Right, so I don't go shopping very often, and I had a bit of a spree yesterday. It took me until now to post this because I had serious retail fatigue & was struggling to remember at the end of the day yesterday what I had purchased.
Evans was actually not too bad yesterday (I know sometimes it is dire!), I got:
- A blue tie dye gypsy skirt on sale for £20.
- A silvery little short-sleeve cardie to go with the top, that has just a bit of sparkly in it.
- A floral on black dress that comes just above my knee & I think I might get some (gasp!) leggings to go with it. But not to worry, it's long enough - I shall not be wearing the leggings as pants so my a*s won't be in anyone's face (wouldn't be a pretty sight!). Otherwise, trousers under it. Because it's just slightly above my knee, I think it does need something besides tights (or bare legs).
- Pair of linen-blend crinkly kinda trousers. My least favourite purchase, but I really needed some trousers & as long as they have a long top or dress over them, they'll be okay. For whatever reason, I usually just *hate* the trousers that I find here in the UK. I think it's something to do with the cut of them, because they are making higher waisted ones now - that used to be a problem. In the US, I usually get one or two specific kinds of trousers (at JC Penney usually) & I just can't find anything that fits like them here.
I bought a couple of scarves at M&S - one is silk & very pretty floral. The other was on sale for £5 - yay! I got these in case I want (or need) them when we go to Morocco in October.
(The summer clearance sales are on now girls!)
Bought some Lush goodies. Trialling a couple of the newer solid shampoos, again with a view to our trip in October. Plus my Angels on Bare Skin facial cleanser which I was out of. The Dorothy bubble bar. I think there might have been something else - have a hard time restraining myself when I go there!
I did get a couple of free samples for some other shampoo or conditioner things.
And I got a couple little things for a get-together I'm hosting tomorrow afternoon.
(Now I really need to sort out all my other clothes & get to charity shopping some, because I just don't have any idea these days what is located where in this house! I was looking for my Gok Wan magic knickers yesterday & my goodness - where have those got to? It's a mystery!
