@Raaraaboonah welcome! Great outfit

Beautiful coat @Pigtailsandall, what a gorgeous colour 😍

I've always wanted a poncho @Raaraaboonah but I've never quite found one that I like on me. Yours looks great! I could do with one now, I'm a bit chilly WFH 🥶

Jeans - M&S

I am wearing the flamingo dress with a random jumper over the top (that DD seems to have shrunk Sad). Having some laundry issues (i.e. a basket of my clothes has gone walkabout somehow) so been in two outfits all week.

@Megan1992xx I prefer the new hair colour! Looks great.

@Softpebbles hope you're on the mend soon.

Hello @Raaraaboonah!

Megan1992xx · 18/11/2021 15:39

Thank you hun:)

Shannith · 18/11/2021 15:47

What! Blimey that filled up like lightning. I've been getting over a lovely dose on Norovirus (thanks DD) and now...this.

New foster dog puppy who was extremely withdrawn for 3 days and has finally (thankfully, I was starting to really worry) succumbed to the lure of the pretty young lab and is exploring rather than cowering in a corner.

So at the moment and for the last few days I've been wearing a variation of (he's not anywhere near house trained)

Fleece lined leggings
Charity shop jumpers
A worried expression - model's own

I've read these threads for years but not had the guts to join! Anyway here it goes. Love seeing what everyone is wearing. My budget is very much high street but today I actually applied make up and wore something better than my usual slob clothes!

Shirt & jeggings Asda
Coat asos
Trainers Nike
Bag asos

I will try something more adventurous tomorrow too!

Thank you @EllaPaella 🙂
Welcome @Raaraaboonah I love the Poncho on you!
Loving the hair @Megan1992xx

Also, more lovely finds in supermarkets and charity shops 👍

Megan1992xx · 18/11/2021 17:58

Awwww thanks hun:)

Sooverthemill · 18/11/2021 19:37

@stylemebetter looking great! We all wear a mix of stuff, all ages and budgets here. Some very canny charity shop shoppers too?
@Shannith that sucks. We used to foster dogs. I miss that

stylemebetter · 18/11/2021 19:49

@Sooverthemill thank you, that's handy as I'm poor and old haha, but the main thing is happy. I do also love a charity shop bargain, I purchased a brand new Christmas jumper from our local one but my dd has stolen it and made it into a Christmas dress!

EllaPaella · 18/11/2021 20:08

@Shannith cute doggo.. what a lovely thing to do fostering a dog. Must be lovely to eventually see them becoming less timid and gain confidence. Lovely looking Labrador too!
@stylemebetter welcome, looking good. Love your long coat. My best charity shop find this year was a long charcoal grey Calvin Klein Wool coat, absolutely amazing.
@Megan1992xx lovely hair, you are very pretty.

I am umming and ahhing (?) about what to wear to a surprise 50th party tomorrow. It's just at a local restaurant and quite an early start so probably nothing too dressy. I was hoping my Desigual dress would have arrived but sadly it seems to be stuck somewhere with DHL, lost in transit.

@Shannith I love your cushions with the dog and the owls! And your dogs are gorgeous Smile

Thanks for tagging me @Ellapaella. I still check in regularly and I do photograph my outfits, just don't seem to get round to posting, which is silly! DS has been quite poorly with some kind of infection the past couple of weeks so that's been a bit stressful, but he seems to have picked up again now, fortunately.

I'm in dungarees today, but haven't taken a picture, but here's some of my recent efforts!

Remembrance Sunday -

Dress - unbranded, it's from a warehouse place near my Mum and Dad.
Belt - ASOS
Boots - Fairfax & Favor

Other random days -

Suede look leggings - French Connection
Jumper - InWear (it has flared sleeves but you can't see them)
Coat - Zara
Boots - DMs

Brown knitted jumper - ASOS
Jeans - Topshop
Boots - DMs
Belt - don't know brand, I bought it from a stall at a County show years ago.

I've been bad and have a few packages set to be delivered soon. In Christmas shopping for other people I've basically just found loads of things that I want for myself... 🙈 I've been selling loads on eBay so had some extra pennies to play with. At this point I think I have about 4 outfits that I've earmarked for my one office Christmas party, so I'll probably be sending a few bits back. The one thing I'm extremely excited about is this Cos bag, because apparently I'm a completely ridiculous human being - www.cosstores.com/en_gbp/women/accessories/bags/product.oversized-faux-fur-clutch-yellow.1018808001.html?gclid=Cj0KCQiAkNiMBhCxARIsAIDDKNUzbeNO8yB7iHqf8IVKtPimDPQQ39HKabOp-EohP_AWYy7Tx8vwq94aAjB4EALw_wcB (sorry, I never know how to do links on Mumsnet). I showed it to DH and I'm pretty sure he thinks I'm having some kind of episode.

Anyway, I'm off to catch up with the thread now! Hope everyone is doing well. Your new foster pip is absolutely gorgeous @Shannith. Smile
