Yes Laska xx 💐

@dontcallmelen I'm ok providing I don't speak too much - otherwise I erupt into an uncontrollable coughing fit. My chest feels a bit tight. Hoping a couple days of rest and keeping warm will see me right. Kids are over the moon I'm not at work, middle DS tried to score a day off with me today with 'a sore arm' - he tried to persuade me that a pyjama day with Mum would see him right. Needless to say unfortunately for him he got marched off to school anyway so he was a bit sulky at drop off.

Ella definitely keep warm & try & rest as much as you can, lol at ‘sore arm’.
I think I might have some sort of bug, feel really sick & cold back with a vengeance feeling very very sorry for myself, hope you feel better soon.

twosoups1972 · 10/12/2018 12:46

Ooohh a new thread Smile

Hope everyone is feeling better if you've been ill. I've had a horrible cough but seems to be going now.

twosoups1972 · 10/12/2018 12:53

Can I ask your thoughts on this please:

GinandGingerBeer · 10/12/2018 13:18

Found you all 
Just popping on to say I hope all goes well today @LaskaThanks

Hope you're feeling better soon @Ellapaella, fingers crossed it will be gone by Christmas.
Love that dress @twosoups1972, i might keep an eye on that and see if it gets reduced in the sale, monsoon used to always do 50% off in the sale, I don't know if they still do as I've not shopped there for a while, the one near me closed.

Ellapaella · 10/12/2018 13:28

@twosoups1972 the dress is lovely. @Laska2Meryls posted a monsoon discount code on the previous thread.. worth a try to see if still valid?

OP posts:
Ellapaella · 10/12/2018 13:31

CSDEC20 gets 20% off Monsoon - just tried and it works

twosoups1972 · 10/12/2018 13:36

Thank you @GinandGingerBeer and @Ellapaella

I also found this one which is a gorgeous colour:

Thanks for the discount code, much appreciated. I'm going to order both to try.

dontcallmelen · 10/12/2018 13:58

Ooh nice dresses two I git a couple of jumpers from monsoon recently & the quality has been really good.

SoyYo · 10/12/2018 19:45

Hi everyone sorry I’ve gone a bit quiet...dramas @ home with DS2 who decided to go back to Brighton yesterday only to decide he’s still not in the right space so he’s on his way back home now, I’m driving to station to get him in half hour Confused kids eh. In his defence he is really having a tough time of it all...
laska I thought of you all day kept sending positive vibes your way. And loved loved the boots
melen thank you for thinking of me, DH is on the mend but still convalescing at home which leads me to
ella poor you! Thank you for the new thread, take plenty of hot lemon and honey. And
never hope you’re not under the weather as well!
happy good to read a new face, like your posts and yy to the baby bee necklace, impressed with your capsule wardrobe aims
soup like both Monsoon dresses you posted
cherries great OSS jumper! Really lovely on you

My Hush parcel is a fail. All being returned except for the £10 green bracelet. Nothing was terrible “per se” just meh and didn’t spark a feeling of fabulousness so I’m ordering other things instead and let’s see if I feel the Hush love next time...

Hi to Gin and Not and anyone else I may not mention.
Must dash! Duty calls.

neveradullmoment99 · 10/12/2018 20:01

Awww @soyo..sorry to hear your hush parcel wasn't up to much. Tbh, I cant justify ordering anything else atm as I feel a sale will be just round the corner. Tbh, there isn't much I want atm. I see there is the regular hush bashing thread. Had posted on it but I really cba.
@Laska, hope today went as well as could be expected. Hope you felt good In your outfit.
As for me, sore throat turning into a tickly cough like one.

PorpoisefullyObtuse · 10/12/2018 20:02

Laska you’re in my thoughts today.

PorpoisefullyObtuse · 10/12/2018 20:14

I have a hush parcel. Bloomsbury dress is huge. Too oversized. Too long. Feel like id borrowed it from a grown up and that’s in an 8. Wide leg trousers look like a possibility. Need to try when I’m not wearing leggings underneath.

twosoups1972 · 10/12/2018 20:22

Oh no @SoyYo that's annoying. I also sent back the Hush devore scarf I ordered, a bit TOO thin for my liking.

SoyYo · 10/12/2018 20:26

never take care and stay warm. About the Hush bashing I cba either! Grin whatever gets people happy I say, if it makes them feel better about themselves...Wink
So I’m waiting for DS2 train to arrive sitting in car with time to kill.
Yes the thing with my parcel was it was too much black! How much black does a girl need? The chiffon starry shirt is lovely but honestly can’t see getting much wear out of it and for £70 it didn’t make sense. The black dress is okay but nothing outstanding either.
The leopard skinny scarf a bit underwhelming even at £20

Porpoise you sound like me! Wink

twosoups1972 · 10/12/2018 20:28

@Ellapaella I had the exact same thing last week. I had no voice for about 3 days! Lemsip with some honey stirred in seemed to help a bit. Hope you're feeling better today.

SoyYo · 10/12/2018 20:28

Yes soup posted before I read you, exactly what I thought! Underwhelming

dontcallmelen · 10/12/2018 20:28

@SoyYo so sorry that Ds is still having some problems, so tough when they are trying to find a way to deal with what’s bothering them I hope he can get some resolution very soon.
Shame about the order, but least you have a pretty bracelet 💐

dontcallmelen · 10/12/2018 20:32

Porpoise did laugh at the borrowed from a grown up, thats the thing that does annoy me about hush sizing sometimes, it verges on the ridiculous sometimes, shame though hopefully trousers will be better.

SoyYo · 10/12/2018 20:33

Thank you melen ❤️ You’re always so kind, yes at least I have a new shiny shiny thing for my wrist Grin

Ellapaella · 10/12/2018 20:39

Hush bashing over a pair of trainers that are not even Hush! 😳
Those 90's style trainers are everywhere at the moment, it's hardly a unique trend.
There was a thread recently about a very similar pair of trainers and everyone was gushing about how lovely and on trend they were!

OP posts:
Ellapaella · 10/12/2018 20:40

Thanks @twosoups1972 - lemon and honey is definitely on the menu tonight.

What are the January Hush sales usually like @neveradullmoment99? The first thing I bought this year was the Florence skirt in the sale, that was in February I think.

OP posts:
Ellapaella · 10/12/2018 21:21

Oh and when are the sample sales does anyone know?

OP posts:
neveradullmoment99 · 10/12/2018 21:37

Not sure when and where the hush sample sales are . As for their online sales, yes they are pretty good. They reduce and then reduce again. They also add old stuff from years ago that they try and flog and sometimes if you have been after something from a few years ago, you can pick it up. It is variable though. Some things are a good reduction
