Hush A/W 18 - the one where Hush no longer wants to be our friend.....

[Nearlyadoctor]

New thread Hushita’s...

I’d try seasalt for a raincoat, Each. Not sure if their sale is still on, they had great bargains.

ooh off to Menorca aren't you cherries?

I'm well jel! We had such a fab time..seems like ages ago now though

What do u honestly think it says waterproof on the label I’m in peacocks also do you like the black jacket and £12 jeans

@ilovecherries that coat looks almost identical. It really suits you.
@DavetheCat2001 the LK B coat is cool... agree sleeves are a bit long, it's also maybe just a tiny bit big on you? Lovely though.

@EachandEveryone I think the blazer, jeans and top outfit looks fantastic on you. All of it is very flattering on your figure.
The raincoat looks good too.. very Joulesesque. I have a similar one in Mustard from NewLook.

Just popping in to say ‘Hi’

Does anyone know if there is much of a difference between size small and extra small in the oversized tops?

I REALLY do not want to exchange if there is a hint of a chance of the smaller size being stretched across my ample behind! But the size small seems very big and especially long. Has anyone compared the two sizes?

@EachandEveryone worth a trip to JL on Oxford Street to see if they have any reduced SeaSalt raincoats. Also, if you are in the area there is a great little boutique called Mallini on St Christopher's Place just down the road - they have some really nice well curated stock and the older sales assistant is really honest about whether or not something suits you.

I'm not too worried about the reflection thanks, that version is slightly more flattering

Thank you all, but it really is alot too small. What you can't tell is the waistband is actually sitting on my ribs so a bigger size would be looser but still not fit iyswim.

Found the thread
Thought Id lost you all. Great pictures.
Like the coat @Dave. @each - love the outfits, they are very flattering.
I have to say I don't really like the new look coat @cherries and its because of the lapels. I just don't like lapels like that tbh.

Rain jackets, much nicer in the flesh. Pictures look a bit shiny. Only shower proof though!

A question for you all..

If you had to choose one favourite item of clothing that you own, what would it be?

It doesn't have to be HUSH either!

Oooh Dave that’s a hard one, wanders off too have think.

Oh that's so difficult. Need a little think and report back.

That didn't take long...My hush ankle boots. I adore them. I have had them a year and still love them. They are similar to the ankle boots on the website now but have a buckle instead of a chain. They also have the zips.

An old leather jacket that I bought in a flea market twenty years ago. When I put it on, I instantly feel cool. I am not cool.

Nice!

I have a couple of 360 cashmere jumpers that I love..oh and I think my new leopard coat is up there too at the moment!

Oh, Dave, that’s hard! Opens wardrobe. Looks inside. Loves everything :). I think it probably will change with season. At the moment, my leopard maxi. In the winter it’s probably cashmere.

@Aworldofmyown Does that photo represent the colour of the Yasmin dress accurately? The green on the website looks clearer and deeper but if it's more like it is in your photo then it won't suit me at all.

Jeans I think but I also have some really lovely jackets &, shoes I love love all of my shoes, but I also have the beautiful silk dress & coat I wore for dd’s wedding, this is too hard 🤔

@DavetheCat2001 at the moment my star frayed boyfriend jeans. Have worn them to death this summer.
After that probably a black fitted trench coat that I bought in 2005(!). Still going strong and it just goes with absolutely everything I own.
Hard to narrow it down though.. have so many things I love but the fact I've held on to this coat for 13 years goes to show how much I love it!
Your Boden coat is gorgeous. You will have that for years, it's a classic and won't ever go out of fashion.

Hi there, so reports on the latest haul..

Boat neck cashmere ..(in the sale from JL and they have them still in ) These are the L but they are not that big as you can see. Oh! love them both so, but they are £75 each in the sale ..! But keeping just adore, adore and these are classics . The Rose Tan is thinner than the black one and not really a deep-of-winter weight, but its such a gorgeous colour , like a pink cloud on a sunset horizon..!

Ziggy Jumper . What a disappointment!!! The fabric is just yuck, not really a knit and not really a sweat , is going back but glad I scratched that itch , because in the same parcel was yet another (my 3rd!!) pair of XS black and white £15 sale Amies which are currently being dyed blue ..

Also Blue Sunstone pendant . Also a total disappointment . The chain is too thin I think, and a bit too long. Also its a a bit of a 'brassy' colour rather than a nice gold. But worse - the stone on mine arrived chipped on two edges. All round not good then.

I really hope this AW18 collection isn't the one where I stop being friends with Hush , but so far, I have sent back more of the collection than I have kept..

Re: Dye Experiment3 ( which is currently in progress and I am having such fun with )... Now you may think I am totally mad here , but although I liked the M&S leopard leggings, I thought they would look better more blue ( esp given that I am keeping the Hush leopard ones). So.. I have popped them in the dye wash also! it wont change the colour that much as they are already quite dark , but we shall see..

But , Take Note M&S leopard legging owners, LOOK When I wet them before they even went in the machine (just in cold water ) lots of the original dye came out .. so make sure you wash them separately before you put them in with anything else!

Here are my expensive jumpers

oh sorry for miserable face photo! ..I thought I had edited that out..

Thanks for the tip of re leggings @Laska5772.
The jumpers are lovely. And thank you for your review of Ziggy jumper, I had my eye on it but not going to bother now.
Can you remind me where you got your star pendant from? I think you said Lizzie Lane is that right?
Love the pink jumper with the Santana skirt btw.

That black boatneck is lovely Laska. I think that’s my favourite of your outfits to date.

Really like the pink jumper on you Laska

So you recommend the Hush leopard leggings? I must have missed that you had those.

I'm quite tempted.

Ella it was this one but the gold one with silver chin - which I have- is out of stock.They still have the silver though and one of these multi star ones
