So I ought to declare where the jump from £72 to £123 came from..!

Well I had a pootle around the n3xt website and after much faffing about returning two items that didn't fit (skinny trousers too skinny on my calves and baggy on the waist, I can reconcile myself with the too-big-on-the-waist problem but I didn't think my calves were especially hefty?! :rotfl: Perhaps skinny trousers are just not for me..!) I have spent £51 including p&p on:

1 rather gorgeous spotted skirt I have already mentioned £26 (tut tut )
1 pair of berry wide-leg tailored trousers £9 :A
1 leopard-y top £4 :A
1 blue and black panel skirt £8 :A

I'm including the £3.99 p&p, just as a major source of spends for me is online shopping so if I have to include the p&p, it might help me hesitate that bit longer!

Right time to finish my coffee and get some work done!

:coffee:

Just dropping by to declare a spend after having had two no spend months. With this lovely sunshine I've got fed up with hot feet today so picked up a pair of sandals from Asda for £8. Interestingly all my spends so far have been shoe or bag related. In the snow in January I bought snow boots and wellies, February I had a new bag and now I've bought sandals

Just thought I'd pop on and report no more spends, even though I went to a wedding this weekend and also was in Glasgow so huge chances of "shopping".
I had a freedom day:T
a dress I've owned for about 3 years and worn about once. Lovely floral print 50's style.http://http://i.ebayimg.com/t/Fever-London-Floral-Cezanne-Side-Lace-Dress-Tropical-Tea-Dress-Size-14-Box103-hh-/00/s/Nzk4WDYwMA==/$(KGrHqNHJBsF!jp6jCT0BQdYMMfi(!~~60_35.JPG.
Wore it with a pair of yellow suede shoes and a red cardie and dug aout a 50's style bag I had in a my wardrobe that I'd picked up for 50p ages ago in a carboot.

Actually a very wedding-y outfit!!

Didn't do any of the high street stores but was in the Westend and did lots of CS and vintage shops but resisted:T. Will visit again with my DS when she starts uni there, absolutely great wee area for shopping ...and eating.

Hi Guys

sorry I have been basically not here, I havent even had the chance to catch up.

Had some seriously stressful months, but hopefully far more plain sailing ahead of me.

I am now going to update - and yes you can see the stress in the amount I spent in April... stress shopping... nothing worse. I am counting them in now and I hope I am so disgraced that I ebay some of these things to get money back.

I will update the front page as best as I can but I think it is better, if I update and then everyone correct me as with all the totals etc, I am trying to fuigure out backwards who hasnt been spending!!

So in summary - check the front page and then post to correct me
