I love it cherries and think you should get it. They are very cosy coats.

Oh what the Jeff!??Confused I've had Another email from Hush , about the S I now think they are sending me another one! i.e making 2 S and one XS!! ..

If i end up with 3 now , WIBU to sell the extra on ebay ? (just joking.. Smile) .

Ella I love the top Shop one on you the only thing I dont like about it is that that it comes from a Philip Green owned company . alsolike the Joules too, the style looks good on you !

Ellapaella · 06/11/2018 18:19

Thanks @Laska5772
Did you find the neck annoying on the Meryl? This TS one is so high in the neck I can see it will annoy me and maybe even itch. Also worried about my makeup rubbing off on it!

Ella the grey Meryl ( M - huge and went straight back) didn't seem like it was gong to be annoying , but it was very loose , more like a cowl neck and I found the fabric soft .. As for the pink , I've not actually received any yet !Grin .. difficult to know what one which actually fits will be like !!

twosoups1972 · 06/11/2018 18:49

Can I join the Hush party?

@ilovecherries I LOVE the velvet Monsoon puffer. I am very tempted since I saw a similar one in dark green from Whistles. They only had a M left in stock which was too big. How does the Monsoon one come up size wise?

@huffthepuff love the boots, I've been looking for similar

twosoups1972 · 06/11/2018 18:50

I quite like these boots:

ilovecherries · 06/11/2018 18:54

soup, I’m a size 12 with 32K boobs (so often need at least a 14). The medium from monsoon fits well - I also tried the large, but it was very bulky. As an aside - Next also had short velvet puffas today. The store I was in had teal and dusty pink. They are the same price as the monsoon one (although I love the navy and am glad I bought that one).

twosoups1972 · 06/11/2018 19:02

Thank you cherries I am also a 12 with 34E boobs, wonder if I should try both a S and M?

Feel guilty even considering yet ANOTHER coat! I really don't need it but it looks so lovely.

Laska5772 · 06/11/2018 19:13

TwoSoups Hi, welcome .. .. I bought the Hush velvet Puffa and adore it! Definitely worth the money IMO.. esp if you have a £20 referral code .. (you can use these if you purchase from a new email BTW)

I got the 12 and a 12 /14 with 36Es

twosoups1972 · 06/11/2018 19:51

@laska thank you, I had actually seen the Hush velvet puffa before the Monsoon one and was very tempted!

Laska5772 · 06/11/2018 19:55

Have you got a code two Soups ? I dont think mine works any more
but I could send it if you wanted to try.. .I do have a working £10 code though what I did ( cheeky!) was get one from someone else and set it up on another email (once i had tried the 14 an realised it was too big) . So got the 12 for £105.. someone here will have one if mine doesnt work ..

Ummmm...... Bad Laska Grin

Laska5772 · 06/11/2018 20:00

This is me in the 12 .. I have the Hush soft top jumper on under .. but is fine with a mid weight jumper also .. I wore it the other day and it was really warm ( a bit too warm in fact , but I am in the Far South!)

@ella, the topshop jumper is beautiful on you. You really suit it. It is a gorgeous colour. I love it on you. I am so sensitive to wool too. I would really hate itchiness especially around my neck.
So not ordered anything yet despite me being tempted. I also have quite a few things that are new and without a discount am not to keen.
@Soyo. I really would love the leather leggings too.

neveradullmoment99 · 06/11/2018 20:10

@soyo, you look totatlly gorgeous with that sparkly skirt on :)

NotAnActualSheep · 06/11/2018 20:40

So many lovely clothes! @soyyo, that sequin skirt is gorgeous and you look amazing in it. It would be a crime not to wear that again! (Particularly if everyone was too drunk last time to remember it...). I think that crinkle blouse would look good - it's special enough to go with the skirt, but you'd be able to wear it with jeans or even for work without it looking too much. A good buy, I think.

@Ella - I agree with others that the pink jumper really suits you, but understand about the neck thing. I get that with "proper" roll necks...they irritate me and make me itchy. That's why I like this year's slouchy ones, like the Meryl, that don't actually stand up and rub around the neck.

