Really early start after a really late night! DD now has a baby African Pygmy Hedgehog delivered very late by her brother and hisGF. Cue much joy. But at 8 our builder comes to do final work on her room so that she can be a bit more independent. Extremely bad planning by the supply chain crappies caused this to be delayed from November!
So all in a rush

@Sooverthemill we're going to need a picture of that baby hedgehog I'm afraid.... (hope today isn't too stressful for you all)

@Shannith loving your wafting vibes. 10/10.

MargotLB · 01/02/2022 08:06

@Shannith that dress is stunning on you - I love Margo hence the username Smile though she’s a good foot taller than me and a totally different shape but I loved her clothes, she always looked class!

Sooverthemill · 01/02/2022 08:35

@WestrayWife here you go! She is sooooo sweet. Nameless as yet, DD is resisting my excellent suggestion of 'snuffle pumpkin'.
@Shannith great dress

Well I have succumbed finally to covid after having successfully dodging the bullet for so long. Feel absolutely rotten do I am in old joggers and a thermal top trying to keep warm under a duvet on the sofa.
These lovely Topshop boots that I found on Vinted arrived today though which has cheered me up somewhat. Had my eye on them for ages and finally found a pair in my size - £7.

@EllaPaella sorry to hear that you have Covid. I hope you make a swift recovery. The paint is B and Q Monaco, I only painted the other week so thank you :)

@KiteflyingKitty I have ended up adding an unglamourous north face fleece as I was cold! Working from home too and I think comfort wins!

I have been quite naughty in January so may have to do no spend february, which is hard when I have my eyes on a cardigan from Cos and a dress that I saw in H and M!

EllaPaella · 01/02/2022 15:36

Links to cardigan and dress @Softpebbles? Indulge me as I am bored and in need of distraction that doesn't involve moving around!

This cardigan as it’s not wool or too chunky to wear under my coats etc. The one I have is really chunky and doesn’t really work. The dress I spotted in h and m and I can’t find on the website. It was a midi/maxi and really spring colours. I just thought it would look lovely with my high tops or Veja trainers. 🤦‍♀️

CaterpillaNavilla · 01/02/2022 16:35

Thanks @Shannith - although I feel more preppy potato than hot grunge these days! Fabulous wafty dress btw 😍

Work for the rest of the week so back to normal clothes for now sigh

Hi all - I'm be here but just had to share! I just bought a The Kooples navy leather jacket from local charity shop for £20 and its immaculate, looks hardly worn and fits perfectly. £150+ on eBay second hand and £700 on the Kooples website. I'm sooo chuffed!

I really wanted to wear the wafting dress today but it's not quite warm enough though I may stick a jumper over it.

More prosaic

Both tops hush
Jeans - j brand
Mac - banana republic

all recent charity bargains. Cost me £9 total. Best thing about Surrey.

@timestheyarechanging love it!! Charity shop bargains make me so happy. Wear it with joy.

@PalacePaper love the cardigan and also the socks Love a cheerful sock.

@EllaPaella oh no - hope you feel better soon. Those boots are fab. Stick them on with your dressing gown of doom and at least have happy feet.

@Softpebbles wozers that's a great top on you- oh to have your curves!

Justonedayatatime11 · 01/02/2022 21:07

@Shannith can I send you charity shop shopping for me please?!

EllaPaella · 01/02/2022 21:22

@Shannith dressing gown of doom. DH has one of those - it comes out whenever he has a virus and he likes to lie on the sofa in it and drink whiskey to 'sweat it out'  Love your charity shop buys. You and @timestheyarechanging obviously frequent the right haunts!

[quote Justonedayatatime11]@Shannith can I send you charity shop shopping for me please?! [/quote]
I'd be happy to! I really would. I do it for a couple of friends - I know their sizes and what they like and for my £1 and £2 jobbies doesn't matter if I make a mistake.

Purplecatshopaholic · 01/02/2022 21:46

Lovely dress @Shannith. Super cute hedgehog @Sooverthemill (now there’s a sentence I didn’t expect to say!) love the boots @EllaPaella, and get well soon. LBD today from Vivienne Westwood which you can’t see really, with baggy cardigan from EMP over the top as just been walking the dog. Boots from Hush.
