To ask what you're treating yourself to this weekend ?

[stevalnamechanger]

Just that really !

Lockdown has got me pretty down and as it's payday weekend I wanted to ask what small things you're treating yourselves too .... I'm also missing a Saturday mooching & shopping ☹️

So far my list is ;

Mumsnet recommended Origins Ginger Fizz bath float www.marksandspencer.com/ginger-float-cream-bubble-bath-500ml/p/hbp60151640

Pomegranate Candle from a small company in my area that just launched www.celonalondon.com/

Also got my eye on some Panzers cookies panzers.co.uk/bakery/panzers-valentines-linzer-biscuits/

Inspire me !!! Bath products !! Brownies in a box . What are you buying?

Lighthearted fun please. Yes I know we are in a pandemic.

I've spent so much in the past few months I'm losing track... rather than the weekend I'll give a rundown of my lockdown spending spree, I blame Boris 😉. Most have been fabulous sale bargains:

All saints cargo leather biker
All saints kita crossbody bag
All saints slip dresses, one with a crop jumper
Mother of Pearl skirt and top from John Lewis
Velvet skirt from monsoon, cardigan too
Knitwear from topshop and ASOS
Grey cocoon coat from topshop
Camel suede boots from topshop
Black lace up biker boots from dune
Jamie jeans from topshop
Denim midi skirts from Karen Millen
Tons of beauty products, the highlights being tons of Nuxe
All saints perfume in the sale too

I'll have forgotten stuff but those are the highlights

Oh I forgot, a black satin dress from new look and one from style cheat too.
Oh and jumpers from mango.

I've really felt the urge to comfort shop this week. Perhaps we've reached the retail therapy stage of the pandemic?

I think I got there about 9 months before you @JofraArchersFastestBall

I have a Monki order and an M&S Order on their way.

I have started buying stuff online for other people as it helps with the guilt.

I'm just expecting a delivery from Cult Beauty - Nars tinted moisturiser, some stuff from The Ordinary and sheet masks for a home facial.

My succulents are sprouting babies like mad, so some understated concrete pots to plant new ones in.

Trying hard not to buy clothes and saving up for a nice bag instead

X 2 pairs of jeggings, a twin-set and ballet pumps from New Look

A new top and a lipstick from Rouje

X 2 bralets (I no longer subscribe to the tyranny of underwires) and x 4 Brazilian knickers (I no longer subscribe to the tyranny of thongs) from M&S.

I really need a new practical outdoor warm rainproof coat from Berghaus or similar. However I'm so sick of stuff like that I may end up buying a leopard fake fur coat from Hush.☺️

This thread has made me realise I'm not THAT frivolous...

I just bought a weights bench - OH got me new dumbbells and barbells for my birthday cos I'm missing the gym.

@lockdownalli I’ve done the same 🤣 my mum needs a new winter coat & was admiring mine the other day so I’ve ordered her one as a surprise. Missing my mums

I’ve also ordered the Alice temperley top someone mentioned earlier in the thread and a dress might of popped into the basket too.

I have just spent the last remnants of my bonus on a Foreo Bear. I am staring at my melting face in increasing horror on Teams every day and need to take action.

@Daisy829

I was so tempted by the Alice temperley top top then I saw it was hand wash only

It’s so beautiful it’s possibly worth it though

Loving these purchases !

I too need an outdoor waterproof coat that will be my next adventure so any suggestions let me know .

I totally forgot that I have a Jigsaw order coming .. but I ordered it over a week ago and still no sign 😂 not like I have anywhere to wear a fancy top and heels to that I ordered .

I am currently living in DKNY active wear from the outnet and jigsaw pjs

I make myself feel better that it isn't too frivolous considering I'm getting Amex points and cashback 😆

All ears for any more high quality PJ recommendations !

@MrPanks where did you get your silk pillowcase from? I'm tempted too.

Chanel Les Exclusifs Gardenia EdP.
Had it before, lovely scent.

Some Barry M Nail polishes, doing my nails really cheers me up.

@Frankinmachine - the silk pillowcase is from Jasmine Silk. It is silk on one side, backed with cotton, so very reasonable at £15. Very quick service too - arrived the next day (and no P&P!). It feels lovely against my face.

Thanks so much Pinkypie. I'll check that blusher out

Glad a couple of people like the Goddess make-up bag - I should charge Amelia Liana commission

I’m on the No Spend thread , but living vicariously through you all .
Keep it coming :)

@stevalnamechanger I got some pretty PJs from Cyberjammies a while back. Not hugely expensive (£45 I think?) but so far they've lasted well through 10+ washes. The length is a bit short on me especially on the sleeves but I'm tall do most things fall a bit short

I'm dreaming of beautiful and warm slippers. Something like a sheepskin birkenstock would be lush

I've got a few bits coming if the snow allows it.

A 4in one wireless charging dock.
AirPod pro case for the case. Wild.
A Chanel necklace that I'm VERY excited about.
A slingsby gin order. Needed.
A fake bearded dragon - DS will not stop talking about them.
A felt bunny bonnet for my friend who's due next week.
A new nail lamp.

And because of the snow my husband will be home

I ordered foundation from Il Makiage.
I blame Instagram.
But they do a 60 day money back guarantee which swung it for me.

@poorbuthappy oooh do report back. My mum just got this and didn't like it at all but I think she possibly expects miracles.

I have gone a bit mad with Sweaty Betty. Anyone would think I'm an elite athlete, not the chubby figure trying to burpee along to Joe Wicks
I have bought the restful boucle zip up top, two pairs of the power leggings and a headband I don't even need as I have short hair.
That is on top of all the other SB stuff I've bought over the last month or two. It definitely does help me do a better workout. That's what I'm telling myself.

@Daisy829 that bag is top of my wish list! Great choice.👍👍 I have such a hard time making a final decision, though, because there are a few bags I really love and I want them all! 🙂 thanks for the offer of 10% off but I won’t be able to buy another bag for several months now.

I too am expecting a bloody miracle for the price!!!!!
