I am quite a 'fast fashion' type of girl, rather than always going for timeless classics and I get bored of clothes quite quickly. However, today I put on my favourite ever cardigan that I bought absolutely years ago from Warehouse and realised that I will NEVER get rid of it! It is a grey knit cardi, kind of a longline shape but not baggy. It used to have black buttons but they have all come off (although the button holes are so small, you cant tell it once had buttons), the wrists are starting to look a bit frayed and there is a small hole in the armpit, but I still think it looks great! It is a very flattering shape despite me being a bit fatter than when I bought it and it goes with everything. I love it!
Other things I have had for years and have no intention of ever throwing out are:
A denim mini skirt from topshop
Another cardigan from primark - grey and black striped, although not quite as nice as the grey one!
A purple t-shirt with a sort of 3d satin bow on it (sounds gross, but isnt!) from new look - really great quality t shirt, although it has got deodorant marks on it that wont come out now
Martha jeans (although I guess once these get the inevitable hole in the crotch I will have to get rid).
A purple pea coat from Asda
I totally love my 'just sheepskin' uggs as well, but after 6 winters they have holes in so I have just got some new Ugg Australia ones that I am hoping will last as long - I know uggs are not really the mumsnet way, but I really like them!
Funnily enough all the items that I have spent loads of money on I have got bored of or have worn out quite quickly!
