    Today I'm wearing my long Levis (free), fatface tunic (free), tesco coral undies (£9), silver pumps (asda £8) and my pink waterproof. Weather's miserable and cold.
    I too need to have a serious think about what to get for warmth ready for the winter. I want some stylish tops and think I'm going to have to go the way of several layers as I'm always cold.
    I read the comment about the fashionistas and was a bit hmm. I thought we were all showing how less is more and how not to be daunted by your wardrobe. I don't own anything horrendously expensive. It's about buying good quality clothes in the cheapest way possible. For me I find that having less stuff means less money wasted and affords me the time to plan my next purchases. Don't you think?!

    I'm wearing my best underwear.

    It's about 30 degrees here and I'm hoping that my pretty pants will cause the baby to kick off her exit purely for the spite of ruining them.

    Germany. It's so hot it's unpleasant - and humid. I'm hoping for a storm later on.

    Dark blue jeans, a peppermint green supersoft jumper (M&S mens department so it's all loose and snuggly to wear) and Dunlop Green Flash

    Even getting as far as the kitchen's a major effort at the moment - I'm not travelling to wherever you are! ;)

    Absolutely, its a great look that still looks fresh on all different ages and styles and really comfy too, I have a friend 6 years older than you and she looks great in this style, I learned from her that the key to getting this look right is wearing really great shoes, whatever the style flat or heeled. I also do this look with slightly shorter leggings/footless tights and uggs:)
    Thank you for this site Martin
    The time for change has come
    Good luck for the future

    Oh you definitely could! I think cotton leggings look really smart with a jersey tunic or loose fitting dress. Something with a bright, bold print would look great with black leggings, smart black flats and a bright cardi. I'm not a huge fan of footless tights though. Just my opinion!
