Great @EllaPaella. Where did you get them? ( mind you I have a pair of 'mid rise' jeans that are 11 inches!)

I really like them with my Dm's

Didn't manage to post yesterday, had a day with DH which was lovely. We went for a long walk so was wearing joggers, hoodie and walking boots, then out in the evening - top, Boden; skirt, Sosander; boots, Hobbs.

We saw the new Bond film - really enjoyed it, much better than I expected (won't say any more in case of accidental spoilers!)

@Sickoffamilydrama your red dress is beautiful

@Sooverthemill enjoy your coffee, I hope you get your new boots soon

@20FlowerPower I have a very similar cardigan to your grey &Other Stories one but with bee buttons instead of dinosaurs - do you find it gets very bobbly? Mine looks a bit unloved so I'm considering going over it with one of those fabric shavers, but as it's so fluffy I'm a bit nervous to do so.

Having said that I totally love it, and may wear it today Smile

Sooverthemill · 02/10/2021 08:27

@PalacePaper that sounds lovely.
So, going out with DH at 9 and new boots won’t arrive until at least 10! Would this work? Old flat khaki suede ankle boots with new dress and khaki jacket from hush? Otherwise it’s blue/white platform trainers . My new boots would be perfect
Maybe I should wear jeans!

@Sooverthemill - either the boots or the trainers are fine (I have a slight preference for the trainers). Don’t wear jeans - the dress and jacket look great!

MrsIPFreely · 02/10/2021 10:28

Can I join in please? I don't have a full length mirror at home so it's always tricky getting pictures. I've recently lost a little weight so feel a bit more comfortable in myself.
Today I'm wearing:
Long sleeve white tee from Boden
Cargo mom style jeans from urban outfitters
Gola trainers
Black roll neck alpaca mix jumper from Superdry

Yep, it's definitely cosy cardigan weather today!

Cardigan - &Other Stories
Skirt - White Stuff
Boots - Dune. I was going to wear my DMs but I'm liking having a bit of heel. These were a recent purchase and I've already worn loads.

Welcome @MrsIPFreely Smile Lovely outfit.

Which shoes did you choose @Sooverthemill? I like both

Sooverthemill · 02/10/2021 11:06

@MrsIPFreely welcome! Nice outfit

I chose the boots and added a cable knit ecru jumper because DH said it was freezing. He was right. And have contacted the retailer as I paid £8 for express delivery on Wednesday and I think they should be here by now!

@PalacePaper like your outfit too

OublietteBravo · 02/10/2021 11:17

Welcome @MrsIPFreely - I love those jeans.

I’m firmly into knitwear and boots - it’s definitely autumn!

Jumper: Jigsaw
Jeans: Jigsaw
Boots: Ecco (still very tempted to buy these in the green colour that @Sickoffamilydrama drew my attention to)

20FlowerPower · 02/10/2021 17:33

Love that outfit @MrsIPFreely - jeans and jumper both great picks.

@PalacePaper that looks like exactly the same cardi Smile it's so cosy, but sometimes too warm for me. I've had a big of bobbling under the arms but not much to be honest. It very rarely gets a proper wash as I'm so scared of ruining it Blush Love that plum skirt you've paired it with today.

Today I went into town and got absolutely soaked.

Dress : Oliver Bonas
Tights : M&S (Grey Opaque)
Boots : Zara (old and desperately need replaced this year)
Thistle Brooch : Tatty Devine

I’m trying to remind myself what knitwear I already have. I’m not working this coming week - I really should go through my wardrobe and actually attempt to get rid of/sell the clothes I never wear.

Jumper: M&S
Trousers: Anthropologie
Boots: Doc Martens

PalacePaper · 03/10/2021 11:27

Slow start today. Cool enough for the first outing for this jumper Smile Whole outfit is M&S today I think - can't remember where the tights are from but M&S is pretty safe guess Grin

Ok, so I really want to get some dungarees or a sleeveless jumpsuit this winter after coveting them for a couple of years (I'm always late to a trend 😆) I know there are a few of you on this thread who always look great in them - my question is about footwear 🤔 When you want ankles covered (I get cold!) but don't want to tuck into boots, what do you wear on your feet with them??

I may well be overthinking this but any thoughts would be very welcome!

(I know I will have missed others who also nail the dungaree/ jumpsuit style)

Sooverthemill · 03/10/2021 12:06

I don't often go outside @PalacePaper but I wear trainers or loafers most often. If I did go out side I think I'd wear nice socks eg glitter socks? And to go outside I would wear ankle boots that went underneath the hem.

OublietteBravo · 03/10/2021 12:07

@PalacePaper: In the winter I tend to wear them with my Docs. Specifically dark-coloured knee socks + Docs. This means you can roll the trousers up a bit to meet the top of the boots without having a gap that leads to chilly ankles.

Sooverthemill · 03/10/2021 12:09

Also here

20FlowerPower · 03/10/2021 12:52

@PalacePaper for me it's normally leather high top trainers - something like these.

https://www.jonesbootmaker.com/products/bulner-high-top-trainer-gab28530-313-163?variant=39432551497791&gclid=CjwKCAjwqeWKBhBFEiwABoXBmM30EMEXkglXAYPMnY45bomEAhpyyLK-QEO1OBCW-GKnlp5YFZecxoCZXUQAvDBwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

I can't be doing with most dungarees - especially those with flappy straps, but I do like my Lucy & Yak Juni Boilersuit. Love a jumpsuit though.

EllaPaella · 03/10/2021 13:00

@PalacePaper I don't often wear dungarees in winter but if I do then I would wear with trainers or DM's. High tops would also look good.
I've just ordered a pair of flatform trainers as well, they would work too.

Todays outfit- new wide legs jeans, cardigan from Tesco, top Oasis, trainers Veja.
