Lovely boots. How do you clean them? Can they be machine washed?

Rollerbird · 26/03/2023 08:52

I'd try. They were £12 in the clearance section

Thanks - I love the clogs.. shoes that give me flutters in the chest 😁I've been waiting for spring to arrive to get them out.

Cardigansalltheway · 26/03/2023 09:44

Love that poetry jumper @Greyhairwarmheart, looks perfect for spring.

OublietteBravo · 26/03/2023 11:31

Rain, rain - endless rain. Which is just what we don’t need for our building work. The soil is full of clay, and the foundations they’ve dug are starting to resemble a moat.

Top: Baukjen
Jeans: Mint Velvet

I feel your pain @OublietteBravo - my garden is a swamp! Doggies are seriously not happy (Spanish dogs - hate rain, mud, cold etc - bit of a shame I rehomed them to Scotland now I come to think about it, lol).
popping into town. Dress from Pretty Lavish with cardigan from Karen Millen and boots from EMP.

Why is all the spring/summer 2023 stuff still dominated by tiered midi dresses with puff sleeves? Surely it must be time to move on to something new?

Gorgeous look. Your hair goes so nicely with it. If you don't mind me asking how do you keep the white so white. Do you use anything special to was with?

I don't know, but I won't be buying any of them. That kind of thing just doesn't suit me at all.

I agree. I have a summer dress like that in my wardrobe that I was thinking didn't excite me much any more. The only trouble is that I always get too much summer stuff for the type of weather we get.

EnoBaby · 26/03/2023 15:34

Got myself up, showered AND dressed today. Feeling so much better than I did on Friday.

Nice and soft in FatFace summer trousers and And/Or sweater.

That suit looks lovely @Purplecatshopaholic , I'd definitely think someone was über cool wearing that!

Those cute shoes @EllaPaella ! With those socks and dungarees 🥰 cuteness

Really like your jeans, belt and boots @Softpebbles, the jumper works really well with them.

I really like that jumper @Greyhairwarmheart, it looks very versatile and flowy (name of my game).

My thing is flowy tops @takemebacktothe1990s, I like them loose for some strange reason. Trousers I'm not too fussed about.

HorribleHisTories15 · 26/03/2023 17:17

We seem to be having a super sociable weekend and are out for the third night in a row, although tonight is pretty low key - dinner out with MIL and BIL followed by a concert. A very new nice end to the weekend.

Jumper: Zara
Skirt: Tu

LOVE the cardi @HorribleHisTories15

faffadoodledo · 26/03/2023 17:41

@EllaPaella cardi is old Boden. Couldn't tell you how old. It is super useful tho. I often wear it over my Ghost slip dress. Satin and fluff seem a good combo and always look quite luxe together

EllaPaella · 26/03/2023 18:46

Yes love a mix of satin and fluff @faffadoodledo
Today wearing old Toast jumper and new Everlane Trousers. The sun finally came out for the last part of the day, going to go for a run and then swim in the sea to celebrate the lighter nights. Spring is here!

@OublietteBravo I agree about dresses, I hate puffed sleeves! 🙄
