBC weatherwoman tells me it was 25 yesterday and yet I was in rain, wind and wore my jumper all day! Should I believe the 20 degree forecast for today? Hmm?
DD hates this tee as she thinks it's judgemental against her!
Tee: FWP by Rae
Jeans: hush
Jumper: hush
Sandals: M&S

Kitchen in progress!

Kitchen looks at an exciting stage!!!
I'm still in bed
Thinking jeans and shirt (being inspired by @oubliettebravo)
Going to the park for a picnic this lunchtime 😂
Then working later

Sickoffamilydrama · 17/09/2020 15:08

Oh those draws look sturdy and useful @OublietteBravo.

Wasn't sure about this outfit but it works much better without the belt it's probably about 25 here but in the wind/shade feels colder.
T shirt Vegan outfitters
Skirt Monki
Shoes Heavenly feet

Black harems, Hush (SO comfortable).
Black and colourful print T-shirt, Marimekko for Uniqlo (from the kids' section).
Long-sleeved Gap top in bright yellow underneath, because although it's warm outside it's a bit nippy indoors.
Bare feet, although will add socks soon for reasons above.
Dreadful bird's nest hair, which is getting cut tomorrow.

It's sort of half kids' TV presenter, half bag lady.

toastfiend · 17/09/2020 15:42

Not a very inspiring outfit from me today!

T-shirt - Lucy & Yak
Jeans - Topshop

itssquidstella · 18/09/2020 07:19

@Sooverthemill the kitchen is coming together, how exciting!

I like your T-shirt, @toastfiend.

It's cooler here today; I'm wearing Cos trousers (slightly cropped on me though I'm not sure if they're meant to be) and a top from & Other Stories.

I’ll be wearing a burgundy floral knee length dress from Laradoute with rose gold sandals.

OublietteBravo · 18/09/2020 07:48

I’m trying to make the most of my summer wardrobe before the rain arrives next week.

Jumper: Hobbs
Trousers: Boden
Trainers: Jigsaw

Morning Ladies

The kitchen looks like it is coming along bucket @Sooverthemill. The floor looks great.

Haven’t posted for a while as all been a bit mehhh.

Today T-shirt - vegan outfitters
Jeans - river island
New new balance for winter!

I sent my white Veja back as they would just end up filthy for me at this time of year. Might get some next year though. They were a nice fit and I liked the overall look. Figured I may as well wear my Stan Smiths into the ground.

@Softpebbles love the trainers. Probably sensible veja decision.
My house is fast becoming a tip, it's hard keeping everything tidy when 2 rooms are out of action and my bedroom now is just a dumping ground. I'm finding that surprisingly stressful. Hoping for results of DDs blood test today. I'm struggling too with broken nights.

Kitchen is sooo exciting and I am surely annoying the fitter as I keep popping in to see it every time I pass by. Doors going on units today and worktops could be Monday.
I have an eye test tomorrow which was postponed from March due to Covid and although I'm not keen the intel coming out suggests that I'd better do it now or risk it not being for months and I've booked our sitter to sit in garden with our baby monitor so she can intervene in an emergency and DH and I will have a walk along the seafront after as I haven't seen the sea since February!

Lovely outfits everyone, @OublietteBravo
It's cooler today and DH abandoned his early swim as the sea was so rough.

Shirt: gap
Jeans: hush ( I love these)
Sandals: air and Grace I like your trainer collection!

Sooverthemill · 18/09/2020 08:38

How did that happen! That last half sentence was for @OublietteBravo

OublietteBravo · 18/09/2020 08:43

I like my trainer collection too @Sooverthemill (DH thinks I have too many).

ememem84 · 18/09/2020 15:31

Red plaid shirt. Tommy Hilfiger.
Jeans Topshop jamie skinnies. (With huge blobs of pink paint on them) how I didn’t notice this when I put them on I don’t know.

Shannith · 18/09/2020 15:36

@Sooverthemill kitchen sounds and looks so exciting and hopefully you'll get some good news with DD's blood tests.

@itssquidstella love your outfit. Very chic.

This morning I was in riding gear, photo because I de-minged my boots while I was cleaning tack.

Changed for the school run, though I'll wear my joules converse thingys rather than flip flops.

Boots and jods same old. Top was once a work top from Reiss which got downgraded to a decorating top and had been downgraded again to a yard top. It was really nice in its day!

Dress, basically free in my big charity shop windfall. Was M&Co brand new. I've got a thin gap belt on and have hoicked the dress up a bit as it just sort of hangs otherwise. It's super comfy and it's pretty hot here, at least it was when I was riding because someone was putting jumps up and stupid horse decided she wanted a go. I didn't. Much sweating ensued as I was foolishly riding without stirrups.

Sorry I've been missing in action for ages! Just got back from a weeks holiday. It's so warm here today, absolutely beautiful.
Today I'm wearing Monki trousers and a vest top from Matalan. Everyone looking fab as usual.

Not been on for a while - COVID-blues! However, getting back in the game. Have managed to move on a tiny bit from leggings to onesies, lol. Onesie from the ASOS sale, and flats from Lucy Choi. On a date-ish thing later - need to have a think about what to wear for that!
