    I'm being swayed by all the lovely spring clothes I'm seeing atm - had to give myself a stern talking to in NL today and walk out.

    Just think how cold you'd be with the weather as it is at the moment ;)

    Here's a laugh for you... so I have a rather large collection of "only wear at home clothes" things I've seen and loved but aren't really things a plus size (< not so much that bit more this bit >>) grown adult should be wearing in public, was just popping out to collect an avon book, going in the car just had to hop out to pick it up thought fine noone will see me no need to get changed. Did brush my hair though because I thought a nest of green hair can be seen by passing drivers haha. Then get a phone call while I'm out can you go get some bread.... urgh! So I went to tescos in my marvel comic book leggings, VERY brightly coloured, and a XXL mens hoody, I'm only 5 foot 3! and because I have a swollen toe and they were the only thing I could get on relatively pain free some really old falling apart and covered in chicken poo summery little pumps :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I keep thinking if I had a more streamlined wardrobe I wouldn't have these why do I even own this moments lol.

    #11 de-lurking to say I have not spent £30.50 - used gift card I'd forgotten about - hurrah :j treated self to 2x t-shirts, a dress and 2x tights and still have £9.50 left on the card. Am in the middle of another clothes purge at home so will easily satisfy the 'one item in = two items out' rule.


    total is still £0/£300


    re-lurking.....

    Hi Jill
    I'd like to join please. Budget £50 per month. I have to reduce spending and have far too many clothes already. I will boost with eBay sales if possible 👍

    I know what you mean, was back to winter yesterday, spring again today though :D

    Those leggings sound right up mine and Mav's street. My Tikiboos managed another half marathon at the weekend :) I'm sure you gave the security guard at Tesco a real treat to the eye :rotfl::rotfl:

    As I WFH I tend to live in comfies these days, do need to try and make an effort to start looking more respectable and stop living it pjs, clothes fit for decorating and clothes for the gym.

    trickster76,

    I'm Kim; I don't think we have a Jill unless I've missed someone else who is wanting to join? As you've mentioned clothes in your post, I think you meant to post in this thread and have added you to the list. You are number 36.

    Good luck.

    £63.94 to add to my total, I have a dress to wear to DD's wedding, although of course I may change my mind yet.
    Spend less now, work less later.
