Goodness! I thought I'd catch up on the thread on a long and boring train journey this morning, and I am so behind... not only have you finished the old one, but you're 5 pages into a new thread....gahhhhhh. Thanks Ella!
I'm loving the photos... Laska you look brilliant in the stripey top with the cropped trousers and red sandals! V chic - love it. And also Yy to others who have said the teal dress (and top) looks amazing. Would love to see that modelled
. It's nice in the original colours I think, but agree that the brighter colour will really suit you.
Also, v late to the party, but justilou, your photos in the last thread were amazing! You're obviously one of those annoying people who seem to suit every colour, and your skin looks fab. So bright and glowing (in a good way...not in a sweaty way). You could maybe lose the Valkyrie hat though...
.
Ella and cherries - hope you're continuing to recover. And never hope you enjoyed your well deserved
. Yy to hyper 7 year olds....
. soy hope you enjoy your day off and haircut. You deserve it -sounds as if you're having a somewhat busy time, and more to come.... take care of yourself too. 
And waves to others too. len and codfish. Please can I come back onto the bench for a bit? I had a sojourn off it and bought a few things (which I'm keeping most of
) but I think that is me for now. I reckon I can do the lent thing too... I'm trying generally to cut down on buying things but my wardrobe doesn't believe me at all...I've got to the stage where there's not enough room for everything unless there's a huge washing basket of overflow....kind of like how there's not enough room for all the airplanes in the world unless some are in the air... (I know that's not true, but it's a good analogy...).
So I'm loving the zebra dress. It is really bright but very happy and floaty and doesn't feel sweaty at all really. Not 100% sure it's £65 worth but I do like it. Ditto the blue Helena shirt. I think that will get a lot of use as its long enough to wear as a bum- covering top as well as tucked in. Also the striped trainers I love, a la Ella. They will stay white for about 3 seconds but are really comfy and versatile. I'm also on team ombre top. I agree with soy that it's really thin, and with everyone that it's short in the body but the colours are soooo good, and I love the neckline/ back. I think tucking/ half tucking the front in sort of hides the shortness so I can kind of get away with it, though objectively it's not the most flattering shape. I tried it with that toast khaki skirt which I liked in terms of colours/ general style.
I'm not totally sure about the Santana skirt/ Cami combo. I think I need to try that again, though I know everyone says the Santana is really useful. Also the washed green Oakland top. I tried that in a medium for slouchiness but it's too big really...even though I know it's supposed to be. Not sure I love it enough to try the small instead. And the tiger cropped jumpsuit is awful...really shiny fabric and the back is kind of flappy open so bra-exposing. The shape overall isn't bad, but definitely not worth the £££ for me.
