I've been very restrained this month. I had a charity shop rummage at the beginning of the month with Sophie and Kezzie and usually I buy rather a lot! This time around I purchased this orange jumper for £2.50. That's it. (I say that's it. That's it on the clothes front, I did buy books, I can't go charity shopping and buy nothing...
