Savvy Shopping Sales Haul.

I know that I often make impulse purchases and also that I sometimes buy things that I like, purely because I like them and not because they suit my body shape but that said, there is also the odd occasion when I do consider myself to be a "savvy shopper" by scooping up some last minute sales bargains when the reductions are massive, that are actually well thought out and will work for the new season ahead.

After I put up last weeks post 5 things to buy now, wear later I had already ordered the French Connection Parka (now out of stock), a pair of skinny black jeans from Donna Ida and the Isabella Oliver jumper featured.

In addition to this I couldn't resist the Lounge Pants, also from Isabella Oliver, which I had been lusting after for a while and mentioned in my "From School Run to Slummy Mum" post and I have to say if you are looking for something to wear indoors on a lazy rainy Sunday, these are of the most amazing material ever, so soft, I have never felt anything like it! Bring on autumn so I can lay on the sofa watching DVD's in these, bliss.  You can get an extra 10% off of Sale items from the IO 365 collection by using code SPECIAL712 at checkout.

I must add that the parka, jeans and Isabella Oliver stuff are all things I most definitely would have bought at full price as I know lots of you stick to this rule when shopping the sales.

Oh and did I mention the case of two last minute summer dresses? Thought not.

Orange Dress from LK Bennett.

White Dress by Linea Weekend.

Its a definite spending ban from now until, forever!

Have you shopped ahead in the sales or bought any last minute holiday wardrobe bargains?
