Ella hope you are feeling a little less woozy today & resting up💐

ilovecherries · 27/02/2019 11:21

Well, I’m def keeping the daisy hortensia, i think it really suits me - though i’ts going back to exchange for a 10 Shock. The pink zebra I’m not sure about, it’s quite orangey and not sure if the colour suits me. I also ordered girlfriend chinos to scratch an itch but they are far too short- positively half mast even without a turn up. My final item was the black waffle top - for no other reason than it’s a style I always wanted to wear and couldn’t. The small is perfect.

Laska2Meryls · 27/02/2019 11:28

Are you up to posting a photo of the Hortensia. Cherries? Or are you still too bandaged? I'll definitely post one of the Helena when it comes.. ( the one I have now is far too big) .Also impressed with the delivery time. Even though I have Hush friends, they seem to have slipped back to 2 days here. ( I know they have to get a boat and all,but it used to be next day.. )

ilovecherries · 27/02/2019 11:41

Hopefully after tomorrow my dressings will be significantly reduced so will take some pictures then. I’m actually quite excited to see them now! I’ve noticed that the expected delivery date is always two days later now, but in fact theparcel has always come the next day so far. I didn’t order till about 5 last night, and it came with the mail this morning.

ilovecherries · 27/02/2019 11:56

I’m about to go to hell in a handcart. As if the leather leggings weren’t enough, I’m now lusting after the toast dungarees. I have always wanted dungarees but even at 25 and well under 10 stone my boobs used to stick out the sides something terrible. Talk me off the ledge!

Ellapaella · 27/02/2019 12:09

Cherries how tall are you? I was going to order the chinos but at 5'7 if they will be too short I'll not bother.

ilovecherries · 27/02/2019 12:17

I’m 5’7 as well, Ella. They are just an odd length. I say they are more a crop length for a petite person.

ilovecherries · 27/02/2019 12:20

They are probably about slightly shorter on me than they are on the model, but without a roll.

dontcallmelen · 27/02/2019 12:25

Cherries no talking off the ledge from me, I have always wanted a pair of dungarees, ooh off to look at chinos now I wonder if they might be an ok length on me then?

SoyYo · 27/02/2019 12:53

Well no parcel here yet...but I have lazy postmen so won’t be surprised if it arrives late afternoon.
Good to read the shirts are a winner @cherries and @laska and I say to cherries in your shoes I’d be the same trying all those styles that look totally terrible on big boobs, go for it as you can always return if unsure and soon you’ll have to try strappy tops/camisole style. Lovely!

@not yes I’m hoping Brexshite will be delayed (keep praying for a second Referendum and cancelling altogether) otherwise I’ll be one of the poor buggers queuing for miles at St Pancras to catch the Eurostar Angry...the starry blouse is beautiful and in fact I saw the ex Vogue editor in an interview (Alexandra Schuman I think is her name) wearing a dupe/rather Hush have produced this as a dupe. On the Alvers I fit a 12 on the Greek widow so I reckon you’ll be a 10.

@melen so the chinos May be a good length for us short arses! Wink

I have a dental checkup/cleaning appointment so must dash. I want to see pics of your new purchases!

@Ella Thinking of you hope you’re feeling a bit better today and comfortable

Laska2Meryls · 27/02/2019 13:28

Nor from me either. Id really like a pinafore dress, just saw someone in a great denim one.. but with my boobs? Id be channeling Nora Batty !
However, tomorrow is 28th. And I'm going on holiday 28thJune.. this means I have 4 months to loose the flab ..... I really. Haven't managed to recommit to diet but I'm doing it right now, right here !!

Laska2Meryls · 27/02/2019 13:33

I'd also like C cup norms also.. last time I made 10stone they did shrink.. but im 5yrs older now !!

Laska2Meryls · 27/02/2019 13:33

Norks. Ruddy autocorrect!!

dontcallmelen · 27/02/2019 13:36

Laska 😂 at Nora Batty, I like pinafores as well so versatile my dd is currently really into them at the moment, nothing like a holiday to spur you on.
I just had a lovely surprise, Ds came home with a pair of Levi jeans for me never had a pair before as always balked at the price.

SoyYo · 27/02/2019 13:36

Ah sorry laska i thought you’d received the shirt already. I’m now at the dental surgery (hate anything dental but must be done) and yes a pinafore and boobs are not a good match...
On the diet front I’m just getting fatter and was thinking today maybe I should rejoin fat club (aka Slimming World) as I clearly lack the motivation to do it by myself even though I know exactly what to do...this is why I go to Pilates classes as again I know what exercises I need to do but unless I lay down hard earned cash for someone to torture me into hardcore ab work I’m simply too kind to myself to bother Grin

dontcallmelen · 27/02/2019 13:38

Laska I’m the same doesn’t matter how thin I get, my norks never shrink either I’m a 30e which is pretty top heavy for my frame.

Laska2Meryls · 27/02/2019 14:00

I have the 14 blue Helena soyit's really nice but far too big , I now have the 10 and 12 on order.. don't really care what size I end up with(and with my boobs even when a stone or so less I still usually need a 14 in most brands, but Hush sizes being so variable these days I'm really not sure what to order to start with. I'll report back with photo .. ..

Laska2Meryls · 27/02/2019 14:26

Ooh Levi's Len I've never had any either .. what a lovely DS you have..

ilovecherries · 27/02/2019 14:27

Just realised I have the blue Helena. Didn’t realise that was what it was called. Mine is a 10, it’s a lovely, drapey shirt, really like it.

ilovecherries · 27/02/2019 14:45

And I really don’t need the Nell jumper (and in fact have some much Velcro strapping going on that I don’t want to wear anything too delicate), but OMG, I love the colour. I bought a bluebell cashmere from m&s, but it just missed the mark somehow.

Laska2Meryls · 27/02/2019 14:55

Did you buy it recently cherries or is it one of those they repeated from last year? ( I don't remember it from any previous season) if it fitted your old boobage it should fit mine although of course I am broader in shoulder than you so may need the larger

dontcallmelen · 27/02/2019 14:59

Laska he bought dd a pair as well as she is on a very very limited budget, I think he was getting concerned about lack of parcels😂 he can be very sweet at times.

ilovecherries · 27/02/2019 15:01

The Helena? I just bought it during the 10% off, mainly as I wanted a button shirt for under a cardi for coming home from hospital. To be honest, all the advice I got about not being able to lift your arms wasn’t true for me though - I was able to easily put on a tee shirt and jumper the next day.

dontcallmelen · 27/02/2019 15:02

Cherriesyy such a pretty colour.

ilovecherries · 27/02/2019 15:03

So only worn it with new boobage and only on day I cane home from hospital so far, but I had thick cotton wool wadding under my bandages, so still quite large!
