Sorry - the app hasn't remembered any of my tags other than the above 👆 apologies

I hope you avoided the rain @EllaPaella - I certainly didn’t! And it was far colder than I was expecting too.

Jumper: Boden
Belt: Mint Velvet
Trousers: M&S
Boots: DMs

Yesterday skirt next, top white stuff, cardigan primark. Sleet here today. Hopefully the last blast of winter!

No outfit photo today (I was wearing Boden dungarees with Uniqlo's cashmere knit) but some sakura pics instead. I can't believe sakura is still not in full bloom yet, typically by this time it's already all withered. I'd be really pissed if I was a tourist who traveled from the other side of the world just to see famous cherry blossoms and sakura decided to bloom 10 days later than the official forecast

I don't know if it's obvious from the photos but it's like 70% bloom for the somei yoshino sakura in sunny spots. I saw some cherries along the river which had only buds!

Beautiful

Not going to win any style awards today. But I am very happy with my new Didrickson's anorak. Perfect for springtime dog walking. With jeans and Le Chameau short wellies and ancient bum bag full of poo bags and dog treats. I know how to accessorise 😂

Love your pics of Japan @toucaninjapan, blossom is so beautiful.
This was yesterday - dress from Baum and Pferdgarten with Tory Burch boots. Soooo wet and windy here, but really mild - just wish Spring would spring!

True to April it's all the seasons in one day.. wasn't greath this morning but the sun is shining and we're having a little bit of your spring up here today @OublietteBravo
Windy though!
Beautiful pics @toucaninjapan
Today I'm feeling summery - Top and Jeans H&M, belt M&S ans jacket is John Lewis

I love your jeans @EllaPaella

Do you rate Baum and Pferdgarten @Purplecatshopaholic? I love Ganni and they seem to have similar vibes!

@poppyslashtulip, I got into B and P’garten as I love Ganni! The Scandi vibe really appeals to me.

Nice sakura views from the office lobby. You can't clearly see it but I'm wearing my sakura shirt 🌸

Inadvertently I am a walking advert for the Ralph by Ralph Lauren range today - both the dress and shoes from there. Love their pieces actually, and you can’t go wrong with a cute dress and Mary Janes - not in my world anyway! Cardigan is Pure. Note the snoozing doggies as mum gets ready for work, lol.

I’m looking a bit dishevelled as I’d been for a run just before taking the picture. It’s still really windy, which is making it feel colder than it actually is.

Shirt/trousers: M&S
Trainers: Next

I’m going to stop saying it’s raining, as clearly that’s going to be the case now until the End. Of. Time! Had a doctors appointment then WFH so chilling in combats from Jaki, with boots from Iris and Ink, and a The Smiths tee shirt.

I agree @Purplecatshopaholic. It seems to have been raining constantly for months (it’s raining now). I think I’ve been lulled into a false sense of “it must be spring” - I’ve been cold all day. I clearly need to go back to boots and chunky knots again.

All M&S today.

I love your Ralph Lauren outfit @Purplecatshopaholic

This is a pic for @norma1980 - as a promised on the jeans thread these are the Arket Rose cropped jeans. I'm a size 10 and 5'7, these are a size 27

Yesterday skirt seasalt, jumper Laura Ashley.

Thanks for sharing info on jeans …. Which look like a great fit . Jeans are a nightmare to buy in my experience …. So all help much appreciated !!!!

Back to boots and tights today. Definitely the right decision!

Dress: The Fold
Boots: DMs

Dressing for spring is a nightmare @OublietteBravo . I often feel too hot or too cold. Yesterday skirt white stuff, cardigan Fenn Wright and Manson.

I've always loved that Fold dress @OublietteBravo
I haven't been posting outfits because I'm so over this weather. I just can't muster my mojo! Everything seems so dreary, like the weather! But I'm still enjoying everyone else's

Nice view from the company cafeteria. Cherry petals were dancing in the wind, such a pretty sight

I’m not convinced I like these trousers. I hardly ever wear black trousers. However, if I get rid of them I’ll decide that I need a pair, and start hunting for the perfect pair again. I expect it’s cheaper to just keep these, wear them once or twice per year, and periodically remind myself that their not my favorite pair.

Jumper: Karen Millen (must be at least 12 years old)
Trousers: Hobbs
Trainers: M&S

Lovely views @toucaninjapan
Wish I had the same- my office doesn't even have windows 😩
Today: Jeans Arket, Blazer Vinted, Belt M&S, Adidas trainers

New DM ‘Voss’ sandals. Sooo comfy.
