Love the new Hush shirt Soover

OublietteBravo · 21/01/2021 08:36

I have a confession. I cracked on the no spend thing and bought a pair of cropped trousers in the Hobbs sale.

Jumper: Boden
Cropped trousers: Hobbs
Boots: Celtic & Co

Love them @OublietteBravo! I have not been very good either. Am rubbish at this!

Thanks for the shirt love, it's one of the things I think Hush does very well. Also for the sympathy with DD. It's very tough, DH berates me because he's NHS management and I do appreciate the difficulty everyone is working under but she is really poorly and I am alone 24/7 trying to work out how to support her. The blood test still isn't back from the final test done 8 December. I can't get hold of our nurse who is probably out in the community vaccinating the elderly. Hey ho

These aren't the jeans I thought when I pulled them out of the drawer but I couldn't be bothered to dig around for the others. Last night I went through Stylebook to see items at or under £25 and found this jumper and a similar pair of jeans. But these were a bargain too. The trainers were more than the two together!

Had a dramatic day with Nutmeg the youngest cat yesterday and am now £470 lighter. She is now perfectly fine as she had constipation FFS but needed bloods, x ray, an enema ( she will never ever forgive me for that) and sedation. Bloody cats.

Jumper: hush sale last winter
Jeans: fate face: summer sale
Trainers: Stan smith

Adding to the hush top love @Sooverthemill. Also love today's jumper. So sorry about your DD, I hope the nurse is able to get back to you soon. Nutmeg is gorgeous!

@OublietteBravo your Hobbs trousers are fab! They look great.

I too have cracked (slightly inspired by @Sooverthemill's hush top Grin but also because my Boden coat has been returned so I feel justified in spending the refund...) I've ordered a Sophie dress and a green skirt from the hush sale. Both were things I've looked at before and good reductions (here I am justifying to myself!!)

Not today's photo but wearing this dress again from mint velvet. No belt today though.

Decided to add a new photo after all as I got a bit chilly so put a jumper on. Not sure if this works but I'm warmer now so that's the main thing!

@Sooverthemill Nutmeg is very sweet!

I got bored of wearing the same jeans & leggings so decided to buy a dress.

I like dogstooth print so bought this dress from River Island which arrived today.

It's a bit snug but I'm in the middle of dieting so I'll wear either my cream Lipsy cardi or my Chanel style Zara cardi with it for a while.
It will go with opaques & long boots or ankle boots; the material is not thick so it can be worn in Spring too.

Tehmina23 · 21/01/2021 13:29

Also I got 15% off with Blue Light Card discount at River Island

CaveMum · 21/01/2021 13:37

Poor Nutmeg, hope she’s on the mend @Sooverthemill

Had an important Zoom meeting this morning so had to go smart. Photo taken in the office toilets, for a bit of variety Wink

I refer to this as my “Motherland” dress as Julia wears it in, I think, the very first episode when she meets with her boss.

I adore your new trousers @OublietteBravo!

DS is back to nursery today, so hopefully things will calm down a bit now.

Sorry to hear about Nutmeg, @Sooverthemill. She's very lovely, but appreciate that's not at all what you needed to have to deal with. One of my dogs is great at incurring enormous vet bills for relatively minor complaints. I totted up how much she's cost us over the last 6 years and it's astronomical. Bloody animal.

My hush order arrived today so I'm looking forward to trying them on in a bit!

For now:

Boilersuit - Lucy & Yak
Belt - ASOS
Necklace - ASOS

Excuse my straggly, wet hair in the picture. I did a workout this morning and no time to dry it before launching into work.

@Tehmina23 I love that dress! Really nice

How can it be Friday? Am exhausted though so maybe that’s why. Nutmeg has thrown up again so I’m very grumpy!
Sweatshirt:Boden ordered Xmas arrived this week by which time I had forgotten it. Keeping it I think, will go with lots
Jeans: very old hush ( trying on all my jeans to try to cull and think am keeping these)
Trainers:air and grace
Tee under: hush

Although what to do about my poor nails? The gel is falling off - I tried to peel some off but it took my nail layers with it Confused

Sickoffamilydrama · 22/01/2021 11:21

Love everyone's casual Friday. Hope Nutmeg is okay @Sooverthemill our cat is sick regularly but she eats to quickly and has a sensitive stomach.

Not sure about this jumper with the culottes, fully tucked in the jumper doesn't work.
Jumper Ann Taylor
Belt Sainsbury's
Culottes Next

Thanks @Sickoffamilydrama! Haha, it was a Christmas present in 2019, bought because I was breastfeeding at the time and could do so in it, so your phone wasn't completely off the mark! 😂

My casual Friday isn't worth showing... I'm in Razorstorm leggings and an ancient hoodie of DH's... 😂

My hush purchases have arrived, though. I'm going to send the trousers back, I think, as they don't fit me brilliantly, but I'm in 2 minds about the jacket. I didn't love it initially, thought it was too oversized and DH said the collar looked odd (but he's a fashion philistine), but tried it on with a few outfits and now I think I like it... Would love your opinions! It was reduced but still £70 so I want to be sure I like it, although it feels like nice quality. Excuse the unbrushed hair and messy room!

toastfiend I think your outfit looks great and I would keep it all!

Sooverthemill · 22/01/2021 12:47

@toastfiend I like the jacket. Which trousers?

Sickoffamilydrama · 22/01/2021 13:13

@TardisThroughTime love your name. Great colour jumper.

Nails wise, I've just peeled them off when I had them years ago then had to wait for my nails to recover, have to say I never have them done now as found they made my nails to stiff and I caught them a couple of times and nearly ripped my while nail off, it permanently damaged my nail bed, they weren't even that long.

Sickoffamilydrama · 22/01/2021 13:19

I like the jacket @toastfiend but is it worth £70? If you are unsure and might not wear it as much? That could be me being tight but I buy cheap or eBay if I want to experiment with a look and then invest in expensive once I'm more comfortable with that look.
