Hushista's stepping into spring...

[Ellapaella]

Hello all - new thread

I love the Hush Panama hat and it's great it comes in a choice of sizes as I have a big head!! Why is the model wearing one that looks so small for her though- like a pea on a drum as my dad would say?

Whoever suggested the seasalt NB i love them im off to Kingscross now with the zebra dress on from last year and my new trainers.

Good meal last night, I forgoed the buffet and went for the main menu, l love my hot chillies, so (really)hot & sour soup follwed by duck with veggies.. LeYum! ( and q healthy too.. ) I may pay for the chilli level later though😂.

Cherries I meant to say yesterday that tbh I agree with your dd, on the dress, I have seen you In more flattering dress shapes....
Never what a shame about the shirt dress,-it's a nice colour but yes, it even looks too big on the model..
Soy and Len shame about the jacket but halos back on !!
Fuzzy hope things are feeling a bit less surreal today, make sure you try and take it easy, and hope Dh is a bit better..
........I wonder if any parcels will arrive today impatient
Beautiful day again here today, I taking my bike down to the local cycle shop to get it serviced, it's been in the shed for far too long and has seized up a bit - like its owner! I am determined to get back out on it again 🚲🚲🚲

Nice trainers. Each I love seasalt, Twosoups it was me who goes for Gap classic straight jeans, They are just right for my shape

The colours seasalt, i dont know why!

Question about the brandalley biker. soy, len. Mine arrived today and not quite sure what to make if it, seeing as how I’m a biker virgin. Size - we’ll im glad I didn’t follow their recommendation to size up (only as they didn’t have one) and could possibly have sized down. That’s not a problem though, will just extend its season a bit. Colour - not as navy as I expected, but the greyish tone quite suits my cool colouring. BUT is the leather meant to be distressed and crumpled? Is that how it’s meant to be? Any others I’ve seen seem to have quite firm, smooth leather and this one looks as if it’s been flung around by a previous owner for 5 years. Which might be cool and intentional . Is it a multiply returned dud or is it meant to look like that and as I wear it, it will soften further to my shape?

cherries I looked on the Muubaas site & apparently it’s washed, which gives the leather that crumpled look, I wasn’t happy with the seams & one lapel had a really bad crease in it, so the collar doesn’t sit right, it’s a good shape but even at 130quid I don’t think it’s worth it imho.

Sorry posted too soon, reckon it will soften the others I have definitely sort of moulded to my shape, jigsaw & reiss do some good ones also all saints which lots of people rave about, but I have never had AS one as they are very expensive they do have good sales though.
I think Hush & Boden also do them, if you want to try a cheapie Sainsbury’s usually do a TU premium one £75.00 in the 25% promotion) which I have in black & it’s lovely.

Laska meal sounds yummy, very sunny here but very cold again.
I’m off to dd’s am painting skirting & doors, so not a terribly exciting day for me.

Ella beautiful picture, Edinburgh looks amazing I have never been further than North Yorkshire😳 really need to rectify that when Dh retires, hope that your Dm & DF are doing ok.
Fuzzy sending love & hope you are both holding up as well as you can💐

can leather be ironed do you think? there are a few things on 'tinternet which seem to suggest it can , (low setting cover with cloth)

If you iron it though, it might make it bigger. If you are not satisfied with it cherries, i would return it.
Well i received another hush parcel this morning and i absolutely love the camo shirt. I ordered the 10 and the 12 just to see and although the 10 fits beautifully with room, i am keeping the 12 for shrinkage as its 100% viscose and i love both the length and the bagginess. I dont like shirts that are fitted especially. In many ways i wish i had sized up to the 12 in the hortenza shirt. I do love it but i have washed it and not convinced it hasn't shrunk. I also ordered the flat studded sandals and oh my, they are gorgeous so will keep. Had also ordered the black wide jersey top. Its lovely but not sure i am convinced that it wont bobble like my other ones. I got the medium thinking it might be huge but its ok. I have 2 small ones in green and charcoal from winter, a black one from another season that has a v-neck and is a bit bobbly in small too and a pale grey one with a v-neck that is xs. So i have all sizes and they are all fine! So strange. Not sure whether to keep this or not although i wear my others to death. I do love it but at the end of the day, its just a black long sleeved top.

Oh and the leggings with the side stripe, i really like them but they are more like fitness leggings. So not really sure how much i would wear them.

The gold stripe makes them a bit dressier, but they are kind of at odds with the fabric which is sporty. Not sure i am making sense.

Just catching up. I’ve been on work calls since 8am even though back is less sore with each passing day it’s not helping...
@cherries yes the leather is distressed but I reckon it’s far more “wrinkly” than usual possibly due to it being stored folded for too long and once the creases are that bad difficult to completely get them out.
As I said before all my other Muubaa jackets (4 to date) came directly from Muubaa (all bought in their sales) and were nowhere near as “distressed” as your black jacket.
The blue one I received wasn’t up to the expected standard either and I’m returning so yes unless you really love the fit return.
Attaching photos of my now 3 year old blush Moobaa jacket so you can see what I mean...there’s a bit of distressed leather but nothing like yours, and I chose the light coloured one so you can see more clearly in the photos

@never without seeing the buys on you difficult to tell but to me it sounds like the stud sandals (love them btw and haven’t seen any so good elsewhere) and the camo shirt are keepers. You can always return the wide black top and stripe trousers: they do a variant with each season so you can always buy later when your existing ones are more worn out or wait to repurchase at sale time/with discount?

Ok so camo shirt in 10 and next black crip wide leg and sandals

Those are some cool sandals 😻KEEP! Ditto the camo shirt it is very loose though but it’s a nice relaxed look though not sure it wouldn’t look better with skinnies instead of the wide legs, I think if you’re going loose on top better to wear with a more fitted bottom? Or viceversa if you want to wear with the wide bottoms I would size down on the top.
Love the camo look too!

Actually relooking the camo shirt fit is good 👍not too loose not too tight, I’d prefer it with slimmer bottoms though...but that’s just me @never I still struggle with the wide leg cropped look which i know is super fashionable right now but I think needs a neater fitted look on top

And leggings

Oh i agree, but it was just to put on really quickly and to show you the sandals!

Thats the smaller size in the camo shirt. I liked the 12, its slightly bigger but you can see all through the arms so it has to be the 10.

The 10 is what i am wearing in the photo!

What do you think of the leggings?

I dont think they go with the sandals. I think they need trainers.
