@toastfiend lucky DS indeed. My first pony (it was my friends but we essentially shared it) was an unsaintly fat black Shetland. He used to stop and eat grass mid pretty much mid everything so I mostly remember sliding off over his head a lot. Loved him. He next one which I also nicked was a welshy who perfected drop and spin. So sliding out the side door this time.

It's an eternal mystery as to why I'm so obsessed with animals that mostly try to bury me!

Sorry - we come back into S&B and turn it into Horse and Hound.

I have just spent this evening cleaning a small Visconti leather rucksack that I picked up in a charity shop for £3 this week.

Of course I used saddle soap - so kind of Style and Horsey if you will.

Forgot to take a pic earlier, so here is a pic of PurplecatDog Junior settling in to life in Scotland (he was rescued from Malaga), snoozing in his jammies.

Oh @Purplecatshopaholic what a beautiful dog 💕

toucaninjapan · 28/10/2022 07:02

Omg you look like some Hollywood superstar @EnoBaby ! And your daughter rocks her outfit and hairstyle 🥰

@QuietNeighbour that's some gorgeous outfit!

2 looks from me today, one for WFH (first time wearing my winter loungewear, had to show it to somebody since DH doesn't appreciate it!) and one for the nursery run with the baby carrier.

WFH outfit is from Narue/ Laduree, and the 2nd one is H&M and Uniqlo. Loving my wool & cashmere blend cap from Uniqlo!

@toucaninjapan I’m a fan of loungewear too with lots of eye rolling from DH when I change into it from about 4pm 😁

Jeans from FatFace (I’ve gone off skinnies really but they’re comfy, so…)
Light knit jumper from Mint Velvet
Boots same as yesterday - Moshulu

Debated with myself over a French tuck and opted for comfort over style.

I’m going to be wearing this skirt so often! Love it and thank you for the appreciation. It’s an investment buy for me using eBay sales money . Wish I was 6 inches taller like the model. Remind me of the rising skirts Laura Ashley sold in the 70s

shirt: Sézane
skirt: me and em
ahoes: R&B

Bloody autocorrect! RIDING skirts

faffadoodledo · 28/10/2022 09:08

So funny @Sooverthemill but I'd assumed you were tall! Am wondering now if that skirt would suit my 5'9 frame...

@Purplecatshopaholic I wanted to ask about the new dog but was anxious in case something had gone wrong! So beautiful and thank you for rescuing a dog in need

adding a photo of our elderly chap who had his 14th birthday yesterday. Despite vet giving him perhaps 2 more months in May and too many to say scary moments in the last 2 years? I love this boy. And one of the younger who didn't know what to do with (dog) birthday cake so took it to bed until he worked it out ( snaffled by the cats)

I'm 5' 1!

OublietteBravo · 28/10/2022 10:16

I love the skirt @Sooverthemill. I sometimes wonder about getting long skirts taken up slightly, but I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m just too lazy to bother!

I’m WFH today as no one else from my group is due to be in the office. Still strangely warm for the U.K. in late October.

Shirt: Boden
Trousers: M&S
Trainers: Moda in Pelle

EnoBaby · 28/10/2022 10:41

I'd also thought you were tall @Sooverthemill! We're the same height but I'm rubbish at photos so it's obvious I'm short.

Softpebbles · 28/10/2022 12:01

Some lovely outfits!

I’ve spent the week in joggers - cheers Covid <again> 😫

toucaninjapan · 28/10/2022 13:06

Just look at this latest bit of Japanese fashion aimed at my age category. Could totally see myself wearing that (not) lol!

Hang in there @Softpebbles ! Flowers

EnoBaby · 28/10/2022 13:09

Aw, no @Softpebbles! Hope you're better soon.

The DM loafers arrived yesterday but only had chance to open them this morning.

I really like them - will wear with skirts/shorter dresses a lot.

Here they are with one of my animal print sweaters and boyfriend jeans - won't actually wear them with this outfit but wanted to try on.

I'm in work today but out for dinner tonight.

Dress - Monki
Tights - M&S

@toastfiend thanks! And may I say, it's lovely to see you back on the thread, I love your style - agree with @faffadoodledo that it's great to also see @Shannith and @WestrayWife back too.

Gorgeous picture @EnoBaby, you and your DD look fab. @toucaninjapan love the loungewear!

Still on my work trip but everyone tends to dress down a bit on the Friday part of these trips.

Jumper: Zara
Skirt: Oliver Bonas
Boots: H&M

EnoBaby · 28/10/2022 13:22

I've just seen your lovely compliment @toucaninjapan - thank you! ☺️ You've actually made my day because, when I realised I'd not scratched out my own face before posting, all I could see was my Jimmy Hill chin.

As for baby EnoBaby's hair - bunches like that seem to bring out the devilish charmer in her. She actually asked a family if we could push in front of them whilst queuing for a lazy river ride yesterday evening! They looked quite non-plussed so I apologised profusely but did find it hilarious.

She is actually the inspiration behind my username as, during the new born hair loss stage, she morphed into a 'Before and After Science'-era Brian Eno for a week or so 🤣

toucaninjapan · 28/10/2022 13:40

@EnoBaby ahaha what a cutie! I'd have found that hilarious too Grin
Newborn hair loss/change stage is really something, mine was born with (almost) black hair, then it suddenly turned grey, and now she has exactly the same strawberry blonde as me! It's crazy! Some people think I've dyed her hair lol (some people dye hair of their babies and toddlers to make it look blonde or brown, which was one of the biggest cultural shocks to me honestly)

Shannith · 28/10/2022 17:58

I'll comment in a bit but while I remember

Not that you can really see! I'll try to remember to take a picture when I get home.

Jumper - meandem
Long gilet thingy - rinascimental
With - topshop boyfriend jeans
Dickin's and Jones boots

I love all your skirt and sweater combos @Cardigansalltheway!

Sickoffamilydrama · 28/10/2022 23:01

Meant to say the other day your comment about my leather blazer @toastfiend made my day, I was feeling really annoyed at myself that I haven't been doing any cardio to get my waist down, so can't wear everything I want to I'm looking at you satin skirt so thank you.

I did find it weird/ hard to wear at first as it is a loser style than I was used to but now I wear it a lot.

Blazer Mint Velvet
Dress Boden
Belt Sainsburys

Wore it with chunky boots

Omg what a dingy morning and thus a dingy photo! Today I have so much to do, DH away ( Bob Dylan concert with eldest two, gift from me) and hope to get my wardrobe sorted out with replacement rail up and a pile of clothes to sell. I have my eye on something and need to make at least £130 before I can buy!
the loafers came and I LOVE them but these also slip off my heels. Any ideas? Is it my feet? This is why I so often wear backless shoes. I do have narrow feet
Also I bought a pair of gazelles off vinted and am now terrified they won’t come. Vinted scares me.
shirt: Sézane first wear but bought pre my covid
jeans: hush
shoes: converse ( I’ve had these a few years, got preloved but this year I’ve worn much more than ever for some reason, not bad for £7.50)
