Things we are looking forward to wearing/purchasing when all this is done

I don't know about you but I could use a frivolous thread to ease the relentless bombardment.

I'll start Grin..

I have bought some tan Fairfax and Favor driving loafers which has given me the urge to go all preppy.

I have lost 2 stone recently and am excited about my summer wardrobe. I have had a lot of joy at Next for some great basics. So far I have built a new capsule and like wide legs at the mo.

What's on your radar?

Trusty old Next Wink. I’ll keep it in mind.

I spent shedloads at White Company last month and will probably make a few more purchases there this month - regardless of the fact that I’ve nowhere to wear them....

I love a lot of White Company stuff in at the moment- seems I am not alone- those shoes were only on there a nano-second and are already sold out!

Re White Company I am eyeing up a couple of their stripe tops and Ponte wide leg crop trousers too. Anyone bought any of those who could give their verdict on them?

Today I bought a Boden top in the sale which fills a gap perfectly in my wardrobe.....

That pendant is gorgeous Jace! Envy

I'm buying some pretty underwear for when my FWB can visit again, and there's some things from Huda Beauty, Lancome and ABH I want.

An all saints leather jacket! I’ve wanted one for ages. Don’t want to order online, as I’d like the experience of trying on in store. So am looking forward to when I can do that. This is the one I’m after;

OP love love the pendant. Beautiful!

@Ella the jacket looks gorgeous on that model. Effortless chic! But i I just know it won’t look like that on me Hmm

Quarantimespringclean · 02/04/2020 15:16

I will get my botox done. I have it to raise my eyebrows and make me look more awake and I’m looking decidedly dozy atm. I’ll also have my microblading refreshed.

Thankssomuch · 02/04/2020 20:43

summersmahoosivecliponfringe I have two pairs of the crop wide leg trousers in black and another pair in navy. I like them a lot - they’ve got a kind of chic yoga pant vibe. They seem to hold their shape pretty well.

Looking forward to wearing my heels and my ‘proper’ clothes. And carrying a handbag. And topping up the Botox. Oh, and getting my hair cut and my nails done (god knows what state I’m going to be in soon!)

saucyspice · 03/04/2020 12:18

Looking forward to getting my brows, nails and haircut sorted! Also need my upper lip waxed haha

I'm think I will also get some new running shoes but would like to go to a shop to get some advice and try on some different pairs rather than ordering online.

Going to try and keep on top of a few things to help me feel good in the meantime, I'm going running and doing home workouts, also exfoliating and fake tanning, revitalash, skincare routine, face and hair masks more often, painting my nails, etc. Hoping I won't look too awful when we're allowed back out again! Keep safe guys x

The Boden top came today and I am thrilled with it. Going to crack it out later today with some jersey wide leg trousers.

Looking forward to seeing everyone else's wish lists :)

saucyspice what fake tan are you using? Sounds like a good idea. I’m suddenly feeling pasty!

Thankssomuch · 06/04/2020 07:31

I ordered the blue and white linen linen cropped wide lag pants from White Company yesterday - couldn’t resist.

shinynewapple2020 · 06/04/2020 22:25

I'm loving looking at your wish list / purchases OP. Particularly like the bandeau top culotte jumpsuit and the Ralph Lauren loafers. Also you've just encouraged me to look at White Company , some really nice stuff.

Spaceprincess · 08/04/2020 14:07

Botox also and foundation, I've been reduced to using up all the ones I've bought from superdrug and are wrong

Runneryogi · 09/04/2020 06:24

A lot of my friends are using the time to organise their wardrobes and we are going to have a swap when it’s safe to do so
