I've had quite an expensive month and bought too much.

I've bought a pair of black boot cut jeans, some blue wide leg jeans which are too long, a black top, a new belt and last month I bought a leopard print jacket. I've also bought a new primark bag.

 

[Vintage Paw]

I feel very excited. I've bought some new hair straighteners (the Braun Satin ones) and they should arrive today (1/2 price on Amazon ladies and laddies)

I'm also excited because on Thurs when I go to do my xmas shopping all in one fell swoop I intend to also *drumroll* buy some clothes

I haven't bought new clothes for months. A mixture of no money and no time to actually go into town really.

I need some new jeans - I have 2 pairs and wear them on rotation at the moment. It would be nice to get some that were relatively stylish (I find it difficult to make jeans look nice because of my mahoosive arse and hips and thighs).

I'd also like a couple of nice tops, and maybe a nice cardigan (lol /granny).

I also really really need a new coat. I've put on a ton of weight this past year and only one of my coats (out of about 8!) fits me now, and it's right manky - a khaki fabric parka type thing that's falling apart

So hopefully, on Thursday evening I'll be able to tell you all about the beautiful clothes I bought

[foo]

You only want me for my Pringles




Blerg, coming into town for me means turning left out the end of my road, walking for 15 minutes, and ending up in Hanley (Stoke-on-Trent's rather 'special' city centre).

I'm pouting at my saturday working hours since it means the likelihood of making more Brum meets diminishes rapidly

More Pringles for me though

 

[aqua]

can you not get cover for the sat in January?

*steals the pringles when your not looking

 

[sojourner]

A brown beanie hat cos it was only a quid, a grey cord peaked cap, a fucking ace khaki parka, a darker khaki fleece (both mens coats - essential for inside pockets, and OUTSIDE pockets come to that), a khaki long sleeved t, and a darkblueygrey long sleeved t. I found the mens section in primark but they wouldn't let me try on men's jeans in the men's fitting room even though it's cubicled! Cos apparently 'the men might complain'. What about?!

I wasn't very happy. The womens section was 2 floors up, the fitting room queue was a mile long (I'd already stood in it once), and the whole women's section was fucking chocker. I flounced. Fuck the fucking jeans

 

[pengaleng]

why are you wearing mens clothes?

 

[sojourner]

why are you wearing mens clothes?

Because I prefer them, mostly. I wear womens stuff for work, cos I can get decent suits, and mostly decent shirts as well, but for outside work, I prefer the styles, colours, and practicalities of men's clothes. Always have. Especially coats and tops.

 

[pengaleng]

wierd....

 

[sojourner]

wierd....

Why?

 

[moonsi til]

I went into New Look on Saturday to look at tights. I decided that i was not in the market to pay a whole five pounds for a pair so proceeded to bimble around the shop.......


........So £49 pounds later I have X3 £5 work tops, X3 £3 vest tops a green polo-neck jumper and another green short sleeved jumper.

Yesterday I went into town to get my xmas savings twice went into the bank and decided the queue was way too long so chose to have a browse in some shops. I found my work secret santa gift (a pair of those glamerous washing up gloves) and X1 bra and 2 pairs of pants and a very nice new bracelet and £25 in Boots on moisturiser and vitamins.

I really need now not to spend anymore cash...

I have this:

I work in IT

 

[Vintage Paw]

can you not get cover for the sat in January?

I'm going to try, but I don't like my chances. We're short on staff (no budget for more, blah blah fucking blah) and many of those who work during the week can't do a sat shift because they have specific duties they have to do during the week that can't be done on a sat, and I can't do them for them.

I'll send Pringles with Dillinger4 if you like

 

[Strumpet]

My t-shirt came in the post today.

Today I was given a long, black tight(ish) fitting stretchy dress with lil silver leaves over it by my mam! I boughted a lovely black fitted military style jacket/coat from New Look. Been looking for one for ages. Bloody love it.

 

[8ball]

I bought a coffee and black lace bodyshaper thing from M&S - blimey those things are hard to get on (and off)! I looked for a picture on their website but they don't seem to have it for some reason. Annoyingly, it's a 34C rather than a 32D because they don't make them in sizes smaller than 34. God knows why.

Plus I got a hat and some cool elbow length grey leather gloves from TK Maxx.

Oh noez!

Prices are in dollars!

 

[moonsi til]

I went window shopping for a xmas tree and came back with a lovely red bra and 2 pairs of matching pants from Next. Price was a very reasonable £16.

I've been looking at this thread since it started and wondering when exactly i'd contribute to it. I never buy anything and if i do it's usually charity shop, vintage or cheap as chips market stuff and only when i like the look of it...

Well I've finally bought something

So i thought i'd share with group

I bought a pair of (actually new!!!) white 3 inch platform go-go boots to go with a vintage 60's pink and white lace mini dress that a friend gave me ages ago, but i haven't worn yet as i didn't have the right footwear at me for taking ages to get stuff together.

I got them because i've been asked to do 2 Northern Soul DJ sets (people seem to like my 60's/NS/Motown sets, even though it's not what i usually DJ!!!) on NYE and i thought i should make an effort and look the part...

I just tried on the outfit and it looks well , well i think it does...

Ever the person to get stuff that's practical and goes with everything. The boots actually go with at least 3 dresses i already have (being a bit of a fan of 60's mini dresses), which is better than them just being a novelty purchase-which to be honest is what people usually buy white 60's go-go boots for- you know fancy dress parties and suchlike

They look like this http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/White-Retro-Knee-60s-70s-Platform-GoGo-Go-Go-Boot-5-38_W0QQitemZ180193095835QQihZ008QQcategoryZ63889QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
I is happy.
