Okay – right this minute – what are you wearing?

Moi, from the bottom up: bare feet, Next jeans, turquoise, V-neck, sleeveless top with a small sort of lacy appliqué decoration (one of those wrinkly fabrics you don't have to iron), a teal shrug, full face paint and blow-dried hair, plus two-tone watch, blue bead bracelet, pau shell pendant and earrings.

JessM Wed 30-May-12 20:28:31

Oh Gillieb - did you learn that from your gran?
It was the done thing in that generation , wearing pines soddit pines pinnies!!! you stupid operating system.
Their skirts were woollen and rarely if ever got cleaned. Crossover cotton pinnies were always worn to protect them unless "going out".

Anagram Wed 30-May-12 20:26:03

Apron! I have never possessed one....

Gally Wed 30-May-12 20:24:05

M&S jeans, blue; pink and white striped Land's End shirt; navy blue wool sweater, M&S; blue and white striped socks, Makro; navy blue shoes, Seibel. It's none too warm up here in Fife!!

GillieB Wed 30-May-12 20:23:19

Fuschia pink varnish on my toes, bare feet; navy jersey trousers (was wearing navy linen earlier, but have changed), patterned M&S smock top and grey cardigan - and, on the top of the lot, a red and white striped apron. I have the remains of makeup on (it went on at 9.30 this morning), and white pearl drop earrings and a fake pearl "floating" necklace. My wedding ring and a topaz and diamond ring are still on, but when I come in the house I immediately take off any other rings I am wearing, and my watch (and that's when I put on my apron!). I am afraid I feel uncomfortable if I haven't got my apron on in the house.

nelliedeane Wed 30-May-12 20:17:25

Oops sorry Annobel ...purple nail varnish..you minx grin but a classy onexx

Annobel Wed 30-May-12 19:55:28

Think you might be confusing me with Anagram, nellie, but I don't mind. I also forgot to mention the deep purple nail varnish on my toes. Very classy, don't you think? grin

ninathenana Wed 30-May-12 19:51:51

Mascara, (hardly ever seen without it!) rings and watch.

Well a girl has to leave something to the imagination grin Annobel [ wink]

Love you too soop,can just imagine your beautiful accent, I imagine you to sound like Janet from DR Finlay. Xxxxxx

JessM Wed 30-May-12 19:23:13

Wouldn't it be cool to have a team photo.
Just rubber gloves ! Risque (imagine the accent on the e please)
red nail varnish, extremely chunky "Cat" slip on sandals - soles are like tractor treads and tops wrap around black suede. Zara black linen trousers, a few years old. A whitish t shirt with black and grey flecks. scoop neckline (last year from Next. Earlier when i was running a meeting it was a rather simple tailored top, in a white, yellow and green print. but it was lined so i changed into cooler when i got home. Gratified to note that it used to be snug and now fits nicely). Chunky brass kind of necklace thing. plain Rotary watch. a bit of makeup inc, today bronzer to get my face nearer the colour of the rest of me.

soop Wed 30-May-12 19:15:49
