Outfits I am coveting this month.

[Gettingbysomehow]

I love these dresses which are a jumper or cardigan/skirt combo, I can see they are quite popular at the moment and I've seen them in Mint Velvet and FatFace.
I like the idea of just putting a dress on rather than a separate skirt and top.
This ones a bit too expensive for me but I may go and try on the Fat Face ones.

What are you coveting this month?

I’m not really in need of anything except a decent waterproof coat, but they are really not exciting to think about!

I also want a green scarf, but can’t find one that I like.

Finally, I need a trip to Uniqlo soon to see if the knitted midi/tube skirt they’re advertising is any good. I’m pinning a lot of hopes on this!

Pretty much everything in the new Margaret Howell collection. 😅 Having bought and repeatedly worn quite a bit from last summer’s sale, I found scarcely anything I liked in the A/W collection so bought nothing from that sale.

But I can see so much that will fit beautifully into my wardrobe and life from the new stuff.

I need a hooded warm jacket for going out walks. I had one from Next but it didn't cover my bum so looking for something longer.
Had a quick look in outdoor type shops but most were over £200!

It's not exactly a covet but I can't decide whether to have one last go at finding some wide leg jeans or give up.

It's not the style that's the problem - I've got wide legs in corduroy, wool and cotton twill that I love. But with jeans, I'm finding the denim is either too stiff to hang well or it goes droopy after a few wears. I don't remember this problem last time around so I'm not sure if it's the incessant drop in quality or me getting fussier.

I've tried the usual brands get get recommended on here so I suspect I'd have to throw money at the problem to sort it. I'm not sure whether it would be worth it or whether I should just accept that it's not the right fabric for me.

I also need some straight or wide legged jeans - which don’t make me look like a potato. I’ve been looking for ages and can’t find any that are remotely ok for my size 16 body!

I have my eye on quite a few Mint Velvet knits. Also a couple on Sezane. But it feels so close to spring now I'm trying to resist the temptation and wait until autumn before buying any more.

I'm on the look out for some straight, ankle grazer leopard print jeans. Mint Velvet have a lovely pair with just the right print but they're barrel style and that just doesn't suit me

II’m not sure if it’s stylish or beautiful but Sweaty Betty have a new colour out, which is a gorgeous dusty mud blue. I really fancy a vest and cropped sweatshirt in that for my yoga and Body Balance classes.

And I’m always on the lookout for second hand John Lewis cashmere berets as my dog steals and chews them up faster than I can buy them - they don’t make them any more but I got a gorgeous mauve one in Vinted and have seen a baby blue one I might bid on.

I want, rather than need, a grey wool jumper, but nothing's quite the right length, colour or chunkiness. I liked a raspberry sweatshirt I saw in the flesh (as it were), but online it's not as nice so am wavering. I'm half want, half need on trousers for work, but don't know what I fancy. And I want a new cardigan but a nice oversized old man one rather than a twee one, have yet to find one I love. So fairly disappointing all round at the moment!

Me too Somerset's a tad wet this year.

Cardigan? Rather liking this:

(They also do simple V neck cardigans. Wonderful wool apparently.)

I shouldn’t really be on this thread, as I’m a bit of a sheep on the coveting front.

I wear levis ribcage Wide. Really love them. I bought on Vinted very cheaply and new

Thanks @friendlyflicka. I have some ribcage straight legs that I like so that's a good shout.
