PINCH PUNCH, WHAT HAVE YOU BOUGHT THIS MONTH? October 2010!

**Elle Driver** · 01-10-2010, 07:47am

I'm assuming this is where Damz would like us to post...

The floor's yours ladies

**book_lover** · 01-10-2010, 09:12am

It's never October

I got a load of stuff for my holiday from H&M (sale rail), have lost a few pounds so it was really nice to go shopping

No time for pictures but a nice sun dress, a black ruffle front dress for the evening, a skirt which is not quite mini - perfect, with big flower print and so easy to throw on. Also a black voluminous maxi skirt for a fiver

I also got some denim trousers from Primark which have gathered ankles. Have been after something like this since I got some cornflower blue denim ones in Bershka in Spain earlier in the year. I don't know why but I love gathered ankles. The denim on the Primark ones is a bit cheapy feeling, hope it will soften up in the wash.

ED I have finally bought something which isn't from AllSaints

**book_lover** · 01-10-2010, 09:54am

That purple dress - lovely!

**Minky** · 01-10-2010, 10:06am

Love that purple dress!

.

**Elle Driver** · 01-10-2010, 10:08am

Joanne!

WOOOHOOOO!

LOVE that purple colour, it's gorgeous.

**Dr Spouse** · 01-10-2010, 10:23am

Am working at home today and hoping some delivery man or other will battle through the rain to bring me something!

**Elle Driver** · 01-10-2010, 10:34am

Me too Dr S! ;-)

**Greenpea1** · 01-10-2010, 12:22pm

Joanne that purple is stunning

It's not a colour I think I could wear but it is gorgeous.

Bookie - your H&M haul sounds good

Well I didn't post much last month and I doubt I'll be buying too much this month either but I did order the H&M parka. I think it's the one posted about in a couple of the parka threads on here and opinion is divided on it

but I mainly need it for dog walks now it's getting cooler so hopefully it'll be fine.

**ditab** · 01-10-2010, 12:23pm

The parka is really nice IRL, greenpea, hope you like it

I love that tunic, Joanne, it's gorgeous

**Solitaire** · 01-10-2010, 12:35pm

Bookie, your H+M haul sounds fab. I've seen those Primmers trousers and they're really nice.

Lovely dress and tunic, joanne.

Fab parka, Greenpea.

Just ordered this for a christening in the New Year:

**Elle Driver** · 01-10-2010, 12:47pm

I like the H&M parka Greenpea!

**Toosh** · 01-10-2010, 12:57pm

October already - well I never...

I've been rather preoccupied with other stuff this week but before it all kicked off, I ordered these, both for work:

Which is lovely IF I could get it in the right size

The 10L was too big but right length, the 8R was right fit but too short and they're sold out of 8L. FFS.

Surprisingly nice IRL - if you take away the vile PU belt

and this but in the mink colourway

**donna-j** · 01-10-2010, 01:00pm

I bought the H&M parka too in a moment of weakness as I wrecked my South one by tumble drying it (mangy fur incident). I am pretty much hoping it mings as I don't need it.

Also, received these this morning via ebay. An exact replacement for my existing ones. I can't manage without silver flats

and these have been my favoutites so far.

**Elle Driver** · 01-10-2010, 01:01pm

The bag came back in stock?

Pleased so see you back sugar, what a week you've had

LOVE that dress btw, so 'you'.

Ah thanks baby

Yeah it's been a toughie alright but onwards and upwards as they say

Yeah the bag came back in and I ordered it but it's OOS again now

It *should* have been delivered to work but as I've not been in all week I have to wait to get it!

Re the dress, yeah that's what I thought!

Need to track down an 8L now

GOD it bugs me when things go OOS!

Meant to say Greenpea, like the parka

**Sadie** · 01-10-2010, 02:18pm

Nice dresses Joanne

.

Like the Parker Greenpea.

Love the Dress Toosh

.

A few Topshop buys which i bought today at lunch:

Military Style Light Grey Tunic (I have this in the pinky colour too, although i'm a size 8-10 i bought the 10 last time so thought i'd get the 8 this time around for a slightly different look):

Jumper, but in black:

Black Ankle Length Leggings (love these):

**Katoid** · 01-10-2010, 02:47pm

Hi ladies - apologies for not replying in the last thread.. Have felt in need of some retail therapy so have bought the black dress that you recommended Elle, thank you

and am awaiting its arrival..

I have also bought this

and more sunnies

by Michael Kors

Very nearly bought the Mulberry Leah hobo which is just divine and just what i am after - but i chickened out!!!

**Elle Driver** · 01-10-2010, 02:48pm

Really hope you'll be pleased with it. I had to send it back for an exchange as it had a hole in it

but I received it back today and still love it.

Great jacket and yes, I'll say you deserve some RT

How are you now?

**Katoid** · 01-10-2010, 02:54pm

Grrr thats a pain! Glad you still love it tho :)

Thanks my love, I am still feeling really sh1tty but am now looking for a companion for my Mum's horse so that is keeping my mind occupied - have been to see the RSPCA today, as we would love to re home an abandoned animal but it was bittersweet.. gah, I feel like I have a big hole in my heart and its not nice :( xx
