The 2010 crazy clothes challenge

newlywed

First day of the month and I'm still at £0. Although I did just find a new charity shop on my way to work - one that's moved to larger premises - so more stock :eek:

Thankfully it was closed as it was before 9am

In tesco I put down the dress and the two pairs of trouser I don't need. Yes, they were in the sale but they weren't as cheap as the poster suggested so I put them back.

Well done, Knitty.

I haven't spent anything yet, but only because i haven't been into any shop that sells clothes.

I don't know how I'll react when i meet real temptation. Finding something i like in several colours has always been my downfall - i was a "one-of-each" spender.

:mad:Nasty MR Deb sent me a letter today with a £5 voucher if I spend £30 as not spent anything with them for a while(the store being in a different mall to the main shops)
it also said if I don't use the card by the end of feb thay will cancel it:mad:

so as they obviously don't need my custom as OH said say goodbye to it:money:we did use it a lot when boys were small to get money off (spent ages before paying as vouchers then were so much off per £ and had lots of different values....not sure if they are still like that
nails starting to chip so with OH away tonight will try a new colour

A new month. i am happy with my spend for last month. i would have spent ten times that any other year. i aim to spend less or nothing this month.

Ok ladies quick question, can you/would you wear navy and orange together??

I have a navy pencil skirt, navy shoes (which I've just re-cycled from strapped to slip on - I actually snapped the strap trying to get them on, was too lazy to open then) and a navy bag. I've never worn them as couldn't find much that went but I tried them on with an orange v-neck jumper and it looks rather nice, I also have an orange bag if navy is too much. I don't want to get laughed at in the street, advice please!

absolutely they look great together

Why not? Anything goes and the main thing is that you think it looks nice.
Sounds a bit different, you'll probably start a trend.

Got myself a bargain bag (was in desparate need of one) today at £7, which leaves me with £173 for the rest of the year.... also being doing suverys with tonula and waiting on around £45 of love to shop vouchers... so think i'm gonna come in well under budget this year :beer:
