    £2.50 spent on a pair of 'not your daughters jeans' Which I have never had before and must say they fit like a dream and are a really nice length. I have heard they are really good but normally very expensive so think I got a bit of a bargain ;)

    So bang goes my spend free Sep :o

  • I bought a plain black fleece - 15.99 (incl.p&p) - this definitely falls in the category of "needed" so I feel fully justified with this one - unlike some of my recent purchases :o

  • Jackpot Organic Dress £6.00 - nice for Autumn / Winter will wear to death, Cardi - £3.99 - basically just really pretty. I need an entire naughty staircase just for me.... :-(

  • Somerandom dress and cardi sound lovely and a bargain if you are going to wear them loads.
    Sam I need winter sweaters too so might have to join you with some spends :cool:

    Mavvy good find with the jeans. I think if you find jeans that fit well, always get them. Whenever I've been out looking for jeans it can result in trying on and on and on before finding any. If they are from cs and fit - double result :T

    I haven't spent, but I want to. I think I must have got rid of most warm clothes when I had a good sort out, so now I don't know what to wear. Must give myself time to have a good tootle around - I don't often find nice knitwear in cs though, it usually looks a bit worn.

    Went out shopping with my Aunt and Uncle (who came up for the weekend and stayed with me) and they treated me to a lovely grey jumper from White Stuff. (20% discount). So no additional spend to my clothes budget.
