Jospeh ponte leggings, £200

Toteme cashmere jumper £600

Proenza Schouler boots £900

MaxMara cashmere wrap £1800

I'm very envious of all the PPs getting much better stuff from Vinted than I've managed ... but my supreme envy is all for your wardrobe!

Hope the fireworks lived up to your standards.

I wonder why they've hidden my post?? Forgot to tot up the total which is around £500 but some of the things are quite old!

It because you referenced a pair of old-school tennis shoes, also named for the water line on a ship's side 😂 A persistent troll was obsessed with them!

faustina · 04/11/2024 20:54

@Garlicpest - thanks for letting me know. What an odd obsession to have!!! They're really comfortable!

Had to Google that! Thanks for providing today’s trivia!

Garlicpest · 04/11/2024 21:16

Every Mumsnet day's a school day, Norman 😉 Happy to oblige.

WhoStoleYourHighHorse · 04/11/2024 21:31

Gap vest - about 12 years old £8
Uniqlo merino jumper £35
Zara jeans £30
Uniqlo socks £5
M & S knickers £8
Panache bra £45

Today:

Joanie midi dress - can’t remember, probably around £70/£80
White stuff cord blazer - £80 with 20% off code
John Lewis cashmere scarf (big one) - £99
Celtic and Co lace up ankle boots - £199 (think I might have had a 15% code, so paid less than this).

My every day bag is a Bleu de Chauffe brown leather crossbody bag - I got it from Toast and I think it was about £125.

Isitfridayyetsophie · 05/11/2024 13:20

It’s not only me finding it addictive then! It’s really not something I’d ever thought about doing before.

@Britpopbaby an £8 sezane dress?! Another amazing find!

chambray shirt- With nothing underneath- £130
bra and pants- bravissimo- £60
h&m cheap socks
Teddy jacket- H&M- £18

To the poster who asked about wearing shoes indoors, I’m always in socks and/or slippers indoors, when I include my shoes it’s because I’ve been out and worn them.

JustLoretta · 05/11/2024 13:35

M&S wide leg wool blend trousers (love them) £70
Vintage cashmere £15
V old black M&S vest that was maybe £10

This is my kind of thread OP. Excellent idea!

OliviaRodrighost · 05/11/2024 13:38

@Isitfridayyetsophie A Prada backpack! 😀😎

Have you seen the 90s film 10 Things I Hate About You? One of my favourites, and includes the following exchange:

Bianca : There's a difference between like and love. Because, I like my Skechers, but I love my Prada backpack.

Chastity : But I love my Skechers.

Bianca : That's because you don't have a Prada backpack.

Chastity: Ohhhh.

At the time I thought my mum was so cool for having this bag and I remember borrowing it for school one day and feeling so proud of myself! (I had a pair of Skechers back then too. Oh I miss the late 90s)

”It’s just a party daddy!”
”And Hell is just a sauna”

I remember going on holiday to America and getting Skechers and I thought I was the bee’s knees 😅

@OliviaRodrighost 🤣 you know if it wasn’t election night I’d be rewatching it again today! They don’t just make films like thst anymore.(edit- wow that makes me sound old!)

I am so impressed with people’s charity shop and vinted finds. I’m either looking in the wrong places or have my tactics wrong, the only real success I’ve ever had in charity shops is for Jellycats and toys in general!

EverythingElseIsTaken · 05/11/2024 17:32

Work today so about £250 including shoes. My work clothes are typically from places like Hobbs but I buy classic styles so they last for years.
