It’s Friday, so it’s time to link up with the lovely Jocelyn from The Reading Residence and decide on my Word of the Week #WotW.
There are a few words that could describe our week. However, I think the one which sums things up best is;
Baby modelling her new H&M dress £2.99, Primark Blazer £6, Next Hi tops £8.50
Doing some shopping for our DIY project (on the blog soon)
As regular readers will know I have a weakness. Well actually I have a few, but the one in question is shopping for Baby clothes. I love finding cute outfits for her, much more than for myself. If there happens to be a sale on, then God help me! This week Baby has done VERY well for new threads.
Our week began with a trip into town with our friends K & TB. We popped into H&M (all K’s fault!) and I couldn’t help myself, such fabulous clothes in there. Amazingly good value, even without a sale. So I came out with a few bits for her. Later that day I received a lovely email offering us £50 of shopping vouchers to attend an event the next day. So on Tuesday myself, Baby and our friends went to the Oracle in Reading. I was so grateful for the Oracle vouchers, which allowed me to feed my Baby clothing addition again! As well as some other shops, I made my first visit to Baby Zara….. Let’s just say it won’t be my last.
Yesterday a package arrived from my mum with another new outfit in for Baby. I literally have no room left in her wardrobe.
On a serious note I think I may have a slight issue with shopping. As I seem to shop for Baby clothes when I am happy, when I am sad, anytime really. We haven’t got the funds to sustain my buying long term. I do realise that children don’t actually need a lot of clothes, they certainly don’t need a new outfit everyday… They grow so quickly, but this knowledge only makes me buy a bigger size and roll the sleeves up!
Do you buy unnecessary clothes for your children?
