I am walking doggo at the moment but going into town with DS1 who is back up from uni for a long weekend to do some Christmas shopping and have lunch so I might wear a dress. Will post a pic later.

@EllaPaella it was VERY cheap but I wear it all the time.Makes an outfit a bit more special than a black material skirt.Might get a tan one.
Plus wipeable!

@Chrispackhamspoodle you've reminded me that I have a pleather skirt under the bed, it was from sainsburys and I have only worn it once two years ago!

I nipped into Next yesterday and picked up a lovely cord 'mini' skirt. I am going to wear this weekend.

Today WFH, jeans and an unexciting jumper.

Enjoy shopping with your DS @EllaPaella, my DC is coming home next week for the Christmas break and I can't wait!

[quote Chrispackhamspoodle]@Sooverthemill are those the navy cord ones Did you size up or are they a good fit?[/quote]
They are size 8 my usual jeans size. Navy cord which is my favourite colour in cord. I used the size checker they have where you enter your measurements . They are neat. ( not best). I was surprised when I first out them on as was expecting more relaxed fit but actually I love them. I have fat face lewis ones in 2 washes one is 10 and 1 is 8 and I prefer the 8. Does that rambling answer help!?

EllaPaella · 03/12/2021 10:28

How lovely @Softpebbles - it's so nice to have them home 😊

@Chrispackhamspoodle here 8 is OOS

Chrispackhamspoodle · 03/12/2021 10:44

@Sooverthemill that's really helpful and thanks for the link.

OublietteBravo · 03/12/2021 10:53

I love your velvet shirt @20FlowerPower - such a great colour!

IvorCutler · 03/12/2021 11:01

Joining in to show off my vintage Christmas poinsettia jumper (taking the kids to see Santa today). I’m also surrounded by Christmas tat on my sofa, so feeling particularly festive!

@Sooverthemill I love those dungarees! Also your shirt @20FlowerPower, that’s a fab colour.

I love the fit of the Boden dungarees @Sooverthemill. I’m really tempted by the pale khaki floral ones. But I already have 4 pairs of dungarees. I can’t possibly need any more.

Sooverthemill · 03/12/2021 11:46

@OublietteBravo yes I understand! I sold my black curd fat face ones as the fabric was too floppy so I was down to 3 pairs ( one of which I can’t find). I don’t need them but I love them. I’m sure I will wear them lots.

Sooverthemill · 03/12/2021 11:47

Bloody autocorrect CORD

I don’t think it’s fine @WaltzingBetty but I think people may have things going on in their lives that we know nothing about and it’s not fair to intentionally cause them grief. If you’d made your comment without being so specific and including a picture I wouldn’t have had an issue with it.

AnnieSnap · 03/12/2021 12:49

Lovely outfits on everyone today. @Chrispackhamspoodle that look really suits you 🙂

Sooverthemill · 03/12/2021 13:04

@WaltzingBetty supportive of our regular and new posters on this thread yes. You don't seem to be either

EllaPaella · 03/12/2021 14:23

Sorry for messy photo - I have a bedroom full of packages waiting to be wrapped!

Love that jumper @CaterpillaNavilla

@EllaPaella you always pull it off. Beautiful dress.

I’ve got a Christmas jumper on order as I may have shrunk mine in the wash last year 🤦‍♀️

Purplecatshopaholic · 03/12/2021 17:51

Succumbed to the Xmas spirit when I passed Primark earlier!

AnnieSnap · 03/12/2021 18:17

Am I being silly by not anonymising my photo. I don’t feel the need to be private about them, but I seem to be the only one showing my face. Is it a bad idea?

Jumper - Hobbs
Trousers - Baukjen
Slipper socks - Seasalt
