Today in a charity shop, I found a vintage Lochcarron tartan cape/shawl in wool and mohair. Absolutely thrilled!

A long puffer coat from Vinted - cost me £20, it’s still currently on sale in Uniqlo for £159 🎉
Over the moon with it, it was the one big purchase I was planning on this season and I got it for a bargain, happened to spot it within 20 minutes of it being listed.

Delphigirl · 29/08/2025 19:36

Well not bottle. Not really moss. Just dark green I guess.

I’m on the hunt for a nice wool coat!

4 new jumpers, I never usually wear them as I get to hot. However I’m now living in Scotland on the east coast and I’m actually looking forward to wearing them .
All half price or less from the next summer sale. I feel so smug about my forward thinking 🤔 🤣🤣. Sad am I !

EllaPaella · 29/08/2025 22:01

Brown Adidas Spezials, a chocolate brown jumper and T-shirt and a Tweed waistcoat - all bought new. Bought a navy wool Uniqlo jumper from Vinted.
@Somethingsnappedthat sounds absolutely awesome!

My first purchase from ME+EM a lovely winter dress. 🥰

If you find a brown one without a belt, let me know!! Belted coats look awful on me, like I’m wearing a dressing gown.

JustPassingThruHere · 29/08/2025 23:18

A rose cropped denim jacket on sale at New Look. It's too big and I don't care!

Stardust286 · 29/08/2025 23:38

A pumpkin and toadstool vanilla candle, a long wool cardigan from a charity shop for £7 and new Uggs from a car boot sale 😊

Jigsaw have their maxi city coat in brown. Not a budget option, but decent price for a wool coat these days, I think, and an absolute classic. Could look at Vinted for one too.

I’ve just bought the ‘purple’ (not remotely purple, no clue why they’re calling it that) from this season, after stalking Vinted for a burgundy one in the right size for a year. Am also stalking Vinted for a navy one.

Ooh love the sound of all of these! I’m
also on the hunt for the Jigsaw City Maxi previous season. Can’t quite bring myself to pay full price but may have to bite the bullet! ( or a Maxmara but they’re like
hens teeth!)
I’ve not bought anything yet but a new coat is definitely on my list, also a suede jacket and a slip skirt. I need some new loafers but undecided on whether to go chunky or classic, what’s everyone’s views for this season?
