I went to a charity sale today and (amongst other things) bought these boots which I have been hankering after for a while, and they were 90% off .

What have you bought this weekend?

Top trumps amethyst!

Nothing here, except went to supermarket for Sunday Times and ended up spending £100+ on food.

Clothes- hope to get something nice this week.

AmethystMoon · 22/10/2012 09:04

Mmm can't wear it though.... Need clothes to celebrate house purchase Grin

MarshaBrady · 22/10/2012 09:10

Yes, yes you do Grin

A coat for DH who is going to Moscow today and didn't have a smart coat.

A fluorescent green t-shirt and hat for DS for a show he is doing at school tomorrow.

Also a three pack of gloves for DS.

A pink hairbrush and hair bands thingie to add to Xmas present stash for my niece.

Slippers for me.

That was all on Saturday.

Then yesterday I went to collect DS from a sleepover to discover he had been to the park and destroyed his school shoes. Had trainers with him but couldn't open laces so wore his school shoes and got them soaked. So ended up doing a quick nip to Clarks and getting him new shoes. Bought half size up so they are too big now but he can go back to his other shoes tomorrow when they are dry and the new ones will do later in year. No way was I wasting £45 on another pair of school shoes.

Today I will be buying wallpaper and paint for my bedroom. And trying to decide between two pairs of ankle boots from Hobbs.

MrsCB I had forgotten about the toast jacket, then saw the black one in JL and thought of you! the shape was perfect on me, so have ordered the brown. Thanks for recommending it, wouldn't have thought to try it otherwise.

I have ordered a pair of ridiculously expensive les chiffonnier leather leggings from NAP that should arrive today. I will report back here Grin
