    Hi All

    I'd love to sign up to this one please, I've lost three dress sizes (four on bottoms) this year, hoping to do the same next, so I'm going to aim for £150 if thats ok, otherwise I'll be holding up my clothes with safety pins (though that does mean plenty to ebay once they're too big).
    Good luck all

    Congrats natsing - I'm soooo proud of you, keep up the good work. I'm sure with your determination you'll sail through to your goal this year.

    Count me in for the clothes challenge - only will be keeping myself in check though as I have a 2 year old daughter who grows out of clothes quicker than I can wash and iron them
    Crazy £100 Clothes Challenge 2010 No. 136 = £0/£100 budget
    Sealed Pot Challenge 2010 No. 897 - £59.36:p

    OK, I've crumbled already....

    £9.60

    Which I spent in the Regatta sale on a pair of those trousers which turn into shorts and a t-shirt. All 70% off so good value and I need these things for a trip I'm taking later in the year.

    Still have £90 to go at least!!! :cool:
    I've got my own flat :j:j

    Now I have to pay the bills :eek:

    And feed my interiors addiction ;)
  • Can you put my name down too? This definately the kick up the bum I need. Ive not spent anything so far but will be soon as im going on holiday and will need some decent leggings but i will update when i've bought them. Good luck everybody xx

    I still havent spent anything. On a diet and so not confident atm, so that is putting me off shopping x

    Thanks Lula!
    If my waist was as skinny as my purse at the moment i certainly wouldn't be able to save so much cash!! :rotfl:

    Also i would certainly recommend scouring posh charity shops, there's one me and a friend go to and the best purchase ever was a vintage dior jacket for £10 (unfortuntely not my buy hers) But its a beautiful staple piece for her wardrobe!
  • :jA pair of brand new boots off Ebay for £5.95. Bought them to wear with my skirts. Will make a few things, as plenty of bits of dress material. Loads of stuff i have never worn.
