@LittleRedRidingHoody thank you! He seems fine today so I’m never sure if it’s worth going out or another day of recovery? Hope you’re workout was good 💪

@happytobemrsg ha that sounds like a plan waiting til 1! How old is your baby?

It’s freezing here and unsure of our plans so I’ve got dressed in real clothes in case we do go out:

zara jeans- £40
M&S thermal layer thing- £28
h&m cable knit polo neck- £35

if we go out I’ll probably wear my ugg tasmans, £120 and my arket football manager coat, £270.

LittleRedRidingHoody · 28/11/2024 10:36

Lululemon shorts £44
Festival T-shirt £30

Oganesson118 · 28/11/2024 11:45

Mooching at home

Printed long sleeve T-shirt from RedBubble - £21
Roman jeans £25 (I think)

Underwear and socks, I don't know but they're nothing special, probably from multipacks!

If I get cold I have a Nike hoodie but it's a knock off from Egypt that I bought to wear on the plane so that didn't cost much.

happytobemrsg · 28/11/2024 12:15

@Isitfridayyetsophie He has just turned 6 months. I also have an 8yr old & 5yr old. They haven’t noticed I’ve not been dressed since May 😂

@LittleRedRidingHoody How is Calvin Klein underwear? I really like the look of the matching sets & I HATE underwires. I’m around 34DD I think.

Day at home today. I had a small procedure over the weekend so I could blame it on that but the reality is, if I’m at home, I’m in PJs 🫣

Pjs - £28ish sale - Chelsea Peers
Oversized Barbie jumper - £10 - Primark
Fluffy socks - Gift - Primark
Slippers - £20ish - M&S

LittleRedRidingHoody · 28/11/2024 13:25

@happytobemrsg I love them ~ similar size to you (32D) but I normally wear a medium when they're sized like that. I think because I've always had M&S undies since I was a teen, now I have some 'nicer' ones they're a real confidence boost 😂 I have a few wired/underwired and to be fair both feel comfortable and keep things where they need to be!

@henlake7 I need to buy more fluffy socks I think. The last pair I had seemed to fluff everything in the washing machine

We’ve decided to stay in tonight instead, so I’ve got changed into the same cords as yesterday and a Hush jumper that was either £95 or £99 (can’t remember). Very comfy!

happytobemrsg · 28/11/2024 15:46

@henlake7 glad I’m not the only one rocking the Primark fluffy socks!

@LittleRedRidingHoody I might give them a go when I return to work next year as a bit of a boost. I never wear matching undies!

Garlicpest · 29/11/2024 00:03

£0 😂 I've been wearing the interesting old sweater I can't bring myself to throw out, some bleach-stained leggings I thought I had thrown out, and socks from The Old Sock Bag.

For more than half my life to date, I felt it necessary to look reasonably put-together, even if I was going nowhere and doing nothing. I've had this lazy non-outfit thing down to an untidy 'art' for some while now, but I still get an odd sort of pleasure from not caring!

Pumpkincozynights · 29/11/2024 07:53

Skirt-Next £5 from a charity shop.
Vest- free my auntie gave it to me.
Jumper - M & S a Christmas present. Would have been about £25.
Tights about £2 from a multi pack
Knickers M&S multi pack so about £2
bra M&S about £14 from the outlet store.
Jewellery was all bought as gifts apart from my earrings which are ancient and I think cost about £5.
Shoes £40.

LittleRedRidingHoody · 29/11/2024 12:51

Isitfridayyetsophie · 29/11/2024 14:25

@happytobemrsg 🤣 Maybe they’ll notice once youngest is 1 that suddenly you’re in jeans. I really think it took me about 6 months before I put a pair of jeans back on thinking about it!

@Garlicpest okay this is a record of £0! I look forward to the day where I lose the feeling of needing to look put together! I always feel like I’m only a few minutes away from being nagged at to go out so I embrace any pj days I can have!

It’s a glorious day here today. Had a kid’s class this morning, followed by soft play with friends, came home for lunch (and to put slow cooker on) now going to our local park with a football and remote control car, where we’ll stay til it’s dark!

Lulu lemon align leggings- £90ish
m&s thermal top- £28 (I really recommend the M&S thermal stuff @henlake7 if you’re looking for toasty stuff!)
anine Bing jumper- £200ish
alo socks- £25

arket football manager coat- £270
Uniqlo cashmere hat- £20
cashmere wrist warmers, Amazon- £30
prada sunglasses- £350
mansur Gavriel tote- £700ish

H0T · 29/11/2024 14:27

Chinos from Jigsaw £50
Cashmere jumper £80
Turtle doves gloves £40

Garlicpest · 29/11/2024 14:54

It sounds like a lovely day, @Isitfridayyetsophie! I never grew out of my excessive delight in remote control toys (maybe I should give myself a drone for Christmas?!) You've really nailed the stylishly comfortable aesthetic.

LittleRedRidingHoody · 29/11/2024 14:56

@Isitfridayyetsophie your days sound so wholesome and fun! Makes me miss mat leave 😂

Stepped outside and nearly froze to death so have added an Eras Tour sweatshirt ~ found on Vinted for £32.

Liking your style Netcam! I love my merino base layers.

moonshinepoursthroughmywindow · 29/11/2024 22:01

I can't remember exactly but approximate prices would probably be:

bra: about £8
pants: about £3.33(3333...)
second-hand shirt: about £10
thin polo neck underlayer: probably about £6 (was some budget brand like George)
skirt: about £20
opaque tights: about £6
boots: about £60 (they're by Fly and expensive by my standards - I usually buy this brand eBay but these ones were new in a sale)
while outside I wore a down jacket that cost about £60 in a sale

This is a bit unusual - most days I wear more second-hand than this.

Thanks! It's the only way to keep warm in this weather. I spend all winter in several layers of wool. Where do you get your merino base layers from?
