Just being curious, as I just took delivery of my new silver Superga trainers from my Amazon delivery driver I realised I'd never heard of them until a few days ago and this forum! It made me wonder what this forum has led to people buying.

So far, for me, I'd never heard of the following, but am now the proud owner of or am waiting delivery of....

Silver Superga trainers (sending back for smaller size but love them!)
White Earth Spirit Sandals (awaiting delivery)
La Roche Posay face products (love them so much I'm on my second lot!)

Anybody else want to share -so I can shamelessly steal more ideas- Blush

So, my brand new Ebay white Earth Spirit sandals arrived today from Ebay (bargain at 7.99) and I LOVE them, so a big thanks for another great suggestion. Still waiting for my Nip & Fab stuff to arrive and am contemplating sending my silver Supergas back to try another size!

Need more suggestions.....more things I can't live without please??

What's the MN scarf?

BuzzKillington · 09/05/2017 19:14

The MN scarf was a gigantic leopard print jobby.

I had 2 - and wore them to death. It became a very dated look though.

What do u all use zoflora for?? I've used it for years in washing up water to wipe down sides (only if washing up water not filthy, usually in mornings after washing up relatively clean bowls and cups) I'm interested in other ideas???

EatsLeavesAndShit · 09/05/2017 19:39

You can put a capful of zoflora mixed with water in your washing machine to get the smells out of stinky gym kit / dog bed.

Put it in a spray bottle and spray before steam mopping so the steam smells nice.

Soak a cotton pad in zoflora then hoover it up, when you vacuum your room will smell of zoflora.

Put a zoflora soaked cotton pad behind radiators so it gives off a smell when the radiators come on.

Oh, so many things! Rose is my favourite.

What's S&B?

Dancergirl · 09/05/2017 20:19

Oh wow, I definitely need a Becksondergaard scarf

I love scarves, where do you buy Becksondergaard from and what's nice about them?

I'm tempted by Silver Supergas now! Do they come up very big/wide? I have narrow feet and fit Converse.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 09/05/2017 20:24

Supergas come up huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge.

Floisme · 09/05/2017 20:36

You're welcome Smile

(Though we should probably both thank Pattti Smith!)

Dyson cordless, love it!!!

(Oops, sorry just realised this was in style and beauty... dysons don't really come under that heading) Grin

Mrs9C · 09/05/2017 21:29

Although I had superga's on my list, I sent them right back, they were like boats on me! Only for the petite of feet!

mintmagnummm · 09/05/2017 21:37

Eatsleavesandshit thank you for those tips!! I'll definitely be doing the Hoover and radiator trick!

Tanfastic · 09/05/2017 21:38

Daniel Sandler watercolour blush. I'm a total convert. Love it!

Tanfastic · 09/05/2017 21:39

Oh and Babyliss big hair.

Jilsen red boots, with wide calves. Gorgeous.

Dancergirl · 09/05/2017 23:09

tan is it easy to apply?

UtahGirl12 · 09/05/2017 23:31

I find Superga's are massive! I've had to go down a size. Maybe the silver ones will be the Mumsnet version of wearing a red carnation! A secret signal to other mumsnet tees??

Are the silver ones ok if you're in your forties?? Or are they too try-hard?

TWOBANANAS · 10/05/2017 05:42

Forgot to add:

Boden stuff
Anti chafing stuff as a primer
And far too many bottles of SJP Lovely

TheDowagerCuntess · 10/05/2017 06:19

BBH - onto my 5th one now

Right-sized bras

Gap girlfriend pants

I'm sure there are loads more.
