That green outfit is awesome @OublietteBravo. I have been working since early this morning as couldn’t sleep, so slobbing around in harem pants from Michael Kors and a top from EMP. My furry Uggs are getting worn, must look into a new pair. PurplecatDog Junior (the one who is not sick) is snoozing away, bless him. PurplecatDog Senior is sadly deteriorating - I know I have a difficult decision to make soon 😞. One of my cats is very ill too but is having specialist treatment at the Vet School here so I know he’s in the best hands. Losing much loved pets sucks - that is all.

@Purplecatshopaholic im so sorry. We had the conversation about old dog this morning. DD1 comes on 29 April and wondering if he will still be with us. I suspect he will but he is definitely deteriorating but given that a year ago we were warned he probably only had a couple of months he’s done well ( and is happy and pain fee). Incidentally. My old UGG slippers go to the hedgehogs to do unspeakable acts. They love them!

Sooverthemill · 21/04/2023 09:02

@OublietteBravo gorgeous

EllaPaella · 21/04/2023 10:24

@kingofchaos I love your latest dress 😍
Nice trousers @OublietteBravo
Everyone looking lovely as ever. It has been a particularly cold week up here, sunny but a biting wind on the coast 🥶
Let's hope it gets warmer soon, fed up of winter clothes.

faffadoodledo · 21/04/2023 15:00

I'd look like a giant banana in those trousers, @OublietteBravo. You though look lovely!

I'm off down to a food festival in our village in a minute. Quick pint and nosey around. Will add some trainers to the (ancient) Boden trousers and Celtic sweater

Very suave Mac @Cardigansalltheway !
Pretty dress @kingofchaos , it suits you and I love those trainers, lady!

Bless you @bendmeoverbackwards and @Fluffodils , that is very kind of you both.

I really like what you are wearing today @OublietteBravo, those trousers are a lovely style and colour.

More colour, I love your shoes @Purplecatshopaholic . Sorry to hear about your sick dogs. We had a phase where our dog needed tablets with every meal, DH went a bit Jamie Oliver and tried to hide the grounded tablet in every piece of meat. I don't think I've felt the same way about my mortar and pestle ever since. I hope that your dogs get better soon.

I like your trousers @faffadoodledo.

This was yesterday's outfit when the sun was out.

Linen Dress: H&M
Top: Levi's
Trainers: pumas (was going to change into shoes after driving, but then couldn't be bothered sadly)

I really like the dress @kingofchaos.

I thought I should try and wear something other than jeans.

Shirt/belt/trousers: all Boden
Trainers: Jigsaw

Love those jeans

Fluffodils · 21/04/2023 18:07

OublietteBravo · 21/04/2023 08:28

I hope your poorly pets get better soon @Purplecatshopaholic.

Back to rain - and my jeans-and-a-shirt uniform today. But I just want to show you my new M&S trousers. I broke my no spend to buy them, but it was worth it - I loved them the moment I tried them on!

Shirt/jeans: Boden
Belt: Mint Velvet
Trainers: Moda in Pelle

So stylish! I wish I could put outfits together like you.

Sooverthemill · 21/04/2023 18:09

@HorribleHisTories15 we have to add 6 crushed tablets and one syrup to each of old dog’s meals! I use a pill crusher from the chemist to avoid my pestle and mortar being misused .
@faffadoodledo I had those trousers! Sold them on sadly

itssquidstella · 21/04/2023 19:11

Some great outfits here! I’ve been really busy at work this week so I've just skimmed through the last few days' worth of posts; will try to catch up properly this weekend.

Today’s outfit:

H&M blazer
The Kooples silk vest top

Bless you @Sooverthemill , it sounds like a real labour of love with your dog. I don't think that it was a labour of love with DH. Quite the opposite in fact Confused. I'm working on him though

Greyhairwarmheart · 22/04/2023 07:57

Sorry to hear about your sick dogs @Purplecatshopaholic and @Sooverthemill . Beautiful new trousers @OublietteBravo . Gorgeous linen dress @HorribleHisTories15 . Yesterday dress Laura Ashley.

@HorribleHisTories15 he’s such a beloved old soul, sat by me while I recovered from cancer treatment, went into hospital to visit DD when she was in for months on end, and so gentle. I spent 10 minutes brushing him yesterday and it was so good to be with him, looking after him for a change. I’m going to be heartbroken when he goes

top: knitted by me
jeans: agolde
shoes: hush ( brand new today)

nice top, and haircut!
Gorgeous dog

faffadoodledo · 22/04/2023 09:03

What a lovely dog @Sooverthemill
A proper, doggish dog if I may say. And worth every second spent on grooming.

Sooverthemill · 22/04/2023 09:14

Aww thank you! He really needs to go to groomers but once the vet said his days were very numbered I've not wanted to make him stoned half a day away from us and he needs to stand to be groomed properly which is very hard for him now. I think he is the best dog ever

Thank you! I showed the hairdresser a video of someone having their cut cut from long to shoulder length and she produced this kind of choppy bob. I've not had it so short since it grew back after chemo. Every time I go into DDs room she's surprised by it ( and me too when I go past a mirror!)

Stugs · 22/04/2023 09:27

I want a choppy bob. A blonde one (currently a mix of grey/mouse and dark blonde)

OublietteBravo · 22/04/2023 09:48

I have to pack/clean/move. Probably on repeat for the next week or so. Why did I think home renovations were a good idea?

Jumper: Warehouse
Trousers: White Stuff
Trainers: Jigsaw

Because they will be in the end!

EllaPaella · 22/04/2023 10:22

So sorry to hear ddog senior is struggling @Purplecatshopaholic - I can't bear the thought of my dog ever not being here, they really are part of the family.
I saw friends last night for tapas, wore this with some heels. And got this lovely little bag from M&S for summer, they have some nice stuff in right now.

Aww @Sooverthemill, I love your boy, he’s adorable. I’m sorry to say I lost my boy yesterday afternoon. He was starting to suffer and it was time. Devastated doesn’t adequately describe it really, he and I went through a lot together. No pic of me today - please indulge me everyone if I post a pic of my boy
