Today should be a lovely day. The two eldest are treating me to a day in London as a belated 65th birthday present. Lunch at Ottolenghi and the Beyond Impressionism exhibition t the National Gallery. Am nervous at leaving DD with DH for the whole day but hoping all my prep of her meals ahead of time will at least mean he feeds her!

I am already crumpled but the forecast is 28 so linen it is. Dreas
is Gant ( old) sandals Penelope Chilvers and the bag is a Sézane free tote big enough for inhaler and antihistamines and tissues and water bottle! I have a cute wicker basket inside too.

wish me luck!

oh, bonus pic of the winter jumper I finished yesterday and need photos of to send in to complete my test knit obligations! A little bit hot!

My kind of London day @Sooverthemill. I dream of my London based children stitching together such a day out for me.
Happy birthday... and you do NOT look your age at all! That number was a real surprise!

Love the cream and white together @Purplecatshopaholic !

Pretty dresses @Puddinandpie and @Greyhairwarmheart !

I like how you have made your dress more wearable @MrsZzz with the shirt. There is no reason why we have to wear a shirt closed.

Seriously @Sooverthemill , you are blessed and talented to be able to even see through a design to the end. And what a creation! It is fabulous! 😍

Today:
Shirt: a handmade shirt from a lady
Trousers: Monsoon
Sandals: Birkenstock

My god it was hot last night, I literally boiled my head off in bed, there was just no wind utterly awful! I'm gonna lose the cardi am already boiling, hoping a picnic in the shade at the park will do the trick and obviously an ice cream with dh and kiddies😁
Dress- nastygal
Cowboy boots- they are older than my eldest who is 14, super comfy perfect for the park

Going out to see family tonight - dinner and drinks in town. Vintage Vivienne Westwood that I haven’t worn for ages is a possible dress option. Shoes are Shoes of Prey. Haven’t decided yet though, and having a wardrobe rummage, lol.

Lovely 😊

@Sooverthemill happy belated birthday and hope you had a lovely day.

Sooverthemill · 12/06/2023 08:11

Had a lovely day. It was warm for sure but not overwhelmingly so though it was nice to find the odd bit of air conditioning. Did I mention how much I love the hot weather!

shorts and tee today for a hopefully garden based day

First time posting! Trying to feel more me again.

So vintage 70s dress, necklace gifted by Grandma over a decade ago. And m+s chunky heels.

Welcome @NotQuiteUsual. Not so warm today but we are apparently getting thunderstorms later, so maybe this is literally the calm before the inevitable…. Old fave harem pants from Michael Kors, with Jimmy Choos and an old Forbidden Tribes oversized jumper. You look stunning in yesterday’s dress @Greyhairwarmheart.
