@loving that look @Sickoffamilydrama including with the red coat.

@Shannith those two looks are great on you. I have never bought anything from Me&EM. I’m off to have a look. Not that I need any more clothes. I’m retired and currently avoiding indoor social environments, so all my lovely clothes just sit in my wardrobe, taunting me!

Chrispackhamspoodle · 17/12/2021 01:05

@Shannith you look awesome in all those outfits.Used to love Bay Trading.My oldest item I still wear is a black Gap dress that cost me £35 in 1997.I dithered about buying it as it was expensive for me then. I have since worn it on every sunny holiday I have been on.Rolls up without creasing and can be worn dressed up or down .Still looks good as new.

So, DS has covid and he's been in London last week so it's almost certainly omicron. Sh*t. And he saw his sister last weekend when he was infectious so she now has to do a PCR before she can come

Sooverthemill · 17/12/2021 09:27

@Shannith those are all fabulous outfits.

MrsIPFreely · 17/12/2021 09:29

I’m always tempted by Me&Em @Shannith, but I suspect their clothes are for people who are (much) taller than me! Your outfits are so stylish (as always).

Sorry to hear about your DS @Sooverthemill. I hope he only has a mild case. I’m going to see friends in London tonight - it’s a risk, but I’m triple-jabbed and we’re not going anywhere for Christmas.

I’m finally on holiday. For just over 3 weeks. Next working day is 10 January!

Jumper: Oasis
Jeggings: M&S
Boots: Doc Martens

@OublietteBravo he and his GF are triple jabbed too. They were in London last Thursday/Friday: 4 restaurants, lots of shopping and the theatre. They are ‘sensible’ but they were unlucky. Cases in London are really high.

PalacePaper · 17/12/2021 10:56

Gorgeous new outfits @Shannith, you look lovely. I particularly like the silk blouse.

@Sooverthemill sorry to hear about DS Thanks

@OublietteBravo what a lovely long break! I've also finished for Christmas now, back on the 4th. Great jeggings, are they metallic?

I'm wearing my new jumper Smile And a very old skirt which I seem to have worn a lot over the last few weeks.

Jumper - eribe
Skirt - M&S
Tights - Tesco

Will wear DMs when I pop out later for the last of the stocking fillers for the DC.

@PalacePaper - they’re these ones in bronze. Although they seem more of a pewter colouring me.

EllaPaella · 17/12/2021 12:27

It's beautiful @PalacePaper 🥰🥰

@Shannith looking like a total BOSS there - excellent work.

My out of office is also now on....back on the 6th! Actually a bit worried about getting bored Grin

Sorry to hear of all the positive covid cases and resulting upheaval - DS and I were meant to go to the theatre tonight but it's been cancelled due to positive cases within the company. I'm actually a bit relieved.

Dunga/Jumpsuit Lucy & Yak - I wasn't sure about keeping this but I've worn it lots
White top - Lands End (it's actually a pyjama top but no one would ever know and it's cosy)
Cardi - Hush
Trainers - Veja

I’m glad I ventured into London for dinner with my friends. It was lovely to see them! It’s grey abs drizzly this morning - feels like a dungaree day. Trying to work out if they’re better rolled up or not.

Top: Jigsaw
Dungarees: White Stuff
Boots: Doc Martens

CaterpillaNavilla · 18/12/2021 10:18

Gorgeous jumper @PalacePaper and blouse @Shannith 😍

@Sooverthemill so sorry to hear your family plans have been screwed over by COVID. It really sucks that 2 years on we are still so influenced by it. I’ve a friend in New Zealand who says the measures there are tightening with the Delta and Omicron variants, but because they were so on it closing their borders to being with they have had 2 years of relative normality up until now. Makes me think the UK’s initial response to it was dubious at best!

DH was meant to be touring Europe with his band in January, that’s been cancelled and so have his local gigs between now and Christmas. He’s not a professional musician but fell in with some who are- it was a bit of a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and now it’s cancelled he’s devastated, and I’m gutted for him. The other musicians are going their separate ways across the world this year so no chance of a reunion next year Sad

Really not feeling the outfits at the moment but hey ho..,

Shirt - H&M
Jumper - Next via eBay
Leggings - M&S

@OublietteBravo rolled up I reckon 👍

EllaPaella · 18/12/2021 10:30

Definitely with a bit of a turn up @OublietteBravo 👌
What a beautiful morning! Brilliant blue skies ☺️ Just off to walk the dog on the beach then doing a few last minute Christmas shopping bits. Definitely a sea swim this afternoon as the sea is flat and there is no wind at all.
Then off to friends house for xmas drinks tonight. Hope everyone has a lovely day planned.
