What did you wear today, and how much did it cost?!

[thatsnotmymonkey]

I am fascinated by other peoples clothes so I love the threads where everyone goes into detail of what they wore. I would also like everyone to tot up the cost, as I am really nosey and also I still think about that Daily Mail article that the average woman has £250 of clothes on her back.

Blue straight leg jeans-£40, River Island
white vest £4-Asos
Green tropical fruit sandals-£1-Primark
Grey Waterfall cardi-£60-Whistles

So £105, pretty good I think. This does not include accessories, as I my sunnies and bag would push me over the £250 mark.

Millie1 - no, I bought it this time last year and it's probably been the best coat I have ever purchased! It has a detachable fleece lining which is currently not attached and has been worn so much it has more than definitely earned its keep, although I have started to feel a bit like that kid in East is East!

What I love most about it is that it actually looks chic! And another bonus is that I have another coat lining that fits in underneath making it doubly warm in the winter - I honestly don't know what I'd have done without it.

I hope you love it as much as I do :)

(Am currently lusting after another CdC coat and two pairs of their shoes )

Don't wear a bra as I have nothing to put in one. If I did, it would undoubtedly be from M&S.

Total: £35. A very standard day, I'd say.

Sansucre ... their coats are brilliant, am sure you're getting loads of wear from it. I ended up with the coat which is more of a trench in shape but again with the detachable lining and a hood (also with detachable fur lining) in a grey colour. It's lovely on - I was so torn between it and the parka. Am eagerly awaiting their sale - they have some lovely knitwear

whispers ... does everyone change their entire outfit every day??
