I keep getting the Meryl jumper popping up in my adverts, and it is lovely lovely lovely. I really want to try it, but it is so expensive, and I do have enough jumpers, really ( no slouchy roll neck ones though ). I would really want it to have more wool for the £££ too. Would love to know what you think of it though @Laska (hello, by the way - I've been lurking for ages and delurked yesterday. Your pink hair is fab Smile).

The safety pin idea is magic @never. Like a lightening rod for clothes Grin. I'm definitely trying that. Much better than splashing down clothes with water and looking like you've been caught in a freak rainstorm. Tumble dryer sheets are also good for removing static, but I only ever get attacked by my clothes when out and about and not in easy reach of a convenient tumble dryer!

Laska5772 · 26/10/2018 11:08

sheep (may I call you that ? Smile)

Hi . nice that you've joined us.. Its an expensive' club' to be in though as we are all such enablers! well never , soy , cherries and ella are anyway Grin

I did look pretty much everywhere else this morning , and in the end couldn't find anything i liked as much..

H&M have a dupe though ,I wasn't convinced it would be long enough for what i wanted...so in the end 'justified' the Hush one once again to myself! Blush

SoyYo · 26/10/2018 11:18

Love Love your pink hair and glasses laska 💕adore the jumper too and a bit gutted I missed out on a bargainous colour block one from Brora yesterday, it was in my basket and when I went to check out it was gone! boohoo

never thanks for the anti static tip though I very rarely suffer with it (very grounded person here...not Wink) I shall remember it

cherries look forward to your coat fashion news

I have a haircut tomorrow with a curly hair expert, badly needed as wicked witch of the East doesn’t even begin to describe my locks right now Halloween Smile

DH has a day off work but I’m ploughing through a gant chart here. He’s kindly popped out to take my Sosander return parcel to P.O.

Laska5772 · 26/10/2018 11:19

and this one pure collection which is 80% wool 15% cashmere and around the same price as the Hush one but again seems quite short, I am Not enabling, just sharing my research!!

SoyYo · 26/10/2018 11:24

And no don’t listen to a word laska mentions regarding enablers on this thread.
Tskkk I wonder who it was that just linked to that bargainous H&M dupe? Grin

SoyYo · 26/10/2018 11:26

See? Another link! Stop it!🙈

Laska5772 · 26/10/2018 11:30

Its Research Soy (my job is research, its what I do ..and building sites) You dont need to look, you know..... . Grin

SoyYo · 26/10/2018 11:40

Gant charts are boring laska any excuse! Wink

Laska5772 · 26/10/2018 11:44

..Tapping fingers .. Hush seem to have put back the date of shipping for the puffa jacket to 3 days .. It was only 1 day yesterday ...Poo! Stamps foot...

dontcallmelen · 26/10/2018 11:45

Laska love the pink hair, ahh ok it’s called research now😂
never I reckon the sparkly dress would be ideal for your class party/around the house, I’m thinking of popping my sequin/sparkle top on whilst I do the ironing, cheer me up no end.

Laska5772 · 26/10/2018 12:02

Ha!! the H&M one is now sold out .. It wasn't when I 'researched'
it ..... so c'mon, who bought it ?

NotAnActualSheep · 26/10/2018 12:02

Lol Grin. (Sheep is fine. Or Not...). That H&M one is good, but I agree, it is a bit short. And what is going on with the sleeves?! I know the meryl ones are big, but the H&M ons are a whole new level. The Pure one is gorgeous, though sits on credit card (and the walnut one is "only" £90). I've been a victim of enabling before, even for things i didn't know I wanted... But, hey - I have will power. I'm not cracking on this until the end of the month

I've brought out my sequins today. A stripey sweatshirt with a big silver sequin star. From Maison Sainsburys. Classy, me.

Huffthepuff · 26/10/2018 12:35

Ooh @Laska5772 very excited to see the Meryl. I hope it's as lovely as it seems and that it's still in stock in a few weeks when I can afford it 🤞

SoyYo · 26/10/2018 12:49

I just finished the gant chart and emailed it off, thank God that little tediousness is over...
laska Lol at the H&M jumper ooo now...you are a true digital influencer (never mind enabler) Grin)

melen like the idea of ironing in our sequins 👍

ilovecherries · 26/10/2018 13:55

Well, could easily have spent 1.5K on half a dozen perfect coats. Shock. I’m delighted to say my Halo is intact and was so unable to choose just one when so many were calling ‘take me’, that all I bought was a pair of falke socks. The coats are weeping like Nobody’s Child. I am now safely back at central station and I shall sit on train feeling virtuous.

ilovecherries · 26/10/2018 13:57

All the coats were suitable for either the high flying life I used to have, or the aspirational life I dream of (which would involve a) a social life and b) high heels. Must learn to live with current reality.

Laska5772 · 26/10/2018 14:04

I've never had a high-flying life... Sad

neveradullmoment99 · 26/10/2018 14:22

Well me neither :( It is bitterly cold today - went to the post office with a parcel. Its beautiful though. Lovely day for clothes shopping @cherries.
Pity the coats didn't fit your lifestyle. I had on my olive hush coat from last year. Its such a beautiful coat.

neveradullmoment99 · 26/10/2018 14:24

@Laska - there is a beautiful jumper on the jigsaw website.

Ellapaella · 26/10/2018 14:25

@Laska5772 I love your hair! 😍
H & M have another dupe for the Meryl jumper, the one linked isn't the one I saw in store yesterday, the one I saw wasn't robbed and was charcoal grey. It was too itchy for me.
I think my Hush parcel may have been delivered but I'm aw work so won't get to try until later.

neveradullmoment99 · 26/10/2018 14:26

A review saying its too short though. Gorgeous in the pink.

neveradullmoment99 · 26/10/2018 14:27

If I bought the meryl jumper it would have to be in the pink I think.

neveradullmoment99 · 26/10/2018 14:28

Tbh, Im not sure about the sleeves on the meryl. They are quite big.

dontcallmelen · 26/10/2018 15:06

cherries did you see any good puffa coats? I have decided against the boden one, as reviews said it’s heavy. Been having a look online but haven’t really seen anything that grabs me much.
Lol at the nobody’s child reference, my Dh always sings this for my aunt at family party’s she loves that song, despite it being so depressing.
I never had a high flying life either, have the heels but no social life😳
