That's just it really. I have just spent the last 2 months giving my wardrobe an entire re-vamp thanks to S&B - I have chucked out loads and bought almost an entire new wardrobe lots of new things for winter.

Thing is, we've just decided we need to get away for some winter sun after a crappy year and now I don't have any summer clothes as I wasn't planning on sorting that part out until the spring at least. I hae no idea what to get, never mind where I can buy summer clothes at this time of year. I think I need some cropped jeans for a start, but also some tops,dresses etc???
We are going to the Canaries so it will be low 20s I guess...

Any ideas?

I need help too!

Just had a baby and living in Sydney and bloody hate a lot of the clothing out here.

I also need casual tops and dresses and the like.

Fat Face sale had some summer stuff I noticed the other day (in-store) and I'm pretty sure I saw some swimwear in Matalan today so it may be that shops are starting to stock it again everywhere.

Bravissimo have some sale swimwear which may be worth a look, if you could find your size!

No one else is replying because we are all Envy that you are going to the sunshine while we're stuck in the cold and rain! Grin

Some bargainous sandals from Aldo too.

I haven't actually helped with the clothes. Perhaps try Asos?

Next online have lots of summer clothes in their clearance section.

Curly i have no S&B advice but we went to the canaries in the winter and the temp was 20 degrees but I stupidly didnt realise that the sun was just as strong as I am an idiot and so I got burnt. You'll need some cover ups for your vest tops.

thanks guys.

LittlePanda sandals is one thing I already have!!

YouBrokeMySmoulder thanks, yes I know we have been a few times over the festive period or in Jan. It can be quite hot.

I didn't think of Next online, thanks strawberry I will try them now...
