@toastfiend it looks fab!!

Annasgirl · 07/12/2020 17:49

Oh @toastfiend that is so lovely. I used to do that with my mum, the annual trip up to visit my sisters and I (we live in Dublin, she lived in the West of Ireland) to shop and savour the atmosphere. DM died 5 years ago in November. Treasure all these wonderful days.

Your jumper is gorgeous

Great coat @toastfiend & @Annasgirl do your ankles not get cold though or is it just me?

Love the jumpsuit @Sooverthemill and the coulottes @OublietteBravo you are making me want some.
To answer the question @Ellapaella I make not with my hands hearses & limousines (not the party variety) which probably means my cover is blown but doubt anyone who actually knew me wouldn't recognize my dress sense anyway 🤫

Any ideas how to make there's boots more comfortable my knees and get were screaming wearing them they feel really hard... Think I need to admit defeat they were any eBay buy. But they look so cute with dresses 😂

Belt Sainsbury's

Blimmin' freezing here today too! DH and I headed into town for a bit of Xmas shopping, a rare bit of grown up time for us! We're in tier 3 though, so no cafes to sit in which was a bit depressing, but we blitzed the stocking fillers so a productive day!

Still loving the sequins @Talisin, you've inspired me to look for a sequin skirt so we'll see what I'll end up with!

I've got a short ish A line pleather skirt which I wear with biker boots and I'd like to find something that works like that - who knows?!
Any inspiration welcome Smile

I quite like this outfit, maybe something like that.

This is a terrible thread! I just dropped £78 after seeing the lovely Christmas jumper from The Sparks Company up above 😆
Looking the inspiration here...

Loving the inspiration*

Welcome to the thread @MsCrapola.

Something like this @Dauphinois?

Love the boots @Sickoffamilydrama (I’m tempted to buy another pair from Ecco).

@Tehmina23 you also have great boots.

Sounds like a lovely thing to do @toastfiend - I’m amazed you were able to try things on. If you work out the secret of actually clearing out your wardrobe then please let me know!

I’m in culottes again today (although these seem more like wide leg trousers).

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

Exercise classes started again yesterday (we're in tier 2) so this was the morning outfit for kettle bells.
My unused muscles are going to make me suffer for it. I'm unable to motivate myself to exercise alone therefore have done nothing apart from walking for the last month!

Hoodie - White Company
T-shirt - Primark
Jacket - Musto
Leggings - Next
Trainers - New Balance

jilliwilliwoo · 08/12/2020 08:46

I'm also another who needs a wardrobe clear out. I tend to wear the same clothes on rotation and ignore the rest.
I'm going to try and pull out something every day and either wear it or it goes. Wish me luck and strength of will!

Sooverthemill · 08/12/2020 09:00

Welcome @MsCrapola

@Sickoffamilydrama of, great boots
@toastfiend that sounds lovely. I still miss my mum and she died in 1996. My sister is about to be the same age as mum when she died which just seems impossible

Recreating an outfit I wore all winter as a student! Except it was Navy Kickers!

Jumper: white stuff
Cords: jigsaw
Converse

jilliwilliwoo · 08/12/2020 09:08

Ha ha @Sooverthemill I read that as navy knickers! Grin

VanityWitch · 08/12/2020 09:16

I can't seem to take a decent picture, but I'm in my green, phase eight jumper dress again, snag tights and sheepers (sheepskin slippers).

Sooverthemill · 08/12/2020 09:40

@jilliwilliwoo no grey ones today! Navy knickers are school gym kit....
@VanityWitch how do you cope with tights and a woolly dress? Wish I could wear such things

Just bought 3 things in Baukjen sale ( btw the code SMJ20 also seems to give 20% off sale stuff) which I've been looking at for a while now. Also my hush coated jeans arrived finally ( ordered from JL Black Friday but no discount as they had my size in stock) and I think I really like them. Would the colour go with stuff I have oh wise ones? Chucked on first thing ( ie not 'styled') and with the jumper I have on today . Opinions? I do have 35 days as it's JL.

@Sooverthemill, I find it really comfy actually! It is so cold at the moment, I feel I need it Xmas Smile.

Sickoffamilydrama · 08/12/2020 10:55

They look nice @Sooverthemill and you seem to have a lot of neutral colours so I'm sure they will go.
I read the same @jilliwilliwoo and just thought oh the college years were clothes are optional!

Yes @OublietteBravo Ecco are so comfortable I have a few items now although 😭 these boots are starting to wear on the soles I think it's from driving (I usually do a lot) and they aren't the kind of soles that are replaceable.

Baltic here and still tier 4, so a quiet week methinks. Fab new boots have arrived but nowhere to go! Wearing them to do the hoovering, lol. Boots from Fairfax and Favor. Love your ‘sheepers’ @VanityWitch, and that cracking Spark Company top Toast.

coffeeandcardigans · 08/12/2020 12:50

Oooh new thread and three pages in already!

@Sooverthemill I think that colour is really versatile and will go with a lot.
I picked up a pair of coated skinny jeans in black at the weekend. I really like them but also wondering where I will wear them at the moment - I think they'd be great for a night in the pub but no chance of that happening anytime soon! Sad

@Purplecatshopaholic gorgeous boots

Forgot to take a pic yesterday as I was in the office and super busy but I wore a navy cord mini skirt from Oasis and a baggy pale grey jumper from GAP.

Back to jeans and jumper for working from home today- head to toe H&M!

Thanks @Sickoffamilydrama - I had my eye on this since September so am super thrilled with it.

Re cold ankles - I was planning on wearing my hiking boots but it is a short walk to the school so I decided to try the short walk in runners and I was so toasty in the coat that I didn't need to change. However, this morning I met a friend for a walk and we had to drink our coffee outside and it was no problem due to the wonderful coat but oh, my, God, my feet - it took an hour to warm them when I came in. So I will stick to hiking boots and fluffy socks (even if it does not look as cool).

Can I just add to you all - this coat is my favourite buy ever, I want to live in it.

Annasgirl · 08/12/2020 12:59

@Sickoffamilydrama - gorgeous dress. We are so baltic here I am not sure I wills see a dress again until Spring (also have to keep the back door open due to puppy, so my house has an arctic breeze going through it).
