@TheScurrilousFunge they've always been on the large size but as he's aged they have spread.
If he walks on hard surfaces he needs to wear special boots but we try to keep to grass or sand.
Were this thread called "What Is Your Dog Wearing Today" Sam would post this

I really like your leggings @Softpebbles

Welcome @MoiCnoi Fab jumper, that looks like a really nice shade of yellow.

No snow here, just a bit cold and damp. I agree @Ellapaella, I find I feel much better if I make a bit of effort with clothes and make up even though most days I only get out of the house for a walk so whatever I'm wearing is covered by a big coat!

Today - leather skirt, Oasis; top, also Oasis, cardigan, &OtherStories; tights, not sure. They're green, which I'm also not sure about, but I've hardly ever worn them so thought I'd give them a try. Plus glitter eyeliner - pulled out all the stops today Grin

Happy weekend all

Love that outfit @Ellapaella and I think you are right. I'm back at work (from home) so need to be more motivated to ditch my leggings and dog walking gear in case of last minute zoom calls. Right now my report card would be D for effort!

@OublietteBravo love that Boden jumper but I always like your outfits. But that just seems such a cheerful colour in particular.

@Softpebbles and @Sooverthemill both your outfits look so cosy and Warm.

Outfit today is just jeans and a jumper with a cami underneath and fluffy socks but at least i feel like I've made an effort post dog walk!

P.s @Sooverthemill and @Ellapaella thanks for the advice re Sézane. I'm still tempted by the gaspard but will hold off a while.

I went for a walk & have tried to stick to below 1550 calories.

I agree with @Ellapaella I never leave the house even pre Covid and always make an effort to dress normally except in Sundays or sick days. Makes me feel so much better

WaltzingBetty · 16/01/2021 19:24

I have nothing to contribute except to say I really enjoy lurking on this thread. And I just spent a chunk of money on Sosander dresses and @MoiCnoi's lovely yellow jigsaw jumper.

I LOVE @toastfiend's style but having now sent back 2 pairs of L&Y dungas which make me look enormous. May have to accept that my massive bosoms are a barrier to the quirky/cool vibe I'd like to channel!

Sickoffamilydrama · 16/01/2021 20:11

No fashion prize for me today! Starting to organise the house ready for our move hopefully we make the stamp duty holiday & give for a walk with the kids.

@Tehmina23 don't be down on yourself- honestly you look lovely.

Thanks @Ellapaella

TheScurrilousFunge · 16/01/2021 21:30

@jilliwilliwoo Oh, bless him. He's a beautiful old man! And if horses wear shoes, I don't see why he shouldn't either 🥰

Sooverthemill · 17/01/2021 09:37

@jilliwilliwoo where did you get the dog shoes? Percy cuts his paws regularly and we spend a fortune on vets bills for sutures and also removal of grass seeds. Wonder if they might help?

@Tehmina23 you are not fat. Your body is awesome think of what it does for you every day.

@Ellapaella did I say how much I love your toast jumper up thread? Lovely colour

Life is tricky at the moment, DD is so unwell. I can't wait for bloody Covid to bugger off so she could see the GP. I do feel abandoned by the NHS. I also appreciate the pressures they are under,

So, comfy today so I can pretend I'm still in bed. Apologies for photo, it's ridiculously sunny and my bedroom window faces due east
Jumper: hush
Coated Leggings: Mint Velvet ( I'm really unsure if I like these, I may sell)
Boots: Ugg's
Vest: M&S

Welcome @MoiCnoi - I love the yellow jumper.

I know what you mean about getting properly dressed @Ellapaella. It’s makes such a difference to my mindset during this seemingly endless period of WFH.

I’m sorry to hear that you’re DD isn’t getting the support that she needs at the moment @Sooverthemill. Did the blood tests ever get sorted out?

I’ve defaulted back to my typical jeans and a jumper outfit. Although the plan is to be back to something more officey tomorrow.

Jumper: Warehouse
Jeans: Boden
Boots: Ecco

Sooverthemill · 17/01/2021 12:42

@OublietteBravo she had the blood test in December and still waiting for the results. It's a specialist test to check a blood clotting disorder. I assume they are doing it all via pony and trap. It wasnt back this week

MoiCnoi · 17/01/2021 13:20

Pretty top today because there's a birthday in the family, much zoom action.

