What have you all been buying recently?
I bought a grey stripy cardigan today, burnt orange thin jumper and a dark charcoal grey coatigan all from TKmaxx
Had a major charity shop find during week and bought 3 cashmere jumpers and a cashmere cardigan - there were lots more but not all my size
2 wool scarves from a charity shop today
Woollens are my ‘thing’ at the moment as don’t need much of anything else

I can't seem to stay out of the shops either. Bought boots in the sake from jigsaw and a ted baker handbag also in the sale. Also bought 3 new jumpers for winter and have my eye on a pretty ring that I absolutely do not need but want! Must stop shopping!

Bought some boots and a cashmere scarf today for DD Xmas and a coat last week which she chose
Will keep the scarf as an extra but she will need to try the boots on
Bought some ugg slippers for DP from outlet
DM wants some new shoes n trousers so have offered to take her shopping next week
DS wants records, games and concert tickets so not really style and beauty!

Plum coloured corduroy pinafore from M and Co.

Pleated chiffon midi skirt from H&M.

Two sparkly polonecks from M and S (one silver, one dark red).

Several pairs of thermal tights from M&S and primark.

Lovely brand new floral velour backpack from the charity shop, for £4.75.

Red and blue floral scarf, blue faux fur scarf, blue faux fur bag from a friend's Captain Tortu clothing party.

Every year I tell myself I am going to do the capsule wardrobe thing, and every year I never do! However I am going to wear all of the above to death this season.

Oh, and I bought myself a new cycle helmet as well.

anikaj I think if you’re trying to flog stuff you should know it’s presently autumn in the UK.

Two tops from FCUK. One pair or black trousers from White Company, a grey v neck jumper and thermal cami from Uniqlo.

I think I need a furry coat. I didn’t. But I do think it.

Sparkly tunic from Pepperberry, eBay £21 (will match perfectly my second hand silver boots from Sue Ryder) that and a pair of leggings is my Christmas Do outfit

Black Mulberry Lily bag £Shock

I like your style whoknewbeefstew

I’ve spent a fortune on clothes for as long as I can remember. Hopeless. I don’t go into dept or use credit but would be better off if I could Just Stop Shopping. Having said that my new Mulberry Amberley small satchel is a thing of beauty.... 😉

I’m constantly shopping the past few weeks. Mostly charity shops but I still feel bad having more stuff than I can wear.
Last weekend: jeans £9 (charity) shoes £11 (eBay), leather bag £10 eBay
Last week: rain anorak new £54 in sale (feel bad because 1) it’s new 2) it’s frumpy).
Today, Ally Capellino black top £3.50 (charity)
And the shoes arrived damaged and will cost another 7£ to fix!

I’m still browsing eBay for a wool coat and brown boots and put an offer in tonight on something.

Stop me!
