Some items I have purchase recently include these two sweatshirts from M&S. I couldn’t choose between the black and the ivory, so got both.

I also got this jumper, that I coordinated my cocktail with on Tuesday evening.

I got some navy jersey harem style trousers in the M&S sale too, so I’m not desperate for the Hush ones now. For £12 vs £55 I thought they were worth a try AND I got to size down.

I too love the cocktail jumper.

My Hush pants stretched after the first wash. I should have sent them back really.

I like all of those Pip.

I have had to buy a pair of new work shoes. I must admit they do feel comfortable but :ella: :granny:

That’s interesting to hear! Some others here have mentioned things shrinking in the wash too. I’ve often wondered if it’s style over quality. I have the voucher from The Pool but it’s £10 off a £40 spend and I’m not sure there’s anything i want. It’s valid for ages though.

I had a shirt shrink too. On the flip side, the two jumpers that I would like to shrink won't. Even on intensive dry. I should have remembered this when I ordered the rainbow jumper. I'll just never wash it.

I like those sweatshirts Pip. And the colour of the other jumper.

The Joy branch in Bath is shutting down so there was a sale, I picked up the following for a grand total of £19! The photos are crap but the skirts are so pretty. The blue one has a seaside pattern and pockets!

Nice bargain! They are so pretty!

My last purchase was a technical rain jacket.

Must try harder!!
Unexpectedly small.

I like those skirts, smalex.

I'm in Oxford with a woefully inadequate light rain jacket so bought this in the Wallis sale.

I'm not surprised, this was surprise weather!

I did an order of all sorts of things from the Whistle sale including this denim dress and some strange jeans because I am desperate for something that's not a skinny jean.

I’ve seen a lot of those type of jeans on people recently. I’m not ready to be parted from
My skinny jeans yet but it’s good to have an alternative.

I wore my puffy coat with furry hood earlier, Mrs D. It’s freezing out there!

Yeah, I still have at least 5 pairs of skinny jeans in rotation along with a new pair of wide leg jeans which I am really liking. I do love jeans, I wear them nearly every day.
