What have you bought or are coveting for this spring?

[BanyanTree]

I stopped buying winter wear before Christmas and bought nothing in the sales. I've been saving it for spring/ summer. I have been looking online and am totally uninspired.

Come inspire me. What will you be wearing or have bought for this spring?

I bought a polka dotted asymmetric skirt

I am also looking for a kimono to wear with jeans, something like this: www.net-a-porter.com/gb/en/product/993619/Gucci/le-jardin-de-rose-grosgrain-trimmed-printed-silk-twill-robe

with a couple of digits knocked off from the price, though.

I recently got reminded about a bag i've been wanting for aaages in another thread. I think once Feb rolls over i'll be able to get it, or hint towards it for V-day. Just can't decide if I want to go full on spring yellow, or something a bit more "everyday". My instincts keep saying go bright... www.elvisandkresse.com/collections/womens-bags/products/tote-bag?variant=26645004615

I'm on the hunt for some slightly wider than straight leg white denim jeans. I've found the pair I want from Raey, but I totally failed at no spending this year so far and have naughtily given up, and no more parcels can arrive in the near future or DP will be annoyed (thankfully he is only annoyed by all the packaging we accumulate )

@AnaViaSalamanca Check out Zara if you want to try it out for a less astronomical price. I have loads from there and find most to be of good quality. They occasionally do actual silk too. The good ones tend to sell out quickly but you can find them on eBay quite often for a little more than retail price.

Nothing much! I thought the sales were absolutely awful this year. I bought two pairs of pyjamas. I need a light spring jacket but I haven't seen one I like. (What I really want is the Paul & Joe one I left on a night bus in Hackney eight years ago)

I've decided I'm going to buy a pair of boot cut white jeans, perhaps with the hems cut off, or a pair of straight leg Levis white 501's. Whichever looks the most flattering. Other than that I have no idea. I'll be starting the hunt for the perfect white t-shirt that I can buy in multiples soon.

Agreed. Sales were absolute bullocks (the total of 15 minutes I spent browsing before having a mini-mental-breakdown).. but then again, when was the last time they were good?

I've bought a rather nice pair of flat ankle boots from Clark's. £70 down from £90. But well made and very comfortable.

I'm on bloody no spend until 1at April but I have my spring summer list all ready!
I want/need
Unstructured but slightly fitted blazer x2 - one nude camel and the other light grey
Tan high waisted chino style skinnies
Grey skinny tuxedo style pants ideally with a purple side stripe
3 equipment style shirts in white, camel nude and grey
Accents of violet purple - maybe a MJ bag of can find one on ebay and a plain slouch tee
Grey wedges of some description - would love some gladiator leather ones or maybe a deep v shoe boot type - this is going to be the hardest to track down on my wishlist I think.
I am Miss Cheap when it comes to clothes so if anyone can point me in the right direction then fab.
Just aiming for a fairly neutral look but with flashes of the AS 18 colour violet which luckily happens to be one of my favourite colours but maybe too full on head to toe. I think it will go well with grey and tans though.

I've been searching for brown leather boots, just below the knee. Can't find them anywhere!

Want a pair of grey skinny cords or jeans too. Preferably a darker grey, but not near black.

I shamelessly treated myself to some high waisted, heavy cotton Vivienne Westwood trousers Less than half price at the end of their sale.

For spring I mainly want a couple of cotton or silk shirts (if silk, I'll buy second hand) and V neck cotton knits to wear with high waisted trousers. Just sent for this cotton jumper in navy but won't keep if the sleeves are above the elbow. (U knitwear often has extra long sleeves so I'm still hopeful.) I may look for something in that green or red that's coming out as I'm always partial to a bit of colour.

And I'll be keeping an eye on shoes now that flares, boot cuts and wide legs are around again. I am normally strictly flats but if platforms come back, I may not be able to resist.

Not masses. I have started getting a few bits and pieces heavily discounted, only second hand or in the sales.

I've only got a dress, and a wool skirt so far, each less than £10 but good quality from ebay.

I don't need any beauty products. I'd really like a winter jacket (£50 in sales locally) and another dress from ebay but as I moved in December need to keep a tight eye on expenditure until I've got a firmer idea about what my bills will be.

I've just purchased these leather converse (£65 down to £35 in Office) to wear in spring/summer and am looking at getting some pale grey 'soft' looking jeans to wear with them. Might look at chinos too but I'm never sure if I look silly in them as I have a big bum and sturdy thighs whether I'm a size 8 or 14.

I'm trying (ha!) to loose 2.5stone so can't really buy much until April or May.

Bought casual silk trousers from Pure, Leon Max and various EBay sellers. Also bought a very spenny watch and a whole heap of pearl jewellery with Christmas money in the sales. Oh yes and a cream cashmere headband/earwarmer thing. Really must get my save on now though and focus on losing weight rather than spending £ on more and more clothes....
Coveting a couple of Triconi coats on Brandalley and inexplicably, Vivianne Westwood For Melissa Dragon Orb high heeled sandals.

This thread has been dangerous.. thank heavens it is payday tomorrow!

I have bought a suede Balfern biker jacket from Allsaints on sale. I've been looking for a pair of bootcut white jeans and so far have found a nice pair in Jigsaw. Haven't bought them yet. Looking for a denim jacket too.

A lovely striped jumper from Whistles with an embroidered lipstick kiss on it, and some dogtooth checked culottes/cropped wide leg trousers from Warehouse. I am so sick of winter now.

I finally cracked and bought the blue and yellow gazelles I was coveting.

I’ve got my eye on a knackered old vintage bag to go with them. Just need some cute trousers ready for spring.

Have also stopped buying winter clothes now, but still holding out for a pair of ankle boots in the sale, ready for next winter.
Spring /summer I only tend to wear mainly light grey, cream, white, very pale pink tops (very boring, i know). So far have managed to pick up a couple in the Jigsaw and All Saints sale and a collar less shirt I had my eye on in Tommy Hilfiger was in the sale yesterday. So I'm 3 tops up for summer now. Keep convincing my DH that i'm really saving money all the way

I am coveting this bag from Russell and Bromley, which would fill a gap in my wardrobe beautifully, but it's way out of my price range. :(

More realistically, I desperately need some tops/T-shirts, 3/4 length sleeve, scoop or V-neck, in black, red or grey to go with my winter skirts. Any suggestions as where to find them gratefully received, since my shopping time is limited atm.

rosina i was in COS yesterday and they have some plain 3/4 sleeve t-shirts, also some grey short sleeved. Also 50% sale on.

Thanks so much expat, will check it out!

I've been eyeing this very Chanelesque boucle jacket from LK Bennett to wear with jeans, not so keen on the price though. Do they ever have discount codes?

Zara often have jackets like that JanetStWalker, although I haven't been recently

JanetStWalker if you are ok to buy used, and want the white one in size 10, let me know. I bought one last year, but never wore it.

i want the mini mulberry darley satchel in oak - enough for phone, keys and bank cards!
