Beige Matalan wide-leg jeans, £26.
Gigantic white broderie/lace blouse from Nobody's Child, £15 on sale. It was nearly sold out but, as it's supposed to be voluminous, I thought it'd be okay to size up. It's bloody lovely but I have to safety-pin the shoulders to my bra straps 😂
Stretchy crop-top bra thing, about £6. Safety pins, maybe 10p!
Sand & cream Puma Mayze Stacks, £75.

My ‘uniform’ of a Superdry T-shirt, Fat Face jeans, trainers and a Superdry hoodie.

I wear it every day!
Thank god for Vinted, cos i must have about 30 Superdry t-shirts.

TaupeRaven · 16/05/2025 09:49

I've just found this thread and I love it! Also love the diverse range of styles and budgets, often within one outfit!

Topday I'm wearing:

Green barrel leg trousers - £65 Oliver Bonas (first outing of these!)
Striped b&w vest - £6 Sainsburys
Green socks with pink and gold stripes - £10 Oliver Bonas
Pink Adidas Gazelle Bold with green stripes - Maybe about £90?

I've gone from a size 24 to a size 10, so all of my clothes are new. This is not usually the case for me, and I don't think I like not having old favourites in my wardrobe.

evilharpy · 16/05/2025 09:50

@TaupeRaven congratulations on your weight loss, that's amazing. I'm sure you'll find your new old favourites very quickly!

@TaupeRaven congratulations on your weight loss, that's amazing. I'm sure you'll find your new old favourites very quickly!

Thank you. It's been far more of a mind-melt than I expected, and navigating a whole new shape has been tougher than I thought. None of my staples suit me any more (that's not some kind of weird humble brag, I've gone form hourglass to much more boyish and I've given up on dresses because nothing I choose suits me!)

evilharpy · 16/05/2025 09:59

Not a humble brag at all! It's a great result.

I went the opposite way, from slim to a size 18ish, and was exactly the same in that I couldn't get my head around my shape and size and had no idea how to dress. The worst for me was what to do with a belly when I had never had one previously and was used to tucking in my tops! Thankfully I'm on the way back down now and back into most of my old favourites (including tucked tops and belts haha). I think when you're used to dressing a certain way for a long time and probably have failsafe "rules" that you know work for you, it's very hard to adjust to anything else.

Anyway I love the sound of your outfit today :)

Gettingbysomehow · 16/05/2025 12:35

I'm trying something new now I've lost all that weight.
White crop trousers with navy and white breton style turn ups £30 from Roman.
