Impulse/ fall in love buys and were they successful....

[impty]

Inspired by the cloak thread.

Tartan silk cocktail dress..... worn twice out (don't get invited to many cocktail parties) however, it is tried on frequently and my dds noth want it when I die.

McQueen ankle boots which I decided against- then, decided in the car leaving the car park that HAD to have them so ran out of car to buy them whilst dh drove around and around waiting for me. Have wirn loads so they were a definite success.

Black floor length gown, worn twice but again, its a lovely lovely dress and I try it on just to swish about in... I still love it.

An Equipment silk shirt with zebras running across it - this is my favourite workwear item, though is quite distinctive so I have to space out wears!

A Tibi sweatshirt with a lobster printed on the front - a great everyday favourite

Leather skinnies - worn regularly and were a pleasing 70% off in the matches sale

Zebra print Gucci shoes - only worn once in the 3 months I've had them, but think I will wear out tonight to rectify.

Great thread idea. Stella McCartney long black tuxedo jacket. It's not my normal style at all, not being sure if I would keep it, but I bought it last spring and when it's not raining I wear it pretty much every day.

May be we should also start a 'the one that got away thread?' Those things which we should have bought at the time, and then regretted, or when we went back they gone. I'm have a load of those ... A D&G black studded bag for £199 is the Selfridges sale 12 years ago, an Acquascutum winter grey herringbone grey coat about 8 years ago ...

Julian McDonald full length gothic silk skirt. Hoping to fit into again after dc3 is produced around May time.
