@toastfiend thanks - I had to wait for a few weeks for them to restock in that colour - totally worth it!

It must be a well made dress to feel secure without even tape 😂 if you really like it surely that’s reason enough to keep it?

EllaPaella · 22/11/2021 09:23

Well done @Sooverthemill - maybe time to put your feet up and have a rest if you can?
It's so cold! Temperature must have plummeted by at least 6° almost overnight this weekend.
Today Jeans and cardigan M&S (straight leg)
Top Vinted
Boots - Can't remember, online but forgotten name of store.
I could really do with getting my hair sorted, it needs a top up of balayage and a trim - it's very dry and straw like at the ends but it's going to have to wait until after Christmas now.

Today’s outfit - jumper from M&S, trousers from H&M and TOMS shoes. I’ve been pondering whether to take up the trousers and looking at this pic they definitely need it!

@Sickoffamilydrama you look amazing! Wear it if you feel comfortable

@EllaPaella yup it's a day off for me, knitting, final episode of the morning show and my audiobook. Hoping DD sleeps most of the day!

OublietteBravo · 22/11/2021 09:50

@Sickoffamilydrama - that dress really shows off your lovely legs.

I’m reluctantly WFH today. DD is waiting for a PCR test result, and I have a bit of a cold, so I thought it best to stay away from the office. It seems to have suddenly turned cold - I might have to add another layer.

Dress: Jigsaw
Boots: Celtic & Co

Dress - denim company

Nice outfit @CaterpillaNavilla - I think the trousers look good as they are 👌

Thanks @EllaPaella - they’re so long I’m getting flashbacks to the early noughties in them though - like they’re going to soak up water to the knees if it rains 😬

Softpebbles · 22/11/2021 11:32

@Sooverthemill glad that the bed went well. Sounds like you have a nice, well deserved day planned today.

@Sickoffamilydrama that dress really shows off your figure.

I nipped to put the rubbish out and it certainly is cold.

Good luck on the PCR results @OublietteBravo.

PalacePaper · 22/11/2021 13:26

I agree with everyone else @Sickoffamilydrama the dress looks fantastic on you!

I feel for you with the bed-building @Sooverthemill - it took us 2 weeks to build DD's cabin bed. When DS got one we paid a handyman to do it for us Grin

So cold today! I need some new cosy slippers for WFH.

Jeans - charity shop
Jumper - Uniqlo

So many great outfits since I last visited the thread. Such a stylish lot of women here 🙂

Here’s what I was wearing at the gym today and then after my shower. It was cold, so a long sleeve gym top was the way to go.
Top, sports bra and leggings by Sweaty Betty (Power). The leggings are a size too big because I’ve lost weight, but are still fine. Sports bras always make me all boobs at the top, hence no shape 🤷‍♀️
Green Jumper - Monsoon in the sale.
Pants (Gary) Sweaty Betty.
Running Shoes - Nike

@Purplecatshopaholic love your coat, jumpsuit and dog 🙂

CaterpillaNavilla · 22/11/2021 20:14

@AnnieSnap that green really suits you - you look fab

Purplecatshopaholic · 22/11/2021 20:24

Thanks @AnnieSnap - PurplecatDog is a bit of a mummy’s boy and never too far away, lol

AnnieSnap · 22/11/2021 20:25

Thank you @CaterpillaNavilla 😀

Sickoffamilydrama · 22/11/2021 20:43

Ditto from me to @Purplecatshopaholic you know I love a jumpsuit.

Thanks everyone for the kind words about the dress because of them I tried it today with different shapewear and I like it, pic to show the difference. I should bin the other ones as they just dig in, in all the wrong places.

Dress Monsoon
Cardigan Free people

@Sickoffamilydrama love that dress. Very tempted to look for something similar!

toastfiend · 22/11/2021 21:08

Love your coat (and your dog!) @Purplecatshopaholic.

Agree that that green really suits you @AnnieSnap. Also very impressed how glam you still manage to look at the gym. I always look terrible when I'm anywhere near a gym! 😂

I really like the colour and cut of your jumper @CaterpillaNavilla.

Love your outfit today @Sooverthemill, that jumper is lovely.

Absolutely freezing here, too. I've spent the day huddled by my portable radiator because I wfh and I'm too cheap to put the heating on much during the day... 😂 Pretty casual today as I've got a cold (not Covid) and I've been feeling pretty average all day. I've also lost my voice, but tbh I think that's probably a blessing to everyone around me.

Trousers - Anthropologie
Top - H&M
Cardigan - unbranded, from a warehouse place
Boots - DMs
Socks - goodness knows, I'm not entirely convinced that they're not DH's and have just found their way into my drawer, but they've kept my feet nice and warm, anyway.

Raaraaboonah · 22/11/2021 21:43

I’ve got a not Covid cold so feeling pretty crap.

Jeans - mint velvet slim leg
Sweatshirt - present from my brother
Shoes - New Balance

Loving seeing all the different outfits and giving me ideas of what I can change. Feeling very stuck in a rut!

AnnieSnap · 22/11/2021 21:45

Wow @Sickoffamilydrama You’ll be knocking someone’s socks off with the green dress 😍

Thank you @toastfiend, but me glam at the gym 😂🤣 Loving your luck today. You always look very pulled together. Great pants, with the grey cardigan and glimpse of grey socks.

Sickoffamilydrama · 22/11/2021 22:01

Thanks @AnnieSnap that's really kind. Typically DH said yeah it looks good very nochalantly...unless I have my boobs pushed up he's not really bothered, think he's spoilt as he used to having a wife that looks fabulous 🤣🤣🤣

AnnieSnap · 22/11/2021 22:33

@Sickoffamilydrama but he has one now who looks fabulous 🤷‍♀️

EllaPaella · 23/11/2021 07:25

@toastfiend looking stylish as ever, love those trousers. I am a huge fan of cosy socks this time of year as well, love a bit of sock poking out over boot Smile
