I LOVE a dipped hem!

Do I need to say *light-hearted? 🤣

I also love a cold shoulder top. I think they make me look really soft and pretty and summery. I also like cropped tops, vans, crocs, loud type clothes.

Not to criticise or be mean about it because I don’t mean it that way AT ALL, but quite often on S&B I think the advice/common things said are a bit dated or not quite with the times. I saw one recently with people insisting low checkered vans were so outdated etc and should be worn barefoot if they must be worn at all. But actually amongst most of the young trendy types I know they’re worn often and always with socks, usually sports branded, because they’re back in style. It seems sometimes that if you don’t want to wear a flattering slim leg jean with a ‘crisp’ white shirt and veja trainers, along with a ‘funky’ scarf and/or a ‘simple’ necklace (all in ‘good’ fabrics of course) then you don’t get fashion. But in fact I think it’s just that S&B often attracts a very particular type of style rather than people widely interested in different types of fashion.

Skinny jeans

Daffodilwoman · 28/04/2023 22:18

Floral dresses, dresses with a frill at the bottom, cardigans.

KateofGhent · 28/04/2023 22:21

I am quite nostalgic about bootleg trousers, not the original 1970's ones, the late 90's modified, refined and tasteful bootlegs.

LouLou198 · 28/04/2023 22:22

Skinny jeans, ballet pumps, leggings and Ugg's!

ElbowsToes · 28/04/2023 22:22

I don't always want to look expensive. It's quite nice to look cheap (not as in short skirt and low top) because your clothes are supermarket specials and that's OK.

LeefPeeper · 28/04/2023 22:35

Short denim jacket, like waist length rather than blazer style. Will never not like me, so versatile

illiterato · 28/04/2023 22:36

Uggs- although to be fair it was S&B that tipped me off to the ultra minis which have been attached to my feet all winter

mrsm43s · 28/04/2023 22:54

Skinny jeans
Leggings as trousers (and not undergarments!)
Cardis
Uggs
and, at a push, Crocs, although mostly these have been usurped by sliders.

Mind you, I dress for comfort and convenience, not style.

RampantIvy · 28/04/2023 22:59

Skechers (thank you osteoarthritis)
Cardigans - I feel the cold easily nd don't always want to have to pull a jumper over my head
Didn't realise that short denim jackets were out. I see loads of people wearing them. I will continue to wear mine over my midi and maxi dresses.

LadyAstor · 28/04/2023 22:59

Loads.

Dipped hems/high-low skirts
Classic styles
A blazer
Skinny jeans
Supergas
Loafers
tailored trousers
Fitted clothes with tailoring
light coloured clothes
Joules coats (not the mad ones though)
Barbour

Everyone on here seems to run around in oversized COS, Uniqlo or Primark.

Crikeyalmighty · 28/04/2023 23:21

@RampantIvy I adore Skechers!

@RampantIvy I adore Skechers!

They are like walking on cushions aren't they.

Crikeyalmighty · 28/04/2023 23:24

@lucylantern ah my summer wardrobe or a decent spring/autumn,

EllaPaella · 28/04/2023 23:27

Skinny jeans; There will always be a place for them in my wardrobe.
All-saints leather jacket and my denim jacket, again according to Mumsnet they are 'ubiquitous' but I love mine.

EllaPaella · 28/04/2023 23:28

100% agree with you there @Kanaloa

EllaPaella · 28/04/2023 23:31

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 28/04/2023 21:04

Mum jeans, which apparently look shit on everyone. Well, they look good on me, thanks. Skinny jeans looked absolutely terrible on me because I am pear-shaped.

Oh I love Mom jeans as well. And Barrel leg.

Also love a denim dungaree in summer worn over a strappy vest top with sandals.

MorrisZapp · 28/04/2023 23:36

Floral dress with a little denim jacket and wedge heels! 'so dated' is it aye? Stop trying to make larva fashion happen. Women know what they look good in and fifty shades of oversized surgical stocking ain't it.

ShinyAppleDreamingOfTheSea · 28/04/2023 23:37

Leggings with a tunic
Sketchers

MorrisZapp · 28/04/2023 23:38

This baby is mine! Bring me sunshine ☀️

I used to have gorgeous denim dungarees from Gap. I wore them with spaghetti strap vests and platform trainers in summer. I’ve been searching for a new pair but no luck yet. Surprisingly hard thing to come by when you have a sort of long torso but short legs!

Niftythrifter · 29/04/2023 00:43

Puff sleeves!

mathanxiety · 29/04/2023 01:59

Skinny jeans
