The Crazy £100 Clothes Challenge

Miss-spent_2

Hi I think you are going to throw me out of the club. I know I didn't ever officially take the pledge but I have enjoyed the company.
Any way here goes. Following my colour analysis I hit the shops yesterday with brilliant long suffering husband in tow.
I bought in M&S
4 t-shirts in £16
Per una cardi £35
Per una trousers £45
Cardi £18
Trousers were the only ones I could get to fit and I desperately need some for holiday next week. I think I will return cardi as its not right colour.
Debenhams;
John Roche pink wool coat £42.50 (from £85)
Jane Norman T-Shirt £12
Wallis Jumper £10 (was £20)
and a raspberry jumper which should have been £6 but the cashier didn't charge me (only realised at home)
Finally I bought 4 pashminas from a stall £5
So taking into account vouchers and VAT reductions I spent about £160 which I had been saving for and I may return some stuff.
Am I expelled?

Ebay clothes sold, made £25, but am holding in emergeny incase I run out of clothing budget! xx

if you don't mine me asking, where did you get the tankinis from? I can never find ones with proper shorts-style bottoms and a long vest top!

Evening all,

My monthly update:

Previous balance 43.89.

Sold a suit on ebay + 6.00

Bought trousers and top on ebay -4.99 (including postage)

Net gain 1.01, therefore, new balance 44.90.

Good news is, I've now lost 21 pounds ( that's a whole one and a half stone) at weightwatchers, which means I can now wear the clothes in my second to last bag of "small stuff" in the loft!! How good is that! (Would insert smiley at this point if I knew where it was).
