Claire is wearing a dark teal scrunchie [Leeds Kirkgate Market], green mottled men's t-shirt [Primark, from charity shop], white floral trousers [jumble sale], zebra-print thermal socks [George at Asda] and white creepers [charity shop].
Covadonga is wearing a magenta silk tank top [Adini, from a charity shop].
I've had these for ages, but it's never been the right time to wear them. Until now!!
Partly because they're trousers with a tie waist and partly because they're white. I have a fear of wearing white nowadays, unlike my white school polo-shirts, I care about the clothes I own now and don't wish to stain them irreparably. And white is a sitting target for that kind of thing. Quite literally, I've been slightly paranoid about sitting on a liquid or stained surface accidentally all day. The waist tie is a great addition, it highlights my waist nicely. The only issue is that my zip keeps undoing itself about two inches because there's no eye and hook or clasp to keep it zipped shut. But the most important thing is that they fit me! Trousers that fit someone with a big arse and a smaller waist on a long body with short legs are rare, and I have snagged a pair!! They're tight enough to show me off, but not to demand that I stand and avoid bending down at all costs.
I have felt fabulously floral all day and I'm thoroughly glad I opted for green to match the leaves rather than pink, I was complimented for my colour choice today too!
