@Puddinandpie unfortunately my clothing choices on the weekdays are dictated by the baby carrier, can’t wear any nice knitwear, can’t tuck tops in the trousers (alas!), can’t wear belts (which is especially annoying as some of my jeans are a bit too big and I need to constantly pull them up). :(

Love that rich burgundy color @Sooverthemill . Bree is really pretty. Btw Diego is 100% merino wool and I think it looks a bit like Bree, did you ever try it on? Current orange/red shade looks fantastic.

I'm jealous of your haul scores @Shannith ! And you are really beautiful. Flowers

I had annual health checkup today, so had to go into the office as our designated clinic is in the same building as our office. My latest stats were all from 2 years ago, when I was about 10 weeks pregnant, and it looks like I have put on about half a stone since then. Feeling quite upset about it, I could always try more, but I didn’t, and here’s the result.
I know my intake of sugary drinks these past months must be the root of the problem, so that’s where I should probably start making changes.
The weather is lovely today (but really chilly), so here’s a view from our office overlooking Tokyo tower and Fuji mountain (don’t know if you can see it, it’s to the right from the tower).
Jumper - Kiel James Patrick
Belt - Sezane
Jeans - Uniqlo

When it comes to Sezane, I believe we often like the same things @Sooverthemill .
I've been watching this shirt that I think you have, and considering purchasing it, it was full stock, all sizes available, and now suddenly it's gone from the website! I'm so pissed about it. Sometimes you really need to grab that thing you like before it's gone!

This month I had to make some unexpected purchases to get my work wardrobe in check, which accounts to quite a lot😬😩, but if I've counted it correctly, I should comfortably cover all the expenses with my overtime pay this month and with the travel allowance coming up. 😮‍💨

Welcome back @Shannith ! Wish we had charity shops like yours ( even a tenth as good would do)
@toucaninjapan i have the cru Diego from last year. It's so soft. Have contemplated the new colour one
the embroidered tomboy is available in all sizes on the uk site maybe change your location to uk and put in basket then go back to your usual location?

Purplecatshopaholic · 26/10/2022 08:41

Into my office today. Starting a new job in a few weeks so sad to leave but really excited at the same time. Similar role but bigger organisation. Today it’s a Karen Millen dress and boots from Stuart Weitzman boots

Purplecatshopaholic · 26/10/2022 08:46

Well if @Shannith is getting back to posting again I suppose I should do the same. Love that green parka in particular.

Today I'm in smart mode for work. It's minging here today - blowing a hooley and horizontal rain.

Blazer - Harris Tweed
Merino Knit under - M&S
Trousers - Boden
Boots - Sainsburys (not waterproof so I have soggy toes)

Can't attach a pic for some reason but will try again later.

OublietteBravo · 26/10/2022 09:34

Welcome back @Shannith and @WestrayWife.

I’m about to head to the airport. It feels odd to be wearing jeans again.

Top & jeans - both M&S
Sandals - Next

My charity shops are so great. I'm very lucky.

Walking the dog so not the height of fashion.

I would like to share my new and comfy Solovair boots with you all. I wore them on a dog walk first thing but plan to wear them with dresses and skirts through the winter. Another of the S&B threads mentioned them - made in Northampton by the company that used to make DMs before they shipped manufacturing to the Far East.
Excuse the grubby trackies...

Super comfy and comfy and Solovair boots.
They are spenny but as my son put it so beautifully, 'They'll probably outlast you, Mum'

5 y-o has asked me to show you all his new White Company outfit! 🥰

I'm twinning his overall vibes with my Hush ones, an old Topshop sweater and DMs.

Brilliant finds @Shannith!

A v late post today, busy day generally but also getting ready for a quick overseas work trip at the crack of dawn tomorrow.

I'm used to wearing a looser trouser nowadays so these feel quite odd to wear - but super handy for tucking into wellies for dog walking so no need for the multiple trouser changes that are often required for this time of year.

