Husheeta's count down to Christmas.. AW18 cont..

Hello everyone. Will link old thread

I like the coat Ella where is it from?

oh I do have a black pleated skirt.. ill try that with it

better?

Yes that looks great Laska. What shoes will you wear?
The coat is from Tesco actually.. I'm like their advert: 'I only popped in for a pint of milk'
I had a £5 voucher and it's 25% off all weekend so it was only £21.

The jumper looks lovely laska. I really like it in the navy and didn't think I would. Its a lovely contrast. I love it with the pleated skirt if it was navy. It would be lovely with the navy mint velvet one or similar. I am sure you could pick one up cheaper than the MV one anyway. M&S have one but that style is so popular atm that I cant see why it would be difficult to pick one up from somewhere. I don't think you look chunky in it but it looks way better with the skirt than the harems.
@Ella Love the sheepy jacket. Its cute. Keep :)

Ah see, that isn't in our Tesco!!! I got 25% off my haul at tescos. They have some really nice things atm.
Laska that's gorgeous. Now I need to get a black pleated skirt to go with my red one!!

Hmm not sure what shoes.. . I do have navy boots, but that might be too much...maybe black or brown would be better ..

I think i will try and get that Mint Velvet pleated skirt from JL ..ill order both sizes hopefully one will fit .

Trainers! [ for casual at least] Ankle boots? brogues.

never the black skirtcame from Asos a couple of years ago,was quite cheap too!. I bet they still have some like it ..

Brogues may be frumpy so maybe not. Boots would be fine.

I have black and navy loafers also ..

Ooooh off to have a little browse.

I would try them all out and see what looks best. I think the top and skirt are quite funky so may get away with brogues or loafers.

I think they have it on asos but its sold out in my size! Typical!!

Oh wow ...I love this skirt they dont have it not in my size though ..

Any good?

yes thats it It comes up small though..try the 14? (mines a 14)

Navy is such a flattering colour, I think it looks good on pretty much everyone.

Is it a zipped waist laska?
I love that mango one. You should definitely get that one Laska.

I am not sure the red jumper would look as good with a pleated skirt tbh. I think maybe it would look better with a leather one. I have a leather one. I think the navy one looks great with it.

ella too small sadly .I am hoping the Mint velvet one is ok.. Yumi have quite a nice one one also , if its not ,but i like the MV best..

never yes its a zipped waist

Ok so here's the plan. I'm packing it back up in the box and waiting until skirt comes. then I'll decide.. its £99 (ok I got 10% off) but doesn't go with anything i have right now, and if i get the MV skirt it means id have to pay possibly another £69 for it to do so.

I do like it but unless its utterly fab with the MV skirt I'm not sure if that makes a ton of sense to keep it IYSWIM.

(possible )

Thank you Soy for the info about the dress sizing, and Ella for the top enabling

I think I'm going to go for it and will report back on both.

Sensible Laska - give that halo a good polish.
Anyone else got a grey jumper fetish? I have way too many. Totally boring but a wardrobe staple/classic. This is the one I picked up in warehouse today. This will go with everything and has a waffle type pattern. Feels warm and great quality too.
