I really fancy doing some shopping but for what I don't know.
What have you been buying recently?

Black cords from Cos.

A black sweatshirt midi dress from Oliver Bonas.

More for winter, but a massive duvet puffer coat from Monki.

I also re-watched It's a Sin over the weekend and hunted down some 80s mohair jumpers on Depop which I am dying to wear!

Dresses from Oysho like the one pictured (if it shows up)
Ribbed vests from Toteme
Midi skirt in tie-dye print from Massimo Dutti
Linen wrap skirt from Massimo
Linen wrap dress from Massimo
Clog sandals
Black linen slip dress from Zara (brilliant 90's cut to it too!)

It's still very hot over here in Asia and will be for some time, so I just bought a second summer wardrobe basically, since I've been wearing the last set since March.

I'm going to town at the weekend, heading especially to Arket, Cos, Fatface to check out:

black dress

cardigan

top

top

dress

another dress

shorter dress

Ideally I want a striped top which is black with white stripes and drop sleeves, but can't find one anywhere. :(

I'm so rubbish at shopping - I sat down tonight to do some browsing, managed to find a whole Hand Sanitiser!

I bought a Mango dress for our holiday in January
A jumper from Zara
Black leather converse, I now want white as well.

I went a bit mad in M&S yesterday, they have some gorgeous tapered leg trousers and light coloured jumpers. Such good value.

Wellies and a January holiday in the sun 🤞🤞🤞

I bought these bright pink wide leg trousers from M&S. Will wear with white Vans or dark blue Vivaia flats until the weather turns!

I’ve gone a bit nuts on ‘thrift plus’ website. I’ve bought so many designer items! I’ve fallen in love with Un Jardin Sur le Toit perfume by Hèrmes - I’ve bought a bottle for myself and one each to put away for my DDs teachers at Christmas. Nicest perfume I’ve smelled in years!

Green maxi skirt from second hand shop. Revlon Raven Red nail polish- I love vintage style and after I heard this shade has been around since 1945, I really wanted to get my hands on it (no pun intended). I bought it today and it’s beautiful. Very classy non glitter burgundy.

This is so intriguing. How did you find this out about the nail color? I would love to read more about vintage colors like this. Going to order it!

@blisstwins

I love everything vintage including makeup so I guess it came up when I googled vintage make up colors still available today or something. I have just tried to find the original link for you but couldn’t find it unfortunately. I don’t know if you’re a lipstick person but if you are, you might love to see this one too

Another fan of the vintage Revlon colours here. Cherries in the snow is just perfect.

@33goingon64 can we have a link to the trousers please?

@RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie love the last Fat Face dress, the shorter one. Wonder if it’ll work with tights and boots?

These are the ones I liked

Yes it’s beautiful! Love that red is very beautiful too. I just wish they would make their long lasting liquid lipsticks in those vintage shades too!

I love it so much l might buy the check version too. It’s light enough to go in my handbag.

Sorry. I brought it from a private seller on ebay
