what have you bought for summer?

[madammecholet]

I have recently got these little lovelies...

hobbs breton with RED voucher

25% off GAP curvy jeans

red hunter wellies

and I want this for mothers day!!

Summer? You're optimistic. We're barely out of February!

Talking of optimism, I'm wondering how your kids are going to afford your mothers' day present .

I bought a few things in Boden, although it was the A/W sale they have been bought for S/S.

Vintage Denim skirt only £19 with £10 off voucher
A couple of camis for £9 each
Cosmopolitan Tee for £12.50
Capris (which were actually bought at the end of last summer and put away)
And a cropped cardi just in case summer isn't that sunny...

I also bought some ballerina flats from Clarks with a voucher code I found on here, they were already reduced and the voucher took them down to £10

Oh, and I bought this maxi dress from ebay

I bought a fab cobalt blue jersey maxi dress today. Have been looking for something similar for ages without luck and stubbled randomly across it in Primark. £12. Bargain.

Havingkittens THATS why I am thinking of summer....as its still on Feb and dreary!!

Re mothers day, one can live in hope & I did save on the top and jeans though!! Hee hee.... tbh I am looking forward to my sticky goo brekkie...!

Jemima loving those capris, which colour did you get??

I also saw this today which looked absolutely gorgeous.

Have talked myself out of it because i) expensive; ii) I am about to have a baby therfore will not have a waist for most of summer iii) Have you tried BF in a high necked dress?!

Think someone elese should have the benefit of it though

Oh and my gold tweed Alexa was definitely a "for summer" purchase. Not least because I don't dare get it wet

I have had a little Boden splurge ready for summer

Bought it as "practical" worn over body whilst pushing pram - whatdayathink?

bugger don't know why link has done that - sorry!

this is all so far!I bought the navy and white like the pic and then another in white with dark grey stripe which isn't on teh website.Thoroughly recommend for the busty like me!

here

noddy that top is gorgeous...

forgot to mention just how I am over the Alexa nancy, will have to console myself with the Peony & Moore cream bag for sure now..

Shall I mention that it was 30% off in the sale!

Your mothers day bag is also rather lovely though

I also like the top noddy - may get one in the navy.

Bargain nancy, well done you, look at how much you saved!!

.. I do love the P&M bag, but just bought another one from them so I cannot justify another this month! I live in hope my DH reads this thread....ha ha!!

definitely wanting the blue and white heart print maxi dress from Yumi

lol madammecholet the thing is I live in an area where there aren't many Boden wearers so I can indulge my liking for it without looking like a clone. Usually only in the sales though!

The capri pants are denim, which is quite boring but I know I will wear them lots.

same as you jemima. Not many Boden wearers here. Hurrah!

Nothing yet but I am off to Zara in a minute to have a mooch!

jemima & meggles I have plenty of Boden clothes...so does DH and the children...I was merely impressed at your stash!!

I've been lusting after this

silk dress

:)

Just bought this with 25% off, using UKSPRING25 code:

navy banana republic top

I'm currently having a gloat about this

have been wanting a 40s tea dress for ages and couldn't find the perfect one; in fact I think I saw this one before and just laughed at the price.

now I'm just hoping it won't need too much ironing.

Whats the fit like seth ? Love the hawthorn and indigo one...am tempted..??

that's the one I've got.
It's got plenty of space in the lower half (and ties at the waist), not terribly roomy at the top: I am a small-waisted 12 with big shoulders and a 32D bust and it just fits me on the top.

I put it on and it looked frumpy then I remembered I was wearing a bad bra so I swapped to a better one and suddenly it looked lovely, which makes me think it would not work with a bust that is too big .
