    But i did treat myself to the most b-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l new shoes and they were free :j:j - well purchased with amaz*n vouchers - they really are lovely and comfy too - with their 5.5inch heel :smileyhea 'i'm so tall i'm so tall... oops :o am i showing my age now or simply mis-remembering lyrics ? :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Hi,

    No spends for me in February :T

    Well done everybody who hasn't bought any clothes this month, and congratulations to anybody getting amazing bargains.

    My daughter has moved out of her apartment this week and a few bags of unwanted clothes went to the charity shop via me ;), I managed to aquire a black top with white spots which I think will look pretty good under a cardigan that I have, and whilst this cardigan has been freed in the past it has it's limitations as to what I can wear with it. So really hoping the new combo works. Also got a few scarves that I will have a play around with and see whether they're 'me'. Will have a look on youtube to see different ways of wearing them.

    Right, bring on March :)

    Wow! I'm in awe of all those who didn't spend in Feb. I'm declaring my current total at £56.24, which includes the sunglasses I boughht in TK Maxx but not the vest tops in Primarni as I need to try those on at home. I guess I'm doing ok as my budget works out about £40 a month. :A

    went outside without tights on and my likkle legs went a matching shade of bluie/whitish/purplie to the dress :( not a good look. Back indoors after hanging the washing out and just off to get the thick tights back on.

    hope everyone has a great weekend. tera for now

  • 50p for a pair of boots, now thats what I call a bargain!!

    No spends for me in February either :j Lets see if I can keep up the good work in March.

    Now that it is technically spring (in my head anyway) I can free a whole new load of clothes from the wardrobe.
