A sparkly biker jacket from warehouse this one which will be very useful for the 5 million weddings I'm attending next year.

and a silk blouse from Massimo Dutti.

A cashmere shawl from the White Company, a dress from Brora, a dress and jumper from Great Plains, TWO ted baker coats for DH, some bedding from Zara home, pj bottoms from Hush and two jumpers from phase eight. A mahoosive amount of money, but had a really really horrible year and an inheritance (the two are very much linked!).

knitknack · 27/12/2012 16:02

i LOVE that sequin jacket < sits on hands >

Beaverfeaver · 27/12/2012 16:25

A nice sleep cami set and a book

Karbea · 27/12/2012 17:06

I've got myself a Kate spade clutch, earrings, bracelet and green silk blouse... All whilst DH was taking a nap... That'll teach him!

uptheamp · 27/12/2012 17:07

2madboys · 27/12/2012 17:25

Brown leather handbag from John Lewis sale - was £119, I paid £49.50 Grin.

RooneyMara · 27/12/2012 17:27

A few things from Toast (I hope - no confirmation email yet! Probably all sold out) and some half price plastic boxes from Staples, to help with new toy overload. Thrilling Grin

AmberNectarine · 27/12/2012 17:40

An Alexander Wang Rocco, Sandro jumper, Whistles cardigan, White Company scarf and an American Vintage cardigan. Oh and before Xmas a Zoe Karssen sweater.

JessBrodysTits · 27/12/2012 17:48

Ahhhhhhhhh! Nothing! I can't find ANYTHING worth my spendies. And not for the want of trying.

NotEnoughJamOnTheBread · 27/12/2012 17:49

A lovely mirror from Laura Ashley reduced from £200 to £100. Didn't even have to move my bum from the sofa as I used my new Nexus to do it Xmas Smile

Zwitterion · 27/12/2012 19:12

A couple of unstructured jackets from Great Plains. A Jaegar quilted leather evening bag, and an enormous slouchy tan leather hobo type bag from House of Fraser.
Two pairs of sparkly flats from New Look.
Black and grey striped wool sweater with burgundy sleeves from a boutique near me.
Two cheapy cocktail rings - one pale blue and silver, one diamanté bow.

Still hunting for some black suede wedges (Clarks haven't discounted theirs yet)

Djembe · 27/12/2012 19:36

Bright pink knitted sweater - Next
Long really soft grey cardi - Next
Fur jacket - Next
Navy jersey skater dress - £6! - New Look
Claret peplum top - £7! - New Look
Sparkly black ankle boots - £10! - New Look

And have a basket of Hush goodies... currently it's 25% off everything in their 'pre-sale' and it's a gamble whether to wait til their proper 60% off sale or not... not sure my items will go into sale or not! Hmm

My dream bag hasn't gone into sales

Sky blue capacious skinny-sleeved cashmere jumper from Uniqlo (thanks to dexter73) for a lean 50, but I'm holding out for mega-cheapness final reductions for everything else.

Bought a nice Johnstons tartan blanket for our cat, hem.

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 27/12/2012 20:39

oooh Oooh

I was in Tesco today, dragged off to clothes by my DD (who at 10.6 yo is unfeasibly tall,, slim and gorgeous) who wears ladies size 6 or 8 not girls clothes now.

I saw some half price cashmere (£20 from £40)
Alot of lairy colours and sizes limited selection. But I got a camel V neck jumper.
And machine washable (unlike the Uniqlo that is dry-clean)

I've got a gentle hand wash cycle on the machine and lingerie bags plus nice gentle washy liquid.

Anya Hindmarch bag, DvF coat, Pure Collection silk shirt, DvF jacket, Hush pajamas.

Djembe · 27/12/2012 22:44

Decameron Hush are only on their presale with 25% off - the pjs will be 60% off from 8th Jan! Although I am worried they will sell out of popular dresses and may succumb early too...

Mumelie · 27/12/2012 22:52

Boots, boots and more boots ;0)

libertychick · 27/12/2012 23:19

I have bought this jumper in the blue/gunmetal. It's a keeper.

Ordered this dress and this blouse but they haven't arrived yet and I'm already thinking they may go back.

I want some boots, watching an anglomania top and also poised for the Hush sale.

FrancesFarmer · 27/12/2012 23:26

These boots from Toast.

This dress and this dress by Jaeger.

Waiting for the Brora sale as I hope to pick up a cashmere sweater or two...
