@Justonedayatatime11 oh god, huge sympathy for wheelchair pushing , it's why I have such toned arms! Is DD okay?

Kione · 18/01/2022 09:22

@Purplecatshopaholic

Helllo everyone Smile. Thanks for a shiny new 2022 thread *@EllaPaella. Loving your outfits @toastfiend. And your jammies @WestrayWife and @itssquidstella*. Out with PurplecatDog earlier - golly it’s cold! Forbidden Tribes dress and boots from EMP.
OMg where are your boots from? I had some similar ones years ago and been looking for them!

Love your complete style btw

Kione · 18/01/2022 09:23

Ok sorry just saw the boots are from EMP, never heard but will check online!

Justonedayatatime11 · 18/01/2022 09:25

@Sooverthemill we've spent the past 6 years fighting for her feet to be corrected as she's been a tiptoe walker all her life. She now can't put her feet flat on the ground. The hospital finally put both legs in casts last week which will hopefully correct them, otherwise it's surgery. So shoving the wheelchair up the slope to school is my new daily workout! Hope your DD is doing ok Thanks

Softpebbles · 18/01/2022 10:08

@Justonedayatatime11 I hope it works out for you

Yay on a full nights sleep @Sooverthemill

It’s so cold here today! Dressed for comfort.

@Justonedayatatime11

Brr, it's absolutely freezing here today! Pushing DD to school in her temporary wheelchair on icy pavements was fun Hmm Dress Topshop via Vinted Boots Fairfax and Favor
That sounds so tough ❤️.

Your dress is lovely.

UrbanMage · 18/01/2022 11:14

I'm only leaving the house for school runs today so I'm wearing leopard print leggings from Tesco and a John Lewis (very old and bobbly) striped jumper that clashes beautifully. And sparkly socks and my snorlax slippers. No make up. I look a treat.

toastfiend · 18/01/2022 12:10

I've missed a few days again!

Nice to see you back @Shannith, great bargains, as ever, those trainers are awesome! I'm also blaming you for why I'm watching a million Me+Em items on eBay now, as you looked so great in your purchases on the last thread!

Hope the casts work and your DD is better soon @Justonedayatatime11, sounds like hard going for you all. Love the denim dress and boots combo.

I'm very much dressed for warmth today -

Trousers - Lucy & Yak, they're basically pyjamas as they're brushed cotton, but so warm and cosy and I'm kidding myself thay the belt elevates them to non-pyjama wear... 😂
Belt - Lucy & Yak
Boots - Mint Velvet via eBay
Knitted hoodie - M&S

Yesterday DS' nursery was shut so we went and did one of the National Trust Percy the Park Keeper trails. It was lots of fun, but called for practical dressing!

Jeans - Agolde
Jumper - M&S

Worn with DMs and my Cos long-line puffer coat.

Went shopping with a friend at the weekend -

Dress - Hush via eBay
Belt - ASOS
Boots - Mint Velvet

Inspired by the thread this week on Miss Sixty I've dug out one of my all time favourite coats. It doesn't get much wear anymore but I know I will never, ever get rid off it. It was bought mid/late 00's and on my graduate salary at that point was the most expensive thing I owned! I even traveled over an hour to another city especially to buy it...the days before online shopping!

Coat : Killah by Miss Sixty
Sock Boots : Camper
Tights : M&S

Skirt : Boden
Shirt : Superdry

I can relate - I have a pair of Miss Sixty jeans from the early 00s that I would never stand a chance of getting into now. I loved them soooooo much! I've kept them just in case. I could never though them out.
EnoBaby · 18/01/2022 18:04

Love that cardigan @Sooverthemill
Ditto the checked trousers @toastfiend - I’m insatiable for the tartan!
The bib cut of those dungarees is perfect @spidersenses

Today’s effort left me feeling a bit dowdy as the day wore on… possibly the untucked shirt.

Shirt - old &otherstories
Vest under - French Connection
Trousers - M&S (current sale)
Trainers - Superga 2730s

Purplecatshopaholic · 18/01/2022 18:46

Nightmare time at work since coming back from festive break - so short of staff - I need another holiday, lol. Slip dress from All Saints with knit Forbidden Tribes dress over the top. Boots from Rosamund Muir

Dress white stuff. Cardigan Hobbs.

OublietteBravo · 18/01/2022 19:49

This week I seem to be working through my culottes. I probably have enough for 5 days worth of outfits Blush

Tank top: Gap (pretty sure this is older than DS who turns 16 in February)
Blouse: M&S
Culottes: White Stuff
Boots: Doc Martens

Sickoffamilydrama · 18/01/2022 19:50

Another item that I think should go in my ummmm pile it's itchy without anything underneath but has a dipped back so nothing looks right. It's also to cold has lose flappy arms to just wear a vest.

Jumper & other stories
Jeans Next

Picture of my not very good but definitely improving knitting for @Sooverthemill

Sorry about you DD @Justonedayatatime11

@WestrayWife that coat is fire!

I loved, loved, loved miss sixty. I had the most fantastic low rise tight flared jeans that I wore with 3 inch high pointy snakeskin boots. Happy days! I had loads of bits. Only thing left is a belt I think. I'll dig it out for tomorrow.

Cardigan - Vila from tk maxx
T-shirt - H&M

I’ve never heard of MissSixty! Clearly missed out
Watched a bit of a video ‘purchases I regret in 2021’ ( while waiting to do yoga) and it reminded me of this shirt high I love but is hard to style so I’m
Making a big effort to wear it over the next week or sell it on. it’s soft and comfy but not the easiest colour. Will read back later

Comfort is the order of the day for me today, feeling really ropey and was a bit concerned as Covid is doing the rounds at DS' nursery, but I've had negative lfts yesterday and today so hopefully just a cold. I wfh anyway so not posing a risk to anyone beyond my 4 walls regardless.

Dungarees - Lucy & Yak
Knitted hoodie - M&S
Boots - DMs

Welcome @bambi1132. Smile

I love that shirt @Sooverthemill.

Are those the Boudicas @Justonedayatatime11? They look great. Smile

My bonus present to myself arrived, which has cheered me up. I've been eyeing it up for a while but it's always out of stock, my size came up the other day so I jumped at it! I love it. It's described as being like grown up dressing up in the reviews, and that's exactly what it is! Had some fun trying it on with different outfits and I like that it can be dressed up or down. Smile It's a bit silly really but, like my purple boots, in a way that brings me joy to wear.

@Justonedayatatime11 ah, I've always been envious of your collection, I didn't realise you'd gotten rid of it. The Boudicas are really lovely, I keep eyeing them up! And thank you! The skirt is the Hush Floriza. Grin

Shannith · 19/01/2022 13:36

@bambi1132 post away! As you can see by my "outfit" today, which I wear most days it's still and outfit of the day love your cardigan - beautiful colour.

Ah @toastfiend that skirt brings me joy just looking at it. It's wonderful.

@Justonedayatatime11 that skirt and boots look great.

@Sooverthemill you do wear shirts well. I've got lards I never wear as I can never work out how to style them if not formal.

Maybe I'll do a shirt every day for a week, inspired by @Justonedayatatime11 and @OublietteBravo to see if I can get into a groove.

Riding today so I'm currently wearing

Gilet - pikur (found in a charity shop of course) normally ridden by proper dressage riders and now by me
Amazing leggings
Premier equine boots
Random sports top thing

Pony still full of beans (a polite way of saying batshit) but I didn't come off so Pony 0 me 1.
