On another forum I used to frequent there was a monthly 'What have you bought?' thread. It was absolutely amazing for help finding new things to buy! I'm in desperate need of inspiration so hoped you'd all think this is a fun idea and hop on in to leave links to your purchases throughout Feb...

Quiet so far for me this year.

Selling a few valuable things on eBay this week so may treat myself to this Coach bag. Can't decide - mahogany or tan?

New bra and matching panties from Victoria's Secret. (Recently had a fitting and discovered I was wearing the wrong bra size!)

Three shirts and three belts - last time I tucked in a shirt was the 1980's!! Got lots of compliments. People didn't realize I had a nice figure since I was always wearing this hang out blouses and shirts that have been "in" for so long.

I am amazed at how much some of you have bought Shock not judging, just made me realise I am rubbish at buying things for myself.

I have bought Modern Muse perfume by Estée Lauder - it's lovely!
And a dress from New Look for £10, ready for my holiday in April.

I bought modern muse as well! I think this one might be a hit for Estée Lauder.

OP was that thread on Damsels by any chance?

I am feeling frumpy, lumpy and sleep deprived with a six week old baby so I'm trying to refresh my wardrobe and remember what I wore before maternity clothes:

Chevron maxi skirt

Anglomania dress

Ash Trainers

Tory Burch leopard pumps

Baukjen Westbourne dress

ASOS orchid print kimono

ASOS nude blazer

A whopping one thing for me this month - a cream Chan Luu scarf from here when they had an offer on earlier this month. I love my two Chan Luus, they are my favourite scarves by miles.

I bought this from Monki and had loads of nice comments today when I wore it to work with a navy crew neck. Mind you, it is a midi length so I rolled it up a bit as I prefer just slightly above the knee.
