Designer labels - who cares?

Ms Mizuna was photographed still in bed at 07.33, lazy wotsit, sporting a pair of men's pyjamas bought at WH Smith in her local hospital for £15 when she unexpectedly ended up staying there for two weeks. When she eventually emerges from her own bed she'll don a pair of Thailand hippy trousers bought at a market stall, a charity shop shirt and home-made jewellery costing £0 but priceless.

Thanks LBC 1955 for starting the thread best Laugh out Loud I have had in a long time and thanks ladies for your comments I am all of you rolled into one .

Thank you TillyTrotter.

Happy Birthday Chocolatelovinggran 🥳 🎉 💐 🎁 🍾 🥂 🎂
You can wear exactly what you want on your Birthday, and any other day.
I just want to post this ……. many will know it but it is kind of apt for this thread.

I certainly don't (care about Labels)

Loving this thread ladies. It's my birthday so I'm wearing clean clothes, makeup and jewellery. No one who sees me regularly would recognise me...

My 1yr old cocker spaniel, since I rehomed her 2months ago...chewed up one of my purple flipflops ...and a black expensive flipflop...but now I'm wearing a purple and a black one and quite happy to do so...because of this happy and hilarious thread..🐕😁

Wow Callistemon, you saw the celebrity and social influencer Big Bertha? In the flesh? Could you get close to her? Is it true she's going on Love Island?

Shh, she asked me not to tell anyone.

No, not Love Island, she's off to Pebble Beach!

BigBertha , who belies her name tag , entered the golf club wearing a rather sweaty far too tight Green Lamb navy and white polo shirt (£25 sale price), slightly baggy and rather muddy navy Glenmuir pedal pushers (£60) and blue flip flops from a 2 year old Clarks collection. Bertha was fumbling with her 3 year old Surprizeshop golf shoe bag (£25), this season David Jones Lime Green bag (£35) with her club card clenched in her teeth. her mascara streaked face and wild unkempt hair told the tale of her 4 hour 18 hole round in a hurricane. The glass of chardonnay she ordered did not touch the sides.

😂😂😂

I think I saw you!

We were the ones who kept changing lunch tables outside to try to get out of the wind, ending up back where we started to the annoyance of our DHs.

Who was the celebrity?
The Daily Mail usually do this with celebs that they don’t approve of, to highlight how frivolous and vain they are.

It's just advertising.
She is probably a PR person who is paid to wear these overpriced items, the papers continue with the advertising and gullible people fall for it.

Ms Callistemon has been out to lunch wearing a pair of ankle grazers from M&S (no you can't buy any, they're 8 years old) a top by Dash (are they still in business?) and new trainers by Pavers, £64.99 (now available at £34.99, how annoying is that!).

This thread is hysterical--- a real tonic, thank you all who have made the effort==brilliant!!
Bountiful Bridget was looking forward to her perusal of the local park whilst looking as chic as ever. She sported her beautiful electric blue crocs which she had purchased in the middle aisle of a famous down-market supermarket, and was thrilled to have a reason to wear her charity shop bargain, a per una sloppy joe jumper in bright pink. Her saggy-at-the-knees pedal pushers still had some mileage in them, even though they were purchased many years prior. She was torn as to which bag to use, as she had two recently purchased on e-bay, one large and one small(both earth squared- great quality) . She decided on the larger bag, as she pondered whether a small cutting from park grown flowers may land in her bag, un beknown to her. She decided to forego any make up as she didn't anticipate bumping into anyone of any significance, and anyway, the natural look for her age-range was totally acceptable(basically she couldn't be ar**ed)

Unfortunately for the paparazzi Lady A did not make the much anticipated walk to the recycling bin.
A disappointed press are trudging wearily home.

We have been lunching with a friend in a locally well-known riverside pub. .

I wore my soft green Tui sweater (spring 2022) over my spotted dark green on light green trousers (M&S, 2021) and floral shirt (fat Face, 2019). My floral canvas shoes were bought in the sale in the French shoe shop chain, Chaussea, 2019. The whole ensemble , probably cost less than £70.

