@redtulip sainsburys have black leather biker jackets, when they have the 25% deal you can get for £75.00 I have one it’s lovely.

dontcallmelen · 29/08/2018 12:32

Posted too soon, the leggings/top combo looks lovely.

redtulip12 · 29/08/2018 12:34

Thanks @dontcallmelen I have it in the navy and love it but they didn't have my size last time I looked at the black one. Will have another look.

Inforthelonghaul · 29/08/2018 12:35

Wasn’t going to order it but the green wide top looks fab in every picture so far so I’m going to order it with the leopard print leggings. Also going to try the grey vneck but not sure I love the grey, would prefer if it was charcoal.

I still need some skinny jeans but no ones said anything about the Hush ones so maybe they’re not that great. Think I’ll hold off on those for a bit and wait for reviews. They are so much money I think for jeans but I love my frayed star ones loads that I want them to be lovely.

DavetheCat2001 · 29/08/2018 13:17

Caved and also ordered the leopard leggings and green wide top!

red I have the black brushed star tee and leopard skirt and intend to wear them together.

Theonlyoneiknow · 29/08/2018 13:26

Hi @Laska - is that a 20% off Daniel boots code valid on all items? Have been mulling over the gorgeous boots that @never has ...... :)

Laska5772 · 29/08/2018 13:45

I think so the only ill pm it to you.. not sure i want anything more but you are welcome to use it anyway

SoyYo · 29/08/2018 13:47

red and miss thank you for posting the pics, you’re both looking great in the leopard leggings and wide fit tops! I also like the dress on you red but it may not be that practical in a maxi length...

My Hush Brand Alley order has shipped so that was a pleasant surprise! I’ll let you know what I think of the cashmere jumpers on receipt.

melen I’ll have to investigate Sainsbury’s leather bikers then (I have many in my collection so don’t need any more but a red or navy blue would be a nice addition)

ella you’re being super sensible returning the parka. It did look great too, but understand the reasons. You can always change your mind again at sale time, last one they reduced all the parkas well under the £100 mark and many sizes left in stock.

dave i knew you’d cave in Wink I’m about to soon too!

info I have the Hush Holly skinnies they’re fine at sale price but not my best skinnies ever. never returned, I think they are lovely but we all tend to concur they’re too expensive so best to wait till sale time to try.

Huff adore the mid calf biker boots you linked to!

Hi to cherries rocking your Hush on hols.

I can’t remember when I joined the thread but remember lurking for a few months, i think it was late last year? Confused in any case by then I had been into Hush for a couple of years. This thread has helped me lots with suggestions on styling (never Flowers) and also avoiding mistakes. I don’t think I spend any more than I did before though, but it has moved my allegiances more I guess. I am very pushed for time with my work and don’t have energy/time to go shopping in RL often. I’ve always ordered online and returned lots and it tended to be the usual Hush, Boden, Hobbs, Uniglo, Zara, etc. I like that we can post links on whatever we find and love. You girls do an awful lot of leg work finding dupes and interesting accessories and honestly the thread helps me no end and saves a lot of internet browsing which I spend posting here instead! Grin

Plus for entertainment value and sisterly support I’ve never found a better MN thread, totally non judgemental, welcoming and inclusive. Long may it continue Smile

Nearlyadoctor · 29/08/2018 13:54

@Laska Boden scarf - really like it 😃

Laska5772 · 29/08/2018 13:56

Ok so back home .I picked up the 2nd pair of M&S leopard leggings and I am now dyeing them burgundy! ( yep there is no stopping me!) Grin

The plum M&S cardi i linked to above ( which had a couple of poor reviews ) I really liked but it comes up very big.. I have ordered the small and also in the grey as I liked that also .. its sort of 'matted shaggy dog' (sounds great eh?) but really cosy and I think will wear really well ,and work over an Ivy dress. Anyway not wool ( and not £140 Jigsaw quality - which of course is going to be a lot nicer) but nice , and at £35 each I think definitely worth it .

I also found a lovely vaguely animal print grey scarf in Tkmaxx for £5.99 ! .

Huffthepuff · 29/08/2018 14:03

Love the leggings and green top together @redtulip12

Ok so the Emmanuel has arrived. Not tried adding pics before so here goes. I really, really like it, but it does puff out at my widest area and make my hips look bigger. It's so wearable though! I'm sure it would be one a work staple. Great length.
Tried on the Yasmin again as I haven't sent it back yet Blush. Looking at these pics I'm wondering if it's actually a bit more flattering than the Emmanuel? Not as easy to thrown on for any occasion though I think.

Yasmin with jacket. I absolutely cannot keep both dresses. And I think I'm pretty sold on the Emmanuel...
Yasmin does look better now I've added tights and boots though. Grrr Confused

Huff I like them both but think the Emmanuelle looks really good on you. ( also your bedroom looks really nice !!)

Thanks @Laska5772 terrible lighting in the pics - a spider was lowering itself on to my head and I was trying to be quick!

Nearlyadoctor · 29/08/2018 14:16

@Huff they both look really good and to don’t think the Emmanuel accentuates your hips at all. Overall prefer the Emmanuel on you .

Laska5772 · 29/08/2018 14:18

Soy I think you will really like the cashmere . oh and sorry but i also bought some grey/black jeggings in M&S today Grin

Ella yes parka is lovely but i know what you mean about the hood. I tried the fire parka last winters sale , and it was just impossible . . I did buy a Musto parka in TKmaxx which is great , both waterproof and warm but again the hood is so big.. Ive worried that i may actually step out in front of a car , sometimes when i have worn it up.

Laska5772 · 29/08/2018 14:19

Ooh... that's lovely Nearly .... (Laska sits on hands..)

Huffthepuff · 29/08/2018 14:21

@Nearlyadoctor it's all that extra fabric from the pockets which doesn't help. I do love the pockets though so not sure if I'd change that. The weight from the extra fabric at the bottom makes the whole dress hang nicely.

Love that Boden scarf! Looks great on you

SoyYo · 29/08/2018 15:28

Huff love you in the Emmanuel, it looks so pretty on you 😍 more than the Yasmin actually which is far more difficult to style and not really a “work” dress. Really suits you!

nearly great Scarf! I had my eye on it too and will order from Boden, one can never have enough scarves! Grin

laska fingers crossed the cashmere jumpers look okay on me 🤞

SoyYo · 29/08/2018 15:47

laska forgot to add jeggings?! 😱😱😱 nooooooo Grin

Inforthelonghaul · 29/08/2018 15:59

Thanks SoYoI’ve actually just been to my local Tesco and bought the star jumper that I think Ella had a picture of and a pair of skinny black jeans that I think she also recommended. If they fit ok I’ll leave the Hush ones till the next sale.

I love this thread so much, it’s introduced me to clothes I wouldn’t have dreamt of wearing like leopard print leggings. I’m nearly 50 on the outside but on the inside I’m 30 yrs younger and my uniform of jeans and boring t shirts hasn’t changed much in that time.

I can’t wait to get my Majestic star trainers from Brand Alley. Fingers crossed they do fit me or I think I’ll cry.

Ellapaella · 29/08/2018 16:00

@Laska5772 think I may have missed the M & S cardi link - interested though - I'm a knitwear fiend and love a cosy knit!
@Huffthepuff both dresses look gorgeous on you, really nice. I love the longer dress with the biker jacket, goes really well together.
I also have a bit of bedroom envy, I'd love beams in my bedroom!
@redtulip12 looking as chic as ever in all your buys.

Laska5772 · 29/08/2018 16:00

Hahaha ! I dont care
