I've done it for every three months and I don't plan on buying all the things in each one. I'm thinking it might scratch the buying random things itch I get sometimes! Hopefully someone can help me be a tad more cohesive.

Ordered these yesterday! Really excited as I’ve been looking for a mustard bag for a while (wish it was leather but on a budget). Poncho looks interesting. Trying to emulate the other photo.

With all the wind & rain I’m getting so much use out my new Protected Species rain jacket. It’s so light & easy to just chuck in the car just in case.

Once I’ve lost the baby weight I definitely need some more jumpers. My current selection are very bobbly from wearing around the house. I have about 6 in rotation so I think they all need to be replaced.

Can you remind me of the pricing & how it works @cheesenpickles? There’s no obligation to buy? The thought of new clothes landing on my door step at frequent intervals sounds like stuff dreams are made of 🥰

LuxuryWoman2018 · 19/08/2019 19:34

happytobemrsg lovely choices, I like a poncho. That bag is the same as mine only mines leather, it’s a great shape bag and mustard is nice for Autumn, looks good with navy.

cheesenpickles · 19/08/2019 19:57

Its £10 per box (and can be offset against anything you buy), 20% off if you buy everything.

cheesenpickles · 19/08/2019 19:58

And no obligation but you do forfeit the £10 if you don't purchase which is cheaper than hiring a personal shopper that doesn't work for a dept store.

happytobemrsg · 19/08/2019 20:11

Where did you buy your leather one @LuxuryWoman2018?

happytobemrsg · 19/08/2019 20:15

So I’ve done the online colour & shape analysis with Styled By Susie & followed their Facebook page. In the last few months I’ve grown in confidence & really started nailing down my style & colours. I have a personal shop with them booked for March & September seasonal capsule wardrobes. But now I’m rethinking whether I should go ahead & whether I should trust myself instead & perhaps consider something like Stitchfix which is a godsend with 2 young DC

LuxuryWoman2018 · 19/08/2019 20:23

It was this one, I have a couple now (too many colours to choose from)
www.myexquisiteshop.com/products/camila-small-shoulder-bagel-bag there was a code summer20 but I don’t know if it’s still valid.

I know what you mean about bobbly jumpers, but mine are so comfy for mooching around in.

EnidButton · 19/08/2019 22:05

Luxury Those prices! For leather 😱 Are they good quality etc and the delivery ok? Very tempted. The colours are gorgeous!

LuxuryWoman2018 · 19/08/2019 22:13

Yes really good qualit, nice leather just no fancy logos , I’ve had I think five bags now and they come in around 3 or 4 days, always nicely packaged too. I found them by accident on instagram or Facebook. I guess probably a small company but very good at what they do.

EnidButton · 19/08/2019 22:17

Good find! I like these ones too as I prefer silver or nickel type hardware on me www.myexquisiteshop.com/products/windsor-italian-leather-saddle-bag?pr_prod_strat=copurchase&pr_rec_pid=3868983984243&pr_ref_pid=2030836514931&pr_seq=uniform&variant=29201916559475 Just have to decide which colour(s) .

LuxuryWoman2018 · 19/08/2019 22:21

That’s the problem, too many colours 😊

VivaLeBeaver · 19/08/2019 22:24

I want some brown, lace up ankle boots but with a bit of a heel. Haven’t seen any yet.

EnidButton · 20/08/2019 00:14

I think I saw some in Dune Viva They usually do a few brown lace up boots every A/W.

VivaLeBeaver · 20/08/2019 06:36

Thanks, will have a look. They had nice ones last year but had sold out of my size.

Sigh81 · 20/08/2019 06:41

After eyeing these brogues for many, many months (I have more than enough clothes so am cutting down on purchases) I had to snap these up in the sale - my Clarks brogues are wonderful for walking but not quite smart enough for the office, so I think these will do nicely.

cheesenpickles · 20/08/2019 06:54

@Sigh81 oooh I like those!

LuxuryWoman2018 · 20/08/2019 09:00

I love a lace up boot, I don’t often see them, I’d love some to mid calf length.

LuxuryWoman2018 · 20/08/2019 15:34

Just hàd a browse round the shops, still an end of summer jumble sale although we're supposed to get another heatwave

EnidButton · 20/08/2019 18:01

Any heatwave can do one. Grin I've gone into Autumn mode now. Maybe The North will be missed by it.

LuxuryWoman2018 · 20/08/2019 18:31

I wouldn’t mind a last blast of summer except it means ironing some linen 🙄

Miseryisabutterfly · 20/08/2019 20:06

I like this thread!

I bought this today. I’m quite excited about it. I’d also like a leather jacket. I’m planning on wearing midi skirts with chunky jumpers and boots and dresses with a leather jacket (if I get one!).

LuxuryWoman2018 · 20/08/2019 21:05

Really nice Miseryisabutterfly will look good as you plan to wear it. This is a very dangerous thread (for the bank balance)

Miseryisabutterfly · 20/08/2019 21:11

Thank you :)
