NOTE: Please do not post if you somehow hate consumerism that's pretty evident in the thread already no one likes a killjoy. I just want people to post what they bought because its fun to show and tell + spreading the joy.
Probably not going to catch on but it would be cool if fellow LB members here posted photos (more likely that would be nice, but words are welcome too lol) of what recent things they bought currently. Would love to know what you bought recently!
You can post anything from 50% sales, boxing day sales, even full price items. Its pretty straightforward. If you also have a blog post that you made of your purchases you're definitely welcome to post it here so there's extra joy being spread around.
DISCLAIMER: Please only post photos of what you bought recently, describe them or link a blog post where you showcase other photos + description of what you bought. Maybe even a video haul, everyone enjoys that too.
Nothing else to be discussed except maybe asking how much did that person buy it for if not provided, complement them or talk about the sales in general. You know the usual what's size did you get your shoes that sort of stuff. If you want to contact or have a chat with them then pm or comment on their LB profile if its just general talk + no random blog links (that isn't related to showing stuff you bought recently) because that's just being blatantly rude and they will be deleted. Thanks.
Anyway I'll start off with me getting some purchases from the Boxing day sales. Here's some photos of what stuff I got:
New Look gold double cross ring & skull ring (the cross ring was full price but I got 10% off it so that was cool. I wanted one for the longest time anyway)
River Island neon beanie
Zara green basic long sleeved tee
River Island canvas boots
Other stuff I bought I made a blog post about it:

Awesome! That's a steal! I like how the USA flag shorts are styled and the print isn't too much like the other flag shorts I've seen around. What a versatile piece!
Did you get any more stuff or that's all for now? Thanks for posting here though. Let's keep the happy vibes going and post more purchases! :D

Oh cool, I like your diy t-shirt! I find it interesting that you frayed the top as well!
That's amazing, usually footwear these days are just too damn high in prices. Good find! What do they look like?

Oh wow! You have to post a photo here sometime. I really like the baroque trend and its definitely going to stay for quite a while in my opinion. The price is bargainlicious too! Definitely a massive good find and at Office too!

I'm so jealous you have a Cambridge Satchel! What's the size of your one? Because I'm saving up for that type of bag in the future also.
Cool, that's a good pick from your mom. A nice classic little black dress. That's really something when parents get your fashion taste/sense right, lol!

Mine's the 15" batchel and JUST ABOUT fits in everything I need for school, if you're only using yours for casual use though, I might recommend a 13-14" satchel (the batchel is only available in 15") as mine can feel a little massive when I take it out wit just my purse, phone and keys in! I got mine before the Google Chrome ad but since then the prices have increased, mine was £93 but now costs £113!
I would also suggest that you look in Zatchels, they do a similar thing but have more patterned bags if that's more your style :) xx

Oh I see. I'll only use mine for casual use though outside school so I might go with the 14 at least maybe it has a wee bit more space.
Erm can you explain to me on what you meant by the google chrome ad you mentioned? Ah yes I did hear about Zatchels but I still want to go with the Cambridge Satchels since I really like the leather finish better and I find the "logo" tab on the Zatchels pretty tacky.

There was a TV advert for the Google Chrome browser that showed the rise of the Cambridge Satchel Company, maybe it only aired in the UK?

Nope you're probably right, it definitely didn't air here. Its amazing though from one tiny desire to a popular & strong company. Thanks for sharing the video.

Ah no its okay, pretty good idea that you linked where you got it or what it looks like. That's fine.
How interesting your choice is for that vest. It has that country luxe vibe going on that reminds me of Barbour or Ralph Lauren green label. Will be looking forward in how you're going to style it in the future then! Good pick!
