    Sarah - During my lurking I noticed you like Autumn/Winter clothes shopping - totally agree! There is sooo much nice stuff around!! All in lovely colours, purple, navy blue, pink and teal. I'm buying a few things, but I'm quite worried I might get carried away...

    :jto Autumn/Winter clothes:jHaving been deprived of clothes shopping over the last few months I am also getting a bit carried away. :D Agree with you about the colours, everything is so lovely:D

    ShoeGal, you can definitely wear that dress. :j

    Happy New Clothes sarah :j now get thyself over to the clothes challenge & confess all please :naughty: you are a very bad example & yes that is the envy talking :rotfl:.

    :rotfl:I am not veturing over there until I have bought everything so I can provide a total. At which point I will pop in, confess, ban myself from the thread and never darken it again. :D

    Er no missy :p,

    you dont get to ban yourself, that is my decision, & if I feel that you have misled us all with your apparent ease of abstinence, then I shall insist that you repeat the whole process again next year :rotfl:

    The dress is lovely Shoe Gal. You can definitely wear it with or without tights.

    The Autumn/Winter shopping is driving me nuts. I want to buy everything!! I'm currently drooling over things on the Oasis website.

    I'm eyeing up this jacket, but I'm not sure because they do it in navy too. Which colour do I get? I'm tempted to get both :eek:

    Just tried on the clothes that arrived today again, they are a good fit but as two of them are wool and might shrink I am sending them back for the bigger sizes, so technically I have only spent another £20 so far;)
