@Sickoffamilydrama the trousers and jumper look really good. I love that shade of green.

Greyhairwarmheart · 16/12/2021 07:09

I also love that shade of green @Sickoffamilydrama and I do love the comfort of a jersey dress @AnnieSnap. Although I like the look of your dress too. Thanks for the culottes love @toastfiend. Yesterday skirt coast cardigan Gap

We don’t really have many Christmas plans @Sooverthemill but I am seeing friends this weekend. I am anxious but hoping that as I’ve just had it I’ll be ok. I’m trying to think that out of all of those that have tested positive there are millions who haven’t and all been to work/school/pubs etc. In an ideal world I’d cancel this weekend but it’s the only thing I’m doing and they are all happy to meet - I do tend to be the anxious one. Maybe because my chest is still bad 🤷‍♀️

Today I am going to do a bit of shopping.

Dress - monki and a bit dull but comfortable!
Will wear with docs and teddy type coat.

@Softpebbles I hope you are okay. It is an anxious time for everyone and if you struggle with anxiety as well it's hard. We have DD1 and her DH and DS with his GF coming for a family meal and a few days of just relaxing ( for them, not for me!). But yesterday evening DS called to say he and GF had cold symptoms, felt dreadful and had booked a PCR test for today. We don't usually allow visitors to come even if they just have a cold as DD has such poor immunity ( often neutropenic) . So I am now left not knowing what will happen. Oh well

@toastfiend so nice to see you! Great outfits.
@Greyhairwarmheart you always make me feel very calm. Love you outfits too

It feels like things are changing by the day at the moment doesn't it? We're hoping to have visitors for Christmas but who knows where we'll be by then?! I'm trying not too think too far ahead. I hope you're able to have your family to stay @Sooverthemill and hope you enjoy your meet up @Softpebbles and are fully recovered soon.

I've had a flurry of parcels arrive today - mostly Christmas presents but I did decide to go for it and order the eribe jumper like @EllaPaella's but in a different colour. Definitely a very considered purchase, so it needs to be perfect - I've opened it and it is so pretty! I haven't tried on yet so I'm hoping it suits me and fits 🤞🏻

Today (last day of work before Christmas Smile):

Jumper - superdry
Cords - M&S
Furry slipper boots - Emu

@PalacePaper we need photos!
@Chrispackhamspoodle I actually liked the coat!

OublietteBravo · 16/12/2021 14:29

Nice dress + boots seems to be a bit of a theme for me at the moment.

Cardigan: Warehouse
Dress: Hobbs
Boots: Doc Martens

PalacePaper · 16/12/2021 17:26

Here's my new jumper @EllaPaella @Sooverthemill

It's hard to get a good photo, the colours are more vivid than they look here. Im sure it wont be to everyone's taste and it's very different for me - I don't usually wear much pattern! - but there's something about it I really love.

@PalacePaper I really love your jumper.
Just caught up on posts.@Sooverthemill your dress really suits you.@OublietteBravo I saw those M&S camo joggers last week.Very soft and a bargain.I ordered the coated leggings in the end so must not buy the joggers!Ikea was very quiet today and I had a lovely time mooching around and having lunch.They are out of stock of lots of things though which was probably a good thing for my purse.I am also shattered.Off for the whole of Christmas from the 21st.Would like a very quiet one.

Sorry I've been so terrible at keeping up with this thread. I got busy and out of the habit but I've just got a load of new bits from me&em and I'm in love.

I might be leaping back into corporate life in the new year so as suits are a no nowadays I've been looking around for stuff that is classic with a funky twist. I tried some of their stuff earlier in the year and came to the conclusion that it's made for giants. I've sized down (including the shoes, which came up massive) and I'm extremely impressed. The quality is superb and they are beautifully cut and made. Far better than jigsaw which was my work mainstay. More like Joseph.

The cut is high end and though the shit lighting in my bedroom doesn't show it they look expensive (I mean it's not cheap but looks even better).

Exciting @Shannith and the outfits look fabulous. Is the black a jumpsuit can't tell on my phone?

I wore the red shirt today decided that the colour is great but it's the fit that puts me off it kind of rides up around the neck. It was only from Lidl/Aldi

Jumpsuit Mint velvet
Boots Ecco

Loving this pink scarf with a red coat.

Today for my 2nd( non NHS) job I have worn a Seasalt checked mid calf length dress with Brora Boots I got in sale 2 years ago. Also a Brora Mohair blue long length cardigan. I normally wear scrub stuff for work and Seasalt needlecord dresses for home etc. Does anyone know the best place to buy non wired padded bras?? I had to change mine due to Costochondritis and have m n s ones but think they don't give proper uplift/ support...as in one breast looks lower in some dresses!

Sickoffamilydrama · 16/12/2021 20:02

Next have some ones that look good never tried them @Doobydoo & an instagrammer I follow swears by Primark.

@Shannith I am now coveting these and it's all your fault 🤣 honestly this thread has led me astray time and time again!

@Sickoffamilydrama at least they have a sale on!

Sooverthemill · 16/12/2021 20:47

@Doobydoo sorry no idea as I always wear wired but try bravissimo I guess

Shannith · 16/12/2021 21:44

@Sickoffamilydrama yes it's a jumpsuit. And you know you rock a jumpsuit. @obliettebravo I thought of you as you also look great in a jumpsuit.

Though I have been inspired to go through some of my other bits that say I'm the boss baby but are not suits as such.

Leopard jacket - Janet ray (charity)
Top - bay trading! This is the oldest thing in my wardrobe and was bought for my first ever office job err 26 years ago!
Trousers - Hobbs
Stilettos - LK bennet

Silk shirt - label has been cut out but it was £1. It's so lovely!
Culottes - M&S £2
Boots - Jigsaw

Blue jacket - it's vintage 50s I think about £5
Shirt - me&em
Trousers - Hobbs

In reality I'd wear the me&em black fur lined trainers but I do love a heel in theory.
