Welcome everyone one!!!

Evening all
I've been doing a bit of budget shopping (just to keep my spirits up you know, we'll, apart from the MV Parker I bought £129 down from £189 not budget but I saw someone wearing it and I stalked until I found it in JL 😂)
I bought theses pull on trousers on Saturday and they're fab, so I've just ordered the slightly coated version too, for £8.99 well worth it.
Then I saw this jumper and I thought I'd take a punt, it'll need a long top underneath but I just liked the pattern.
Can link if anyone is interested but here's a screen shot:

They look a good buy Gin all for a bit of budget shopping, my DF used to say I had champagne taste & a beer budget😂

You and me both @dontcallmelen

Would you mind If I share my Mum's tribute page with you? ..

I dont want to be a cheeky F, but we are doing donations for cats protection.. Please pm me if you would like to share .. (but no worries if you dont )

Honestly , If you think IABU and a CF sorry
x ..

It probably is CF .. sorry

Laska I don’t think it is, have just pmd you.

@laksa - if I could remember how to pm you I would... lovely idea. We did something similar for my mum. 💐🐈

Not CF at all. Have PMd you, laska.
(You can also have my first ever mumsnet YANBU...I'm a bit scared by that board...much friendlier here!)

Good bargains btw Gin. What is the sizing like on the stretchy trousers?

Thanks all xx (I'm a bit fragile this evening, so dont feel pressured!)

@Laska2Meryls can you pm me your link please?

I can't Pm on the App laska, but I'll see if I can log on to the main site tomorrow and do it. Hope you're ok  as ok as you can be.

I'd say they're on the tight side of TTS @neveradullmoment99, But they're stretchy. I bought a 10 in the non coated and have bought 12 in the coated as I think coated tend to be a bit less forgiving.

Oops hit the wrong tag! That should have been to @NotAnActualSheep 🤦🏻‍♀️

Thanks Gin! I may give the plain grey ones a go. The black sosandar ones I have are surprisingly good and (I think) quite flattering. The coated ones look good too, but the faux-leather-legging fiasco of a couple of weeks ago has made me realise that my legs can't really do shiny . I'm wishing I was brave enough for the leopard ones too, but don't think the colours would work with very much I already have...

@GinandGingerBeer I really like that H&M jumper you've posted below. Please post a pic when it arrives.

Hi all Am ok today, at least the weather is sunny and also some good news at last in the form of DS getting another job (still temp sadly but they are wanting to make it permanent if they can get the budget) .even better as he has his first job seekers interview today!
Thanks for those whohave given some to Mum s charity page. Hope you didn't mthink it inappropriate me posting that .message above. ( Was a bit upset at the time).
On other things Pleased that Other Stories have refunded me for the huge coat already and the smaller one s are being delivered today. Slightly Hush today wearing burgundy Ivy boots s and leopard leggings..

Laska great news for your Ds & great timing, lovely & sunny here as well. Let’s hope the OS coat is a better fit, am pottering round catching up with washing/ironing etc has had a busy couple of days & feeling a bit drained.
Have a good day everyone.

laska glad you're feeling ok today.

Hope everyone is having a good day. I was in Monsoon yesterday and noticed they had some nice knitwear, my 11 year old dd said this would be nice on me:

uk.monsoon.co.uk/view/product/uk_catalog/mon_6.59/5477008551

I had a little delivery today - my burgundy biker jacket (which I love), a leopard print cami top with black lace for going out and two new belts, a leopard print one (furry texture) and a suede black one.
All looks nice on unpacking, need to have a bit of a try on.
After this I really will just be following all your lovely buys as I really must focus on Christmas now. Have made a good start on the shopping but still a few to buy for.
Only thing I am really wanting but haven't yet ordered is some black coated jeans - I'm probably going to order the RI ones as a bit of an Xmas treat.

Can we see pictures @ellapaella??

Absolutely @PorpoisefullyObtuse but I'll post tomorrow am when it's daylight to get better idea of the colour of the jacket.

@gin that’s funny. I have the same H&M items in my basket ready to check out. I wasn’t sure if the treggings (is that what they’re called) would be too low waisted on me. I’m a slim-ish apple but I bulge at the waist. How do they fit? Also the top says short- wasn’t sure if it’d be too short on my stomach again. Cold you update when you get it please? It looks lovely in the pics.

My Other Stores coats arrived (same one as the huge one last week I sized down and ordered the 40 and 38 but have gone for the 38 ( i think thats supposed to be a 12) it is still boxy but just right I think .. ill post a photo on Friday when I am home in the daylight. It is really fab I think and well worth a go if you fancy a nice coat..

They refunded me the huge one really quickly - considering I DPD it from our little backwater island to NL last Thursday or Friday (with free post paid label )

Twosoups I've seen that Jumper , really like it.. ( but have far too many jumpers..)

@Laska2Meryls I'm so glad. I had a feeling the 38 would be a better fit so I'm pleased you ordered both sizes. I'm sure it looks great on you. Impressed with Other Stories so far. The quality is fantastic.

Finally unpacked the white long line tee I ordered in the Hush sale. I know it will be great quality but it was so creased, it's annoying.

@Ellapaella your buys sound fab, where were they from?
