  • I've been avoiding charity shops recently as trying to de-clutter!!

    I relented this week and picked up a Phase Eight LBD for Christmas parties. It's a very plain jersey one with slightly flared knee length skirt and v neck The reason I bought it was because it has elbow length sleeves which are the best length for my arms. It was £7.49.

    Have got some nice jewellery to 'jazz it up'.
    A minute at the till, a lifetime on the bill.

    Nothing tastes as good as being slim feels.

    one life, live it!

    My find today was a Radley scarf, which is a lambs wool and cashmere blend for £1 :)

    Very jealous!
    A waist is a terrible thing to mind.

    I have had a few myself of late, here goes:

    2 x pairs of retro green, cream curtain not faded at all 90 x 100" - been looking for many a month for a couple of sets of curtains for my sitting room and was soo pleased. Both sets for £12
    1 x tweed Gil Brett wool winter coat which doesn't look like its been worn that much. £14
    1 x big bag of material (and I mean large) I can now get on and make some xmas pressies. £2.49 :D
    2 x super king size Harrods merino wool blankets for £3. (I thought it was for 1 as I needed the blanket to wrap my spuds in in the shed but these blankets are top quality and will now go on my bed). Still need a blanket for the spuds tho!

    yesterday I got a brand-new Cath Kidston-esque PVC shopping bag. It's blue with pink/red roses & I also picked up a matching (new) wash-bag for £1.99 each. I was rushing past the CS to get to the car before my parking ran out but saw the shopper in the window so had to call in :D

    I got them for my daughter for Christmas to match the lanyard & key ring that I had just bought from the Cath Kidston shop :D

    £1.79 for a black woolly hat with a fetching crocheted rosette. Figured it was a better deal than the limegreen fluffy bowler hat for £2.99 which was a bit too big. Doesn't clash with the blue tartan shopping trolley. I practised muttering to myself as I wheeled myself and my purchases home.

    New Per Una winter coat £8. The shop said Marks had dropped four coats of earlier that day. Lucky me x
    Make £2 a day challenge - doing well so far.
