This can all be fantasy btw. I just like daydreaming about this stuff and probably won't buy any of it as I'm too picky Grin

Mine is:

Biker jacket
Oversize blazer in a spring colour
Paperback trousers
Slides
A couple of oversized shirts (mens?)
A new bag
Some night gowns in various weights (I hate pjs)
Oversized, lightweight jumper
Maxi skirt

I've bought some things already:
Wide leg jeans
Pale pink denim jacket
Black sleeveless cotton knit tank top thing
Grey denim midi skirt

I'm after:
A pink t-shirt of some sort (to wear with khaki trousers)
A black cotton midi dress, ideally broderie, but it doesn't seem to exist
A black or grey broderie cotton loose blouse (this also doesn't exist)

I like the sound of what you've bought Remus.

I'd like to try the super baggy jeans I've seen about. So will add those to my list!

So far I have bought -

Midi dress
2 jumpsuits
Oversized colourful knitted jumper (summer knit)
Bootcut jeans
A couple of light blouses to go with the jeans
Pink chinos

I might get another midi dress and I am looking for a thin summer jacket. Pink denim sounds nice actually.

Forgot about the oversized shirt which I have just ordered from Hush

Seniorandjunior · 17/04/2022 11:19

I bought a shirt/blouse. White with blue embroidery bits. I can’t really figure out what I want.

I’m thinking I’ll get this bag

WhyTheWhales · 17/04/2022 14:59

That's a great bag Senior.

I want a summer bag which isnt straw or leather or canvas! That sort of thing you linked looks really promising

another pair of mom jeans - pale denim, high-waisted, synched at the waist but roomier elsewhere
a very nice white tee
flattering cropped tops
cross body bag - soft leather
white(?) trainers
a funky multi cardi/jumper
a black or red dress

..some of these, I haven't found them to exist out there yet.

If anyone's got links of their buys that would be great!

Seniorandjunior · 17/04/2022 15:48

WhyThe - I’m not really a fringey tasselly person but I tried it on yesterday and liked it. I tried on straw baskets too but I’m not feeling it.

This is the blouse I bought. Tbh it’s well overpriced, the fabric isn’t great but I looked at it for ages and still liked it so I bought. I have worn it and really like it. Still overpriced.

WhyTheWhales · 17/04/2022 18:17

That is very cute senior! I can see why you caved and bought it

Very pale, bleached denim mom jeans
White cropped t shirt
Big sunglasses (I like Jackie ohh rayban)
Converse (ive never had any!)
New knickers
Pretty dress, something cotton and quite fashionable rather than classic

JanisMoplin · 19/04/2022 16:15

Linen or cotton shirts in some brighter colours like teal or pink. (Thinking Zara)
Wide leg trousers ( Already got one from M and S in khaki; want another).
Shorts
Maybe a midi dress but I didn't get enough wear out of my dresses from last summer so possibly will wear them again.

OdeToSadDisco · 19/04/2022 19:01

I'm sorted for dresses, jumpsuits, tops etc.
I just need some new sunglasses and sandals but I've no idea where to even start looking. I'm vegan so won't buy leather but I don't want cheap plasticky ones either. I'd love some recommendations!

WhyTheWhales · 19/04/2022 19:22

I love Tevas Ode. Some of them are vegan - think the ones I have are.

I'm mainly bought out
I've had 2 dresses for my birthday
A cream T shirt
A waterproof jacket,
Cropped trousers
Cropped jumpsuit

I just need some plain T shirts

TheChosenTwo · 19/04/2022 22:38

I’ve just ordered this maxi skirt for the warmer weather. Will be (hopefully!) perfect for warm summers in a stuffy classroom with inadequate ventilation Grin
