Bought this for the winter walks, it's much nicer than the pic shows. https://www.altura.co.uk/images/altura-twister-womens-insulated-jacket-p305-126053_medium.jpg

Also bought this from Powercut along with a pair of their FNCTL leggings. Fabulous quality and the cut of the jacket is very flattering. I'm so impressed that I'm going to buy the purple one.

That coat from Dunnes is gorgeous!! Must look out for it!

I ordered these boots from Safura today. I had seen them a while back and forgot about them. Can't find any ankle boots I like anywhere, so decided to try these. Faux Suede Pointed Boot - Taupe 39 | safura.ie

I bought these Nike trainers just before Christmas. Love them, so comfy! The nike swish at the side is glittery! So cute!

Ciarrai76 · 28-01-2022 9:38pm

I got this jumper in Mango today reduced to €20. They have a concession store in Shaws now. Love Mango!

I also got these Puma joggers reduced too reduced to €25 Puma Essentials joggers in grey | ASOS

Ciarrai76 · 12-02-2022 2:24pm

I got this lovely jumper in Vero Moda yesterday. Reduced to €15 from €49.99. I had been looking at it for a while, but felt it was too expensive to begin with!

Ciarrai76 · 04-03-2022 9:51pm

I finally treated myself and ordered a pair of Veja trainers! I have wanted to get a pair of them for about 2 years! I couldn't decide on which ones, but I got the V-10. I ordered them directly from the Veja website. They were €130 with free delivery. Can't wait for them to arrive!

Sir_Name · 06-03-2022 7:55am

Are they comfy? I’ve yet to pull the trigger on those however Im so tempted

They haven't arrived yet, due in a few days. I'm praying they are comfy! I tried on a pair of someone I know, and they seemed nice, but I have heard they can be a bit stiff to start with, but mould into your foot! So fingers (and toes) crossed! ;)

Ciarrai76 · 08-03-2022 9:26pm

The Vejas arrived this morning! I love them! They are a bit stiff, but I have read that in reviews and that they do soften out and mould to your feet. The tongue is a bit annoying as it comes up quite high, but hopefully it won't be too bad. They will go with everything as the colour I got is so plain!

Ciarrai76 · 14-03-2022 8:34pm

I bought these wide leg trousers from M&S, they are sort of a tracksuit material I bought them in the short leg, but even then they are quite long! I'm just under 5'4 and they are still quite long for the short version. They are lovely though, really like them. The also come in regular and long leg.

I bought a pair of Vejas here, signed up for their newsletter and got 10% off

Not sure if I like them, as Ciarrai said, they are a bit stiff to begin with and they are definitely more comfortable now. They feel a bit plasticky though, I'll have to make to wear cotton socks with them

banoffe2 · 21-03-2022 7:55pm

Hi Ciarri76 I see these on a lady I behind me in the queue at the supermarket, thought they were absolutely fab on she was small and petite, they were very long almost touching the ground but a fab look on, they were the exact same style but the ones with the beige stripe, she told me she got them in Marks, I think they are best suited for small and petite or tall and skinny , well wear

I've worn mine a few times now and they are definitely softening and not as stiff. The tongue is a bit on the big size, but its not too bad. They do feel a bit plastic, I think they are some sort of leather uppers though. I love mine, glad I got the plain colour as they are going to go with everything. I've wanted them for so long now, glad I got them!

Ciarrai76 · 03-04-2022 11:15pm

I have a serious addiction to trainers now, I may need help!

Ordered these Nikes this evening. These were reduced to €58 from €89.99, but I did have an online Nike voucher too, so I don't feel too guilty! Nike Daybreak Women's Shoes. Nike IE

Ciarrai76 · 06-04-2022 7:59pm

The Nikes I ordered are reduced on Asos and there's an extra 30% off so great value! Nike Daybreak trainers in black and white | ASOS

Ciarrai76 · 10-04-2022 8:41pm

I popped into Next today, not realising they had a sale on! I got this top in their sale.

I also ordered these joggers from ASOS

Russell Athletic R panel cuffed joggers in persian red | ASOS

Ciarrai76 · 17-04-2022 11:21am

I returned the red joggers to ASOS. They looked lovely, but very tight on and the white ribbed line up the middle of legs makes them too stiff and uncomfortable. Pity as they are a nice colour etc.

That's a shame. I was thinking they could be annoying to have the piping up the centre of the leg so it'd press into your knee anything you bent down. They're been in my wish list but time to let them go now!

Ciarrai76 · 30-04-2022 8:47pm

I got these tops in Mango (they have some lovely casual tops!). I got this one in their Shaws concession store Striped cotton t-shirt - Woman | Mango Ireland

I ordered this one online (wasn't in the shop)

Their site wasn't great to order on. I had issues with it not processing the order if I used a different delivery address, I had to have it the same as my billing (which I didn't want to do). I also had an online voucher for mango, which I entered and it had deducted, but when I got my payment confirmation it wasn't showing and I was charged the full amount. So annoying. Would put me off using their website again.

Message cotton sweatshirt - Woman | Mango Ireland

I bought this from The Casual Company last week, nice fit, decent material and it has pockets, lol. Unfortunately the pockets stick out a bit on the hips but I found if I position the inside of the pockets towards the back, it looks much more smooth if that makes sense. Looking forward to wearing it in the warmer weather.
