Yes my no spend bench was all decked out with cushions n fairy lights but hardly anyone ever joined me on it😂 I’m going to order the Miriam dress just to ‘see’ as the Length might be to long on me, I really need to find some wedge shoes that might help a bit.

grannycake · 17/05/2019 12:53

Huff the Miriam dress looks ace on you. I had it in my basket but decided it would swamp me at 5' 2". I may reconsider now but I am trying not to order anything this month. I also had the Tatiana dress in my basket as well. I definitely need to stay away from this thread for the sake of my retirement plans

Huffthepuff · 17/05/2019 12:54

@Laska2Meryls has your joules bag arrived yet? Interested to see it. I ordered this one from Monsoon which is arriving this afternoon

Ooh @dontcallmelen and @grannycake yes for the Miriam love! I wish the weather was better so I could put it to the test immediately and report back. It's so grim here today.

Laska2Meryls · 17/05/2019 13:00

No huff not yet , although its been dispatched they say.. I do like the Monsoon bag , but its paper straw again..(and I am always worried what would happen if it got wet)

Ninkaninus · 17/05/2019 13:02

len I’m definitely going to be on that bench next month! And the money after!

dontcallmelen · 17/05/2019 13:05

Nink I have just spent four months on the bench, as I’m an idiot with money, but my new mantra is if it isn’t perfect it’s going straight back!
& I really could do with a couple of nice cotton or linen summer dresses.

Good afternoon!
Will catch up properly later. Currently sat in JL in Liverpool having eaten my complimentary scone and pot of tea Smile
Wearing:
Black marina
White M&S v neck T
Black n white gazelles &
Hush leather jacket. It was freezing when I arrived so I dived into primark and bought some shape enhancer leggings to wear under my skirt. They aren't enhancing me, particularly after the scone with jam n cream Grin but they are keeping me warm.
DS 2's passport collected.
Skirt purchased from H&M.
H&M home is fabulous btw..... can't carry stuff but definitely worth s look.
Going to look round hush/mint velvet. Then on to Zara. See what it's like in Liverpool.
Have a good day everyone. Smile

dontcallmelen · 17/05/2019 13:24

Ooh Gin enjoy the shopping.

whiskyremorse · 17/05/2019 13:31

@Never yes I'm glad to have the accounts over to the accountant and the budget variance report finished this morning for Trustees. It's my least favourite part of my job as Ive not had any training and have to work out what I'm trying to do!

Laska2Meryls · 17/05/2019 13:34

The postman is just walking up my drive ...Smile

Ellapaella · 17/05/2019 13:41

@Huffthepuff love both the dresses and the jacket on you - especially living the Miriam dress, looks gorgeous 😍

Ellapaella · 17/05/2019 13:41

*loving!! I hate the autocorrect on this stupid phone.
My parcel has been delivered but I'm not at home so will have to wait until later to try on.

neveradullmoment99 · 17/05/2019 13:42

Sounds harder than my work :) @whisky.
@Soyo, love your outfit. The trousers are gorgeous
Love everyone elses outfits today. The black dress and the kimono look fab!!!

whiskyremorse · 17/05/2019 14:22

Let's see if this works as any posts with photos get rejected so I am trying the website instead of the app. The sun has come out, so tights or bare legs?

I love the Cupar trainers , they already feel really comfy . I have always thought white trainers were just not 'me' but these are! They are not a bright white though and that's good I think but now I bet they will be really cheap in the sale

Ombre Linen Hoody . Meh.and disappointing . The stripe gets me right across the widest part of my boobs ( not good) and its far too short ( also not good.. ) The white bit is also quite see-through.. Going straight back ,

Sunset Sweat... so good I put it on and cut the label off straight away (and still have it on!) . I have kept the M,.. its plenty big enough I reckon , and so there's an L going back in a mo ..

I now need to get right on that comfy cushioned bench.. Pass me a Brew

Bare Legs whiskey (if its warm enough, -but It certainly isn't here in the far south though!) Hmm

SoyYo · 17/05/2019 14:29

@whisky loving the bare legs with the zebra! Though tights and those amazing boots look great too but it’s spring! Get your great legs out!

@gin Exciting!! I have some good really good stuff from H&M home (blue tie dye style bed linen set amongst others). Excited to see/hear what else you get.

@Porpoise I’m in between work TC’s here’s a quick snap of the trousers with the hidden tie done up to make them harem shape and my old denim jacket a la never

laska my trainer obsessive son reckons the Cupars are a straight copy of Nike Air Force Ones Might be useful to know in the future. I can still only wear mine for about half a day. Should have known better and sent them back.
My halo has slipped and I have ordered the Miriam and the Tatiana - I'm blaming this thread

dontcallmelen · 17/05/2019 14:35

Laska love the sweat top & trainers, you are right about the hoodie it looks very short.
whiskey definitely bare legs.
Soy another 👍🏼 From me.

dontcallmelen · 17/05/2019 14:36

I’m back on the bench if the Miriam works out, so will budge up for you Laska

Laska2Meryls · 17/05/2019 14:37

I just went to cancel the ombre top they hadnt shipped earlier (ordered two sizes) and annoyingly they now have...ah well, straight back with that one also (its the smaller of the two) .

whiskyremorse · 17/05/2019 14:40

Thanks everyone, bare legs it is!

Huffthepuff · 17/05/2019 14:51

@SoyYo I love love love that outfit!

Great sweatshirt @Laska!

I need a seat on the bench too Len (🙈)
I just ordered the Miriam in an 8 just to check the sizing. While I was there some Bryce culottes fell into my basket. The 12s I tried before were gorgeous but too voluminous. Going to see if the 10 are better. Still got my Monsoon goodies to arrive and Hush are being super slow with my returns so I feel doubly guilty!

Laska2Meryls · 17/05/2019 14:54

Soy I like those Gudrun trousers even better harem-style ..
Granny yes they are very like . but at least dont have the high heel back ( which very often I cannot wear ) . I like that the Cupar are leather lined also . ..
