PMT Challenge - Days 27-31 Catch Up

Here's the second installment of my PMT outfit round up posts!

PMT Challenge - Days 22-26 Catch Up

So things got a bit manic towards the end of April and I didn't have time for full outfit posts.

But here's a quick round up of the last outfits in the PMT Challenge. I'll split it into a few parts to keep the posts from being too long.


Day 22

I wasn't sure about this outfit, but I went ahead with it anyway.

Cardi - Boohoo
Shirt - TM Lewin (via charity shop)

Day 23

Day 23 I skipped, as I was sick. There might be a do-over at the end of the challenge!


Day 24

Back on it with a colourful spring outfit.

Cardi - Next Tall (via eBay)
Top - Boohoo Tall
Skirt - Long Tall Sally (via eBay)

So this is the day 18 outfit I didn’t wear the previous day. It’s unlike me to not wear jeans on casual Friday but these olive pants are fairly casual anyway, and probably less warm than jeans. The heat had abated from the previous couple of days although the forecast was still for warm sunshine. A light jacket was just the job (although it was still five days before April 25th, which is officially Light Jacket Day).

So, this isn’t an outfit I would have come up with by myself, and I’m still not sure on the teal/olive combo, but that’s what the outfit guide said so I went with it. Loving the striped blazer with the teal top though! And for me, part of this challenge was to get over my, not ‘fear’ exactly, but apprehension about pairing red and green shades outside of December. So I added a red necklace and shoes as my accessories, rather than going with navy shoes which was my natural instinct.

How to smarten up ripped jeans for the office: add a blazer, blouse and dressy (pointed) flats. Or you could add heels if that’s your thing but (whispers) I don’t really wear heels any more.

I’m not sure I’ve mentioned this here, but you probably will have noticed that since I started walking to work almost two years ago the number of pairs of heels I wear has diminished to almost none. Time was when I couldn’t resist a pretty pair of heels, but now I am just ‘gimme all the trainers’. I am a flats and trainers girl these days predominantly, with the odd pair of heels thrown in for a special occasion. I hardly recognise myself. J

I tried to make this outfit spring-like with the light colours, but it was dull and rainy and so tights were still a necessity. It’s progress that they were regular tights though, not the fleece-lined variety. Baby steps. And the cosy cardi allowed me to wear my trench coat rather than a proper coat so that’s spring too.

I knew my office might be warm enough to shed the cardi so it was important that the outfit work without it too, which it does.

This is another bonus outfit from the challenge I mentioned the other day. I feel like this challenge is going to be good for me in that I will finally get over my fear of green (olive) and red together (I always think it gives off a Christmas vibe).

Waking up to yet another wet and miserable day I finally conceded defeat that it was still winter outside and put on boots. And then the weather warning for the snow at the weekend got upgraded to amber and it was definitely still winter outside.
