Hush leather wrap skirt

[Greengardenpixie]

Does anyone have it?
Is it really short and revealing?
Really like it but it looks quite short. That really puts me off. Just wondered what it was like in real life?

[Greengardenpixie]

They have it here in a 10 and a 12. Mango is tiny!

Green they will reduce again later , I've had some really good bargains from them previously .. but i think ive bought all I wanted from them this season already ..
I wasnt too impressed with their offer this Autumn/ winter ( so good for the bank balance then!) , but I did get the ruched skirt in burgundy and the burgundy Claire jumper ( both now in the sale ) but for full price before Christmas ( both fab and my Birthday present to myself!).
apart fromthe parka going back, I also bought another pair of their long harem trousers in charcoal in the pre-sale at 20% discount as they are fab (and are never in the sale).

[Greengardenpixie]

I have never bought harem trousers. Not sure how i would look in them tbh. I have seen them on various blogs and they look good on others. Might give them a whirl at some point.
I was very tempted by their boucle skirt tbh. The colours are a bit shit though. I fancied the black and white.
Its a lovely outfit that you bought laska :) Love the jumper and the skirt.

[Greengardenpixie]

well i was very successful with my purchases!
Skinny coated biker jeans - perfect :)
Laura dress - a little neat on the sleeves but I am losing weight so perfect :)
Black yeti cardi - would have liked it a little longer but lovely also :)
Managed to bag the boucle skirt in black and white this morning :)
Off to return my leather wrap skirt at P.O. and thats me done!
All my spends are done now. No more looking.

I have my pyjamas. Lovely and soft but weirdo sizing. I am a fairly normal size 12 and the small feels big

[mrslebon]

Oh thanks for the Mango tip @greengardenpixie! Might give the 10 a whirl!

[mrslebon]

ooo, another one for the list: www.esprit.co.uk/soft-nappa-leather-mini-skirt-085EO1D004_001?camp=UK_ES_MC_NL_60_05222&wt_cc1=banner_D2&linkid=9109

[Greengardenpixie]

That is s gorgeous one! Love it actually. However i have spent so much so will have to wait until pay day. Have your ordered any MrsLebon?

[mrslebon]

I'm returning the Hush one and will probs order the Mango one next!

[Greengardenpixie]

I think the mango one looks really nice. Good choice
My boucle mini came today. Its nice. Probably could have got a small though but at least it isnt really overly clingy. Its great cause you can make it longer :)

[Thingsthatmakeugoummmm]

Did you get medium boulle mini Greengardenpixie? I really want one but was worried it would be too short!

[mrslebon]

Found the Mango one on ASOS for £41.50 - result!

[Greengardenpixie]

thingsthatmakeyougo, yes i did. Its really nice. Its slightly generous on me. The thing is though you can wear it lower on the hips as it is just a simple tube. The lenght can be adjusted. However, if you are really tall then it may not work. I am 5ft 5.

[Greengardenpixie]

Geat result mrslebon. Tell us what its like when it arrives!

[Bbqsareoverrated]

Aaagh, I've been reading this thread and all of your not so positive comments about the Hush sale and it had stopped me making any spontaneous purchases I don't need. But they've just sent the damn 70% email and I got carried away and bought six things I don't need and would never have bought at full price!! I didn't know there was a sales return charge too so that's annoying as I'm sure some won't fit. The pyjamas look v good value now though, at £15.
Note to self - must listen to Mumsnet people more in future.

[Greengardenpixie]

I got free returns with all my purchases. Was that a mistake?

[Bbqsareoverrated]

Hmmm, not sure then - it was mentioned earlier on this thread.
I am very envious of your Laura dress and quite tempted! Must not must not...

[Greengardenpixie]

Well i ordered about 2 lots of things and it came with free returns.

[Bbqsareoverrated]

Great, thanks - thought that was normal for them..

[mrslebon]

So the Mango skirt arrived. I ordered a 36 thinking that was a 10, but it's an 8 and is teeny! So back it goes to ASOS. I've ordered what I hope is a 10 from John Lewis (more expensive, but hey) so should have it by Saturday. It's lovely quality and a much more decent length, unlike the Hush one. I have high hopes!

[Greengardenpixie]

Ooooh it looks a gorgeous skirt too. Hope the 10 fits you beautifully. Something to look forward too post birth! :)

[mrslebon]

Yay - success! The Mango skirt is just right. Obviously at 32 weeks pregnant, I can't try it on properly but I've measured it against my other skirts and it's bang on. Good length, lovely quality and nice wrap detail. Definitely one to look forward to wearing post-birth! Thanks for all your help greengardenpixie - I wouldn't have found it without you!

[Greengardenpixie]

So pleased to have helped :) Enjoy it and your lovely new bundle when he/she comes!!!
