Thanks for the replies- I have ordered the silver Superga's £40 with White company discount code.

Love those sandals Amber and those trainers Dancergirl, such a shame they grey are out of stock. Have you tried House of Fraser, ours does Mint Velvet now!

PrimalLass · 08/06/2016 10:31

I ordered two more pairs of Saltwater sandals from Toast last night, as some colours were reduced to £41. I can't keep both (gold and yellow). And a dress that I hope is much longer on me.

Love the dress primal

ARichVernacular · 08/06/2016 10:57

Dammit Dancergirl I really like those trainers in the snake print too (which they have), but can't justify buying any more bloody trainers after deciding to keep the Vans I bought last month which cut my feet to ribbons Angry

Dancergirl · 08/06/2016 12:53

Sorry rich Blush can't you take the Vans back and claim they are faulty??

EnidButton · 08/06/2016 13:44

Damnit I really wanted those MV grey trainers too but was hanging on for some reason. Sad I always seem to do that.

Dancergirl · 08/06/2016 13:47

enid House of Fraser have them but only in a size 3. I've ordered a pair, I am normally a 4 but they might come up big.

Think Phase Eight do something similar.

EnidButton · 08/06/2016 13:53

Dancer Too small for me I'm afraid. Thank you though. I'll have a look on phase eight.

SwedishEdith · 08/06/2016 16:25

I tried on that Sainsbury's red dress - great colour (for me) but the skirt was too bulky - I looked pregnant. The yellow striped top looked better in RL (but not a good colour for me).

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 08/06/2016 17:32

I like the silver but I find that Superga look rather wide and toddler-ish. Prefer Converse, on me anyway.

I'm thinking of getting this in black and possibly in the pale pink - more useful and versatile than stripy yellow!

I also like these.

taybert · 08/06/2016 17:51

Like the Hobbs sandals.

KanyesVest · 08/06/2016 18:46

Hobbs sandals are lovely. Possible Mint Velvet alternative? I have a pair, love em.

deutschland83 · 08/06/2016 19:53

Again Ambers amazing taste shines through.

I Star those sandals but bugger all places to wear them.

I miss your blog Amber.

the rest of us sulk

I'm sulking because I saw a woman today wearing jeans and a t-shirt and she looked immaculate and just summery. Perfectly tanned, toned and pedicured. Never felt so pasty and wobbly in my life. Sad I'm just not built for summer dressing. Slim enough but too Irish.

deutschland83 · 08/06/2016 23:37

Love you Jack GrinGrin

PrimalLass · 09/06/2016 13:09

I've bought too much and have that guilty feeling. I must send most of it back tomorrow.

I quite like the La Redoute linen tees. I'm keeping them in black and white but the navy was enormous for some reason.

I ordered two dresses from Hush but the sizing is ludicrous. I'm a 12-14 and the 12 looks more like a size 18.

AdoraKiora · 09/06/2016 16:24

I like that dress, Primal. Where is it from? Great holiday dress!

Trying to wear my summer buys this week. Have officially got my legs out at work - every day this week Grin

I wore my Boden ruched stripy skirt today for the first time (with a Boden ruched navy top Grin) - got lots of compliments at work. Really nice, flattering fit.

Also got compliments yesterday for this palm print skirt. Very light, stretchy and comfy (and forgiving around the tum!). Wore it with a black sleeveless ruched top from Boden, but its extremely boobalicious and needed a bra top underneath to cover cleavage for work Blush.

Colleague has got some gorgeous light grey and white patterns summery work trousers from Michael Kors that I am coveting, but can't find them online and am broke until pay day anyway, so...ho hum...

AmberNectarine · 09/06/2016 16:53

Glad you all like them because I ordered them. Also bought this last week, so that's my summer accessories all sorted!

thanks deutschland, I miss it too but I just don't have the time!

Statelychangers · 09/06/2016 17:24

Have been in love with these for months and they just came into stock this week - £££ but so gorgeous I couldn't stop myself.

It's surprisingly flattering even with my generous chest.

AdoraKiora · 09/06/2016 19:20

I've got that Whistles top, Stately

It is flattering Grin

Floisme · 09/06/2016 19:43

Whistles have a sale on.

I am screwed.

Nearlyadoctor · 09/06/2016 20:18

My silver Superga's arrived - love, love, love them.

Also Tara dress from Hush, very flattering in the midnight blue, not so keen on the stripes version so that's going back. Grey Hush sweatshirt with writing on also great. I wasn't as keen on the ruched skirt in azure/ blue although liked the matching t shirt but both going back I think!

PrimalLass · 09/06/2016 20:34

I like that dress, Primal. Where is it from? Great holiday dress!

The stripey one? It's from Toast. Will report back.
