The 2010 crazy clothes challenge

Suziebea

No new clothes this week, so no change to the total.

Reading Flicking Ember's post reminded me that my PJ's have seen better days, but the spring is coming, and I wont need my "cosy" PJ's much longer this year. Could ask for new for Christmas, I suppose!!

(My birthday has already been and gone)

I'm not buying it :A

Hmmmmm..... doesn't even go up to my size!!! It is lovely though.... Although I can't for the life of me see why the original price should be £109 if they can reduce it down to a tenner. Just shows how much profit they're making....

I went to Primark and I bought:
3 Cath Kidston looky-likey bags,
a pair of maracite bow earrings -also CK lookalikes,
a pair of flowery fabric earrings (I want to re-cover these)
a 100% real genuine and authentic (yeah, right) pearl bracelet with cream fabric rose - just want the flower to make a brooch
- 4 spotty mugs: 2 pink 2 blue (CK style again)

AND NO CLOTHES

Sounds like I need to go to Primark! It sounds wonderful there!

I can't find out how much my jogging bottoms were - I think they were less than a fiver each, and then about £3 for delivery, so could you put me down for £13? Thanks

I'm really struggling to find a new bra that fits, I've only got 1 that's not got the underwires sticking out. I've got 3 with sticking out underwires, and no matter how often I resew the holes up they still come out again. Could I just take the underwire out or would it make it look strange?

I have some buys today.
29.99 for a skirt from Coast.
6.00 for some tights.
I am going to be complaining about the tights though, there meant to be velvert feel, yeah right - and one of the pairs out of the two had a gaping hole in the waste band!

Oh so pretty, and I do need a new bra. And they have 1 left in my size... but I wasn't so happy with the VAT and delivery charges taking up to £15.99! Even if it was once £109 :eek: So I've refrained

I also need a new swimming costume, does that come under necessity or do I declare that when I eventually find one I like

NGlady

I think that comes under necessity - but I think Hula its up to you what you include in your target. When im not sure about whether things are from one pot or another, i take half and half

Sending you lots of positive vibes debbiedeejay - just think about having to confess all when you get back - that should do it!

Depends on the bra rosepink - I did that with a couple of mine and they were fine, tried it on another one and it looked awful. Underwires are a pain, they always poke through eventually even though the rest of the bra is fine . Maybe try it and see how it looks - you could always push the underwire back again? Good luck.

I have been feeling very restrained , even managed to put back a tunic in monsoon that had been reduced from £95 to £29. My freind was helpful and pointed out that I complain about dry cleaning costs and when i have washed silk It needs careful ironing , which I hate.

My cousin has thrown a slight spanner in the works by announcing a wedding on the 3rd of April. I have 'shopped' in my wardrobe and found 4 BNWT skirts from coast:eek: that will be suitable. At the moment I think it will be the cream tulle with applique red flowers, I have a pair of hand made red satin shoes that I can wear with this but I need a top and either a shrug or a pashmina.I have a couple of so so hand bags but my freind has a worse handbag fettish than me so hopefully borrow. I reckon I have a month to shop around before I need to panic too much so am off to look on ebay/ebid brand alley at a push. I really don't want primarni . Unfortunately I don't know anyone my size as my first thought had been to borrow.

Fingers crossed for a coast / monsoon top for under a fiver
