Yy about accepting help & support, you have to protect your wellbeing just as much as your parents 💐 xx

SoyYo · 22/10/2018 20:14

FFS frill not drill Skirt! 🤣

dontcallmelen · 22/10/2018 20:17

Ooh that’s good Soy especially as they were on sale, all the more ££ for fur n leopard coats😃

GinandGingerBeer · 22/10/2018 20:19

Sorry to hear about your dm @Laska
The very best thing you can do is accept there isn't anything you can do today to help apart from taking care of yourself and getting a good nights sleep.
You'll be all the better for dealing/liaising/organising and supporting having had a decent sleep. I know that's easier said than done love but do give it your best shot 

SoyYo · 22/10/2018 20:21

Yes melen the £20 skirt was the biggest surprise, I just took a punt fully expecting to return. On my height it’s just above the knee but not too short and the frill is only at the front so gives a nice smooth siluette, and it’s very thick fabric and lined. Bargain for shorties so look out for it next time there’s a sale on

SoyYo · 22/10/2018 20:23

Hear Hear! Well said Gin
laska also if you’re not happy to post on the public thread don’t hesitate for a second to PM us.

dontcallmelen · 22/10/2018 20:27

Ooh Soy skirt sounds fab, how did I miss that love to see pics.

Laska5772 · 22/10/2018 20:58

Hi there ,thanks for your good wishes.. have heard more , they think there is an outside chance the hip may not actually be broken , but need to do more scans.. shes v confused , but i think possibly more shock , than anything else. She'll be in hospital for a while though.. we are all just hoping they will let her come home after, but q honestly , I wouldn't be surprised if not Sad..

DF has said s dont go over yet , so I wont but will be 'on call' '..
He also doesn't seem as bad as i thought , but i think v. tired and stressed. DB has taken the rest of the week off so I shall be going in to work as usual but will see what the morning brings..

I saw that skirt soy but didn't order because as you know I didn't actually wear the black ruched one much !! . I can just imagine it on you . Have they posted your Boden Jacket yet?. I have been looking again at the Hush one but is £220.. and would not really be practical for my 'new life' would it?

SoyYo · 22/10/2018 21:08

laska take each day as it comes. You’re wise to do that.
Your DM and DF are elderly and I’m sure when things calm down they’ll manage and they really are super fortunate to have you and DB on call and close by.

On the Boden parcel I haven’t checked yet on my hotmail inbox, but expect it’ll be here tomorrow if not the day after. I did like the Hush leopard fur but not that much that I’d be prepared to part with £220 (I save that kind of spend for leather jackets) so it’ll be interesting to see what you think when you get yours as you’ve the Hush benchmark to compare it to. My only benchmark is the Hush black fur Coat I returned due to feeling swamped by it and looking like an Eskimo midget with it on and the New Look one which was okay but didn’t blow me away...
You’re right on the frill skirt, perfect for little old SoyYo Wink

SoyYo · 22/10/2018 21:12

And the thing that attracted me to the Boden leopard fur is that being short it can be worn everyday with a pair of jeans. Of course it’ll be okay for your future lifestyle if you love how it looks on (that to me is the key).

dontcallmelen · 22/10/2018 21:13

Laska that sounds a little more positive, just take each day as it comes is all you can do really, be kind to yourself 😘

dontcallmelen · 22/10/2018 21:17

Soy midgets unite I felt like a honey monster when I tried one on recently.

Laska5772 · 22/10/2018 21:18

That's a v good point soy about wearing the Boden one with jeans that doe make it more casual . .. I saw the Hush one a few weeks ago in JL, but didn't try it on .. it is more of a coat

Good advice on 'one day at a time'.. thanks all Flowers

SoyYo · 22/10/2018 21:22

melen Grin

GinandGingerBeer · 23/10/2018 06:30

I've tried the hush one on a few times 
I'm sorry to report it's bloody gorgeous and not at all bulky. It's just too £££ for me @ 'cost per wear'

Laska5772 · 23/10/2018 06:50

NEW Stuff!! Grin

Love the black star jumper and the zebra scarf
also the diamante open star necklace

now just need a code to go with it ..

Laska5772 · 23/10/2018 07:05

..and the velvet puffa jacket...
lots of really nice stuff actually

A code is definitely needed

miffy2 · 23/10/2018 08:20

Yes! I love a few of the new sweaters

Laska5772 · 23/10/2018 08:39

The pink roll neck is fabMiffy actually I really like lots of it. I think the leopard skirt will be popular also

Justfivemoreminutesplease · 23/10/2018 08:49

Ooh yes, new clothes but damn, Hush seem to be back to being good after their last blip where nothing really stood out - really like the velvet puffa and even the hats look tempting.... hummm.... maybe I will be off to the Leeds pop-up shop which opens tomorrow....
And hope all gets better soon with your DM Laska

Laska5772 · 23/10/2018 09:50

I've ordered that puffa ( it's 3 day wait according to them . If they do a code later I can always re order. Really want to decide between the Boden one or that

SoyYo · 23/10/2018 11:09

laska thanks for the alert on new things, yes that puffa velvet looks great so it’ll be good to hear what you think on receipt.
I love the Aurora gold/Black v neck jumper, and the RocknRoll clutch. Hope they have a code soon!
The leopard print green skirt looks good but how much leopard does a girl need Hmm
The blue fur scarf is luscious!
Agree new star necklace looks lovely too.
And the beret and beanie but I’m not a hat wearer as they flatten my curly mop and end up with triangle head so I’ll just admire whoever decides to wear it.

Hope news on your DM are hopeful this morning

SoyYo · 23/10/2018 11:45

Oh yes for melen the bargain Hush frill skirt with the Stella new jumper (I know people say navy/Black is a bad combo but I don’t mind it) so you see how neat it is.
The Stella jumper weight is great not thick like my winter wooden ones but not thin like the summer version I returned. The only confusing thing is the star description online says gold when it’s actually silver. I still like it and keeping and as it’s a bamboo mix hoping it will not need as much bobble shaving with wear as my woollen ones.
