Missbobbins · 05/10/2018 23:18

Hello new thread... I have been out and have quite a few wines... am resisting looking at the website...

Ok... didn't work... have ordered the Apollo blouse and the star hair clip... damn it... will let you know... 🍷🍷 xx

AFingerofFudge · 06/10/2018 06:06

Ah here you are! Coming to the end of a nightshift (less than an hour to go!) and dreaming of my bed.

Wore my new petrol blue star sweatshirt yesterday and the only comment I got all day was "bet you're roasting in that"! (And I was, the day warmed up considerably from when I'd got dressed!Grin)

Can definitely recommend H&M longline vests, I have loads in different colours.

Just clicked the Leonie belt and the Melissa scarf...
Both lovely.

neveradullmoment99 · 06/10/2018 08:54

They are lovely. Did you buy them ella?

neveradullmoment99 · 06/10/2018 08:58

I bought the bedale trainers and have to return them as they are too small. I need the 7 but not sure if i should just find something cheaper. I did have a £20 mention me voucher but still £££. They are lovely and useful. Looking for a retro pair of black trainers in a similar shape if anyine has seen anything.

Ellapaella · 06/10/2018 09:01

No just lusting over them for now.
I'm going into town today so may see if I can find a similar belt cheaper and have a look at the scarf in JL.
I love the bedale trainers never and initially wanted them myself but they are just too £££ for me sadly. They are lovely though.

Ellapaella · 06/10/2018 09:02

I actually prefer your tiger scarf never and they have a scarf similar to the Melissa in Warehouse in a lovely dark red leopard print for £22.
I just win I could win the lottery to feed my Hush fetish!

missfliss · 06/10/2018 09:04

@Ellapaella I have that scarf from last year ( it's more teal than this years blue).

It's fab-one of my favourite things. It's big and soft and warm - I used it as a blanket on a US overnight flight !

I have flocked star tees arriving today in wine and black, hoping look good with leather leggings.

Also have snake print marina coming - the black has been super useful

Hi Ladies! Can't keep up but place marking Flowers

FuzzyCustard · 06/10/2018 10:50

Hello all,
This thread (well, the previous one actually but I was too slow) was recommended to me as a good place to start understanding my new shape (I've lost over 2 stone and dropped 2 dress sizes and have no idea how to dress any more) and getting some clothing help.

I shall read with interest.

(Pleased to see melen on here...a friendly "face"!)

Tigger83 · 06/10/2018 10:55

Hi all just discovered you lovely ladies and hush! Just wondering 2 things....

  1. What's the sizing like in real life? I'm 6 months post baby and lost 2 and a bit stone so smaller than pre pregnancy but completely different shape and no idea what to wear anymore!
  1. What are your must have wardrobe staples and where from? I'm complying a Christmas list and need casual and office wear recommendations!

Thanks 😀

ilovecherries · 06/10/2018 11:23

Hi fuzzy. Never and I were the enablers on that occasion. (I’m the one that has lost nearly 6 stone)

Given I used to live in tunics, I’m no longer convinced they do me any favours. I bought a couple of Lilly tops in the Joules promo last week. Just arrrived and I think the length is just making me look a bit frumpy and droopy. The same jumper with 8 inches tucked up out of sight looks more flattering I think? Am I reading that right? Think they’ll be going back.

Thank you cherries.

Six stone is amazing! People keep asking me "do you feel much better now?" to which my answer is "no, I feel hungry". Do you get that too?

I have a Hush catalogue next to me...I shall now peruse it with renewed interest.

neveradullmoment99 · 06/10/2018 11:40

Welcome Fuzzy This is a great thread and feel free to post pictures or ask anything you like. We are a friendly bunch.
Cherries Actually I like both short and long on you. Good to ring the changes. I think with any tunic, you need tighter jeans for it to work. Do you think because you have seen yourself in tunics in the past that it is tainting your judgment of them now? I am a bit like that with leggings but I wear them more like tights these days especially if I have a short dress on.
Tigger sizing can be variable. If you like something, somebody is bound to have it on here so feel free to ask. Staples are the wide jersey tops - all great from the grey to the green although price for what they are. I'll let others add to that list!

neveradullmoment99 · 06/10/2018 11:41

Oh and the amie joggers - perfect for post pregnancy and hush harems. They are big made so go down one size from what you are. They are great for tummies!

neveradullmoment99 · 06/10/2018 11:42

I think cherries Is wearing her navy amie's? Or am I wrong cherries?

ilovecherries · 06/10/2018 11:45

Yup, that’s the navy Amies. I think maybe you are right, never, tunics make me panic a bit about what is lurking underneath them.

Morning! And thank you for the new thread cherries I think the Tilly is a size too big for you? Agree with never about wearing skinnies/leggings with loose tunics too
Welcome fuzzy and hi to other Hush girls from previous threads in top form I see Smile
Rainy day in East Anglia, nothing planned this weekend so I’ll be popping to New Look to investigate faux fur since I refuse to part with ££ for the lush Hush and other pricier high street versions...

ilovecherries · 06/10/2018 11:46

I was already dressed when the parcel came. Will try it with skinnies later and see if that improves things before I make a final decision.

neveradullmoment99 · 06/10/2018 11:46

Cherries Try the top with black or navy skinny jeans. I think you will look fab! I really like that top on you. Can you link it?

ilovecherries · 06/10/2018 11:47

You think, soy? It’s a 12, can’t reallly believe I’m a 10.

Wish I had invested in a Seasalt sale raincoat but I am always in denial of winter and rainy days in the summer months Hmm
