@Littlemiss74 thanks, I got them in June. Just had a look on the website and can't see them anymore unfortunately.

Inspired by then @EllaPaella I have ordered these. Figured with a nice black jumper, tights and docs they may look ok?!

Thoughts?!

@Sooverthemill it sounds like you had a wonderful day xx

Purplecatshopaholic · 19/09/2021 21:47

Lovely sounding, relaxed day @Sooverthemill. And I love those culottes @EllaPaella. I went into town today in pirate boots, with leather shorts from Ganni and a jumper from Forgotten Tribes. It was surprisingly mild, but it’s chucking it down now, so I got back in time to miss it!

Love them @Softpebbles - tempted myself, let me know what the sizing is like as I am between a 10-12 in New Look so don't know whether to size up or down!

It’s feeling autumnal here too. I’m still getting used to being back in an air conditioned office. I’m not sure I’ve determined the optimum number of layers just yet!

Shirt: Boden
Trousers: Boden
Trainers: Jigsaw

Missed a few days as I've been sorting out the garden. Very grateful for summer's last hurrah.

Lovely to see everyone's going out outfits @EllaPaella @Sooverthemill @PalacePaper

@Justonedayatatime11 that sounds scary - hope you are OK now. Life is too short and the boots look fabulous- wear them everyday!

I had a few life is too short moments a couple of years ago - touch and go for a while.

You'd be forgiven for thinking I'd forgotten the lessons of wear your best stuff to do the hoovering given today's outfit.

Hoody - so old I've no idea
Top and leggings H&M
Socks - running ones. I'm not going running.

I think with black boots the black belt

@Sickoffamilydrama thank you! I prefer the brown but @EllaPaella is right it needs to match the boots

Am in vaguely autumnal clothes again, can't bear the idea of shoes yet really.. Trying to enjoy my last few days of freedom buy continuing my huge wardrobe clear out. It's really enjoyable! And eBay is doing well again.
Does anyone want my hush oxblood coated skinnies size 8? Message me if so, they are definitely going oh and my mint velvet faux leather leggings both hardly worn

Tee: Sézane
Chinos: j crew
Sandals: Birkenstock
Sweatshirt: hush ( temperature should be 20 though)

OublietteBravo · 21/09/2021 08:55

I think the black belt looks best too @Sickoffamilydrama. I still love that skirt - every time you wear it I notice how nice it is.

I’m totally failing to do anything about sorting out my wardrobe @Sooverthemill. I really should though - there are definitely clothes in it that I never wear.

Shirt: Boden
Jeans: Gap
Trainers: Gabor

Justonedayatatime11 · 21/09/2021 09:07

@Sooverthemill how much would you like for both pairs please?

20FlowerPower · 21/09/2021 09:27

I am loving Sainsbury's at the moment!

Skirt - Sainsburys (new £18)
Jumper - Oasis? (Old)
Shoes - Zara (very old)

I've messaged you x

PalacePaper · 21/09/2021 09:58

Ooh @Sooverthemill I would have been interested in the faux leather leggings if @Justonedayatatime11 hadn't beaten me to it, but I've just bought some from M&S to wear with a jumper dress - waiting for the weather to cool down. Your DD's day sounds perfect, and the dress you wore is beautiful Smile

@Sickoffamilydrama I'm going against the grain and saying I prefer the brown belt, I think the colour works really well with the colours of the skirt.

@20FlowerPower love your outfits from the last couple of days.

Weather still a bit too in between for my liking - I'm ready for cosy jumpers and woolly tights!

Jeans - M&S; t-shirt - mint velvet; belt - John Lewis

Shannith · 21/09/2021 10:51

@Sickoffamilydrama technically the black with the black but I'd probably wear the brown. Both look nice - such a great skirt

@obliettebravo that's possibly my favourite of your many lovely shirts. I've got a similar coloured one that you have inspired me to wear tomorrow.

@PalacePaper I live that outfit. The jeans look great on you.

Today (100% charity obviously)
Too - mint velvet
Jeans - ASOS
Jacket - ?
Shoes - also ?

@PalacePaper love but also would defiantly live/wear it!

Shannith · 21/09/2021 10:53

Definitely. The Germans didn't need the Enigma machine. They could have hired me.

Rollerbird · 21/09/2021 13:35

@sickoffamilydrama
Solution - buy some new boots to match the brown belt!!!

What does everyone think of this outfit I have a business event/show there won't be any customers there might be opportunities to meet potential suppliers/partners/collaborators

So does this say business casual to you? I don't ever feel that great in a suit and this event is smart business if that makes sense.

Isn't smart business not is smart business.

Next week I have a smart business meeting for which I will need to be suited and booted so to speak.
