Mango Sale - EPIC
Last week I was just minding my own business when I was reminded by a friend about the Mango sale. Reluctantly I went over to the website and I was then trapped for a long time deciding what to buy! I've been so good for the past 9 months to not buy everything I see .. so it was a dedicated purchasing decision when I added things into my shopping basket. I could have added 1 million more items but as I say, I am trying to be careful about how I shop. I've become incredibly tight too so if it's not on offer/sale or just a complete bargain anyway I won't buy it. One day I'm sure I'll fall into that pot of money I was born to fall into but until then I'm going to be a tight shopper.
Here is the haul - £70 in total which I think is bloody brilliant for a jacket, jeans, top, 2 bracelets and 2 necklaces.
Here is me layering it up! (the jeans are not the ones you see in the photo above, these are my TK Maxx bargains bought last year)
Question though .. what to wear on your feet when you have low boots like I have on? Am I going to have to get some of those silly sockettes? Is that even how you spell it? I have bare feet but as it's snowing outside I feel a bit daft!

That's a pretty good haul, I have just paid more than 30 quid for a second hand Zara jacket on eBay!
ReplyDeleteOooh do show and tell when it arrives
DeleteAmazing bargains! That jacket looks fab. Understand re the boot question, I am always cold so couldn't possibly not wear socks. My ankle black suede boots look ok with a single turn up and I wear black socks. Maybe wear a sock and roll down a notch? x
ReplyDeleteI tried to roll down but could still see them so bare cold feet for me!
DeleteCan't wait to wear the jacket again
I wear trainer socks. Great haul, love all the pieces you bought x
ReplyDeleteLol trainer socks, yes that's the right name for them!
DeleteThat's a great haul!! love the jacket LOTS! And a great question about the socks. I tend to match the trousers but that's tricky with denim. In the case of these boyfriends, I would do barefoot with those white cotton sockettes...yes..it's up there with jeggings as a truely awful fashion word..haha! Ax
ReplyDeleteYes the word sockette and pop socks make me shudder! !!
DeleteI did go bare foot but not sure I could for a long time or when walking lots
Trainer socks! And fab fab haul. So lovely to see you with your hair down! Xx
ReplyDeleteHair frizzy and horrible again so it's up again now. Trainer socks will be my next purchase
DeleteADORE that jacket - there is a coat similar on the US site that I am very tempted by but it's summer here!:(
ReplyDeleteLet's not forget we never get summer here - always need a jacket even in 'summer'!!
DeleteI shall be going to sports shop to buy trainer socks (which I can wear with my converse too!)
Oh and yes I always wear the little low cut socks with boots:)
ReplyDeleteAnklets for me. And I am really sad - I even co-ordinate the colour of my anklets where I can so they blend in to the boot should you be able to see them for any reason. Sad. Really sad.
ReplyDeleteThe Mango jacket was worth the wait - it looks fab on you. I even got to the point where I was hovering over the button thinking "Should I??" but I have bought too many jackets recently.
The question I need to ask is - where is your belt from???
I'm as sad as you then because I will be buying grey, black and brown trainer socks to match the boots!
DeleteBelt is from Sainsbury's! £6
That jacket is just gorgeous Fiona, you've reminded me that I have a mango one that's only been on me once. I hate having cold ankles so have been doing normal socks with ankle boots and just hope no one notices!
ReplyDeleteI did try to leave a comment here via the iphone during the weekend but the stupid thing wouldn't work for me .. so I'm here again to say that I think you look STUNNING!! Adore the top .. such a flattering shape .. & the jacket is sensational. Big thumbs up from Flaky!!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I have tried before on my phone to leave comments and they look like they've been sent but .. not!
DeleteI felt really good wearing it and that's half the confidence trick - to feel good/look good and then a great day is had!
