Is anyone placing an order today while the discount is still active?

I'm still wondering about the ruched skirt 🤔.

Huffthepuff · 02/09/2018 09:04

Sitting on my hands to stop myself to ordering the Ivy... must get to midnight...

I ordered the wooden hoop earrings yesterday to get the last of the discount orders in. There's not much else that takes my fancy at the moment other than knitwear but I'm not buying any for at least another few weeks as it's still so warm and sunny.
And I need a pair of DM's first, that's my next big spend.
@EachandEveryone the dress in your picture below is lovely.. honestly I think you should stick with it and just add some heels and jewellery. If you do decide to go for the meg skirt though I agree with Never that it needs a plain top - perhaps a plain silk top or a light merino wool knit. Length wise this is it on me, I'm 5'7

Am also sitting on my hands as not placed an order from AW yet. Am sure I will succumb tho!

Fanny I have a black ruched skirt which I bought after seeing it spoken about on MN so much but I find it surprisingly hard to wear. It tends to ride up if I wear it with tights even though I bought it in a bigger size than usual. I also find it quite difficult to style, hoping that the wide tops I’ve bought will go well so I wear it a bit more this winter.

AFingerofFudge · 02/09/2018 10:06

I still can't post photos today - does anyone else have that problem??? I only posted 4 yesterday but it says I've reached my maximum quota!

EachandEveryone · 02/09/2018 10:06

Theres 20percent off at Boden today.

Im going to look for silver or red accessories and make do. Ineed to buy a new mattress this month before i go back to work. I must prioritise! Its a casual weddding done on a very low budget which is very nice. Its never low budget for the guests though is it? Outfits/presents/hotels etc. So ill stick with that Zebra dress, i probably couldve sized down but i never know with my boobs. Ive also got a cheap polka dot number and i could get the same accessories for both and decide in the hotel. I might even go to primarni and look for belts etc and i have my silver Madonna bangles!

Another very warm day in London today and i have loads of ironing and cleaning to do.

FannyAdmin · 02/09/2018 10:06

Thanks inforthelonghaul, I'm worried about it riding up. I'm not sure about it TBH.

Does anyone have the dark denim boyfriends and can give an idea on sizing? It’s the last few hours of the BrandAlley sale and I’m feeling strangely drawn...

ilovecherries · 02/09/2018 10:50

I bought these, talisan, and I’d say they were pretty true to size. I did return them though on my last returns day, as I felt I had a lot of excess material round the crotch that was doing nothing for me.

ilovecherries · 02/09/2018 10:54

These are 12s, which is pretty much my standard size. I couldn’t have gone smaller on the waist.

PorpoisefullyObtuse · 02/09/2018 11:08

Talisan - I have them! I sized down ash usual size gave me a camel toe...

Laska5772 · 02/09/2018 11:11

I have them also talisin and like them a lot.I also have the 12 . They have no stretch at all though if thats important to your decision ..

Talisin · 02/09/2018 11:17

Thank you all very much. I shall ponder for a few hours.

Ellapaella · 02/09/2018 11:20

@AFingerofFudge try on the desk top site. The mobile App is rubbish at uploading pictures.

Talisin · 02/09/2018 11:31

And while pondering I clicked on the And/Or advert and argh! I want ALL OF THE STUFF! Most especially I want the black Megan dress, the Edie star trainers, the Zoe v neck jumper in red, the Marina crochet top, the Good Vibes tee, and for my fantsy lifestyle the Orieta fringe stiletto boots in gold suede. Must.Win.The. Lottery.

Ellapaella · 02/09/2018 11:43

I love And/Or @Talisin - especially their jeans.

Everyonelovessparkles · 02/09/2018 11:52

Hi again lovely hushitas! How are people finding the sizing of the new AW stuff, only I read somewhere that it is more true to size than before. Am thinking of ordering the red leopard print star jumper before the 10% discount ends but unsure whether to get a small or a medium. I am usually a 10 or 12 in jumpers. I don’t want it too lose but not skin tight either. I’d like a slim fit look. What do you lovely ladies recommend? Thanks in advance!

ilovecherries · 02/09/2018 12:05

Stamps foot. Why do they look so much better on you than me, Laska. They look like they fit you properly, whereas mine are all wrong. :(.

EachandEveryone · 02/09/2018 12:16

I’m in m and s not good with heels but these are mid. Which one can’t see any bright red. To go with the navy dress with zebras on or a black and white polka dot dress

EachandEveryone · 02/09/2018 12:16

Or not bright enough?

Ellapaella · 02/09/2018 12:18

I love the mustard ones @EachandEveryone and they would definitely go with navy.

EachandEveryone · 02/09/2018 12:20

Will I need a belt the same colour? I’m rubbish at this

EachandEveryone · 02/09/2018 12:27

Only £19.50!
