Thanks for the thread @EllaPaella I'm just here to see how the cool kids dress and hope some of the style makes its way to me 😂

Softpebbles · 30/09/2022 10:17

Ha ha @AlwaysFoldingWashing don’t follow me then as I’m 💯 not cool 😆

Good to hear fellow anti v Neckers. It’s true that bigger chunkier v necks feel better on me.

Hope you and DD are ok @Sooverthemill

Chill day - to be fair most of my days are lately!!

Levis and st Berts sweater.

@toucaninjapan awwww! Your lovely you are😊
I bet that was exciting though, waiting and wondering to see what your house would look like in reality and I bet that bookshelf looks sooo pretty, Witchcore is super lovely and enchanting!
I'll have to get some pics of the otherside of my workshop it's very busy to say the least(if a bit messy, lots and lots of fabrics, lace and made items) although I love painting furniture so there is lots of bits of furniture in there which I bought dirt cheap(one of my dressers cost me £5 no joke) and pretty'd up myself! My dh has made some bits of furniture also out of old bits of wood and drawers we found in one of the lofts when we moved in, so I'm quite thrifty with regards to furniture especially when i know exactly what i want, it drives dh bonkers sometimes because im like a dog with a bone once I've got an idea in my head! Also I love the cardigan the colour is gorgeous it would look lovely with your floral dress from the last post and oh so cute with your dungarees aswell, and totally go back and get the sweatshirt in the blue and beige, its a must, you need it(that's always my excuse)😉😁

MargotLB · 30/09/2022 11:17

That’s a gorgeous colour of green @Softpebbles

I am most definitely not one of the cool kids 😊 @AlwaysFoldingWashing

Did the winter/summer clothing swap yesterday, the polo necks and Autumn colours are on. Bought this outfit last year Autumn and love the slight 70s vibe!

@EllaPaella I'm loving the threads (pun intended)😁
@Softpebbles hope all is going well with your recovery
@Sooverthemill hope you are all ok and will soon be on the mend

No pics today I'm not feeling to great myself so am pottering about instead trying to get things done!( not really getting anywhere)
Don't you just hate it when you know you've got loads to do but can't seem to bring yourself to get up to do them🥴

toucaninjapan · 30/09/2022 12:15

@Puddinandpie yay, looking forward to those workshop pics!
As for the "well-mannered." tops, I might be too embarrassed to wear them haha! I love how they put that little dot at the end of the word. Makes it all look a bit intimidating!

May I ask whether anyone owns knitwear made with raccoon or fox wool? What is it like? Is it warm, what about pilling?
I knew about raccoon wool, but just discovered that that fluffy and soft like a dream cardigan I was trying on today is actually 90% fox wool! I've googled and it looks like they use naturally shredded wool here, so it's cruelty-free. Didn't know you could wear a jumper made with actual fox wool!
It makes me even more tempted to buy that cardigan now. Maybe I should go for a more neutral shade than pink...

Sooverthemill and EllaPaella oh great! I am an avid second hand clothes buyer but no one around me is. I love seeing what people get and how they style items. I’m new here so thanks for replying. Unfortunately the weekdays for me are very boring, a uniform then straight home to pyjamas at the minute!

Me too! Weekdays are mostly spent in scrubs. I like to put my PJ's on the moment I get home Grin

Someone should invent Labrador wool. My black lab sheds enough fur to make another 10 dogs 🐕

I love your Levis!!! Which style are they?? I've been looking for the perfect boyfriend fit

WestrayWife · 30/09/2022 23:01

Checking in on the new thread - thanks @EllaPaella

toucaninjapan · 01/10/2022 06:57

@EllaPaella love that jumper of yours! Where is it from?

@Sunsea21 very stylish outfits!

No news from management or HR on Friday which I've been looking forward to. Neither about me nor anybody else being chosen for the role I was trying to get. I guess I'll have to wait until Monday when HR will upload their internal transfer announcement online, however since I wasn't told anything on Friday, I guess I'm not going anywhere?..

I ended up purchasing that fox yarn cardigan! Couldn't resist it. People say there's not a lot of pilling with fox yarn and it's incredibly warm. I snatched the last piece from the store, and the lady who sold it to me said that these were gone in an instant, apparently fox and raccoon knitwear is rare, but extremely popular!

@Sunsea21 I love all your outfits

I haven’t fully embraced autumn clothes yet, it’s still around 16 degrees around here (and warmer next week). Been a bit bored with my outfits lately, I end up with jeans and a top/light knit. When the weather turns, I’ll be getting out tights and boots to wear with winter dresses.

EllaPaella · 01/10/2022 11:07

@toucaninjapan it's Vero Moda but from last winter. Today I am slobbing in jeans and a sweater (Ballon jeans M&S, Ripcurl sweater and Hoff trainers) but we are going out tonight so a chance to wear something a bit more dressy.
Beautiful day here, mild and sunny. The sea is flat and my ddog is allowed back on my favourite beach today (dog ban over) so looking forward to taking her for a lovely swim this afternoon.
Hope you all have lovely weekend plans.
Hope all is ok in the Soover household Flowers

Lovely colour sweaters @Softpebbles and @EllaPaella . Another one having a slobbing about home day, but out for lunch tomorrow so trying to think of something to wear that isn't jumper and jeans.

Jumper: Hush
Jeans: M&S

@PalacePaper if you're worried about your washing machine hand dying is dead easy. It's just a bucket or bathtub with water and dye, then as many clothes as you can find to dye, leave for the required time then rinse and dry. Nothing happens to the dye that's in the bucket so if your clothes that need dying don't all fit in at once you can do them in batches using the same dye water.

Geewhizzr · 01/10/2022 13:47

Yes ! Vinted haul
A little black and rust ditsy dress. Rust tights . Black doc like boots . Bright lips.
Am.v pale redhead. If i dont wear colour i look ill. Autumn is very hard clothes wise as i look not great inngrey black or any dark colour at all .

PalacePaper · 01/10/2022 16:15

@MargotLB I definitely agree on trusting your instincts when deciding what to wear - I enjoy thinking about what I like to wear and think suits my style rather than what's fashionable or 'should' suit my shape.

@Traceyfudge77 @IndianSummer78 thank you so much for the tips on dying jeans. I'm going to give it a go.

@toucaninjapan I absolutely love the pink cardigan, it's a beautiful colour and if it was the last one it was meant to be yours! I've never heard of fox or raccoon wool, look forward to hearing how it wears.

Yesterday I was at a spa so wore comfies from sweaty Betty and an M&S thermal top underneath. Today skirt is warehouse and jumper M&S. Plus sheepskin slipper boots indoors to keep my feet toasty, changed into proper boots to go out 😊
