I’m hoping I’ve been here long enough to be allowed to start the new thread. I’m looking forward to seeing everyone’s outfits as we move into my favourite fashion season.

@Sickoffamilydrama so I love the sparkly jumpsuit but not with sparkly blazer, I would add a different jacket if you need one. Love the mint velvet one, no way you can get it in your size? Looks amazing with the hush jacket.

@OublietteBravo I remember your trip to Iceland. How can that be 2 years ago?
Great outfits, a nice nice pink jumper and a good shirt but I can't remember who wore what. Brain slowly melting

Sooverthemill · 20/10/2021 09:19

@Sickoffamilydrama look at this? It's for you

Shannith · 20/10/2021 10:03

@Sickoffamilydrama

Then there's this jumpsuit it's halter neck but a size bigger than my normal and would definitely need taking in and weirdly for me the legs taking up but was the last in the sale.

Picture of me holding the back in to give you an idea of the shape it has nice darting details.

It's mint velvet

That is stunning @Sickoffamilydrama

Thanks for all the jumpsuit feedback I think I'm going to keep the long sleeved one. It's stylish and comfortable plus for male dominated events I don't feel to on display, although they should by now be able to get a grip and not be arses to see a woman without being a leach!

I like the one you sent as well @Sooverthemill I just can't justify both!

I like the styling they've done in this image with the long sleeved one and thought I'd share it as might give others inspiration.

Today I'm doing sunny yellow
Jumper Anna Taylor
Jeans Next

And if someone can help me justify the hush blazer that I will probably only wear once or twice a year then do help me it's a really sparkly and would last year's. She says looking for excuses to spend to much money on something she doesn't need 😉

chasingmytail4 · 20/10/2021 13:04

@Sickoffamilydrama I have a Hush sparkly dress and I've worn it ten times as much as I thought I would, I therefore give my permission for you to buy the blazer Smile. If anyone queries the purchase, refer them to me Wink

Shannith · 20/10/2021 13:12

@KiteflyingKat great post. That is the beauty of this thread. It's normal women posting what they are actually wearing today. I'm 80% anti fashion and covered in mud/horse/cat/dog hair. And I post those day too.

If dressing in clothes from the £1 rail makes me a fashionista- I'm Grin

Which brings me onto

Yesterday -

Leopard jacket - Rachel Roy/Ray?
Top - new look
Trousers - probably yoga pants but beautifully made £2 via Facebook
Trainers - who stakes via charity

And today

Mud splattered jacket - Lucy and Yak
Riding leggings - Amazon
Boots - (that I actually cleaned this morning - now filthy again) Premier Equine

Hi all!

Rejoining after a long break (and a name change).

@Sickoffamilydrama I love that jumper! I have a weakness for yellow knitwear.

@Chrispackhamspoodle you have inspired me to head to M&S in search of sweater dresses. (Noted your warning about lack of temp control).

I'm exploring my A/W jeans/footwear options outside of skinnies. This is the pair of jeans I plumped for. I tried lots and was despairing of finding anything. I'm quite small hence the huge turn ups. I'm hopeful that the boots will keep the jeans out of the puddles.

Cardigan- & other stories
Jeans- Zara
Boots- Clarks desert boots. I'm still trying them on. 90% sure I'll hang on to them.

Shannith · 20/10/2021 13:15

And some stuff from the &1 rail yesterday

Shirt - french connection
Fake leather - dress - Zara
Boots - vintage (charity)
Trousers and trainers as before

And what I'm wearing right now with the dog on a train

Jacket - north face
Rushing leggings
T-shirt - diesel
Boots - Dubarry

CoraggioCara · 20/10/2021 13:26

@rockyV I love your outfit of a couple of days ago. You are rocking that double denim & it looks great.

It's official... cowboy boots are going on my Christmas list

CoraggioCara · 20/10/2021 13:32

@Shannith I like your 2 looks at a time approach. Keeps it real

Sickoffamilydrama · 20/10/2021 14:02

@Shannith the £1 rail triumphs again, I wish we had one near me even though we have more charity coffee & barber shops than we want or need in the town there's no one's with bargain rails 😔

JunieSpoony · 20/10/2021 14:40

Ooh @CoraggioCara, what shape are those jeans called? They could possibly tempt me away from skinnies. I'd love to get a pair of bootlegs but they all look so terrible on me compared to how they looked 20 years ago. Sad

Today (played tennis and had to jump straight into wfh without a shower yet):
Black leggings H&M
Patagonia t-shirt (under jumper)
Old Navy jumper, this season.

@Shannith I'm channelling you again today in riding stuff and a layer of sweat Hmm. Can you point me in the direction of a good pair of short riding boots?

Shannith · 20/10/2021 15:10

@Justonedayatatime11 I'm not a fan of short riding boots - though I do have a pair from Tuffa that I wear with chaps. I find long boots comfier - and they come in loads of different widths which is you have chicken legs like me helps.

All the short boots I've ever had have been stiff and uncomfortable to walk in.

But if I was going to suggest a brand for shorter boots it would be Ariat and I'd get ones that lace up (or zip up of you are going to be traipsing through mud) rather than a traditional jodhpur boot.

I sweated like a beast riding today. It was hot and pony was in a forward mood!

Justonedayatatime11 · 20/10/2021 15:18

Thank you @Shannith. I also realised my first post read like I thought you were sweaty Shock. That absolutely was not what I was trying to say!

20FlowerPower · 20/10/2021 15:28

Not sure about today's outfit but I'm comfy and cosy so don't really mind too much.

Trousers are new and a bit too shiny maybe? Only £22 though.

Trousers : Sainsbury's "leather" joggers
Top : Boden
Cardigan : Hush (I'd wear this every day if I could. It was £££ but already it's worth it in terms of spend per wear)
Shoes : H&M - very old but "fur" lined and so very warm and easy to throw on

Shannith · 20/10/2021 16:16

@Justonedayatatime11 I took it as channeling horse don't worry. I love autumn but at the moment I've got a mud caked hose (standard) who was sweating despite being clipped. So double...fun.

@20FlowerPower love that outfit and I'd live in that cardigan too (mud notwithstanding).

My new favourite charity shop Hospices on the Weald, - all clothes are £2.

So today

Jacket - H&M - really very nice.
T-shirt - Label Lab
Jeans - Citizens of Humanity. Yep - I used to buy them when I worked in NY and it was $2 to the £1 and even then I winced at the prices.
Belt is actually vintage from 20 years ago (it was vintage then)

@JunieSpoony I think it's as much a mindset shift as anything else. I was inspired by a poster on another thread who said that if we are going to try new styles we have to let go of the idea that the purpose of jeans is to make our legs appear as slim as possible.

Screenshot shows the name of the style
