I never keep or buy anything now unless I get a rush of love? Adrenaline? You know what I mean!

@Sickoffamilydrama I am a complete whovian! I ordered two slogan t shirts yesterday and can’t wait for them to arrive.

I think I’m going to pretend my nails don’t exist Smile

@toastfiend I really like that Hush jacket. Very similar to one I have from Mint Velvet via stitchfix. It wasn't something I would have looked at but wear it with my mint velvet leather look leggings and skinny jeans and like the contrast with skinny and oversized. Really like the collar on your one. But do you love it?

@sooverthemill. Hope Nutmeg is better. Our cat likes to leave little sick presents under our bed. . Always nice to discover. Love your Boden jumper and Hush jeans.

@TardisThroughTime love your casual outfit.

@Sickoffamilydrama I like your outfit. Have you tried maybe a thinner knit so that you can do the loose tuck ? I think it's difficult with thicker knits sometimes as it adds bulk.

@OublietteBravo love your wfh dress down outfit. Makes me feel lazy!

@Ellapaella I started to read the book. It says you need to record outfits for 2 weeks so going to start on 1st Feb and wear outfits as if I was living my normal wfh but not lockdown life! The concept seems sound so watch this space!

Me today. Leggings and T-shirt. No effort at all. But not going outside so.... leggings Mint Velvet. T shirt - Hush.

@Sooverthemill that's a fab sweatshirt. Hope Nutmeg's ok.

@toastfiend I think the jacket looks really good, and it looks to me like it suits your style. But only keep it if you love it.

@Sickoffamilydrama the culottes look great! And @QueenPawPaws I really like your patterned trousers.

Started the day in M&S workout gear, and sweaty Betty hoodie. Then got dressed and wore M&S dress and John Lewis belt.

Had a little look on the hush website earlier and two jumpers I've had my eye on were back in stock and at very good reductions. They must have been returns I think. I took it as a sign and have ordered them, so I now have two hush parcels on the way Smile

Thanks @PalacePaper, they definitely look better in summer with flat sandals and a vest top! I have worn and worn them plus no ironing needed Grin
Just seen they have new colours

Seems very warm to me though the thermometer says 3degrees outside! I got a full nights sleep in bed before midnight and up at 8. I told DD I simply couldn't do anything more last night or I would drop dead! I hate doing that but I just needed sleep.

In case anyone is interested Boden have 30 off NEW IN only code 6HHKQN3BK. My sweatshirts are in that offer as are some barrel jeans and some lovely active wear

Tee: hush
Jeans: hush

I'm biting the bullet and joining the thread after lurking for a long time!
You all always look so stylish and have spurred me on to stop wearing my onesie round the house.
Today I'm off on bunny errands (I have 2 hkuse bunnies)- stocking up their hay from the farm shop and replacing a phone charger one of them has destroyed.
Comfy warm clothes for me: Topshop khaki paperbag trousers and a really cosy jumper from a local boutique. I'm going to put on a cream beanie, long black coat and cherry red docs when I go out.
(Excuse the messy room, bunnies have been playing on the bed)

Welcome aboard @pangolina!

OublietteBravo · 23/01/2021 11:37

Welcome @pangolina. I thoroughly recommend this thread for inspiring you to wear more than just loungewear.

Glad to hear you got some sleep @Sooverthemill - I’m barely coherent when I’m sleep deprived.

I really like the jacket @toastfiend. But as everyone on here keeps telling me if you’re unsure, then send it back

I’m back to jeans and a jumper - it really is my weekend default. The jumper is new (I’m really not very good at this no spend malarkey) - but I though £33 for cashmere was a pretty good deal. I had a roll neck jumper this colour as a student which I absolutely adored and wore until it fell apart. So I’m quite excited to have found this particular jumper.

Jumper: M&S
Jeans: Boden
Boots: Doc Martens

Slim jeans from Next (feel like skinnies though at present!!)
Cardi from River Island

Sickoffamilydrama · 23/01/2021 13:24

That's a beautiful colour jumper @OublietteBravo

I think I might have to take my own advice as unsure I'll use these jeans particularly as they aren't that flattering on my stomach, even though they are cheap it's wasteful spending on something that just sits there.

