14’c when I popped to the supermarket earlier.

jeans - Levi’s, mango top, NB Trainers.

Never really shopped at Mango, but was impressed when I went in last week.

Confusing weather today. It's still summer (and not cold), but is mizzly and murky
Toast jeans
Palaver top
New Birkenstock clogs. Unsure about this style. But they are comfy, and I'm giving my toenails a break from polish so am concealing them!

Simon Miller dress with Schuh boots. Love this dress, it’s such a zingy colour, lol.

@Purplecatshopaholic - we’re not just doing the kitchen. The entire top floor is being remodelled (we currently only have 1/3 of a roof), and we’re extending/moving structural walls/removing chimney breasts elsewhere. Turns out you can spend a lot of money on a house!

We’re ignoring it all for a week. We’re on holiday. Although the flight chaos yesterday meant that we didn’t get to our hotel until 3am. Feeling a bit tired today!

Top: M&S
Trousers: Hush
Sandals: Ecco

Feeling noticeably cooler in the mornings now although often a bit muggy by lunchtime.

Am trying not to wear too many very summery things so I don't have to wash and iron too much before going on holiday in just over a week. Bought a dress from Hush and it arrived yesterday and I love it! Looking forward to wearing it.

@OublietteBravo I sympathise with you on the renovations. We finally finished a top to bottom renovation this by year which started in late 2020 (took a hiatus to have a baby). I hadn't had a wardrobe in about 3 years and the novelty of having one again has not worn off!

@faffadoodledo love the Palava top. I've been eyeing up some trousers and knitwear from there, how would you say they are size/fit wise? Quite true to the measurements they give? Long or short?

Today's outfit for WFH is:
Cardigan - M&S
T-shirt - Uniqlo
Jeans - Mango

couple of outfits from last few days. We were in Edinburgh for the last weekend of the festival and I got to see DHs musical. Yay. Total nightmare getting back because our flight was cancelled and we ended up back in our luxury hotel and had to get the train yesterday this arriving 24 hours late. Not a good experience for DD who needed alternative care.

went shopping in Toast too, a lovely store and saw ‘a little black dress’ exhibition which was very interesting

We tried to fly on Monday but felt foul of the air traffic control problems so we're staying at home. Beautiful seaside walk yesterday. Top seasalt, trousers Brax.

Hello my dears, sorry for the absence. We moved house straight after the end of school to the mainland and our container only just arrived a fortnight ago. The Internet was connected last week. Needless to say the house is in a form of organised chaos. Our plans to take a sabbatical from work for DH and a change of jobs for me are still up in the air while we rush to get things together before the start of school for the DC.

But the lovely clothes on here have been a lovely distraction recently! Thank you my dearies.

Littlemissprosecco · 30/08/2023 15:30

Nice to know you’re ok, you’ve been missed

OublietteBravo · 30/08/2023 19:09

Hello @HorribleHisTories15 👋

I’m enjoying actually being able to wear summer clothes.

HorribleHisTories15 · 30/08/2023 21:07

Bless you @OublietteBravo , you are exceptionally stoic with all of those renovations. DH took down one of our kitchen work surfaces and some cupboards last week with DS9, it made me very nervous as very little planning went into their mission. He has moved a chair into the space and has declared that the chair is a great addition as he can reach the espresso machine and radio without standing up Confused

Very sweet of you @Littlemissprosecco . How are you doing?

Sooverthemill · 31/08/2023 08:30

@HorribleHisTories15 hello!

Nice to see you back @HorribleHisTories15. At home today so a chance to dress down a bit - Anthropologie harem pants, with a top from All Saints and Mary Janes from Matches. I seem to have managed a pic without my faithful dog posse, lol - for once.

OublietteBravo · 01/09/2023 13:40

That jumper is absolutely gorgeous @Sooverthemill. The forecast is hinting at summer weather once the kids go back to school. Which sounds about right!

EllaPaella · 01/09/2023 14:04

Certainly feels autumnal today but yesterday was beautiful here and the forecast looks like a late summer is on the way. But it's typical September with colder mornings and evenings here now. I have new boots that I love so wearing them today before it gets too hot for them again 😁 Steve Madden - like DM's but much softer leather. And they were in the sale, I love them.
