for you, that is? I started off thinking I didn't need anything. Have loads of nice stuff. But have just ordered a White Stuff top - that I really need Grin. So that's £42. That's it now til Xmas...

£145 and half of that was on shoes in the Kurt Geiger Sale

I have spent a complete fortune recently because I've gone from a size 20/22 to a size 10/12. And I'm completely unapologetic about it (although my Mastercard is creaking at the seams a tad Blush).

Wow Verso, well done. I would be shopping for Britain if I were you

tattycoram · 11/02/2011 15:08

I have bought... two pairs of boots in Kurt Geiger sale £90, a navy white company dress £29 ish I think, a top and a cardigan in Toast sale, £27 and £30, a leather satchelly type bag on ebay £15 - hasn't arrived yet, no idea if it will really be nice.

Also, just ordered some Breton style tops from M&S.

Am three months post natal and feeling very fat - plus bf means too many opportunities for internet shopping

Thanks, tatty. I think my DH is getting a bit Hmm about the mountain of parcels arriving every single day from time to time but I LOVE IT! Grin

Loving that everyone is getting into Kurt Geiger and Breton tops. Is this the new MN uniform then rather than Boden? I had to send my KG boots back as they were a tad too high and I already had a stripey top from GAP - does that count??

£110- coat, Monsoon sale
£30- shoes, Monsoon sale

Arrrrgh!!! Thought I'd been good! Quite shocking actually considering I feel that I haven't treated myself recently. Awful! Feel a bit shameful now.

Hats off to Verso that is an amazing achievement!

Sale purchases:
$20 - cardigan
$17 - Calvin Klein bra
$8 - coral butterfly scarf
£100 in M&S on undies, a cardi and I can't remember what else as it's been delivered to my sisters in UK, will be like xmas all over again when I go back next month and open the parcel!

LaurieFairyCake · 11/02/2011 15:45

About £500 so far - Boden, Brora, White Company sales plus I just got some lovely grey suede Fitflop boots for £60 in the sale.

I think the sales have been amazing this year. I don't need to buy anything else now. I don't really wear summer stuff, I just take my cardigans off Grin

currently drooling over a Toast coat which was £300 - now down to £81. But I have to sit on my hands as even though I really need a nice coat I will have to get about 2 foot chopped off the bottom as I'm a midget.

BecauseItoldYouSo · 11/02/2011 16:01

Wow Verso way to go!!!! That is AWESOME!! I would be shopping like crazy as well if I had acheived what you have.

Perfect excuse to flex your credit card.
