I can see them, soover. It tells me mine haven't posted but I ignore it as it always seems to work after a delay. Love a vintage find.
I've ended up in Fatface dungarees that I haven't worn since earlier this year. With a Whistles Tshirt (all my recent Whistles tshirts have shrunk in the wash so are only good for wearing under things, tut tut)

Thanks @Moonfacebiggins I didn't kick any arses today but it was a good day funny how an outfit gives you confidence and helps with imposter syndrome.
Took my electric company car for it's first long spin now sat in services waiting for it to charge....course if I'd sorted out charging points at each site like I'd planned to before Covid hit then I could nearly be home!

I think it will be hot and sunny so I’m ready for it!

I’m wearing my new espadrilles today (I really need to stop buying new things). It is forecast to be hot. I’ve gone with silk trousers for the time being - but I’ve might end up changing when the sun comes around to this side of the house. I’ve already taken the jumper off - it’s not as chilly as it was first thing yesterday.

Very warm already here today. I'm off to get my hair cut and coloured for the first time in over 7 months later. Very excited, especially as my hair seems to have become immensely frizzy in the last few days!

Dungaree shorts - Lucy & Yak
T-shirt, has a sea-life print on it but you can't really see that under the dungarees. For me it's really reminiscent of "holiday" t-shirts I had in the 90s. Love it! - Lucy & Yak
Glittery boots - DMs

Have some lightning flash stud earrings on, too, from M&S, funnily!

I like your blouse @Sooverthemill and the espadrilles @OublietteBravo I would never have thought of Docs with that outfit @toastfiend it works brilliantly.

Been to our other site today so in smart business wear again.
I was planning to wear this mint coloured blouse with this but as you will see from the picture the proportions and neckline didn't work so went for black instead.

Love those floral trousers @OublietteBravo.

T-shirt & shorts now but was out last night for dinner with DH and wore my green dress. Really pleased with how it turned out.

Will catch up and report back on tea tomorrow but just had to say @Wildernesstips that dress is perfect. You are very talented.

Sooverthemill · 31/07/2020 08:11

The sunniest dress I own, it’s perfect for holidays but today will hopefully be in the garden as much as DD will allow ( she’s not great again)
Dress: monsoon
Sandals: ancient Birkenstock’s
Waiting fir yet another strapless bra to arrive. Why are they all so padded and uncomfortable? Are they only designed for an evening out?

@Wildernesstips lovely dress

toastfiend · 31/07/2020 09:23

@Wildernesstips your dress is fantastic, you're incredibly talented. Smile

Very chilled day here, just going to potter at home with DS, I think. Too hot to take the dogs out until late this evening, I think. I'll get the paddling pool out later and do a bit of gardening whilst DS naps, I expect, so very chilled clothes today. The focus is mainly on not overheating, rather than any kind of style! 😂

Rainbow striped crop top - H&M
Dungaree shorts - Lucy & Yak

My DM bought me a couple of lovely summery dresses yesterday for my birthday next week. I thought about putting one on today but seems pointless for a day of weeding and toddler wrangling!

@Wildernesstips the dress is amazing. You have such talent.

@Sooverthemill lovely dress

We are off for a picnic so practical clothes kind of clothes. Don’t think we will be too long!

Shorts and vest gap!

Shannith please tell me it was good! We're going in 2 weeks for my birthday

Spasandstripes · 31/07/2020 10:17

@Wildernesstips that dress is absolutely gorgeous. It suits you so well and I love the colour. Do you make dresses for customers? I’d genuinely love one like that.
@Sooverthemill that’s a pretty dress too and @toastfiend particularly like the colour of your dungarees. I’m currently still in sports kit post online hiit class bit I think I’ll be in an almost identical outfit to yours @Softpebbles when I can peel myself off the sofa. Gosh it’s hot!

Can anyone recommend some basic dark t shirts that look a bit nicer than just a boring t shirt if that makes sense? They need to be quite high neck, not a v-neck (which doesn’t suit me because of boobs!) and look effortlessly stylish for not too much money. Not a lot to ask!

Hello, can I join in? Thanks to this thread I am now the proud owner of a pair of Hush jeans! I'm so thrilled with them, have been looking for the HG of straight leg jeans for a while now. So thank you!

Beautiful dress @Wildernesstips - you’re very talented.

It’s already 31C here (forecast to reach 34C). So I’m in my floatiest dress and sandals (actually my second outfit of the day - I exercised first thing rather than waiting for this evening - but I’m sure you have no desire to see me in my not-even-remotely-stylish exercise kit Grin). Fortunately I only have to work until 15:00 today, so I should be able to escape from my office before the sun hits it.

Dress: Warehouse
Sandals: Boden

Spasandstripes · 31/07/2020 15:25

Are those jeans recent @LaGoulueRevenue?

Another pretty dress @OublietteBravo. It’s definitely the day for it. Dh and I unexpectedly went out for lunch so I put a super comfy, extra flowy and very old dress on. I couldn’t find the wide belt I normally wear with it but in the heat, I wasn’t too bothered.
