Why is my Sézane dress marked ‘sensitive’? I can assure you it’s not!

faffadoodledo · 18/06/2023 11:35

Down to my last wearable clean holiday clothes today. Sail home tomorrow.
Everlane shorts
Tatty old bleach stained t shirt
Toast shirt worn was jacket, which is already vying for Most Useful Item of Clothing award!
Birkies shortly to be switched for trainers for walk along the Cote Granit Rose... expecting it to be beautiful even if it may rain

Good luck with the car boot @HorribleHisTories15
Will you have a clothes rail of lovely items for sale I wonder?

NotQuiteUsual · 18/06/2023 17:29

Dh wanted an at home day so just chilling in a comfortable dress. It's so humid here I want the thunder storms to hurry up!

Mint Velvet girlfriend jeans
Hand made floral top brought from a charity shop. It’s about four sizes too big but isn’t too oversized. It ‘s very sweet.
Primark canvas shoes
Topshop bag

thank you @faffadoodledo , we were definitely green behind the ears. We thought that today would be a good day, and that people would be willing to haggle and we wanted to give away bundles. But sadly there was a small crowd and very few were willing to barter. Little interest in my clothes or shoes (which were £2-4). The DSs thought that their Ninjago/ Pokémon/ Yu-gi Oh cards would be a big draw, they were disappointed. There was a large interest in our 'free' box at the end though. Then came the rain.

Oh well, you live and you learn! We still have a double Buggy , a 4x4 pushchair from Sweden, 2 car seats and lots of miscellaneous items for next time. DH might just put them out on the front step.

HorribleHisTories15 · 18/06/2023 19:16

Very cool dress @NotQuiteUsual !

NotQuiteUsual · 19/06/2023 07:22

@HorribleHisTories15 That look is so effortlessly elegant.

Primark t shirt and divided skirt today. Although I'm realistically spending most of the day in my gym wear.

NotQuiteDog decided she was joining in today. She's rocking a PetsAtHome collar in blue and pink.

Sounds stressful @HorribleHisTories15 . I sold my daughter's school blazer on Facebook and couldn't believe how I was messed around. Glad you had a nice lunch @Sooverthemill. Yesterday top, superdry, trousers debenhams.

Roserry dress from Wolf and Badger with (old fave) Missoni boots. So muggy and ‘close’ here today. Had a wee storm last night but clearly not enough, lol - waiting for the big one..

OublietteBravo · 19/06/2023 12:59

Storm @Sooverthemill? all we got was some halfhearted drizzle!

Really struggling with the arctic aircon in the office today. I’ve had to fish my fleece-lined cardigan out of the car!

Blouse: Boden
Trousers/trainers: Jigsaw

Had a lovely fathers day yesterday, dh was over the moon with his pressies and beef roast dinner, although I boiled my head off all day cooking, but the kids were happy with all the desserts and sharing dh's sweets so win, win!😁
It's breezier today and the temp has dropped a degree or so, all we got yesterday was drizzle, I was so looking forward to a spectacular thunderstorm and lots of windy cool weather!

@HorribleHisTories15 oooh I love a good Carbooty, the only bit I don't like is getting up at 4am to load the car and be there for 6am sharp, all those bargains though😍

Linen dress and bag- friends boutique
Leather Sandals- nastygal super cheap in sale before xmas

HorribleHisTories15 · 19/06/2023 16:47

Amazing dress @Puddinandpie ! 😍 linen you say? Do feel free to share the name of your friend's boutique.

Also @MrsZzz, absolutely lovely jumpsuit! 😍

So many lovely outfits! Hurrah!

I know what you mean with the faff @Greyhairwarmheart , and we also have had some real bargains and successes like you @Puddinandpie albeit as buyers, that we thought that we could give a try too! Oh well, we have learned a lot. We still have one more session to reclaim this summer, and the other sellers (and most buyers) were really nice.

Today:
T-Shirt: QS
Trousers: M& S
Belt: Picard
Sandals: Birkenstock

I am loving all your summery looks!
Hope it’s okay to join in again.
I’ve been very disorganised with sorting out my summer wardrobe this year - I literally had one pair of shorts that didn’t look dated and those were cut offs made from a pair of my sons old Topman skinny jeans.
I finally went shopping last week and found these Mom shorts from H&M. I got them in the blue denim too. At work so wearing with an old shirt of DP and Vans hi tops.

Puddinandpie · 19/06/2023 18:07

@HorribleHisTories15 woops always forget to put the name, force of habit, it's nshelley in billiericay their actually a friend of my nans but I've been going there since I was little with my nan (when i was speaking to that side of the family anyway), fab shop i could spend hours in there, lots of variety and I always end up leaving with something😁

Puddinandpie · 19/06/2023 18:08

Billericay not billiericay bloody autocorrect 🙄

Puddinandpie · 19/06/2023 18:10

@FjordFancier cut offs alway make the best shorts for some reason, they just end up looking cool! 😎

NotQuiteUsual · 20/06/2023 07:24

@Puddinandpie I adore that dress, the fabric is to die for and the colour suits you so well.

I struck gold at the local Salvation Army boutique with this £7 Joe Brown dress. It needs taking in and the shoulders thinning out, but I'll get to it when I get to it.

Sooverthemill · 20/06/2023 08:45

I won’t actually wear it like this, just to show the design on the knitted tank. I knitted it a few years ago. Shirt is Sézane, shorts Abercrombie and sandals just seen are navy Birkenstocks

it’s a bit chilly at the moment but forecast is good. Currently waiting for old dog’s physiotherapist to arrive!

EllaPaella · 20/06/2023 10:40

No storms here, just a light smattering of rain.
@HorribleHisTories15 I love your outfit from yesterday- the white M&S trousers are lovely, are they new?
I'm wearing barrel leg trousers from Everlane and top and jacket from New Look.
