Hope you are feeling better @Puddinandpie and I love your skirt and boots combos of today and yesterday, and loving your leopard boots as well @Purplecatshopaholic. @toucaninjapan love your black and grey shorts outfit, cute and stylish, and your hair looks fab!

Although I've had an office day, I'm back in one of my interchangeable between office and home outfits. Enough of heels for the time being! Still freezing here but really enjoying the brighter, longer days.

Jumper: Mango
Trousers: Zara
Boots: H&M

I find it bizarre that some people would give much headspace to the ordinary people’s ordinary outfits (unlike those of celebrities), however I was kinda sympathizing at first - hey, I’m not without sin too. When that girl in high school posted her photos in her underwear with knickers at least 2 sizes too small for her body which were cutting into her poor hips and bum, I did comment sth along the lines “Why are you wearing knickers which are clearly too small for you?” and “What are you aiming at with these photos?”. I feel embarrassed now remembering that I said that, but oh well, I was 15, she was talking to the guy I liked and I didn’t know better. Can’t imagine doing the same as a grown up woman though.
But cyber stalking is something else, it’s vile and wasn’t it a criminal offense? I hope you’ll find out who’s behind it @Sickoffamilydrama , as stalking usually comes from people who know you in real life. You come across as a successful and strong (and beautiful in many ways!) woman, and I can see how somebody could be jealous of that.

That being said, I’m feeling kinda glad that the people I have around me irl are neither Brits nor native English speakers (as I am also neither a Brit nor a native English speaker) and there’s a slim chance they’d come across Mumsnet (though it’s not like I’d be upset in any way if somebody I know irl saw my posts or photos - it’s not like there’s anything embarrassing in them). 🤷🏼‍♀️

@Sickoffamilydrama so sorry, I completely missed your post yesterday. I too hope that you find some resolution to this, and agree with everything @toucaninjapan has said. Really hope to see you back soon x

It’s another preloved for the win day.

@Sickoffamilydrama Hope you feel you can come back someday. It's not fair that someone else's bizarre behaviour has impacted on your life and fun here. Until then, we'll miss you and your outfits x

I understand why you’re taking a break @Sickoffamilydrama. We’ll miss you!

I’m WFH today as I just can’t face another day shivering in the office. I seem to have a miraculous meeting-free day, so I’m going to crack on with some actual work and see if I can get a couple of things completed.

Jumper: Jigsaw
Trousers: M&S
Boots: Matalan

Just noticed the thread is ‘early spring’!, Feels like deep midwinter here!
new too today from FWP by Rae. I’ve wanted one for ages and she sent out a 15%discount code so that decided me. I love her tops and this stripe matches my cord shirt exactly yay

stripe too: FWP by Rae
corduroy shirt: grace and mila
jeans: agolde

Never posted here before (despite finding these threads absolutely riveting), but felt moved to say how much I love your look and, also, the room in the background of your photograph.

The touille de joue (not at all spelling with confidence) wallpaper is especially gorgeous.

Right. That'll be me back to admiring silently for the next five years

Oops!
Meant to post the time of your post so you - and others - could see to what I was referring as it was quite a few days ago.
But forgot 🤦‍♀️

Anyway, as youve probably surmised, it was at 28/01/2023.

Arrghh!

I certainly know it should be "joie" not "joue".

It's weird: I have to keep one of my eyes shut at present post operatively and it's playing merry hell with my typing.
No depth perception, I suppose

Thanks all I will be back, I suspect that the two are unrelated as I work in a male dominated industry unfortunately I can be the target of derision but until I've got to the bottom of the RL stuff it would just put me under extra stress.

I really enjoy posting and see everyday women's clothes rather than high fashion so won't be gone long.

Sending support Sickoffamilydrama. You always look great

Take care of yourself @Sickoffamilydrama
And I love your tshirt! I have the same one 😉💪🏽

@Sooverthemill it does indeed feel like a very optimistic thread title, freezing here although another bright and beautiful day.

Dress: Zara
Boots: H&M

@Sickoffamilydrama I'm so sorry it's come to this and I will miss your lovely outfits, hope it all gets resolved and don't forget to stay fab!🥰 (psst! where can I get me one of those tshirts)

@LaMarschallin awwww! thank you so much, I am a total toile de jouy nut, I just love the pattern it's so romantic and pretty, my whole room is pretty much toile even the fabrics, curtains, cushions and bedspread but different variations of it! I hope you feel better soon sending get well💐😊
