Can't find a pic of the Penneys one online. I love it, although I've run into 2 people with the same one in the past week - such is the norm with Penneys stuff!
that's a lovely bag! is there a longer strap on it? I need a new bag, mainly for work. I have bought a few bags in the past year in TK Maxx, brands which I considered good, such as Bessie London & Nika, but they are starting to look really shabby, especially the Bessie one! I am better off buying bags in Penney's at this stage! I wish I could afford a good leather handbag though, everything is so expensive, but I know it would last!0 -

I got a lovely bag in Mango, like this one but in red and it seems very good quality, like it's going to last. I only have it a few months but it still looks like new! And they aren't massively expensive. 0 -

Update on the fit of this. Wore this to a ball over the weekend, very appropriate I thought!
I'm 5'7.5" and a 12. The dress is a perfect fit, fitted around the bust, nips the waist and skims over the hips nicely. Didn't feel too tight at all. It hits just above the knee on me so a decent length, which is something I find hard to get at my height.
The only downside is the layered material over the bust is quite thin so you must have the correct undies on otherwise they *might* be noticeable.
All in all I love this dress! Am eyeing up the other colours already.

Purchased both of the above from a very cool lady by the name of Elisabeth Hamilton over the weekend. She hand makes everything herself and makes custom clothes by request. Fans of the Rockabilly style should check her out and support someone thats doing something thats imo pretty damn cool.0 -
Justifying my spending today as it is "Treat Yourself Thursday"
All from ASOS, not sure of prices I think the bag was 50% off, the purse and coat 20% off and I paid full price for the scarf. I know it seems like I'm heading into winter but hey it's Ireland! 0 -

I don't get these 'investment' things like handbags etc.
I think it's justification to assure yourself it's okay to spend so much on something so small!
For me, that's 2 months rent but everyone's priorities are different I guess :-)
It is lovely!
I forgot this isn't a 'chat' thread so here's my purchase contribution!!
Sportsworld €30
New Look €110 -

I bought this Closet dress from ASOS for my upcoming engagement party:
I've just tried it on and I'm not sure about it
. It's very flattering from the waist down, but there's weird strap thingies on the shoulders that aren't obvious from the picture at all and make the sleeves look really weird. They're the type designed to hold up sleeves at different lengths, but they're only decorative so they're useless . The bust area is also swimming on me, despite me having a large bust. I might cut off the shoulder things and pin the bust in and see how it looks then.
It's really disappointing though because it's so pretty!0 -
Was Stateside for the last few weeks and picked up tons. Pick of the bunch shown below:
To hold my new iPhone 5S
These were reduced from something like $180 to $35 in Macy's
This dress looks nicer in person and was reduced to $25
And now I'm flat broke. Worth it though!0 -
