    haha you found us lovely =) Mine doenst include underwear as I am so chesty that new bras are pricey and very necessary! but its up to you xx
    when I think my size is changing,which it seems to do despite my weight staying the same!!!!...have gone from 40 E to 34G?????? I go to get measured at Bravissimo as think they are the best(Debs and Marks wanted me to go to 42E when Bravissiomo said I was in fact 38) and buy 1 bra there then buy anymore I need from Brastop or Figleaves.I stick to brands I know will fit as found some band sizes are a few inches apart and I cannot fasted them on some brands e.g Triumph and Boux avenue

    Morning all!

    Bit of an unplanned spending spree to admit to :o Ev*ns sale - knee high boots £10, jumper £7, undies £7 and jewellery set £5. £29 in total but there was a discount at the till so it all came to £23.30. I can never get boots to fit my chubby legs so was well impressed with the boots :T

    Hurray another no spend weekend! Think I might make it for a whole no spend month (well on clothes anyway)

    I was in JL yesterday looking for new buttons for my bargain coat with tacky buttons but the only ones I liked were £3 each. Since I would need 6 for the coat and the coat only cost £10 in the first place I decided to do without. I can live with the buttons I am sure!

    However as I innocently browsed through the womenswear department (will I never learn?) literally everything in Oasis looked lovely and just my style. Will have to stay out of there for the forseeable future!
    What about looking in the charity shop for buttons? I have bought clothes in there - just for the buttons.

    I won a H&M £25 giftcard so DH is going to take me to the Mall if I'm feeling up to it sometime this week. :) I won't feel guilty because I'm not spending any of my money.:rotfl:

    been to town but did not buy any clothes:A....not for want of trying:rotfl:a shrug I loved had such a long tie I could imagine DH using it as a lead to pull me around:rotfl:a cami was too see through and the cardi I wanted was not on sale in JL(tho it is still in my online basket:rotfl:)

    I did buy a pair of shoes,not that they count in my total.half price flats,very sensible and what I really needed as the pair I wore today have gone so big after years of wear they are falling off and so uncomfortable.The SA brought me the left shoe but it was a different grain of leather so ha dto ask for the left shoe to another pair from the rack,am sure she thought I was being diffficult!!!I will need a heel grip as left foot smaller than right but think they will be ok:),can't believe the size of some platforms and heels,you would need steps to get into them....why do women wear them??????
