Starts at midnight, :)

EachandEveryone · 25/12/2018 21:29

Is it worth it though? When will the proper sale start? Im knackered just got in from work feet ar3 so swollen i wish somein3 would invent some decent nursing shoes that grow with your feet!

neveradullmoment99 · 25/12/2018 22:17

I suppose it depends upon how much you want something. I suppose you could buy now, keep and return if it is reduced further as it may be out of stock when the sale comes.

ilovecherries · 25/12/2018 22:20

Actual sale starts early Jan. it’s a bit pay your money and take your chance, there were things last year that went back up to full price after the 20% off period.

Merry xmas lovely hushistas and nice one @TeamDixon, love that jumper Smile Hope you've all had a lovely day.
I got my very first pair of DM's. Smile
Black patent leather, they're gorgeous. Bit sqiffy now, too much baileys on top of gin and prosecco Blush

GinandGingerBeer · 25/12/2018 23:47

Oh that's a bugger @Laska2Meryls Angry
Someone once transferred me a 3.5k balance transfer onto my barclaycard grrrr. Took a bit of sorting, had to prove it wasn't me etc

AFingerofFudge · 26/12/2018 07:34

Hope everyone had a lovely day yesterday and that Santa was good to you!
No Hush in sight yesterday as I wore my Barbour "The Snowman" top I got a couple of days before when it went into the John Lewis sale! I threw on a pair of jeans with it and that was the amount of dressing up I did! Was actually very relaxing not wearing my usual Christmas Day stuff. I do love dressing up sometimes but after a couple of gins whilst cooking I didn't actually care Grin

Holding out for the actual Hush sale as there's nothing I'm desperate for but plenty I'd like if the reduction was better!

Have a good day everyone x

Hi everyone, hope you all had a lovely day yesterday. i wore a black sequin pencil skirt (with stretch!!) along with a black knit top from Hush (Erica?) from a few years ago. It has an ideal neck line and looks great with the skirt.

Late last night I succumbed and bought the Domino shirt dress and the zebra scarf, along with the moon and star necklace. All things I have wanted for a while and am happy not to wait for the sale. I managed to use the £20 off code I got from Laska a while back, which made it more palatable too!

This morning I am regretting not getting the Emilia just to try so I may go back for it.

miffy2 · 26/12/2018 09:24

I meant to say I got all those with the 20% off as well. At 12:01 :D

GinandGingerBeer · 26/12/2018 09:39

I wore my hush leather a line skirt and red leopard star jumper yesterday although the skirt is a bit tight now, really need to lose half a stone in the new year as I'm knocking on ten stones door atm

I'm not bothered about anything in particular so will see what the sale brings instead.

I've been up since 630 this morning, have cleared the final lot of xmas debris and stuck the dishwasher on yet again! Just setting up my Apple Watch which was a lovely surprise. DH knew I was wanting one, mainly as I'll be able to monitor my blood glucose on it so he bought it me as a non xmas present medical device 😉

Have a lovely day everyone.

UtahGirl12 · 26/12/2018 09:54

Just ordered the forest green Love sweatshirt at 20% off!

SoyYo · 26/12/2018 11:34

Happy Boxing Day!
@laska sorry to read about the credit cardAngry
Had a lovely quiet day with DH and DS and got lots of tech from DH and the RocknRoll jumper and boys went crazy with lots of really thoughtful and lovely gifts too.
Ate and drunk too much and had so many calls and videos from my large family. The lot on Alicante (33 on Xmas day!) did some singing and sent me a video that made us wish we were having a riotous noisy Xmas. The lot in Argentina sent pics of Xmas dinner by the pool 😎
We spoke to the family in Scotland too and willl be up there later this year when the weather is kinder.
Xmas eve as is tradition for us (and to me the most important Xmas celebration) we hosted our closest friends with mulled wine and boys invited mates too so we didn’t mind a quieter day yesterday after the house full the night before.

I have ordered the leather leggings in grey with the 20% off in a 12 as I’m feeling very very fat after all the recent feasting. Xmas Blush

Have a wonderful day!

Laska2Meryls · 26/12/2018 11:40

I'm hosting today full roast dinner and pud.. am just having a small escape from the kitchen !! I love my zebra scarf but kind of thought it would be reduced. But hey ho it's a Christmas gift. Actually there is not anything I want so not having Cc is probably better! I need to lose 10 lbs just to get me back tomy last summer weight ( sigh) .. right back to the fray!!

neveradullmoment99 · 26/12/2018 11:53

Well I am feeling fat too :( Been eating way too much and everything feels a little tighter. Going to fast like crazy come the new year. I will be lucky I even fit my leather leggings @soyo. Glad you ordered them. I love mine and I think I am going to wear them on New Years eve. Invited over to relatives to see they year out.
As for just going to do nothing today!!!

neveradullmoment99 · 26/12/2018 11:54

As for today it should have read, doing nothing!!
Hopefully the leather leggings still fit!!!

neveradullmoment99 · 26/12/2018 11:57

An I ordered the cashmere roll neck in forest green. Last night just after midnight it still accepted £20 code mention me so was pleased. So I got it at sale price and £20 off. I cant afford to keep that and the toast one so will decide between both. Also ordered the larger star bag as I have been looking at it for ages. However will need to make choices as I just cant afford all of it after all the xmas expenses.

twosoups1972 · 26/12/2018 12:10

Happy Boxing Day one and all, hope everyone had a lovely day yesterday Xmas Smile

I'm tempted by the cashmere dress but I'm going to wait til it is reduced in the proper sale. I suspect I might find it a bit baggy.

