@Shannith you've almost made me want to get on a horse again!

It’s Friday, it’s warm, and I only have internal meetings today so a wee Dress Down Day is in order I think. Sundress from the All Saints sale with Terry de Havilland sandals, also in the sale.

Love that dress @Sooverthemill and the Jumpsuit @OublietteBravo congratulations to DD sooverthemill 💒

My legs look pale in this photo probably because they are, I've used fake tan over the years but really can't be bothered anymore with unrealistic expectations anymore.

That's weird I only saw a couple of posts until after my pictures had posted looking good all, love all the dresses.

Shannith · 16/07/2021 19:07

@KiteflyingKat I like the trousers but I'm also not sure what footwear. Could you get away with trainers that don't look like trainers? So me&em or similar? Or a chunky sandal? Cropped wide legs are tricky.

@Rollerbird you look extremely ducky in that pic!

@Sooverthemill that dress is absolutely gorgeous. What a great investment. I love it. And hurrah for your DD. I'm glad they got it sorted and a big party to enjoy. That too and jeans combo is fab - you look like a total babe. Get back on a horse! So much fun.

@obliettebravo that is such a nice jumpsuit. You always look great in them, but I think that's my new favourite.

And great dresses everyone.

Today once again I wore riding clothes. DD who is famed for mostly taking videos of herself rather than me and photos of fence posts managed one today.

I was wondering @shannith!! 😁

I have 20 mins to decide whether or not I'm brave enough to leave the house in these shorts to go out for brunch. I feel like I have the palest, hideous legs in all of Norfolk Sad.

I think you look great @Justonedayatatime11. Although I know what you mean - I’m always a bit self-conscious about being pale.

Today is definitely a summer dress day. I’m so pleased we have nice weather at the weekend (for once).

@Justonedayatatime11 have you seen my pale legs? your legs are a lovely shape and even if they weren't that doesn't mean there's anything wrong with wearing shorts.

DD whole class has to isolate so doing a garden day today, they are all gutted as Year 6 so this was her last week of primary school.

I'm glad your daughter found a solution @Sooverthemill. When I read your original post I did think that I would just go off and get married quietly in similar circumstances. But she also has a party planned! Sorry for all the stress you have all been through.
Chin up @EllaPaella and hope things improve soon. I also work in healthcare and we are struggling to get on with the work and also not overload ourselves in case some if us have to self isolate.
You look great in those shorts @Justonedayatatime11. I struggle with shorts due to horrible varicose veins.
We had a great day at the beach with my mum, brother and niece yesterday. I've never spent hours on a Scottish beach before wearing just my swimming costume. Dh and I went back to the beach today to make the most of the weather.

Thanks for the shorts love. They stayed on all day and I kept my sunglasses on to avoid the bright white glare from my horrible legs! Everyone looks lovely, isn't it nice to be able to wear summer clothes?!

Sooverthemill · 18/07/2021 08:08

Img it was so hot! Sat at a beach cafe and boiled. Now home and in shorts. DD1 is very pragmatic about the wedding. She’s a star

I don't think this skirt flatters me at all, give me no waist. Which is a pity as it's light and comfy
