H+M did good today

Some slim chino style trousers for me in a bluey grey soft material, roll up nicely to just above ankle length without sticking to your calf (Logg at H+M)

A blue/white micro check soft dress for me hols. Just above knee length so not too short, dead comfy to throw over a bikini or to travel in and will be cool in hot weather but not too "hols" that I couldn't wear it at home. Looks great with plimsolls or Birkies (Logg again...I love Logg for casual stuff in comfy cotton materials)

Some denim roll up shorts for DS (14)

Chinos sound like ones I've just got by mail order, only I think I could go down a size so will go in store and see. Very soft and lovely colour. Dress is my kind of thing too - will see if that's there too. If you order online you can opt to pay only if you keep the goods. But you do have to pay for postage

AnyFucker · 14/05/2014 21:37

slim fit chinos (they look lighter in RL)

Nice - they both look v good. H&M can be great, sometimes.

glenthebattleostrich · 14/05/2014 21:49

Ooh I've been toying with getting that dress, just cross I can't find a discount code!

AnyFucker · 14/05/2014 21:50

Yes, a lot of it is tat. I like the casual stuff in Logg though.

AnyFucker · 14/05/2014 21:51

well, I paid 19.99 for it today instore Angry

AnyFucker · 14/05/2014 21:52

it's really comfy, glen

a definite warm weather thing though, and a bit see through when backlit

mostly for hols for me, and the rare hot days in UK (but not dressy, definitely casual...?school run dress with a long cardie and plimsolls)

The chinos look esp nice, would they be good for those slim of hip and flat of arse AF? (ie a bit straight up and down)

AnyFucker · 14/05/2014 21:58

Yes, Panna, that is my shape too

The size is true though

That model wearing the chinos has a strange body o_O is it photoshopped, d'you reckon?

What am I on about. Of course it is.

littlegreengloworm · 14/05/2014 22:04

H&M is over an hour nd a half for me ... Grrrr.
They look gorgeous

Pannacotta · 14/05/2014 22:07

You can order on-line littlegreen, they often do free delivery if you sign up.
Agree about the weird pic for the chinos, not good at all.

FeelingIrie · 14/05/2014 22:11

AF, quick qu - would the dress be suitable for breastfeeding in? Eg easily hoiked down and hooked under the boob? Looks stretchy enough in the pics.

Thanks x

AnyFucker · 14/05/2014 22:11

They look a normal shape, on normal unphotoshopped people Smile

The turn ups (you don't have to, but I like to) don't stick to your legs when you move around. this is most unusual, I have found (and I am not a wide-calved person)

OP posts:
AnyFucker · 14/05/2014 22:12

Yes, Irie, very soft and stretchy. Ideal in fact as the other boob would stay encased.

littlegreengloworm · 14/05/2014 22:14

panna I ordered before but it was really slow six weeks or something ? I love the homewares too. Really great stuff.

I don't know was it a one off but I saw threads on here too. Has delivery time improved ?

I would love some stretchy trousers for changing into when I come home

Hmmm... Sunday might be a nice day ?? :)

BumpKitty · 14/05/2014 22:20

Very nice trousers but I am neither slim of hip or flat of arse. Just posting to say delivery was really slow for me too - around 3 weeks and that was within the last month, they should sort it out as I would shop with them more if it was a bit speedier.

Pannacotta · 14/05/2014 22:22

Delivery varies IME, can be slow can be quite quick, worth a try maybe at those prices and with a recommendation!

ShotgunNotDoingThePans · 14/05/2014 22:23

Nice. They did good for me yesterday; got this is two colours - navy and dark cream - but online they have it in white and grey. Might try the grey actually. Great over a t-shirt in this weather, or cool evenings on hols I hope.

Sleepyfergus · 14/05/2014 22:25

Delivery times are still horrific from recent experience. The stuff comes from Sweden rather than a sub warehouse in the UK but it must go via the moon as it was about a month to get a jacket I ordered.

beakerandburette · 14/05/2014 22:27

I got a batman t-shirt and skinny jeans for a £5 in H & M today, love a bargain :)

mrgarybarlow · 14/05/2014 22:28

1304 gets you £5 off so more than postage and 1086 was 25% off one item but may have expired

Pannacotta · 14/05/2014 22:34

Thanks for the code mrg!

FeelingIrie · 14/05/2014 22:39

Thank you Any, think I shall purchase! x
