Sorry if I've missed a tag

£150 for hamster teeth! Blimey @Sooverthemill - I hope said hamster is grateful for the dental, lol. I’m WFH today - an All Saints animal print slip dress with Karen Millen long cardigan and Schuh Blowfish boots.

Cardigan and skirt fat face, top H&M. Ongoing humid weather.

Thank you @evtheria that's so kind.

I'm loving seeing the various striped tops, have been eyeing up a couple and looking longingly at a striped jumper I have in my wardrobe for when autumn rolls around.

Today it's warm and wet, my least favourite weather for working out what to wear!

T-shirt: Uniqlo
Skirt: Monsoon
I wore some navy leather pointed toe flats for the nursery run.

@Brieandbeetroot you look fantastic and I love your mirror! Matches your outfit 😁

Ha! Thanks @Nyporeon, I subconsciously (or maybe not!) decorated my house in the colours that suit me so I often find myself blending with the surroundings 😁 that mirror was a long time coming, no full length mirror since we moved in 4 years ago!

Freezing in the office aircon again, so I’ve added a jumper since this photo was taken.

Top/trousers: M&S
Trainers: Next

Love the green @OublietteBravo!

Thanks @Brieandbeetroot!

It’s sunny, but there is a noticeable chill in the air. Really starting to seem autumnal. I wonder how many of my autumn/winter clothes ended up in storage? (We’re currently in rented accommodation due to house renovations - this is the current state of the kitchen).

Shirt: Boden
Trousers: M&S
Trainers: Next

@OublietteBravo your shirt and trouser game is strong as always.
@evtheria love that skirt.
@Greyhairwarmheart and @Purplecatshopaholic lovely outfits as always.
I haven't posted anything in ages largely because I've managed to bore myself with my outfits. Out tonight tho so hopefully I'll be able to shake myself into action!

Dodging some pretty hefty showers today.

Jumpsuit: M&S
Trainers: Mint Velvet

I might freeze tonight. Posh bbq at a friend's house. Will ruin the look with a bulky cardi in a minute. But in the meantime Boden dress and Clark's shoes

Crikey @OublietteBravo you won’t be cooking in there for a while! When are you hoping to move back?

Same old here. I went shopping last week and bought far too many stripey things! Have ordered some new trainers and September will be a no spend month as I don’t need anything.

I do need to list some bits on Vinted!

Love the green @OublietteBravo . Thanks very much @faffadoodledo . Lovely going out outfit. Hope you had a great time. Thursday trousers H&M top can't remember it used to be my mum's.

I have a day of housework and packing ahead of me as we’re off on holiday tomorrow.

Jumper: Stolen from DH after it shrunk in the wash(!)
Jeans: M&S
Trainers: M&S

Went out for lunch, Paul smith T-shirt and old navy pleated skirt.

I don’t think pleats are particularly flattering but wore for a change.

I agree pleats are difficult to pull off, @Softpebbles . But I think you manage very well. Don't you have a lovely green pleated skirt too?

Love your burgundy outfit @Brieandbeetroot

A couple of looks from the last week that I was too lazy to post

I'm eyeing up Sezane's new collection. So many delicate feminine pieces, but the prices! It seems they raise prices every year and I've noticed that their silk Chlo shirts are now 25% more expensive than a couple of months ago. 🥺

@toucaninjapan i think it's your exchange rate. As far as I can tell prices are about the same in UK

I'm away at the moment but will post photos if some stuff when I am back tomorrow

I wish it was just the exchange rate! Unfortunately looks like it's not. The markups are different everywhere though, I've seen a bunch of Australians say some of the items are 50% more expensive now. For other countries it's more like 10-15% raise. UK is very close to France so I supposed that's the reason they haven't raised the prices for you like they did for more distant countries

Oh golly @OublietteBravo your kitchen pic is stressing me out, lol - I really need mine done but just can’t face it. You are very brave! Linen waistcoat and trousers from Top Shop with See by Chloe top and Jimmy Choo boots. PurplecatDog Number One is looking for cuddles - he’s a mummy’s boy, bless him

@toucaninjapan lovely dress but my eyes are drawn to the gigantic spider sitting near your shoulder!!

@faffadoodledo I haven’t a green one! Navy, animal print and burgundy.

I fancy a slip skirt in navy, pink or green. I think I have a few things I could wear with one.

Must be someone else @Softpebbles !
I do think slip skirts/ dresses are great value and versatile.