Coated jeans are Next
Body Suit & other stories
Jeans Boden
Belt Sainsbury's

Welcome @pangolina you are making me want a cream/white jumper.

Love your pink sweatshirt @Sooverthemill and burgundy cardi @CaveMum

Might have to go see if that belt is in the sales @PalacePaper

@OublietteBravo 😂. No one is getting out enough are they?

It's very frosty here today. Decided to wear my new dungarees with a fancier top as it's Sunday ( did everyone else have 'Sunday best' as a kid?)

Have a good Sunday everyone. I hope this next week is sunny and nicer for us all.
Blouse: Boden old
Dungarees: fatface

Ooh and I bought two pairs of posh sandals in Russell and Bromley's sale last night ( will,keep,one) for DD1s wedding which is now booked. I think she's mad booking anything for July but she's very keen.

CaveMum · 24/01/2021 12:15

Chilly here today but no snow. We had a flurry yesterday afternoon which settled for about an hour before thawing.

We’ve had a rough week of homeschool with far too much shouting and tantrums from all concerned, so at DDs request I am making cinnamon buns - hoping they turn out ok!

Today I’m back in a trusty, warm combo

Dress - Fat Face
Jumper - Tu

CaveMum · 24/01/2021 12:15

Damn it, forgot to attach the picture again!

Love that blouse @Sooverthemill

We have lots of snow here and set for more later so have been out for a walk, snowball fight and made a giant ⛄ so dressed for warmth

@CaveMum they look delicious!

Lots of snow here too, so I wore leggings and a hoodie dress and wellies. And a waterproof down coat I got from mountain warehouse last winter, but it was never really cold enough to wear it. Came into its own today, I was cosy and dry Smile

OublietteBravo · 25/01/2021 09:18

It’s a cold, crisp morning with rather icy lying snow. Definitely a warm clothes day.

Jumper dress: Jigsaw
Leggings: Primark
Boots: Celtic & Co

Sooverthemill · 25/01/2021 09:25

We haven’t had snow much to DHs sadness. Frosty though.
@Sickoffamilydrama I missed your new trousers, I think they aren’t as flattering as the denim pair you enjoy wearing so send them back. IMO

Dug put these jeans which I used to live but mow seem a bit low rise ( I think they are ‘mid rise’ and I keep hoiking them up. Interesting how you get used to other styles. I love the dark colour and the big cuff though. Will try them today and see. Am really shopping my wardrobe today!

Jersey shirt: old hush (2019)
Jeans: banana republic 2014?
Shoes: Boden 2019
Added a belt to see if it stops me yanking them up! Banana republic 2008

Chuffing cold here! Went for a run at 6.15am and it was -5!

Gone back to the Sugarhill jumper dress today, it is so warm!

@CaveMum, they look amazing! I think I might have to have a go at making cinammon buns now!

Thanks so much for all the blazer opinions. I do really like it but have tried it on again and I feel like it's a bit too oversized. I'm going to send the 12 back, but the size 10 came back in stock the other day, so I've ordered that to try, in the hope that it's a better fit, as I love the collar detail on it. I also treated myself to a pair of Dune boots in the sale. They're my extra money purchase. I decided the Fairfax & Favor Amiras, though lovely, are just too expensive to justify for a pair of suede boots when I'm not great for shoe care and I know they'll ultimately get ruined/I'll be too worried to wear them. The Dune ones were almost a quarter of the price so I know I'll enjoy them without worrying.

A French Connection sale purchase shirt arrived the other day. It looked like a really vibrant pink colour on the website, but is much more muted in the flesh. I like the shape, though, and it's quite versatile so I think I might keep it, but opinions always welcome!

Today:
Dungarees - Lucy & Yak
Jumper - ASOS
Boots - DMs
Belt - ASOS

No outfits for me over the weekend. We had snow so I spent most of the time in scruffy leggings and hundreds of layers so I could go out to play and make snowmen with DS. Lots of fun, just what was needed.