@Tehmina23 another vote for 'you are not fat'
@Sooverthemill so worrying for you. Wanting answers is a horrible time
@OublietteBravo I will also be trying to raise my WFH dressing game this week...

Hello all. Forgot to post yesterday but you didn’t miss much! It was a horrible rainy, sleety day so it was jeans and cosy jumper territory!

Today is lovely and sunny, though chilly, so I feel more like putting some effort in!

Dress - FatFace
Jumper - Les 100 Ciels
Tights - Snag Tights

I may also have splurged on some Lisa Eldridge lipsticks this morning Blush I’d stopped making the effort of wearing any and what little I had has been hanging round for years! The S&B boards are not good for my bank balance 😂

jilliwilliwoo · 17/01/2021 16:51

@Sooverthemill I can't remember where (on internet) I bought the boots but they're very good as they stay on!

Everyone is looking so great so I've pulled myself together and dressed pretending that someone other than MrJilliwilliwoo and the hounds will see me

Jumper - John Lewis
Coated jeans - Next
Scarf - Quinton & Chadwick

Lazy Sunday here today. DC have been baking 😋

I'm wearing Mint velvet leggings and jumper dress from phase 8.

@MoiCnoi your top is very pretty.

@jilliwilliwoo I think I've got those jeans and I struggle with what to wear with them. That jumper looks a really good length.

@Sooverthemill sorry to hear DD isn't well. I hope you get the blood test back soon.

Sickoffamilydrama · 17/01/2021 19:45

@Tehmina23 you aren't fat bit even if you were which you aren't you still have every right to enjoy fashion and feel good in the clothes you wear, which is I think partially what this thread celebrates.

That's rubbish @Sooverthemill something's take longer but really unless it's a special treat that takes them 4 weeks to run or something 🤷‍♀️ like your blue jumper & your claret one @OublietteBravo

Nice shape jumper @cavemum

Pretty top @MoiCnoi

That dress looks lovely and warm @PalacePaper

@jilliwilliwoo we are colour matching with our jumpers today.

I think that you could probably mistake me for having joined the army in this outfit today but I still like it.

There is something very satisfying about wearing a swishy skirt (I thought I’d better wear it today before we hit yet more rainy days).

Jumper: M&S
Skirt: White Stuff
Boots: Doc Martens

After many really tough days and very very Kate nights ( into the early hours) I got 7 hours sleep last night so feel awesome! Woke at 8.15 an unheard of late wake up for me. And my hush jeans arrived as I was doing yoga and that has made me happy. I love this shape, I love all my jeans but these ones feel so different.

Tee: hush
Jeans: hush Arlette barrel ( same as my green ones)
Trainers: air and grace
Sweatshirt: FWP by Rae ( new but with loyalty discount, ) nice and boxy and is says APERO which is slang for aperitif

That's a lovely skirt @OublietteBravo - I always find the day goes better when I wear a swishy skirt Smile

I really like that shape of jeans on you @Sooverthemill So pleased you got a good nights sleep, makes such a difference to the day.

Today I'm wearing a skirt from hush and a merino/cashmere jumper which I bought at a flower show a few years ago. The blue skirt is from finery. I never wear it because it's a bit too long so I'm going to shorten it - popped it on to check the length and I actually quite like it with the jumper but would never have thought to wear them together (ignore the white tacking thread round the bottom of the skirt!)

Although not as bad as you @Sooverthemill I too have been struggling with lack of sleep and had a good amount. I love that shape Jean on you as well, they look short but maybe you buy the petite/short version. I might get myself some at some point.

Love a swishy skirt @OublietteBravo

Everytime I wear this I think I must wear it more, especially as I think it looks a lot more expensive than it was.

Jumpsuit Tesco
Bodysuit underneath & other stories
Boots Ecco

Ignore the boxes behind me we are starting to gradually pack things up for our house move, even though we don't have dates yet is rather do it in bite size chunks.

Oh another nice swishy skirt @PalacePaper

Sooverthemill · 18/01/2021 11:23

@Sickoffamilydrama just 2 sizes left but I refreshed the hush website very single day for 2 weeks and got mine
