I've just got back from shopping and have to regale you all with my finds as I just had one of those days where everything went right for me. Normally I steer clear of what I consider the more expensive high st shops and pretty much stick to Primark, Peacocks, DP and New Look at a push. But my friend always comes home with fab clothes at bargainous prices that she picks up in the sales of shops that I would never normally even look in. So today I thought I would just mooch around and look in some different shops. I've been craving getting a pair of yellow shoes and perhaps a yellow dress for ages, but said I wouldn't buy any more clothes until LO is born.
Anyway, went into Wallis and founds some fab yellow wedges 25% off, so £26, but put them back with my usual "I don't need these" guilt complex kicking in. Was just on my way home from town and passing Oasis, saw some sale signs and popped in (Don't usually go in there as think it's v over priced). Found a gorgeous sunshine yellow dress reduced from £60 to £18. Sized 14, pre pg was a 12 so ummed and ahhed as have no idea what size I am going to be afterward this baby is born (see yesterday's post re: size 16-18 trackie bottoms!), noticed a button had come off (but comes with a spare) and the lady offered to take another 10% off - that sold it to me, and bought it anyway as she said I could take it back within 28 days (LO will hopefully be here by then!). So went back to Wallis and decided that there is no point in having a yellow dress and no shoes to go with it, fortunately they were the perfect shade. Paid for them and on my way spotted some bags and thought well there's no point having yellow dress, yellow shoes if I haven't got a bag to go with them - found a lovely beach style wicker one with a yellow ribbon £23 reduced from to £7.50. Brill - it was just so my shopping day today - and not even ruining it with my usual guilt over spending money as after this it will all be baby stuff! Plus, bought a couple of bath bombs in Lush and they gave me and end of line one free (they never advertise that they are doing this so I think they just give away stuff to customers if they are nice to them - that's what I would do!).
Anyway, sorry for that boring ramble but I just had to share my happy shopping day with someone!
