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.

@Shannith thank you! Today I'm channeling you in jodphurs and riding boots!
@Softpebbles ooh, which ones did you go for? Love love love mine. Although have just been bad and bought emerald heeled Reginas from f&f
@EllaPaella you look amazing, but you always do. Not jealous at all!

Shannith · 08/10/2021 14:03

@Justonedayatatime11 oh exciting - what have you been up to?

Today I had to deal with this. This was the clean bit

Long time lurker, occasional poster!
@PalacePaper I’ve just ordered those dungarees, they look great on you!

I have a question for all you DM owners - do they come up big or would you say they’re true to size? I’ve found a pair of black Aimilitas online but have quite wide feet - wondering whether to take the plunge!

OublietteBravo · 08/10/2021 16:45

I have the Aimilitas - I’d say they’re true to size. I don’t think they’re especially narrow. They’re the most comfortable DMs I’ve ever owned - I love them. I think @EllaPaella and @toastfiend also have them.

@OublietteBravo thank you. Off to place an order…

PalacePaper · 08/10/2021 18:47

Ooh fab @MamaOdie I hope you like them Smile

I have the aimilitas, my feet a size 4.5-5 and quite wide, and I have then in a 4. Plenty big enough with room for a thick pair of socks. I do find the red slightly smaller than the black though for some reason 🤔

MamaOdie · 08/10/2021 18:59

@PalacePaper That’s strange! The ones I’ve just ordered are a dark chestnut brown with a tweed lining. They don’t seem to make the Amilitias any more so I will make these ones fit even if I have to wear 3 pairs of socks and insoles 😂

Purplecatshopaholic · 08/10/2021 19:04

Ooh, I love pics of your horse @Shannith. I have a couple of DMs - I’m a 4.5 or 5, but not wide - I take a 4 in DMs. Love em. I hope you enjoy yours @MamaOdie.

Sooverthemill · 08/10/2021 19:26

Gosh! Many opinions. I think I'm keeping the ecru and returning the khaki but I'm going to wait for my other order so that I can compare.

Sickoffamilydrama · 08/10/2021 22:57

Love the photos on awkwardzara @Sooverthemill
Had a busy few days so only have yesterday's outfit to show you.

Long sleeved top M&S

@MamaOdie I have the Aimilita's as well, they are really comfy but the leather is a lot softer than the traditional ones. I had a classic pair but sold them on ebay, they look a long time to break in. They definitely stretch a lot and some styles are narrower than others (pascal are no good for high instep).

DazzlePaintedBattlePants · 09/10/2021 07:32

Delurking to say that I love watching what you are all wearing, it’s a fabulous source of inspiration! Not brave enough to post myself (yet).

I have the DM Amalita’s and they are indeed true to size and comfy. Waiting on an M&S Jaeger camel coat to turn up - that’s my latest purchase.

Sooverthemill · 09/10/2021 08:11

My worst kind of day today, clearing out spare room to properly turn it into a WFH space for DH. I hate doing stuff like this unless I’m allowed to Chuck/donate everything. It’s full of kids memorabilia which I’d get rid of ( we still have the kids in adult form) but apparently we also need their beloved stuffed horse/first essay/ painting. Ditto 1500000000 photos of them in school play/riding a bike. Urgh

Jumper: Baukjen
Jeans: Levi
Trainers: Stan smith
Tee under: H&M

PS : I do adore the kids. Just not their tat

PalacePaper · 09/10/2021 09:05

Morning everyone. My planned trip into our nearest city with DD has changed to a trip to a drive through testing centre as she has been coughing all night Sad At least I can still go to sainsburys for some treats to have with strictly later.

@Sooverthemill I hate those jobs too! DH is ruthless, his preferred approach is to hire a skip and get rid of everything!

Today:
Jeans - NYDJ from charity.
Top - (Halloween ready, I feel like a pumpkin Grin) Boden. I really like the little puff sleeves, may get another colour.
Boots - Dune.

@DazzlePaintedBattlePants 👋 Don't feel you have to post photos - we still love to hear about your outfits. Jaegar camel coat sounds beautiful and perfect for Autumn

EllaPaella · 09/10/2021 10:05

Hope dd is ok @PalacePaper

OublietteBravo · 09/10/2021 10:56

Welcome @DazzlePaintedBattlePants. I remember how nervous I was about posting photos when I first joined these threads. I persevered and now I don’t really worry about it at all!

Love that too @PalacePaper. I’ve always had a bit of a thing for orange.

I was all set to have a dungaree day when I remembered this jumpsuit! I definitely have too many clothes.

Stripy top: Boden (I’ve discovered that I much prefer the neckline on the baseball T-shirts to that on the Breton tops)
Jumpsuit: Brora
Boots: Ecco
