What have you bought recently?

Well those are not clothes but I did splurge on those two plates, they are handmade ceramic from Japan and absolutely stunning. There is something about having a few nice plates that makes me even more aware and mindful about eating. I don’t know if any of you can relate but for me it is important to really sit down, be present and appreciate the moment and apparently a nice plate like this always helps me. I got 18cm bowl and 21cm plate

The Ann Demeulemeester sandals I ordered off depop just came in the mail today and I’m obsessed with them! I love Ann D so i’m so excited to finally have something from her. The seller originally listed them at $150 but I was able to snag them for $90

This jacket by Ann Sofie Madsen which I have been on the look out for so long.
A brand I was a big admirer of but unfortunately is out of business/very inconsistent at the moment. I haven't been so happy about a purchase in years, as I really wanted this jacket 2 years ago, missed my chance and never was able to find it again until now

Been contemplating these for quite sometime now but decided to finally treat myself, pretty good deal.

Rick Owens x Champion Trackpants + T-shirt - I've been living in Rick Owens x Champion stuff since it's been released first.

I went on a bit of a spree this week, and so I bought some lovely things

From & Other Stories:

You can actually tighten the belt area to make it more flare, it’s so pretty and fluffy!

From Demonias:

From Zara:

They size veeery big so it definitely didn’t look like that on me but it’s pretty nonetheless!

These are all things I bought over the last month and I thought I’d share

This sheer top embroidered with flowers and leaves:

I have no idea how I’m gonna style this one yet but it’s so beautiful and flowy!

Some claw clips:

This pair of black jeans with little embroidered roses:

These jeans are adorable in theory but they’re quite short on me (I’m 5’11”) so I might return them.

And then a fun one for my friend's birthday:

I’m very excited to give this one to him He came out publicly a couple of weeks ago and he has a great sense of humor so I thought he would appreciate it

 

[angel baby]

Everything is from New Yorker:

I'm so excited to wear these shorts!

Is anyone familiar with By Far shoe’s sizing? I only ever ordered bags from them, but they have an amazing sale online and I just bought a pair of my dream mules. One problem: they’re a size too big from what I usually wear (I’m a size 5 (35 eu) and these are a 5.5 (36 eu) I want them to fit me so desperately lol. Any advice or trick I can use if they fit me big?

I hate it when that happens. I like to add a gel liner so it makes it feel tighter and it supports your feet more. If it is still too big, I'd line the inner top with cloth medicine tape as needed.

I went on a bit of a workout clothing spree this week - I've wanted pretty leggings and fitted tops for ages and wouldn't dream of wearing them until I lost enough weight. I've still got a way to go but I'm going to enjoy them while they fit!

 

[delicateeuphoria]

Went on a bit of a lockdown-induced retail therapy binge on TheRealReal and bought these:

Vivienne Westwood

Dolce & Gabbana

Blumarine (will need to get it altered since it's a 26" waist, 35" hip but it was only $15 and I couldn't resist)

Isabel Marant

Alexander Wang

I recently bought this gorgeous floaty black star-print dress from the Kooples; I'm a sucker for anything made of really light fabric and I love that you can take the lining out to make it totally sheer. I've also been obsessed with the Kooples ever since I read some junky UK tabloid news story about a woman who was in one of their stores and was told she wasn't 'rock chick skinny' enough to wear their clothes I love a classy European brand with their own sizing system which keeps their clothes somewhat exclusive...

Did a bit of an online shopping spree and wanted to share

Got 2 dresses for 2 upcoming events I'm going to by the end of August (pink one is Zara, lilac one is a small Greek brand called Forever Young) :

My other buys are all dance practice /gym related (actually more psyched about those)
Sports bra, crop top and leggings are ASOS, sneakers are from a local sports store:

 

[insipidiana]

I recently impulse-bought this dress (but in pink) while in Boston. All I need now is an excuse to show it off! It's such a beautiful hand-made dress, I love it so much, I occasionally just wear it around the house just to look at myself.

 

[lovelie]

I really enjoy buying clothes, but lately I've been feeling guilty about it after realising just how fast the fashion cycle seems to be going. Every shopping outing felt unethical to me, and stopped bringing the comfort it once did.

However, I'm having my first post-covid event — a wedding! Yay — and had to find a dress, as most of my pre pandemic clothes are a bit loose. I ended up buying a green dress from Zara that looks very flattering.

 

[minanai]

I'm in need of a new work bag, and its almost my birthday so I decided to buy myself a Telfar!

 

[jasminepearl]

I recently bought myself this Pleats Please top to commemorate starting work!

I'd really recommend it to anyone on here. I was eyeing it for quite a while, and I was finally pushed over the edge because there were just so many comments saying that nothing from the brand suits "real women with curves." Can confirm that this top (and almost all clothes) would suit skinnies only. In fact, I think the sizing is based entirely on height rather than weight.

 

[SaintLaurentSkinny]

New YSL bag, Prada sunnies, and a Sir the Label dress. (Well technically I got the dress for free but whatever)

 

[klyuchitsa]

Decided to treat myself to a Reformation dress in celebration of starting a new job! This was the first time I’ve ever purchased from the brand and I’m really pleased with the dress. The only downside is it fits a little loosely, so I may end up getting it altered (particularly shortening the sleeves to mid-length, and cinching the waist in a bit more)
