The S I think Never.. You'll want to wear things under it later on (Mrs Practicality talking , but I like jumpers a bit loose ) .. How about trying it on with jeans and see what you r think looks best with those?

dontcallmelen · 02/08/2018 20:11

Thanks Nearly, even though they are quite expensive must admit I’m tempted, says she who only five minutes ago was putting a stop to the spending.

Laska5772 · 02/08/2018 20:11

Nearly ! sorry ..

tshirtsuntan · 02/08/2018 20:15

I recently bought a "Tara" dress which I love- grey jersey, short sleeves, v-neck- I would love a black version with long sleeves for my work Christmas party, do they have one in black every autumn/winter?

Nearlyadoctor · 02/08/2018 20:16

Thanks ladies, I was definitely thinking the small but DH made me question myself.
Going to sit down and go through all the sale items just in case I’ve missed something I can’t live without. Receiving one parcel has given me the bug again - but must keep saving for the new house!

PorpoisefullyObtuse · 02/08/2018 20:18

Just caught up from last night. Have so many comments to make. I need a notebook to remember them! It’s been a long day. Can’t wait to get the kids in bed. Going to have a slight clear out of wardrobe and possibly a very small gin.

Laska5772 · 02/08/2018 20:26

.. Blimey Its been so long since I played any music... Id forgotten what those big white things collecting dust on my desk were!.. I'd also bought posh speakers as well as a Cd drive after the music system bust ! .Grin

Now loving the Santana..

Ellapaella · 02/08/2018 20:30

Looks lovely Nearly - I also think the small is better on you. Will also look good with boyfriend or cropped jeans I think. Hoping mine will arrive tomorrow.

ooh look we are over 900 posts already ! Chatty Husistas! Grin

neveradullmoment99 · 02/08/2018 20:57

Its always a bit of a sale that starts the chatting of the husheetas.and enabling.
Just wait until AW18 gets a grip!!!

Laska5772 · 02/08/2018 21:09

here's something v cheap (in the anemone) no ones talked about yet ..

Laska5772 · 02/08/2018 21:10

.. I was looking for what i thought was a navy shirt (shown with the Brayebrooks) and discovered it was a jumpsuit..

neveradullmoment99 · 02/08/2018 21:14

I had this jumpsuit. Not in the red but black. I never wore it as I felt too self-conscious but would wear it now. Not sure I would be brave in the read though. Fantastic price. Would you get it?

Laska5772 · 02/08/2018 21:19

no..I had a jumpsuit once.. It was about 1980 I think , I can only remember having to get undressed to do a pee in a freezing 'outside 'pub loo once ..That was It !

neveradullmoment99 · 02/08/2018 21:23
Grin I have the floral one that I wore to a wedding. Haven't really had the opportunity to wear again and I keep forgetting I have it. It will probably go in the ebay pile later on [ to give me some spends for AW!!!]
user1487671808 · 02/08/2018 21:23

I made the mistake of catching up on this thread earlier (am on holiday) and whilst relaxing in the sun seem to have ordered a Caro top, striped Amies and a denim mini skirt just because it was reduced to a tenner! Trying to resist the star jeans at £25 an the yellow slogan top.

neveradullmoment99 · 02/08/2018 21:24

I actually really like a jumpsuit and suited that one. just felt a bit of an idiot in it. I would probably wear it now more but I am not fussed for the red. The navy is nice.

neveradullmoment99 · 02/08/2018 21:25

Yes, its far too tempting user

Laska5772 · 02/08/2018 21:27

Seriously user1478, if they have the are star jeans in your size just buy them ..

..They are so fab! (This is not 'enabling' ,.its just recommending a brilliant bargain... everyone here who has them will agree with me .).

PorpoisefullyObtuse · 02/08/2018 21:28

Ok. I’m now lounging with a small gin in a large glass with loads of raspberries in it and a small bowl of saltine crackers. It’s been a long old day and I blooming well deserve it as no hush has arrived.

I’ve been back over the thread and genuinely had to make notes - you lot are very chatty! I’ve got my headphones in one ear and am listening to smooth by Santana - sexiest song ever!

@the only - I love the Kensington dress on you. It looks so chic and a bit funky. Your figure looks absolutely perfect in it too. I’m the wrong colouring or I’d have it!

@Soyyo i used amies for travel. Warm enough for plane, light enough when I got there and didn’t feel at all rumpled which, travelling with my children, is a miracle.

@IloveCherries - have a look at Tommy Hilfiger puffa coats. They are a very flat puff (but not too small if that’s makes sense). I have two. One about 6 years old and one about 3 and both are in great nick. Really cosy but not over hot. Black trainers have a look at Nike Zeros. They look ugly as all hell off your foot but good on.

@laska I can’t wait for nude brayebrooks having seen yours. So nice!

Talisan - I have this mint velvet t.

www.houseoffraser.co.uk/women/mint-velvet-ooh-la-la-navy-striped-tee/d923801.pd#298306468

It looks a similar shape to me - I found it true to size but I’m quite narrow in shoulders and not huge of Nork. I randomly threw it on with my harems btw and it sat beautifully- not right colour for them but fancy something same shape.

@Never. Try looking for chuck socks b

PorpoisefullyObtuse · 02/08/2018 21:35

Damn posted before I was finished. Designed to be invisible under converse but quite thick to stop itch.

@Remus I’ve been googling nude fishnets. Can’t wait to get some. I see so many possibilities.

On the Mint Velvet trousers I would say true to size if not slightly on the small side - I’m a definite 10 and wear a ten in them but they are unforgiving if I put on even a few pounds. They are my testing trousers if I want to see if I’ve put on weight. I’m just under 5ft 6 and find them a touch short - I’m long in leg and short of body but still...

@Nearly I would have said the XS but would worry about shrinkage...

@Tshirt - Tara is usually out in a few colour ways and necklines every year but not necessarily black. Maybe very dark grey.

neveradullmoment99 · 02/08/2018 21:38

Great socks porpoise Thanks for that. Love the pattern of yours.

neveradullmoment99 · 02/08/2018 21:39

What arrivals are you waiting on ?

Laska5772 · 02/08/2018 21:39

The Frayed star jeans ..I meant.user1478 .. The embroidered star ones everyone is posting today are also nice.. ( true, I returned mine but for other reasons , .. I have too many similar )

neveradullmoment99 · 02/08/2018 21:42

They are both great Laska Hopefully the dark blue ones will not disappoint. No secret orders tonight then? Im actually getting fed up receiving parcels and also returning. Think its time for a rest for now for me. I have plenty.
