Well we're off. Ds has been in bed all week with a non covid feverish illness. Dh and I have avoided it so far. Off to see db, dsil and dear niece then a couple of days in the capital. Hope you had a lovely evening @intwrferingma. Love the velvet suit. Great hand knit @Sooverthemill. Beautiful beach photo @missfliss. Yesterday dress white stuff, cardigan monsoon. In casuals today. May manage a photo at Db's house.

@missfliss you can not beat the feeling of a morning in neoprene!

I just found this thread and was going to join...I need to spend a lot of time scrolling through as I'm going to be stealing lots of style tips from here...

Here is me today, about to fly solo with my two toddlers, I was aiming for stylish yet practical 🤷‍♀️😂

Dungarees - lidl
Top - H&M
Coat - mint velvet
Shoes - veja
Bag - Marc Jacobs

Also, am I too old for denim dungarees?

stylemeup · 01/04/2022 12:08

@EllaPaella those cos trousers are fabulous on you! Buy them in every colour!

Sooverthemill · 01/04/2022 14:44

@stylemeup you are never too old for anything except tantrums...

EllaPaella · 01/04/2022 19:41

Thank you @IvorCutler 😊

@stylemeup love the dungarees and agree with @Sooverthemill 100% you are never too old for anything (except as she says, tantrums, so glad those days are behind me 😬)
@missfliss So jealous! I haven't had a sea swim since the glorious weather last weekend but I'll be going tomorrow morning and can't wait. Which part of the UK are you?

EllaPaella · 01/04/2022 19:42

Also @stylemeup I never knew Lidl did clothes! Will have to investigate

@EllaPaella - I'm in West Sussex in a seaside town near Brighton.
I sea swim most days super early before work - it's my 'fun' before adulting each day!

Yesterday I managed to nab a lunchtime dip and out of the wind it was lovely!!

Where are you?

missfliss · 01/04/2022 20:37

@stylemeup - I love that outfit. It wouldn't suit me but it really looks lovely on you. Those dungarees are great - big tick from me!

EllaPaella · 01/04/2022 21:32

@missfliss NE coast of Newcastle upon Tyne. This pic is from a few Sundays ago. Glorious. I started sea swimming last summer and just decided to keep going as long as possible (in just a costume) and here I am in April having gone several times a week all through winter! The health benefits have been immense.

No day time outfit as I forgot to take a pic 🤦‍♀️ at a work event but no customers here so a bit more relaxed, just recharging my batteries before going back to the party switching to flatter shoes for dancing!

Dress Holston
Shoes ancient Next
Bag Topshop

missfliss · 02/04/2022 07:56

Aah fantastic Ella!
Lovely pics - slightly jealous of a sandy beach too.
I started sea swimming in Nov 20 - it's truly become a huge part of my life. It's given me so much including some new local friends :-)
I've been in nearly daily since last summer - there are two other girls I swim with most mornings and we've been up early even in the dark and swimming when we can each morning at about 6:30. Obviously there have been some days when it's not safe to go.
All evidenced health benefits aside I've also noticed that my annual winter SAD has not been as present this year too!

It's a wonderful life affirming thing isn't it? X

Sooverthemill · 02/04/2022 08:45

@Sickoffamilydrama you look amazing!
It’s my birthday today and I am as old as the Beatles song which is a bit of a shock. So I’m wearing white jeans and I don’t care if the dogs make them grubby. Jumper as it’s bloody cold ( but of snow overnight) but also showing a new blouse from Sézane which is another treat to myself

@Sooverthemill despite swearing off them completely.....multiple times.....I've just put in a Sézane order. I will report back once received. Assuming it is received that is Hmm

Softpebbles · 02/04/2022 19:10

@Sooverthemill Happy Birthday 🥳 I hope that you’ve had a lovely day and are enjoying a lovely meal.

No outfit for me but I spent the morning in neoprene and afternoon in jeans, Reiss shirt and new balance 373’s! Now in my pjs!

I hope you had a great night @Sickoffamilydrama. You looked great.

@WestrayWife enjoy your freedom!

Sickoffamilydrama · 02/04/2022 19:24

Happy Birthday 🎉 @Sooverthemill

No photo as got caught in a massive snow storm so now all wrapped up.

EllaPaella · 02/04/2022 19:24

Happy birthday @Sooverthemill - love the Sezane blouse. I hope you have had a nice day.

@WestrayWife woohoo! Freedom day! Looking good, I love your Hush cardi.
@Sickoffamilydrama you look very glam last night- hope you enjoyed it.
I am off on a night out now.. just waiting for a metro and have seen all sorts so far.. it's entertainment that's for sure Hmm
Was way too cold for a dress. Coated jeans, blouse and chunky boots for me. With the Wallis coat.
