Anyone got anything good in the sales?

I fancy a splurge but so far have bought a bedding set and a curtain pole Hmm

I've seen a shirt on Cos that I've had my eye on for a while but the model is 181cm and it's not short on her so it'd be down to my ankles.

Some decent work trousers would be good. And I wouldn't mind a new leather handbag.

Anyone want to share sale purchases?

Nice bargains! Mowglik, I've got the JL poncho in grey, bought last year. It's gorgeous and the cashmere is fantastic quality, especially for the full price, let alone at the discounted price!

I've got a few bits in Cos, will try to link...

top
jumper
basic top
another basic in black and white
nice top

Also a navy cotton top with a big tie at the back of the neck, but bought in store, can't find it online.

H bought me gift vouchers to Cos for Xmas hence the splurge!

All of the All Saints tops went back, as did the Mulberry Tessie. For the same price as one Mulberry I've bought this bag in this red and also cobalt blue:

I got this Stila highlighter palette in M&S - still £19 but I love it :-)

I've also ordered this Jaeger cashmere coat, reduced from £399 to £99 with an extra £50 off a £200 spend, so I also ordered a couple of cashmere jumpers and one was effectively free:

That coat is gorgeous nigella, I've just ordered similar but no where near as nice from Zara.

I've bought

A pair of black over the knee boots-asos
A pair of jeans-Zara
A pair of bright red Adidas gazelles
A pair of peep toe suede ankle boots-asos

My next two purchases are going to be a Bella Freud jumper and a cashmere jumper I've seen and loved. Unfortunately neither went in the sale so I'm waiting til the end of the month as they are quite expensive!

I bought the same coach bag as Sammy but in black. It was in sale before Christmas so was my present to myself. I had some money from my parents. It's a lovely style and don't think it will date.
The scout hobo is lovely and was swithering over which one to get but went for the Sophia tote as I already have a Fossil hobo.

Wine velvet fit and flare dress £15 reduced from £28 from Dorothy Perkins.

taybert · 31/12/2016 18:20

I've done ordering:
Dress
T shirt
Also got an animal print temple beam bag from Clarks. I seem to have gone a little animal.

Yes, I got this leather bag, can't wait to receive it! I wanted it in tan but was stymied by having to wait for a new bank card and they had sold out by the time it arrived today. But also love the black, so hey ho Smile

Nothing else, although I have my eye on a few things...

bearsnumberonefan · 01/01/2017 07:39

I also bought the John Lewis cashmere poncho but in grey, a grey mint velvet t shirt, and a new phone case. I'm now on a zero spend 2017 Sad

PNGirl · 01/01/2017 09:53

Just ordered the Scout Hobo in khaki!

gunsandbanjos · 01/01/2017 10:10

Mulberry Tamara scarf in blue/black half price in the John Lewis sale.

CointreauVersial · 01/01/2017 13:57

Well done, PNGirl - you won't be disappointed!

I had a late surge and have ordered:

Hush Cropped Winona trousers.
White trainers (Stan Smiths plus a couple of alternatives, in case they don't fit!)
Whistles jeans.
M&S top in red (not sure if I'm keeping, as it's a little short).

SingaSong12 · 01/01/2017 17:46

John Lewis sheepskin gloves. They were odd so £15 not the £25 sale price (originally £50). luckily for me my hands are odd sizes as well. To get a good fit like this I'd normally need to buy two different pairs of gloves.

rockingthelook · 01/01/2017 21:18

I am obviously looking in the cheaper ends of the sales, went to Next outlet yesterday and got a black skirt for £2 and a navy dress £3 for work, both perfect! delighted :)

CointreauVersial · 01/01/2017 22:43

SingaSong12 - when you said "odd" I was thinking you bought two left or right hands, and was trying to work out how you were going to make that work!

Dancergirl · 03/01/2017 00:10

remus have you found any nice jumper dresses? I am also looking.
