I bet you still don't wear all you have left Jacket sounds like a great buy and will make the few key pieces you have feel like new.

I am going down your route as I still have loads of clothes left in my wardrobe which I know I will really not wear.

4 well filled big bags are waiting for me to do something with :eek: I know there will be more to add to them so will just sort as I try things on and just get rid.

I have nothing suitable to wear on the bottom half for dog walking. Just one pair of skinny jeans left which are too long anyway, I've worn for the last four days and are now to be washed. Which means I'll have to wear work trousers for dog walking and gardening today and need to get myself sorted with some new stuff.

Cheap joggers for gardening, find them much more comfy than jeans when bending etc. how about running tights for dog walking? As they're closer to your skin they don't let the cold air in, and they dry quicker than jeans. If it was really cold, chuck aforementioned joggers over the top as an extra layer. I used to poo poo the idea of running tights for exercise, wearing joggers instead, got some at xmas when I took up actual running and I'm a convert. My joggers have been relegated to the 'just incase" gym pile but tbh I think they should be chucked out.

Thanks for the tips Kerri gt, I also have those over trouser thingies for now, so at least I can cover up my work trousers to protect them. Having said that, today's pair are now for the bin as past their best too. I really need to get in gear, plan my new look etc but the paid stuff keeps getting in the way and I'm miles away from town with few transport options.

At least I'm keeping to my budget!

I'm with you there. I took another bag to the cs, and gave some more things to my daughter (23). I was feeling a bit pleased with myself when she said "I'm lucky to have a Mum with good taste". Then she added " but these will look loads better on me". Cheeky mare. She's probably right though :rotfl:

Jazee I have the opposite problem - I've got about 6 pairs of jeans in my gardening pile. I don't even do much gardening

I have had a little spend. Some lovely jade coloured fitflop pumps from Ebay for £20 and some new French Connection grey linen trousers also Ebay fir £18. Both things I will wear loads and go with lots of things I already have.

Best buy of the year for me today Went to a bootsale and found a really super quality Brown leather large shoulder bag.Which I will use everyday.Very similar to my Blondie Mania bag I got some years ago for £180 :eek: (in my young and stupid days) For the grand total of 50p :eek::eek: So pleased with it It is perfect for me and exactly what I like and what I need Even better I will use it

So have added the 50p to my total :rotfl:

Spend to declare from last weekend 2 x CS buys: cost £5 two long sleeved tees

Lovely pink jumper bought as well as some much needed new slippers...the old ones had me scared for my life walking up the stairs! So a total of £9.40 to add to my totals

I also purchased a pair of trousers, but will be returning them as they are just 'ok' on...

Have made £23 on eBay though...added bonus of decluttering, so will deduct from my spends
