New purchases?

[Theycalledmethewildrose]

I was wondering if people would be interested in a thread showing their new buys?

There are some posters, like Floisme, whose comments I always jump to as in my head I know what style they wear as I like similar stores. I'd love to see the clothes people buy as I'm sure they spot items that I miss and see something in clothes that I don't but should if I had enough imagination and creativity. I also love seeing clothes that wouldn't suit me or my shape but look stunning on others.

It is fair that I go first but I have returned all my recent purchases as I want to lose some weight. My most recent buy is this dress from Cos. I am still awaiting its arrival. If anyone has it, I'd really appreciate your thoughts on it.

I know, Flo, it really adds up. You forget until you see it all in a list. I got a wee bit of a fright! Annoying the links aren't working for you. Took bloody ages on the phone too. They're nothing earth shattering tho, you're not missing much. Apart from the espadrilles. And the cashmere sweater. Total bargain if it wears ok.

Have definitely decided to return the pink lace thing. Far too big and just not nice enough to keep. If in doubt...send it back. If in doubt, send it back. Répétez vous

Gorgeous Rebecca Minkoff Regan satchel

It's got more than a touch of the Balenciaga City bag about it, but it's way way more practical (and a third of the price)

I also got this &Otherstories dress

A weird random collection of stuff outside my comfort zone this week.
Mango dress and topshop t shirts (I had the original one 25 years ago!)

Going to a festival next week and wondering if these wellies and raincoat won't look too tragic on a fat mum

Wellies and coat

@bananafish81 I love that dress but I can't wear it with no bra.

Please enjoy it!

These trews have just arrived and I love them! A bit rustley when I walk but I quite like that. Well done M&S!

Plus these www.boden.co.uk/en-gb/womens-shoes-boots/flats/ar727-gld/womens-gold-metallic-coated-canvas-florence-flat-point in navy but they are going back as too hard round the ankles and I can't be arsed to wear them in.

These www.marksandspencer.com/pure-cotton-cuffed-hem-tapered-leg-trousers/p/p60104937?image=SD_01_T59_6400A_Y0_X_EC_90&color=BLACK&prevPage=srp#

They have a lovely button cuff detail. Plus aren't pull on as said in the blurb, they have a hook and bar fastening. Elasticated bit I don't mind too much as covered by my shirt.

Nice trousers. I will certainly be trying those on! :)

Lots of lovely things on this thread. I'm not buying anything at the moment as I've got my eye on some pricey A/W stuff so I'm saving my pennies.
If anyone needs any classic round neck cashmere/merino jumpers Zara has them in the men's sale size medium for £19.99. They had navy and black was very tempted but I really don't need them.

I've not bought anything recently apart from a lightweight anorak....it was from Cotswold Outdoors so nuff said...
