My friend and I got to the Me+Em sale at 10.45 as had to drop DS off at nursery before the train and we were waaaaay too late! Queued for about half an hour and then someone came down the line and told us not to bother as there was barely any stock left. Bit disappointing but glad they did if they had the problems with the tills as well as we wouldn't have had time to wait. We did pop into their shop down the road but I was actually a bit underwhelmed and that was heaving too as I think everyone who left the queue had the same idea. Had a great day anyway as we hit up some other shops instead and I got a few nice things, including a bright green suit from Zara, so it wasn't a waste of time, and it was so great to see my bestie.

Jumper- Hush
Leggings - Yu+Me
Trainers - M&S
Jacket - Zara

And a shout out to this M&S bag - £8 in the sale and its so light and comfy to carry and fits an amazing amount for such a small bag - currently got a water bottle, book, phone, cards, cinnamon bun(!), lipstick and hand sanitiser in it and it's still closing easily- it's like a Mary Poppins bag!

Thanks so much for your comments re the M&S jacket, too - I took it back in the end. I did like it, but I didn't love it and I think @Softpebbles and @OublietteBravo nailed it that the colour wasn't quite right. I would have loved it in a bright green or cobalt blue, I think, the greige wasn't quite right on me.

Sorry to hear about the sample sale

How heavily discounted was the stuff?

@KiteflyingKitty

Sorry to hear about the sample sale

How heavily discounted was the stuff?

I think they said prices were between £10-£60, so I think pretty heavily!
EllaPaella · 10/03/2022 19:01

I think there were a few of you today at the Me&Em sample sale. Shame you didn't all have a mumsnetters meet up!

You look lovely @toastfiend - great jacket. Not a very exciting outfit from me but I've just been at uni. Had another super busy week so far, so much going on at the moment so I'm planning in an early night and to watch 'Our House' on catch up.
Coat - Hush
Jumper - Cos
Jeans - M&S
Also just ordered a couple of lovely dresses in anticipation of my Palma holiday with girlfriends in a couple of months. Ages away but the sunny weather today got me in the holiday spirit.

Nice cardi @Sooverthemill

I’m still looking for a nice white and blue stripped sweatshirt. I’ve tried loads abs I’m thinking they are just perhaps not for me!

Nothing special (as always 🤣)

Mom jeans, old warehouse cardigan and gap white t shirt. Will wear Veja’s or stand smiths when I go out for a walk.

It’s such a beautiful day. I’m not sure it’s going to last but whilst it does it’s great!

Oops - I’m sure I posted this morning. MN must’ve eaten my post. It seemed springlike this morning, so I dug out some trainers. I’m regretting that now and wishing I’d stuck with my boots.

Definitely one of these days today! So warm and spring like but as you get to the seafront a sharp wind catches you. Coat on and off day.

Love both of your outfits from yesterday and today, @EllaPaella. That coat is gorgeous. Smile

Great dungarees @OublietteBravo!

How is your DD now @Sooverthemill? Sorry to hear that she's been so poorly - I'm always in awe of how great you look even when you must be shattered.

No outfit from me today - I've been for a 10 mile walk with my DM so was just in leggings and a jumper. Had a lovely time but it was super hilly and my legs are feeling it now!

Yesterday -
Trousers - M&S
Jumper - Hush

Hope those who went to the Me+Em sale had a good time anyway - I headed to Zara and got this green suit so I was pretty happy with the outcome in the end, but it is a shame that it wasn't organised better, especially as it sounds like this has happened at their sales previously.

@toastfiend do you by any chance follow Trinny on YouTube? She has a lot of Zara stuff ~plus loads of ££££££ stuff~ and she has a few of those coloured suits. She has videos on how to style different colours too
