inSo yeah I know, I said that one of the “good things” about lockdown and, in my case, continuing to shelter, was that I didn’t have to spend money on new summer clothes or sandals this year (and this may continue into the winter). BUT, I still need comfy clothes to wear around the house, since that is mostly where I am. And so I’ve found a few things online (and on sale!), mostly at M&S. A couple of cotton summer nightgowns, knickers… and these totally comfortable crop top bras. I was actually looking for bralettes but they don’t seem to make them in my size, so for at-home wearing these are perfect. Just got them today and well, there’s no going back. I mean, I wouldn’t be able to wear them out but I should have been buying these years ago.
What covid comfort stuff have you been buying?

So as of last Monday we are in Phase 2 in Andalucía (Madrid and Catalunya are catching up and are on Phase 1). This means that more public spaces are opening, bars and restaurants have a bit more flexibility, non-essential shops and department stores are also allowed to open, and some restrictions are lifted for general circulation around town and within the province. All of course with the required “social distancing” measures, and all kinds of disinfecting, cleaning, etc going on. Ah, and masks have been mandatory since last weekend. If all goes well, Phase 3 is meant to start on June 8th.
What could go wrong? Well, plenty. I still see (from my balcony) too many people not wearing masks, walking too close to others, basically not giving a shit. So I am personally still in Phase 0, only going out for essential shopping and taking out the rubbish, otherwise I am staying home and staying safe. And walking on my roof (view from rooftop in photo above).

So I went Christmas, Reyes Magos and Birthday shopping today… all for me! I had suddenly run out of both my Clinique Elixir perfume and Clinique moisturizer – eek! – and had to re-stock. While I was at it I also got a travel-sized tube of the moisturizer, and would have also bought a smaller perfume for travelling (I’m out of that too), but they were sold out of the latter. Anyhow, a good haul and all was on sale. Yay. 🙂

So OMG imagine my surprise when I came across THIS in Málaga last week! Apparently it’s been there for a year, but I haven’t been in town since last December so it’s not surprising I missed it. I had just received an online knickers & tights order so could only browse here, but will remember this for future visits. It’s so much nicer to see and touch things before you buy them.
