I am a total style icon in

Dark wash skinny jeans
Long bodied (!) brown short sleeved v neck top
Pink Boden jumper of DH's which I cleverly managed to accidentally shrink from a mens XL to a sz12 !
Black socks
Red bra
Big pants

Chic, I think you'll agree

Goodness, we're all looking a bit black, brown and blue today, me included:
Brown cords with beige tights underneath and navy socks
navy v-neck long sleeved T-shirt
Brown polo neck over it (as it's freezing)
very unflattering thermal underwear including the biggest pair of knickers from M&S you can find
And my slippers.
Oh, and no jewelry except my wedding ring

nonetaken · 08/01/2009 19:25

I like these threads! - today I'm wearing

Pale yellow Whistles jumper
Navy stripe boden l/s t shirt underneath
Navy stripe Boden scarf
Seven A pocket jeans
Chestnut Uggs over navy stripe Monsoon socks

That's a lot of navy stripe going on, hopefully doesn't look as bad as it sounds..

TheRealMrsJohnSimm · 08/01/2009 20:38

Mrs SB: I was very, very good and although I lusted after this dress since November last year, I held out to see if it went in the sale and it did! You need to look at the "other views" to get a full idea of the fit......it's not sack-like as the main view would have you believe!

TheRealMrsJohnSimm · 08/01/2009 20:39

oh and i bought in "cocoa" rather than grey.

beanieb · 08/01/2009 20:40

New cuddly pink dressing gown, knickers, me to you slippers which DD bought me for Christmas. They have a great big teddy head on the front and I'm sure I'm going to break my neck in them on the stairs. Must not wear them after wine.

Feeling shattered, full of cold and severely hung over from a brilliant night out yesterday so just had a bubbly bath.

TWINSETinapeartree · 08/01/2009 20:49

Squirdle · 08/01/2009 21:47

I have...

Black bra and knickers
Black 40 denier tights
My lovely flippy layered skirt (black with purple/pink/blue flowers)
Black vest top
Black cardigan
And because the boiler has broken...a furry waistcoat (I'm sure they aren't called that...is it a gillet?) which I was going to take back but actually it is keeping me very lovely toasty warm.
Oh and my boot slipper things from Fat Face which I also love...in purple.

In a minute I will be wearing PJ's, jumper socks and whatever else I can find when I go to bed because of said boiler!!

Bicnod · 08/01/2009 21:51
