I could buy all of them ha ha ha....

Ellapaella · 04/05/2019 13:37

Yes @dontcallmelen I got mine from Peacocks, they were very popular around 2016 I think. I wore it to a music festival then never again.

Ellapaella · 04/05/2019 13:37

Actually I would love a long one just for lounging round the house like a dressing gown. They are so pretty.

neveradullmoment99 · 04/05/2019 13:39

I have one that i used in Italy but it so silky it constantly slips off. It is reversible and its beautiful. I got it from boohoo.com. Its a bit similar to the ones on one hundred stars but a thick slippery material.

dontcallmelen · 04/05/2019 13:40

That’s really pretty never lovely pattern & colours, would go with lots of things, I think they good with a vest top/jeans/or shorts combo.

neveradullmoment99 · 04/05/2019 13:40

@ella so would I. Have you seen the PJ's? They are beautiful.

dontcallmelen · 04/05/2019 13:54

I just remembered I have a pretty ombré one from River Island, that I keep in my ‘holiday drawer’ scuttles off upstairs to find it.

Laska2Meryls · 04/05/2019 15:13

Hi again ,I do need to read back so this is just an update ...I did see Ella saying I was a bit 'edgy' in my style, though, this morning!! Thanks!!xx That really made my day [smile}

Ordered a couple of things on Brand Alley Hush offer (thanks for the tip Doors ), the Frances trousers and the lightweight olive vest ..thought they were good , ..nothing else ..

never Shock at the Hush Kimono.. that is so poor.. like the trousers I ordered earlier inthe week, you could do better at Primark< I reckon.. I linked to Verry Kerry Kimonos a while ago, they are ££ but lovely . DH bought me this bamboo fabric one for Christmas ..

So of the jackets.. here is the midnight Wren.. I really like this, Its a 10 , the come up pretty big..so definitely keeping, I also have a Khaki 12 here and I really like that also ,but it really is a bit big (and I cant afford both) I may look out for a 10,

In this shot I am wearing the Clarks sandals I got earlier in the week for 20% off, really pleased with them .. and the Hush Jonelle dress

@Laska2Meryls that dress looks great on you! It made me look like a potato. Also really like the blue wren on you and sizing looks right so imagine the 12 in khaki will be too big for you.
Just tried mine on (10) and it's going back, it's too long in the sleeves and a bit wide on the shoulders . The fabric is lovely and soft so I may reorder in the 8 if there's a code but not sure. The kimonos can be a replacement 😬
Also ordered a linen jacket and top from M&S with some vouchers I had. Very pleased with these for work when the warm weather returns

Ok here is the khaki 12..too big? DH thought it was. Ido like it though. This is the midnight Jonelle , I bought these dresses a few weeks ago with the discount

Laska2Meryls · 04/05/2019 15:39

Yes i can see now that mine is too big.. Huff I want your 10!!

Laska2Meryls · 04/05/2019 15:45

I am thinking my feet look huge in those sandals in that photo..(I hope they dont in RL) they are only size 5 !

Huffthepuff · 04/05/2019 15:55

Then you'll be Laska5wrens is that right?!😂

dontcallmelen · 04/05/2019 15:58

huff agree the jacket looks a bit big on you, the M&S bits are very nice they have some good stuff at the moment.
Laska your feet are lovely😍 also agree that the khaki looks a bit to loose, the dress is lovely. Monsoon have a cotton/linen mix khaki jacket at the moment but it’s more hip length, it nice though I thought.

Laska2Meryls · 04/05/2019 16:01

Grin only 3 Atm! .. but 2 going back ..but I think I shall look out for yours coming back into stock.. I think I prefer the khaki, to the blue..

Laska2Meryls · 04/05/2019 16:06

I will have a look Len I mean, ordering yet another spring jacket, why not ? I have so many on my CC t the moment, whats one more 😂

Huffthepuff · 04/05/2019 16:09

I didn't realise the wren was out of stock! That happened quickly

Laska2Meryls · 04/05/2019 16:14

I wonder if its this season's Meryl.. Huff

BTW did anyone notice the Hush leopard skirt everyone went mad fr last summer is actually on Brand Alley ?. I think the restocked too late in the season

Laska2Meryls · 04/05/2019 16:16

Have pm'd you Huff

dontcallmelen · 04/05/2019 16:17

😂 M&S also have a couple of khaki jackets & a linen khaki single breasted jacket which I really like, am currently lusting after the khaki leather biker jacket but it’s £250.00😱
A very Hush like denim skirt as well, I think it just over twenty quid a bargain but as per usual with M&S anything that’s a bit on trend the sizes go out of stock quickly, really wish they would sort the stock levels out so annoying.

Huffthepuff · 04/05/2019 16:57

Have replied Laska xx
It is a stunning jacket. Think it feels/looks quite expensive (which it is). My photo doesn't do it justice

Ellapaella · 04/05/2019 18:41

@Huffthepuff and @Laska2Meryls loving the jackets. Very nice indeed. I love your white blouse Huff - bought an almost identical one from H&M yesterday.
Laska I really love that Janelle dress, looks much nicer on you than on the model.

Ellapaella · 04/05/2019 18:43

I really like the sporty jersey jacket (Hush). Has a 90's vibe - am very tempted.

Laska2Meryls · 04/05/2019 18:54

Right I have taken the label out of the Blue Wren and paid for it .. Its mine!!! It even goes on over a jumper ( my yellow Joules one from last Autumn ) We are just off out to local music thing , I may wear it ..
BTW Joules Love Jumper - great bargain although I like this one better

NotAnActualSheep · 04/05/2019 21:28

You've all been very chatty while I've been in my work mire... Out of it now for now (well, have been out of it since 11am yesterday, but then spent the rest of the day and today in self-imposed no-screen time cos I had too much laundry/reading/family visiting to do, which has all fallen by the wayside since Easter..)!

I've really enjoyed catching up with the thread and yy, it's such a lovely, supportive place 😍🌟💐. I really hope everyone (plus DCs!) is feeling better today.

Also, the photos are fab! laska, you look brill in the jacket/dress combo. I like that you have both in both colours! I'm feeling left out of the wren hunt.. (I don't need another jacket...). huff looks great too. It really is a lovely jacket. I loved the striped marina/Boho jacket too, aaaages back.

Such a shame about never's kimono though. I agree it will definitely go in the sale... That is pretty poor that its not even lined. The details on the website say it is... Which is a bit cheeky. But 💕 the one hundred stars ones. I may just have ordered this one as a cover up for a few summery dresses, and to do some wafting with jeans (though won't manage to look as effortlessly cool as ella Envy) . And a couple of scarves from the sale, which are a real bargain.

Also, following the white trainer talk I may have ordered these as I had a 15% code from a while back. I'm actually quite excited...

Hope you're all having a lovely Saturday evening. I have Wine.
