Amazing news @ilovecherries 👏🍾

Laska2Meryls · 16/05/2019 10:28

Ella ...KLAXON!! Sunset Sweat in stock!! (just looked and it is still ) Never says it comes up small..

Laska2Meryls · 16/05/2019 10:30

No you both Need it Nink Go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on...

dontcallmelen · 16/05/2019 10:36

Sticks fingers in ears, destroys iPad so I don’t go & take a look I have a monsoon black & white embroidered jacket, but..... I have a beautiful coral linen dress that nevers jacket could go with 😳😳

Ninkaninus · 16/05/2019 10:38

LOL len you’re my twin! In clothing and in thought process!

Ellapaella · 16/05/2019 10:41

Oh why! I've got the other one on order 😢
Can't afford both. Will wait for blue one to arrive, if pink one still in stock I'll return the blue and order it. Why do Hush do this with stock? So annoying!

ilovecherries · 16/05/2019 10:42

Love both jackets, never. Did you not have a gorgeous blue one last year as well - or was that someone else? You will waft beautifully.

Never's jacket is perfect to wear over a simple black dress for evenings out. I need it.

dontcallmelen · 16/05/2019 10:51

never what’s the sizing like? Just asking for a friend 😂

twosoups1972 · 16/05/2019 10:55

@cherries such wonderful news for your dd! Massive well done to her, what an achievement. Hope she is over the moon. What is she going to do to celebrate? Wine Cake

NotAnActualSheep · 16/05/2019 11:11

Hahaha - len and nink - you are being impressively strong against laska's blatant attempt at enabling!! it is a lovely jacket never - and yy - looks like it would be very useful with a lot of colours. It seems to hang really well and the embroidery is stunning. And your green kimono looks great on you too - I really like it with the khaki underneath. And the sandals! Hope your headache goes soon - thats really annoying.

cherries - WOW - well done to DD. That must give her such a boost, and made all the stress worthwhile! Celebration tonight (another one) I reckon! Happy birthday to your DH too Cake Wine.

laska - glad you managed to grab a sunset sweat! I still can't believe they sold out so quickly... The colour is really pretty and will complement your hair beautifully. Grin I think your khaki wren (10) is back on the website. Ive put it in my basket twice now, but have decided against it... even with the discount I really don't need a second one Sad

just - sympathetic vibes for the tax forms. I never had to do them til I became self employed - and now its the kind of thing i put off until right to the last minute and grumble constantly. I don't even have complicated affairs, and my accountant does the hard work - it's just something that my brain can't get to grips with. I'm not cut out to be a business-person as anything financial fries my head. Just tell me what i have to pay, and i'll pay it...

gin - oooooh - exciting...shopping trip to liverpool to actual shops with actual money. Hope you have a lovely time.

Also - gin and huff - which Vita Liberata (not liberia, as I put last time...) do you recommend? There are soooo many. I had a look and panicked and thought I'd ask... Not v good with decisions...

Laska2Meryls · 16/05/2019 11:33

Yeah you do... Not !! I'm wearing both of mine constantly. They go with everything..

Ella Its a return!! not a restock I reckon, Grab it now and send one back..

I cant see why you lot shouldn't bankrupt yourselves as well as me Grin

Moritz jeans and last years green heart sweat on today ..

I have gradual tanned my legs today using my 2 year old bottle of L'oreal sublime bronze .. ( gotta save some £ somewhere!)

Laska2Meryls · 16/05/2019 11:39

Ive always found the L'oreal Sublime bronze gradual tanner to be really good- better than than some of the more expensive ones actually. Its on offer at Boots now for £4.99, I use the Fair /Light tan, as I am naturally blue..

Huffthepuff · 16/05/2019 11:40

@NotAnActualSheep I got the medium latte body blur. It's quite dark so you may want to go a shade or two lighter. Magic stuff and very robust. Doesn't come off until you have a bath/shower and actively use soap on it. I avoided for ages as I didn't like the idea of it running off my skin if it rained!

Huffthepuff · 16/05/2019 11:42

@neveradullmoment99 that jacket is gorgeous! So pretty 😍

Laska2Meryls · 16/05/2019 11:43

...but I am looking at this Joules Straw Bag, and its natural straw not paper straw so more durable
White company have a nice one also but of course more ££. I may pop down to Joules in Cowes later

Ninkaninus · 16/05/2019 11:46

Ohhhh I love that bag! I’ve been looking everywhere for one that isn’t paper. But I’d given up so now I’ve got my eye on another bag which I want more (I think). It’s hard, this not just buying everything!

Ninkaninus · 16/05/2019 11:53

I actually prefer the Joules one (it’s nice when that happens. Usually I have expensive tastes). But that’s because I want a very relaxed and chill vibe when the sun shines, especially with dresses, and I think a shoulder or crossbody does that better. I have a hand held basket bag (linked upthrad) but the feel of it isn’t exactly right, it still feels somehow like more work to carry, IYKWIM.

dontcallmelen · 16/05/2019 11:58

Laska stop it, I didn’t even know I might need a straw bag😂

Laska2Meryls · 16/05/2019 12:00

Nink Figleaves have the Modena bag cheaper than Joules themselves and code HITHERE gets extra 10% off , and DEL1 is delivery for £1

so its £36.95 from figleaves inc delivery rather than £44.95 plus £5.99 delivery from Joules ,

Ninkaninus · 16/05/2019 12:01

Omg seriously I know now why I resolutely avoided this thread for so long!!

I can’t justify it.

dontcallmelen · 16/05/2019 12:02

Right I have found a cream cotton jacket, embroidered with bright pink/orange that I bought from matalan last year, still with the label on now that I have had a clear out, I can actually see what’s in the wardrobe so I have talked myself out of the hush one, unless by some miracle it comes up in the sale later on😇

Laska2Meryls · 16/05/2019 12:03

Sorry Len (do you remember Father Jack's sarcastic 'I'm so so sorry' line? ..That still makes me laugh now and DH and I still say it to each other )

I really should go and do some work now,, (but will be back to se how ny Enabling worked later on !)

dontcallmelen · 16/05/2019 12:06

Haha yes I do, me n Dh say Far Far away to each other😂

Ninkaninus · 16/05/2019 12:07

I love it when that happens len - I’ve done the same with a crossbody bag I’ve had for years. Nice. long strap so it sits just right exactly where I like it esp with dresses. I found it again this week when I kondoed my accessories. It’s hardly used and although it’s green/light khaki (don’t know what to call it) it’s a good neutral colour and goes with all my dresses for the summer so it’ll do instead of a natural tan one I was looking at.