@Laska I don't believe you're getting 3 in the end! That's so funny... bet you don't like the colour or something now and have to send them all back! I called customer services again and I basically had to do another order as something weird had happened to mine. The chap thought there was a small pink one in stock, but wasn't making any promises... but that he hoped I would be part of the "exclusive club of pink Meryl owners" ConfusedHmm. I think you will be Queen of that club with 3 Grin.

@cherries I hope you are recovering from todayFlowers. Sounds like it took it out of you. You deserve a treat, and the coat is lovely. Lol at not making big financial decisions! As if someone is going to buy a house or something on a whim, in a sedated fug.

@twosoups [waves] Hello! I really like those KG boots (especially in the tan). They look really warm and comfy, and would go with loads of things.

Laska5772 · 06/11/2018 20:44

not I can always post you one if you want.. (the only prob would be if it doesn't fit, you then it would get complicated ..) LOL at the "exclusive club of pink Meryl owners" if it was the same chap who had the Begging customer , he was quite wry .. !

NotAnActualSheep · 06/11/2018 20:56

I popped into john Lewis on my way back from an appointment today, and they had a small pink Meryl in stock! To be honest, after all that, I wasn't that keen on the colour on me, though I didn't have time to try it on...it felt a bit bright. But I did have a headache and the lighting in there is a bit harsh, so I'll see what it looks like in daylight when it arrives or not tomorrow.

I did get these following @Soy's purchase! I compared a few, and although these were the children's, the sole of these seemed best for my "emergency forgetting to put the bins out runs" use of slippers. Plus £££ cheaper. I think they are the comfiest things I have ever had on my feet Grin

GinandGingerBeer · 06/11/2018 20:57

I've ordered a couple of pairs of coated skinnies from Next, thanks for the tip @Laska. I was hoping to order Boden ones too @never (via next) just so I could try for size then order them direct if I liked them (saves my bank account!) but doesn't look like next stock them.
Will hang fire. 

NotAnActualSheep · 06/11/2018 21:01

Oh, thanks Laska - that's a lovely thought, but I agree it could get complicated, and now having seen it I'm not 100% sure I'll like it anyway!

Yes, I think the CS chap was having a bit of a nightmare with the mystery pink Meryl's. He said there had been a "buzz" about it, but didn't admit to anyone begging!

Laska5772 · 06/11/2018 21:02

Not!!! A Lesser Spotted Small Pink Meryl, and you didn't capture it??!! Shock

Did it look too big for you ? Are you a 12 (if its ok to ask) ?

Laska5772 · 06/11/2018 21:05

Gin did you get the Silver ones ? I am strangely tempted.. (So) It comes from my Glam Rock Era youth (although I could never really channel David or Marc as have never been skinny or cool enough )

neveradullmoment99 · 06/11/2018 21:09

@not, they have been in my basket for the last couple of days. They look an a amazing slipper for the price. I am a 6 so should fit me fine. My poor feet need some TLC.
Got compliments on my DM's at work!!! Strange too and I didn't think that many people would like them so quite chuffed. They were very comfy apart from my little toe on my left foot. Its always a bit of a problem. All my shoes/boots hurt me there.

ilovecherries · 06/11/2018 21:10

I’m feeling fine thanks sheep. I’m a wuss in the mri - dd is in the same study but she hops into the mri, closes her eyes and relaxes. I on the other hand am a gibbering wreck and need a good whack of sedation. At least it means she can drive us, though.

neveradullmoment99 · 06/11/2018 21:11

Oh I had them on with my next skinny jeans, hush black wide top and a khaki vest underneath and my lovely gorgeous delightful olive sabrina cardigan. I just cannot not wear them!!! I love both the charcoal and the olive. They are so soft and comfy. Thoroughly enjoying wearing them.

neveradullmoment99 · 06/11/2018 21:14

@cherries, glad your mri is out of the way. Enjoy your gorgeous wide sparkly top. I really want one so think I may pop on and order myself one!!