I managed to nab the lovely Wyse London cashmere scarf I was after for half price from JL!

ilovecherries · 26/12/2018 14:24

I ordered wrist warmers at a minute past midnight. Clearly my heavy hints about them hadn’t been heard, and the charcoal was oos so I ordered black. Not sure if I will like them or not. Mum and dad gave me money for a bag, so I have ordered the Hush Fifi and the Coach Chelsea cross body - will only keep one though, possibly the Hush one as I’m always disappointed with the cross body straps on Coach bags. Otherwise nothing has caught my eye in the sales. Feel like I’m fighting off a bug and generally feeling a bit bleurgh. Bloody turkey was as dry as anything yesterday despite costing a fortune. Should have bought a chicken and spent the balance on clothes. Xmas Grin

SoyYo · 26/12/2018 14:37

Ooh good to read I’m not the only one been naughty with the 20% off...why didn’t I think of referring myself for the £20 off on top 😉 never mind I’m sure I’ll be back for the proper sale and can use it then with my work email address...
@never yes it’ll be a miracle if I get into those 12 size leather leggings I’m so porky Angry like @laska ill have to start a proper diet in January...glad you enjoyed giving the Boden leopard an outing (like you I must get it out more often) and can only say Awesome at the RocknRoll cashmere! Smile
I decided to go for grey rather than black in the leggings as I have sooo many black jumpers and tops to wear with them that I thought maybe the grey would provide a good ombré effect and also combine more easily with other colours...fingers crossed! They’ll have to be perfect to keep even with the 20% off it’s rather a big indulgence Blush

Theonlyoneiknow · 26/12/2018 16:43

I also ordered 2 star bags to hopefully choose one (then read no free returns during sale arghhhhh). Forced myself out for a run today, first decent one since I got injured back in May and have the London Marathon next year 🤔🤔🤔

Now have to address the mice situation in the garage and utility room. Urgh.

dontcallmelen · 26/12/2018 18:04

Laska eww thieving gits, hope you get it sorted quickly.
Happy St.Stephens day, I’m am knackered had dd her Dh & dgd here since Xmas eve, dgd was sooo good & loved her presents.
Xmas lunch was lovely & the turkey was beautiful, haven’t had a look any sales but do have some vouchers & money from Dh got some lovely perfume & fab pink leopard big scarf, candles & jo malone diffusers so have been very spoilt.
Hope you all had a lovely day yesterday.

NotAnActualSheep · 26/12/2018 20:16

Oh no Laska...what a pain. I was going to suggest returning and reordering the Fab tiger tee ( even if not the scarf as that was a pressie) but I suppose you can't do that now... though you would still be in time for returns from 2nd Jan when you'd be CC Re-enabled, and there may be even more of a discount, maybe?

I got the twiggy jumper (hardly a surprise!) which got it's inaugural outing on a trip to the beach today, followed by mulled wine back at DPs house. I also got some great books, some rhubarb & ginger Gin (with cocktail glasses!), a new purse to replace my one that has started spewing money out of holes in it ( literally rather than just metaphorically) and a floaty joules scarf ( this I may broach whether I can change...the colours are really nice, but it's got pictures of different dogs all over (DH thought they were flowers Xmas Hmm) and I'm not really a doggy person.) And DS v happy with his haul too which is always a relief.

I have eaten and drunk far too much. Xmas Envy (not envy).

And possibly as a result of the latter, appear to have ordered the lulu cashmere with the flecks in the 20% offer. On the assumption that it possibly won't be further reduced and has sold out in a couple of sizes. It's still horrifically expensive, but the summer weight one from brand alley is amazing, and the reviews seem to like it. I also like the different colours in it. But we'll see when it arrives...

Still with DPs and MIL so can't respond to everyone (allegedly we're supposed to be talking to each other Xmas Confused ), but glad you all seem to have had a lovely day, and hope you are recovering from the food onslaught.

neveradullmoment99 · 27/12/2018 10:29

Good morning everyoneSmile Whats everyones plans for today? I dont have any except mundane house work. Maybe pop to the shops for essentials.Spent yesterday slobbing around!!

ilovecherries · 27/12/2018 10:42

Morning :). I’ve just been for a 5K run Halo. Don’t have much planned for today, nearly out of fresh veggies so will need to brave the village at some point. DD is studying, DH at work. Had a very slobby day yesterday.

EachandEveryone · 27/12/2018 11:24

This is my day off and i have those Boden straight jogging pants on they are lovely and warm although the pattern leaves alot to be desired. I need to go out with my shopping trolley and buy cat litter then i need to pack. One day back at work tomorrow then up to Yorkshire for the New Year. Just found out my cousin is expecting twins so i will be helping her get over the shock!
