What are you wearing today? May 2021

[EllaPaella]

Hi all

Link to old thread https://www.mumsnet.com/Talk/styleandbeauty/4174287-What-are-you-wearing-today-Spring-2021?msgid=104962677

I’d say you’re a size 10 @KiteflyingKat.

@Sooverthemill - you are a bad influence (and I’ll take photos when my Whistles parcel arrives).

You look nice and summery @Dauphinois

@KiteflyingKat I'd also say 10.

@KiteflyingKat I would say 10 too. But I’ve spent my whole life feeling huge and massively disliking my body. ☹️

@KiteflyingKat I'd say 10 and you look very toned.
Some gorgeous dresses today @Softpebbles and @Sooverthemill

Still on a mission to find sone wide leg jeans that don't look hideous on me, all the high waist ones I've tried look terrible. Ordered https://www.asos.com/weekday/weekday-ray-organic-cotton-low-rise-wide-leg-jeans-in-hanson-blue/prd/23745052?colourwayid=60508978&SearchQuery=weekday+jeans these (link fail) to try.

@EllaPaella have you tried any like these? I ordered in the darker blue, nice fit but I'm not sure what shoes to wear with them other than wedges..

Crap me is back again. I was hopeful that sunshine would see me wearing clothes but I still seem to live in either riding gear or pants and a vest. Just actual pants because it's summer.

And I keep forgetting every time I wear something normal.

Loving all the stylish summer dresses.

@KiteflyingKat you are a bit taller than me - I'd say a 10 with a cracking figure. Especially post child!

Just realised that I appear pregnant in that photo. I'm not! Think my hitching the dress up to stay cool has made it go weird. Luckily I hitched it down to leave the house.

@zigzagaway they look lovely, I haven't tried those ones. I think i will wear with either my Veja campo trainers or DM sandals.

Well it’s mild here but raining. Off for Vaccine today. Lucy Choi boots with my furry Zara jacket. Going with the Ganni leather shorts again. Yet another Purplecat on the bed, lol

@Purplecatshopaholic omg it is so hot here. Trying to cook tea and wishing I’d not meal planned sausages

Yep I agree with others 10/12 @KiteflyingKat

If it helps I'm 5ft 8". I'm a 14 on top but always a 16 on the bottom did once fit into a 12 pair of jeans they must have been big in the hips but my hips have always been a 14-16.

Thought I'd take a pic with my bag as it's the perfect casual summer bag.

Unbearably hot here. Had to go into the city today to return something so went real life shopping! Came out with a top, skirt and a pair of very unlike me trousers. They may make an appearance after all the thunderstorms and rain that are now forecast!!

Thanks all. I’m a 10/12 but more like a 12 right now.
I always used to be a super thin size 6/8 until I was 35ish so I feel massive, even though I know I’m not

@KiteflyingKat snap exactly. It's difficult to accept!!

@KiteflyingKat I used to be an 8. Am now usually a 10 on top and 8 occasionally a 6 on the bottom. Sizing is crazy though

@EllaPaella they look fab. Jealous as I'm too short for all these

Definitely cooler today. Although I might have to change as the colour of my jumper really doesn’t work with the colour of my office walls, and I have a video call later.

Jumper: Jigsaw
Trousers: Warehouse
Trainers: Moda in Pelle

Rain! But warm/ humid. Spent half an hour trying on summer clothes today have more of a declutter.
DDs appointment has been changed to a telephone appointment. Phew
Top: Sézane via eBay
Trousers: Boden 3 years ago these are a lower waist than I prefer now but are comfortable so I’m trying for the day then deciding
Sandals: Birkenstock’s Eva ( waterproof!)

Love that outfit @Sooverthemill, relaxed and cool. I am feeling a bit Vaccine-crap today, so relaxing and feeling sorry for myself. Boyfriends band tee shirt and an All Saints slip dress. At least the weather here is nicer today so hopefully some vitamin D will help the recovery process..

DM sandals
Having a day full of drama so far! Counting down to 5pm

Ooh @EllaPaella, you have those awesome DM sandals on again - love them!

Hope it settles down @EllaPaella

Blouse Sainsbury's
Skirt Monki

Today I'm wearing this dress from Boden

@Sickoffamilydrama you are right - that's the perfect bag for a lovely dress

@obliettebravo I love that you are going to change your top because it doesn't go with the office walls. I'm very impressed with your dedication

@Justonedayatatime11 that's a gorgeous dress on you - very classy

Same @Lan2020 - really pretty dress

@Sooverthemill those trousers are fab.

Had my hair cut and collated for the first time in 4?5? years today. It basically looks the same, just less like I e been dragged through a hedge. Which I usually have.

Top - new look
Shorts - Gap
Sandals- M&S

Also what I've been wearing in the house loads

An ancient Zara shirt/dress which is light and airy but needs to be worn over trousers in public has it's slit too high at the sides.