Jumper: Zara
Trousers: Uniqlo
Boots: H&M

Hi all! (I always feel like Jim from Friday Night Dinner when I write that... 😂)

Fell off the thread again, things with the house move are super stressful so I'm resorting to joggers and boring outfits most days, basically dressing for what feels like the mental equivalent of repeatedly slamming my head against a brick wall with our buyers and their solicitors. 😬 My "favourite" bit this week was when THEY suggested a completion date, which we and our vendors responded to immediately, followed by the buyers' solicitors coming back (bizarrely quite indignantly) less than 24hrs later because they actually weren't ready and there were some fundamental - and basic, should have been done at the outset - items outstanding. Why they even suggested a date, bearing this in mind, I have no idea, unless I'm actually part of some live psychological experiment and this is all part of their plan to fuck with me. 🤷‍♀️

Aaaaaanyway, on the rare occasion I've dressed "properly" I have photographed it, and I'm keen to retreat to this little corner of sanity and niceness and talking about clothes, so I'll try to make more of an effort to join in again.

I hope you and your DD are recovered from Covid now @Sooverthemill, I saw you were poorly on the tail end of the last thread. I love your shirt today.

@toucaninjapan I understand the annoyance, but I think you look great, and I love your jumper.

Nice to see you both again, too, @Shannith and @WestrayWife.

I love that leather blazer on you @Sickoffamilydrama. I actually bought one from Zara, inspired by you, but I don't seem to be able to style it like you can, it really suits you.

Your 5 year old's outfit is excellent, @EnoBaby, and I like your Hush dungarees, too.

Love those boots @faffadoodledo.

Hope you're having an amazing holiday @OublietteBravo, I loved Cyprus when we went there to visit a friend.

Great dress @Purplecatshopaholic.

Few recent outfits from me.

Floral skirt - Sezane, via eBay
Pink jumper - Cos
Belt - Ferragamo (probably older than me, my DM gave it to me as no longer fits her)
Boots - Mint Velvet

Cream jumper - Sezane, Vinted bargain
Checked trousers - Cos
Belt - Fairfax and Favor
Boots - Missguided (not the best look with the trousers but I went to London on the day with the apocalyptic storms at the weekend and wore them to keep my trousers out of the puddles - then got stuck on the way home because a tree came down over the train line).

White sweater- Hush
Check skirt - Primark
Boots - DMs

Green coat- Topshop, via a preloved shop
Faux leather leggings - Yu + Me
Jumper - Sezane, another Vinted bargain (I've not had Sezane before but always loved the look so when a few bargains came up on Vinted recently I've snapped them up after selling a load of old toys etc. in preparation for our move).

Apparently Mumsnet is allowing up to 5 photos now, realised I never mention or show any jewellery I wear, so here are the earrings I am pretty much always wearing.

Huggies- Ophelia
Daith - White Bear

I also wear a load of bracelets most of the time, but you can generally see those in photos.

A repeat of an outfit from a couple of weeks ago for my work trip. I've learnt my lesson from that and am sat at the airport in my comfy H&M boots - the heels will come back on once I'm in the office. Jacket, top, trousers and boots all Zara.

So nice to see some of the ladies who originally inspired me to get onto this thread (and make a bit more effort) back and posting.

Sooverthemill · 27/10/2022 09:01

So good to see people
back! @Shannith and @WestrayWife I missed you both

wearing two new things today
top: knitted by me
skirt: me + em ( couldn’t resist this)
shoes: R&B

question: comfortable chunky loafers? I’ve tried Grenson ( too chunky) and have returned the Boden ones I wore the other day, after 10
minutes I knew they wouldn’t be comfortable and I’d only worn on carpet. Need to be brown or black and truly comfortable. I have small narrow feet!

@faffadoodledo solo air monkey boots were all the rage when I was at university in the 70s! They have such a good reputation

Sooverthemill · 27/10/2022 09:07

And @toastfiend ! I almost messaged you yesterday but life took over. Sorry the move is stressful. It's what puts me off listing our house.you've picked some great Sézane pieces too. Everything looks great on you. Wish I wasn't a shortarse
