  • Black silk dress by Lipsy that I lurve, as you can just throw it on and look great. I wish I could find more like it
  • Cornflower blue roll neck jumper underneath
  • black opaque tights as my legs are as hairy as a man's
  • Black cardigan (I'm wearing a lot of black at the moment)
  • "pacific" blue pashmina cos the office is always freezing

Bra - DKNY sale
Knickers - TK Maxx - forget the brand but they were a fiver instead of 25 according to the label. WHO would spend 25 pounds on pants?
Dressing gown.

Earlier I wore:
dark denim pencil skirt - M&S Autograph iirc;
long sleeved navy blue top - M&S Autograph;
blue slightly bat wing, slouchy jumper - Urban Outfitters;
grey cashmere mix tights - Autograph;
brown knee high boots - v old Principles;
bright blue belted single breasted mac - a petite range in Debenhams I think.

Miffy. That was the day that you arrived
seriously this stuff is so comfy.

janeite · 27/02/2010 17:59

two questions - a) are Sloggis as comfortable as they look? b) do they do them in black?

Flightattendant · 27/02/2010 18:11

yes, and yes

However, styles vary and you need to try them on. They are very good, managed to get mine on clearance in BHS as could never afford the full price version! V lucky.

Black and white, they also do multi packs with pastel colours etc in those catalogues, littlewoods etc.

janeite · 27/02/2010 18:13

Thank you. I may hit John Lewis

janeite · 27/02/2010 18:14

Agh - they are expensive. Will look in BHS instead!

Can I join this?

I'm in work and wearing:

Gap skinny jeans
James Perse grey cowl neck thing with holes in it!
Hobbs suede boots. I hate them, a bad eBay purchase but haven't got round to getting anything else.
Knackered Anita underwired feeding bra. Mind you, it's lasted me 16 months of near constant wear. But yes, I should go and buy some decent normal bras as I don't feed my kid at work!
Rolex
Serge Lutens A La Nuit
Burberry classic trench coat (a recent splurge as a treat for going back to part-time work)
Red lipstick

I think I need to raise my game a bit!

SerenityNowakaBleh · 01/03/2010 15:24

I'd given up on this thread, came back to it and there's tons of posts!

Today, I am mostly wearing:

  • A line skirt from Zara (new, doing my head in as it keeps on clinging to my tights. ARGH)
  • Black opaque tights
  • Black ballet pump-type things
  • Pale blue shirt from Gap (with tiny checks) that I lurve to bits and have decided I should try to find more of
  • Navy blue cashmere jumper, Uniqlo
  • Pale blue Pashmina, around shoulders as office is freezing
  • Patterned pashmina on legs because of freezing office. I might as well give up and wear a snow suit to work
  • Silver necklace that I found when unloading the washing machine. That was the third time this poor necklace has been through the machine
