Ella yy the bloody bruising, I always look like I have gone ten rounds in a boxing ring so fully empathise, lovely skirt prefer it with white, navy/khaki/orange/coral/lemon would look good as well.

Laska2Meryls · 10/06/2019 18:00

is it coated? Ive found this photo... its on the model they used to use

Laska2Meryls · 10/06/2019 18:01

...but contradicting Len, of your two photos I like it best with the black top! Smile

Laska2Meryls · 10/06/2019 18:10

Boden Code25% J4H5 if anyone interested (doesnt work on the khaki shirt though!)

dontcallmelen · 10/06/2019 18:12

Haha Laska that’s what makes this thread so good, we all have a different take on what we like.

Ellapaella · 10/06/2019 18:30

He s that's the one @Laska2Meryls
Sorry I meant the Facebook Hush selling site not eBay Confused

Ellapaella · 10/06/2019 18:30

*yes that's the one

GinandGingerBeer · 10/06/2019 18:33

Sorry I didn't manage to get back on last night, sorry @ilovecherries.
Mines an 8 I didn't realise, sorry.
Are you on FB? You could put an in search of (ISO) Post on the hush selling page?

ilovecherries · 10/06/2019 19:10

No worries, Gin, thank you so much for the offer anyway :). I have an ongoing search on eBay for it, but that’s a good idea to try FB as well.

I forgot to say, I’m wearing the Lucy oversized shirt from last summer today - I got it from BA last week - had ordered sheets so decided since I was paying postage anyway. I absolutely love it. It is exactly my shade of blue, and it’s really soft. So long as it washes ok, it’s going to be one of my Hush stars.

I like the shirt, laska, for me it would need to be cobalt though, I really don’t suit khaki near my face - but I do love boden linen shirts and how you plan to style it sounds good.

Your picture won’t load ella, but I know what you mean about thinners and bruising - I was on them for a couple of years with my leg, and the physio asked me once if I was bring abused - until she realised she had also left finger tip bruising all over my leg.

It’s actually been nice (ie not actually raining) here today. soups, graduation is week after next.

cherries have you looked on the outnet? I know it can be expensive but they do sometimes have quite reasonable prices.

dontcallmelen · 10/06/2019 19:32

These are from ghost on JL any good? If you hate them it’s ok😂

ilovecherries · 10/06/2019 19:42

I’ve been wondering about ghost actually. Any ideas what their sizing is like?

OP posts:
dontcallmelen · 10/06/2019 19:45

I’m not sure cherries haven’t bought anything from them in a long while (was a jacket which was TTS) Soy had a dress from them recently, I think it’s on the last thread might give an idea of sizing.

spagbog5 · 10/06/2019 19:47

Thanks for the lovely welcome.
I am slightly worried my spending may go into overdrive if I post on here as well as just read along like I was previously but hey ho you only live once !!!
Ilovecherries I was serious about lending the dress to you for your special day.
I understand you're not comfortable with that idea but I'd be happy to sell it to you if you're unable to find anything else that you like and have your heart set on that one.

Have a lovely evening everyone x

twosoups1972 · 10/06/2019 19:55

You are right to be afraid @spagbol Grin

*@Ellapaella I can't see your pictures for some reason.

@Laska I like the Boden shirt, which colour are you thinking of?

twosoups1972 · 10/06/2019 19:57

It's feeling very autumnal here this evening. I feel like having a warm bath and getting into clean PJs.

@cherries would personal shopping help with the dress? John Lewis do a good service and there is no obligation to buy.

Ellapaella · 10/06/2019 20:05

@twosoups1972 it's freezing here too. Actually quite a warm sunny day but it's dropped about 8 degrees this evening and so chilly. A warm bath is a great idea. I have a presentation to write for work and then that's what I'll do - hopefully an early night too.
@dontcallmelen I can't see your pics either! Strange

dontcallmelen · 10/06/2019 20:19

Ella it’s weird, I saw your pics when you first posted. The pics I posted we visible for a while I can still see two of my pics on my iPad very odd.
Soups I lit candles earlier as it felt so gloomy & did a roast for dinner, just had loads of thunder & lightning my head is banging as well.

GinandGingerBeer · 10/06/2019 20:19

I can see lens pics but not Ella's 🤷🏻‍♀️
I like that spotty one.
@cherries ASOS is really good for floaty midi/maxis to wear with trainers

justilou1 · 11/06/2019 07:06

I can’t see any pictures either.... there are just empty white spaces where they are supposed to be!!!

Laska2Meryls · 11/06/2019 09:50

spagbog you'll end up spending no doubt, by Len" has a nice comfy no spend bench she is always welcome to share. Really Lovely offer to sell your dress to cherries* hope you can work something out ..
I have ordered the dusky pink linen shirt Noe from Boden and the khaki just to see. I think I'm more likely to like the pink.. I have a couple of their ones from a few years ago and they have worn and washed brilliantly,
Cool here again today hopefully not gearing up for a IOW soggy festival ( although I am not going) .. but office is right next door to the site, on the quayside so mud not great !!
Am wearing Hush Frances trousers ( from BA) and striped wide top today ..
Cherries I tried the Lucy shirt but sent back at the time as £££ , missed it on BA ( annoyed)

Laska2Meryls · 11/06/2019 09:52

The site is a bit weird arm , I can't access it on my phone through adblocker, so getting loads of download rubbish with it and can't see photos either

Laska2Meryls · 11/06/2019 09:54

.. oh and odd bold fail on that previous post

dontcallmelen · 11/06/2019 10:05
