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

@NotMyCat - I agree with the reviews. They come up big. Consider sizing down. (I bought 2 sizes and kept the smaller one)

@Sickoffamilydrama all those dresses are lovely. Especially like the first two.

We are off to exmoor, riding about 6-7 hours a day. I'm technically a better rider than DD (she's 10 so I flipping well should be) but she has no fear, so we are reasonably matched in how fast we like to go. It's our 3rd riding holiday together and I'm going to put my big girl pants on and race her. And win because my horse will be bigger

@Sickoffamilydrama I absolutely LOVE you and your sisters dresses! Bloody gorgeous- keep for sure ❤️

Just saw this brand on Instagram it looks nice although I can't spend anymore at the moment still recovering from our house move.

Ahh thanks @EllaPaella and @Shannith

That sounds fun @Shannith sadly my kids aren't into horses actually thank goodness I'm sure my finances are still recovering from having horses 9 years on from my last!

And what I wore when not riding today.

Top - river island
Shorts - unknown

Both £1 rail. It's how I afford horses!

I did a riding "holiday" at Talland. Less holiday, more hardcore instruction had flat, lunge, jump and sidesaddle lessons. Three hours of lessons a day and I was so sore because it was mega intensive

Where is the summer! Even yesterday I needed a cardigan to sit outside
Tee: Boden
Dungarees: fat face
Sandals : air and grace

Nice dungas Soover
What's going on with the weather down south? It was beautiful here yesterday- really hot. I just know it's going to be terrible over summer holidays as it's been too nice for too long!
Warm and muggy but a sea fog here this morning, got woken in the early hours by the fog horn blaring out.
I got these Topshop Mom jeans yesterday (hence why the label is still on in pic) and have decided to keep them, I'm never really sure on Mom jeans but these are the nicest fit I've found so far.

Just catching up properly, loads of lovely clothes this week..

@Sickoffamilydrama love your new dresses, your DSis must have been pleased!
@EllaPaella I really like your culottes and am trying really hard not to buy them 😂
And the same for @NotMyCat's fabulous trainers
@Shannith love your London outfit, especially the zebra bag & @Sooverthemill, today's dungerees look fab and you had a lovely pale colour jumper recently that you had knitted, very nice.

Out for food yesterday:

Dress - apricot
Sandals - DP
Denim jacket - not sure but it's at least 25 years old!

They're nice @EllaPaella definitely keep. We have had pretty shit weather for weeks now. I've had the heating on most of the week and there was really only one week of really nice weather beginning of June I think ! We had warm enough weather for DH to swim in the sea yesterday but he hasn't at all for the previous 10 days ( because of weather). I'm so fed up with the mud

Great outfit today @zigzagaway.

I like those jeans on you @EllaPaella. It looks like a good fit to me.

Don’t know what is going on with our weather. It’s currently grey and looks like rain, but incredibly humid. Weather forecast is for rain almost every day for the foreseeable future (and has been for over a week already).

Top: Primark
Trousers: White Stuff
Trainers: Ecco

Yep we are similar weather wise although my app said all day rain today and that's gradually changed the storm seems to be shifting to later in the day.

It's warm enough for shorts and t-shirt hear especially with the humidity.

I'm unwittingly an advert for Tesco's clothing today the top is ancient though.

Nice jeans @EllaPaella great dungarees @Sooverthemill
And whole outfit is fab @zigzagaway

Why did my phone switch here to hear?? Honestly 🤦‍♀️

@NotMyCat wow that is impressive but I bet it was fun. 3 hours of instruction is indeed hardcore. My dressage (loosest possible term) lessons 45 mins and I'm sweating.

@EllaPaella I like the jeans a lot - perfect for the summer/not summer/monsoon/bollocks we are having.

@zigzagaway nice outfit. Denim jackets always get better and better with age.

@Sickoffamilydrama love the shorts. You've got lovely long legs!

Exmoor is looking dry and warmish. Probably for the best as despite being born of parents who are both dark and tan in seconds she is practically translucent and does not do well in heat.

Boring lawnmowing outfit and dog walking outfit but with sturdy shoes.

Top - oasis
Shorts - unknown
Sandals- M&S

Had to pop into the local town so obviously went into the Red Cross charity shop £1 rail.

All £1 each
Dress - e essentials (belt mine, banana republic)
Skirt - Karelia Finn
Blue chiffon - debut

Dress

Lovely dresses, especially the first mint green one. What a bargain!

Wow brilliant bargains @Shannith love them all!

@Shannith you look amazing. Fancy coming to my JL appointment with me Weds and lending me some of your style please?!

Gorgeous dresses @Shannith. My dd and I love charity shops. We're looking forward to exploring some new ones on holiday. Hectic week so haven't posted. Weather lovely until the weekend here. Now we have the rain. Monday dress white stuff

Tuesday skirt part one, top monsoon, cardigan fat face.

Thursday top s Oliver, cardigan Asda, skirt fat face

It's so muggy here. This is yesterday's outfit when it was chucking it down.
Combats: gap
Jumper: Oliver Bonas
Trainers: Gola
Coat: Protected Species

It’s looking good! I desperately need to get some sun on my purple legs!
Ordered both these 6 weeks ago and been waiting to wear them
Linen top: seasalt
Linen shorts: H&M
Sandals: Penelope Chilvers