DH wore a recent dark green Lands End T shirt over Peter Chrstian bottle green cords. I think his shoes came from Cotton Traders.

I cannot for the life of me remember what DF was wearing and I am too lazy to walk next door and look, but probably deep cream shirt, over deep cream cotton trousers, the ones you wear for long walks on holiday - and a big red mac, from Cotton Traders, because it was raining.

Thanks for this thread Mrs Cardigans! it's really cheered up a gloomy Sunday.

I love this thread, it makes everyone so real!

Mrs HPQ, after tending her multiple houseplants, has spent the rest of the morning dashing, fetchingly, in and out to the garden to bring in, then hang out again, her laundry as the weather in her sought after village cannot make it's mind up. Said laundry is now blowing attractively in the wind, especially the white Bridget Jones style knickers bought for a very reasonable price from Amazon some years ago. Meanwhile, Mrs HPQ wears a pair of navy three quarter trousers, economically refashioned from a full pair of trousers, a floral cotton top, and no make up, latter being a gesture of her feminist views on the patriarchy combined with her devil may care attitude. As nobody has had a shower chez HPQ this morning, lunch at the local hostelry is out of the question, and there is an air of jovial tension in the kitchen as this wonderful couple try to last the longest before volunteering to cook lunch.

You’ve got to have their ages and how much their house is worth as well.

Oh yes, especially if there has been a tragedy. Knowing how much their semi in the suburbs is worth is meant to make us more sympathetic?

Ms Bluebelle has just got back from the allotment wearing a grey t shirt and pale grey floral baggy bottoms with black and pink trainers ( now in the washing machine ) she had on her back a charity bought back pack with all her tools and fresh vegis in She’s tired and now going to have a decaf coffee bought at B and M Her legs are decorated with the latest pretty splashes of matching grey mud

Mrs K left her home today wearing, M&S outlet jeans. A Tu T-shirt, eBay jumper and Birkenstocks. She never carries a handbag. She has a DH who is almost always with her and he carries the wallet etc.

Love this thread. Garnet is sitting at her PC supposed to be doing the household accounts while OH watches sport downstairs another one hoping that the cricket to resume. She is wearing an ancient pair of black leggings, an Under Armour sports top with a very old M&S winter cardigan. Her footwear which she has had for many years is at the moment surprisingly fashionable, a pair of Birkenstock Gizeh sandals!

Mrs CJ is slumped on the sofa wearing her favourite comfy linen mix Next trousers, one of her Weird Fish tops (which are only purchased in their online 30% off sales) and a pair of old slippers of undetermined make. She is contemplating going for a walk in the drizzle. However as this would involve exchanging glasses for contact lenses, dragging a comb through her hair and slapping a layer of foundation on so as not to frighten the waiting paparazzi and any small children that might be about, having another cup of tea seems the better option at the moment. Mr CJ is similarly slumped and attired, hoping against hope that the test match will resume at some point today.

To the right of Kate sits Mr Kate resplendent in baggy, black tracky bottoms, complete with blobs of paint. His outfit is completed by a white t shirt with a Madrid motif, a bobbly old cardigan, grey socks and scruffy sliders. We like to think of ourselves as the Posh and Becks of Birmingham.

Paparazzi gathered, with ladders, telescopic lenses and drones as Lady A emptied the Gtech AirRam this morning. Through the cloud of dust Lady A could be seen wearing grey ankle grazer chino's by Marks and Spencer. A three quarter length sleeve top in apple green, by White Stuff. Her choice of footwear for the occasion, beige leather, Sketcher, 'On The Go' sliders. Her jewellery, a silver torque with large, silver metal, knot earrings completed the ensemble.
Later in the day Lady A is expected to be seen emptying the recycling bin.

I love this thread ..its so cheered me up...we are all just so 'real'...😁
