G'wan, fess up. How much did you spend in the sales?

I am ashamed to say I went a bit crazy. In my defence, I was on a spending ban from dec 2012 until Nov 2013. I've ended up spending almost 2 weeks' wages. Wallet has closed for the next 6 months at least.

What shall I do for penance? Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa....

About £100 I think

Hobbs dress at £55
And a couple of jumpers from Newlook

I had saved some cash for a bit of a splurge but the weather was bloody awful and I ended up with a crappy cold so didn't really make it out to the shops

Easter - I'm not keen on the dress tbh but I don't really like monochrome. But those boots are stunning, love them! But only get them if you're good at looking after stiletto heels, I am crap and they get trashed.

Easter, love the boots, hate the dress.

Easter- the dress is not worth that amount- you could get the same type much much cheaper.

The boots are nice but very much a 'statement' imo and there is no way I could walk in them.

The dress has a tricky neckline. I think it makes the model look hippy.

Ash Spiral boots in 'vision'. Can't decide whether to exchange them for black.

Lots of other bits, all of which are getting returned.

Forgot to mention: cotton/cashmere jumpers and cardis from H&M. Both in black and grey and a total bargain. Not here yet though.
