Completely Crazy Clothes Challenge 2017

I deff need some new running trainers, have had mine nearly two years and trained / ran three half marathons in them, tonight found that the sole of one is starting to come away from the fabric part which isn't a good sign. Prob done 400 - 450 miles in them now so I guess it's time.

Hi folks

Not a lot to report, except I still haven't used any of my clothing budget for the year :rotfl:
Sold some stuff on the Bay and purchased clothes / shoes with the profits and still have money left over, so not doing too bad

Hello all, I haven't posted for ages, sorry. Unlike some others my lack of activity isn't an indication of avoiding the shops as I've spent quite a chunk of my budget and its only May...oops!
Since my last post I've splurged on a work dress and two pairs of trousers. As they've all already been worn quite a few times, I can justify their purchase, plus they were all discounted.
One thing I am happy about is that the work dress is machine washable, as I often buy dry clean only incurring extra cost. I remembered to check the label before buying this time - a small win me thinks...

Picked up a lovely green cardi from CS - John Lewis brand new. £3.50. I'm still very short on cardis due to the great moth feast earlier this year.

April and May have flown by and no spends either months so five months in and only £9.99 spent this year still unfortunately this also means that i have lost no weight so no new clothes .

Help! After spending an evening wriggling uncomfortably in my strapless bra, I need to find one that is vaguely comfortable to wear. Any recommendations from you lovely lot?

My total spends this year still stand at 38p. Tomorrow I am going to a swishing party and hoping for some good finds. I may be optimistic and choose clothes that I hope I lose the weight to fit into so that If I do lose weight I don't have to buy a brand new wardrobe and ruin my no spend year.

I can dream.

Thanks somerandom I did look at that one, my main issue is the bones digging in under my boobs and that looked more like it wouldn't. I don't have significant 'assets' to keep in place (trust me, I did contemplate removing my bra entirely on the night out) but don't feel entirely comfortable wearing nothing.
