Starting here! Hello all

Although still not 'cheap'.

Wearing the fab Tori Anne (buy it! buy it ! buy it!) With red salties and Boden cropped red summer cardi to office today .. even if I do say so myself , it looks fab !!

Sounds lovely laska. Other order arrived. So bargaineous grecian diamond top. Keep. The rest is being returned. Love the light little print dress. Gorgeous but way too thin ti be practical. I have it in here with a strapless bra and a slip. Ignore the mess. Washing stuff and sorting from hols. Love the print. Its just not practical. Black portobelli is ok. Prefer white and the other black cut out one. Returning. Chambray skirt. I dont love it. Gorgeous material but i feel the length is no good for me. So thats that. Retuning mostly all of it.

Only posting a pic of the dress for others to see in RL if anyone is interested.

Its a 12 and fits me true to size. I always need to watch straight cut dresses because of my pear shape.

It also looks quite long on me compared to the model but its not as long as the picture. Its the photograph and angle.

Love the contrast of the red @laska with the Tori dress. I am not buying any more for now and although its a lovely dress, Its not my style at all.

Oh, I ordered the red Kellifray yesterday, hoping it comes tomorrow. Well, actually ordered two sizes so hope it comes quickly and I can get one sent back quickly as well.

I also have a Whistles trench coat on the way. £200 reduced to £75 and all of last years winter stuff is falling off me, so thought I’d take a punt.

what size seasalt macs have you ordered cherries?. . Ive gone for 12. I like the kellifray but not sure as much as the porthchapel

@neveradullmoment that dress is lovely on you, pretty colour.

Ah posted twice.. Like the dress on you never hope the black top is good in the 8. That Emilie bag is nice. Not for me though. I have good work bag. blue merino scarf is now down to 12 ! ( dont need another scarf! ) also noticed a grey diamond T v cheap.. ive not ordered any more though..

Thanks @Melen. I am kind of pinning my hopes on the navy star dress which I have ordered as it will be more useful for me. I could probably even get away with a little navy tee under it. If it doesn't suit, I may re-order the dress pictured but it really is very thin. Was thinking it would have looked good with my crops. Its ok but still fairly thin and see through. I really cant afford to keep both. I have also decided to return a few things that I though I was definitely keeping because I feel its all adding up. Feeling like a 'good girl'.

and tbh, I will never have enough summer left to wear it all

I have 3 hush parcels to post back today.

How has everyone got on with their caro tops? Pics please!!!
So in all, all I have kept so far is:
The custard vest top
The leopard maxi.
The caro top
Have even decided to return the diamond Grecian top. Its a good price but I have loads of them already and it isn't that special colourwise.
Feeling very
Its not a symbol I use a lot!!!

My animal print skirt arrived, it is definitely different to the original batch but I still like it.

I have also been stalking the beaded LOVE clutch and it went in the sale today!!!! I'm very excited

Ha ha never I have 2 boxes to go back.. they know me and ny Hush boxes well int the post office now ..I
I Saw that navy star dress in JL yesterday.. (not in my size) Looked nice..

I've just gone a bit mad on the hush stuff in the sale in John Lewis. 2 x striped joggers and 3 jumpers! Eeekkkk!

laska, I ordered a 12 and a 14. I love the parka but wanted a happy colour and think the citron will be to yellow for me.

@neveradullmoment, my Caro & Macy tops on the way will post pics when I get them, ahh didn’t realise that dress was so thin starts to get a bit silly when you have to think about how it can be made wearable.
You are indeed being very sensible if you are sending back more, than you are keeping, I have decided unless the tops I have ordered are really look good they are going back.
I really need to rein in the spending, especially as probably only a few weeks of summer left & then will be desperate for some warmer stuff.

I don’t know if it’s because the weather has turned really cold in Scotland, but I’m suddenly a bit bored by summer clothes. Feel I’ve been looking at the same things for months. Looking forward to my holidays obviously, and will enjoy wearing my nice things then, but have lost the urge to buy more. On the other hand, very excited about my new coats (and as I came home without my gortex, it’s behinning to feel essential!)

Just been out for lunch .really warm and sunny here. Def much warmer than BBC is suggesting it us .. cardi off and glad I wearing my dress in this hot office..

...so still loving my summer togs
