Re: How Much????

Would spend or should spend, that is the question............

Honestly, over a year, I'd say around 70 sfr, thats 30£ or 50 euros approx per week

Difficult to say..........tend to spend in bursts more than regular money dribbling away.

Re: How Much????

Hard to estimate - over the whole year about £30 per week averaged out. Don't let my OH see this, he thinks I only wear clothes that I've 'found' at the back of the wardrobe!! LOL Unless there is a special occasion like a wedding or a holiday then it's anyone's guess!!!

OH Anne,
I'm going to tell.

I too miraculously find "What?this old thing?" in my wardrobe too.

Just have to remember to take the tags off first thing when I get home.

Re: How Much????

I have an evening jacket still in the shop bag, label on, they don't take evening stuff back, 2 years after purchase.

It was sooo expensive. about 300£. And I hate it. Doesn't suit me at all. But feel too awful to even take it to a second hand shop.

A years money in one go. I feel sick just thinking about it.

Phew. I've confessed. Feel better now.

Anyone wants an awful jacket, pink and glittery and awful design?

Re: How Much????

Did you say Pink????? and glittery???????Well Pinkannie give it to our Anne.

She has pink killer heels (above) to match and I for one know she has a pink feather boa in the back of the same wardrobe which she wore on a recent shindig in Dublin. OH the shame.!!!!


There you go!!!!! Outfit sorted. What to wear under the jacket is now the problem.

I was thinking of something in lime green lycra and DONT forget the bag. Must carry a bag daaaaaaling.

Re: How Much????

Would it be an orange bag and hat or would that be just a tad OTT????
I thought that my pink feather boa was a perfect match for your lime green sparkly flip flops. And I thought it was our stunning good looks that got us all the attention on Grafton Street?? I'm wounded now!!!!

Re: How Much????

OMG now I've gone and upset you!!!!! Would I ever!!!!
We were killers on Grafton Street and the only fly in our ointment was your daughter.
Only for her we would have pulled those two. Remember????? She dragged us away.

Spoilsport that she is.

Orange is the new black so go ahead wear it. It would go fabulous with your colouring daaaaaling although now I can see Pinkie having second thoughts about giving it to you.

After all she has a wedding coming up soon too.

Re: How Much????

You are right - pinkie HAS gone very quiet about the jacket - maybe she IS having second thoughts !!!!
Well, I suppose I could send my feather boa over to her!!!
With regard to the two on Grafton Street.... you don't suppose it was because you pinched their BTMs that they ran off, do you??

Would I ever!!!!!!!

NOT ME!!! Am now off home for the weekend so I'll talk soon. Life is just wonderful at the moment without the dreaded word begining with F.

Stay quiet about the jacket - she may not notice and send it on anyway.

Re: How Much????

Oh gosh...... I think that I spent more on books, mags and DVD's in a year than I spent on clothes, etc for myself.....
Every month I get 25 Beautiful Homes, BBC Homes and Antiques and W&H. And that is it! And I get about 1 at most 2 Engl.language books most months, although I haven't bought any books this month yet. Nor DVD's for that matter.
About a month ago I bought two tops in hte sales for a total of 30 Euros, and several weeks before that ivory coloured cotton trousers for Euros 25.... and that was it.
And a pair of Geox summer shoes in hte sales for about Euros 59.
I have not worn any of this yet, as I had no opportunity.... On the whole do not spent much on clothes and such.... very little in fact, as on the whole I find the choice extremely limited. Thankfully I have loads of clothes that I do like have had them for many many years, and are predominantly English bought/made.
