@toucaninjapan I think the Boden jeans must be badly made then! None of my agolde or citizens of humanity or even Levi jeans do that!

toucaninjapan · 23/04/2023 08:56

Just read the messages. I'm so sorry about your dog @Purplecatshopaholic :(

Totally love that lamp!

I bought the same dress from Anorak in this colour too.

So so comfy and lovely to wear 💚💜💚💜

Wow, another one, looks amazing on you.

Netcam · 23/04/2023 08:58

@Purplecatshopaholic, hugs, so sorry for your loss xxx

kingofchaos · 23/04/2023 10:11

Thank you @Netcam.

They were both half price so not feeling too robbed! My mum gave me some money for my birthday too. I know I'll wear them loads.

I would do the same. I have 6 different colours of the summer dress I wear nearly all the time in hot weather, all bought half price in the sales.

So sorry for your painful loss @Purplecatshopaholic ❤️

@faffadoodledo love the Boden trousers and jumper combo.

It's rubbish outside so today I'm wearing this. Boden top and skirt, Sezane jumper.

Sorry I haven't posted any pictures lately, been living in leggings or joggers and hoodies mainly. Doing loads of sorting in the house trying to swap our bedroom with the current office room, moving furniture, trying out paint samples on the wall. Also had our micro caravan serviced last week and went to collect it yesterday; while it was being done the contents of it were piled up in the office room. And most of the contents of the office room are now piled up in our bedroom. Also going to build a new flatpack desk for DS2 for his bedroom, which he is trying to reorganise to fit it in there. So @OublietteBravo, I am with you with all the hassle of house sorting! Our house currently feels like a big chaotic mess.

OublietteBravo · 23/04/2023 11:54

Rather more monochrome than I realised. But not going anywhere, just more sorting/packing/cleaning.

Top: Boden
Trousers/trainers: M&S

It’s so cold. Again. I’m wishing I’d brought a jumper with me to the office!

Dress/top: M&S
Shoes: Jigsaw

Purplecatshopaholic · 24/04/2023 10:48

Thank you all for all the dog love and kind words. It’s been a tough weekend, but back in the saddle now - not least because I have another dog who is totally out of sorts with my older boy gone. WFH today, keeping an eye on Junior! Shirt is an old Cavalli one from somewhere, with All Saints combats and LK Bennett shoes.

Absolutely beautiful shirt @Purplecatshopaholic ❤️

strawberrysunrise · 24/04/2023 22:42

All fabulous outfits @HorribleHisTories15 (love your name btw!)

You always look so well put together!

HorribleHisTories15 · 24/04/2023 23:08

Aw thank you my dear @strawberrysunrise , that is very kind of you, but I don't feel well put together. I always feel boring. There are some fantastic dressers about and I wish that I had a bit of their style or creativity. Life is so short! <rant over>

Do join in my lovely, the ladies here are very friendly and creative. And it is a nice reminder that the users on MN are regular people, dressing and styling their clothes in a wearable manner, rather than according to magazines.

Greyhairwarmheart · 25/04/2023 06:28

I agree @HorribleHisTories15 , you show real attention to detail. Sunday trousers Planet, jumper knitted by me.

Love that seated @Greyhairwarmheart
Are you an experienced knitter? I'm still on the novice slopes using Wool and the Gang but am starting to feel like moving up a notch to lower intermediate!

Cardigansalltheway · 25/04/2023 08:15

Love your green jeans and how you've styled them @HorribleHisTories15. And a tfistunning outfit from a couple of days ago @doglover90, the skirt and top look lovely together.

Cardigansalltheway · 25/04/2023 08:20

Another all black and blazer outfit with everything from Zara. I haven't actually bought that much from there lately but trying to not buy too much new stuff. The blazer is showing excellent value in terms of CPW and is at least five years old (as are the trousers).
