Hi @noodle I can't get your link to work for some reason. I have also been considering a Hush Kensington, has it gone down in the sale?

Grin at blue gin!

Ellapaella · 28/06/2019 22:34

@noodlezoodle link not working for me either but I'm sure it's lovely, can't go wrong with a jumpsuit for any occasion.

NotAnActualSheep · 28/06/2019 22:39

This one noodle? It's gorgeous! Love that it can be worn with and without a belt. And the model makes it look lovely!

Mmmmm gin. I think I may have just had some of your nemesis len... Rhubarb gin. Was yum. Not blue though Grin.

NotAnActualSheep · 28/06/2019 22:44

Bum... That link seems to have taken me to a sign up page. Anyway, I think it's nice anyway!

Sorry to hear you're feeling ill never, and also your relative. Understand you don't want to out personal stuff!

noodlezoodle · 28/06/2019 23:02

Argh, sorry, not sure how I managed to screw up the link but yes, @Not has the right one. That sign up page thing is annoying but I think you can just click somewhere else on the page and it will disappear and you can then see the site properly.

@soups the Kensington isn't in the sale unfortunately - don't know if they'll add it later or not but I think last year's colour sold out if I remember rightly, so perhaps not.

Huffthepuff · 29/06/2019 07:36

Morning all,

Lovely dresses Soups I like the first one best, really suits you! Super flattering. The phase 8 one is fabulous and will be perfect for the occasion.

Not the M&S dress looks gorgeous! Perfect for holiday wafting. How are you getting on with the length? My blue one has arrived and it's about 4 inches too long. I'm possibly wearing it to a wedding today but think I'll add a belt as this lifts it up a bit.

Ella the v neck dress was my favourite out of the two. They are both so lovely tho! And the kimono 😍love that and you'll get a lot of use out of it.

I have a poorly ds who was up at stupid o'clock today coughing so we're all feeling shattered. Aiming to have a little sleep when he goes down for his nap 😴

I went a bit off piste and ordered a few bits from Forgotten Tribes in their sale. Slightly out of my comfort zone but think I'll keep the 3 bits I bought. Will try and take pics later.

Elephant hareems and grey boatneck top. The low crotch hareems are the ones I'm not sure about (not pictured) but I think they'll be perfect for holiday. Not ordered from Forgotten Tribes before but I'm impressed! Clothes are well priced and comfortable.

Love them Huff - look really comfortable but still cool. I should buy more clothes like this as they will suit the life I lead rather than the idealised one in my head. But I'm still on the no spend bench as off on hols next Saturday and packing has made me realise quite how many clothes I already have - quite a few are unworn

Binkybix · 29/06/2019 08:31

I’ve been away for ages - just checking in to say hello.

huff those trousers look great. Nice summer buy.

soups agree with the crowd that the first blue dress and the P8 are best - both look lovely on you.

I missed the football as was working until about 1am last night (pah!) but agree it really seems to be taking off this time round.

I got some Office safari sandals way back when and have now had the chance to wear them - super comfy. May look at other colours too.

neveradullmoment99 · 29/06/2019 09:05

Love the harems @Huffthepuff best of all. Gorgeous print. Look lovely and cool for summer.
Very dull and dismal here now. It was nice when I got up.
Cant remember who suggested it but have been using the vicks stuff up my nose. My cold feels less but I think that's combination of lempsip and the stuff as I really think I have taken the vicks stuff too late. Thank goodness you gave me the tip about spraying it up rather than inhaling it. I dread to think what that would have felt like! Anway, will see how I feel a bit later and if I am up for the cocktail night. Atm, I feel tired!
Expecting a few Toast things today. Then its off to the post office to do my returns!

Dinkydoos · 29/06/2019 09:27

Nice hareems!
soups like all dresses esp phase 8
The Arket one I took a photo of me in the green version ( then noticed had button undone and was stupid angle as the way I had my phone meant it rose up!) and I didn’t really think photo did it any favours. Sort of better in real life. May post pic anyway
Did someone on here get a long white dress loose fitting with black dots on?
Am on train and have seen 2 people in it looking amazing and wafty. Not sure I would look like it but I can fantasise. Anyone know which dress this is?

Dinkydoos · 29/06/2019 09:30

Arket in green. With button undone and badly taken so dress has risen up!

Fab harems huff! They look great with the cropped top, and love the print. I also like the look of the others for holiday lounging, but I see what you mean about them maybe being out of comfort zone! Yes, the m and s dress is looooong.... The first one I tried had a train at the back, basically... Sized down its better, and definitely off the floor. It does get caught under my heels a bit if not careful, but not too bad. A belt would fix it... you're right. The further size down was a better length, but didn't hang so well. Hope your DS feels better soon, and you get a bit of a nap too! And enjoy the wedding! (haven't been to a wedding for aaaaages, and feeling jealous)

Glad you're feeling a bit better never. Sounds like you should see how today turns out and make a call later. If you've caught it in time, or it's easily remedied with lemsip etc you may be OK.

dinky I like that! Lovely shape on you (also, you have lovely thick wavy hair Envy). I see what you mean about it riding up but that's prob just how you have your arms for the photo! I think it's nice with the button undone.

justilou1 · 29/06/2019 10:14

Love the dress, @Dinky!!! (Green is my favourite colour, so am biased!) Such a winner! I haven’t managed to work out how to take a flattering full-body selfie AND cover the face (although that part helps!) without making everything go wonky!!!

Harems are adorable, @Huff!!! Gotta love heffalumps!!! I can see you living in them over the summer!!! I saw a fabulous pair of black harems the other day which I thought would be great when it warms up again here, until I realized that they were lined with polyester. Who does that? Sounds like a recipe for chafing and heat rash!!!

Ellapaella · 29/06/2019 10:18

@Dinkydoos love the Arket dress! Really nice.

@Huffthepuff another fan of the elephant harems - they look great.

neveradullmoment99 · 29/06/2019 10:22

Love the arket green dress @Dinkydoos - gorgeous!
Well toast crinkle black crops came and they are huge! They are a small too. They are just ridiculous round the crotch area. Shame as they are a beautiful material. They are going back. The striped vest top is lovely and they only had a large left. Its a bit gapey and oversized but I am going to keep it as its very useful.

FuzzyPuffling · 29/06/2019 11:15

Just catching up with you all. I was out yesterday (see picture to see what I was doing - that's me on the left) and while I was doing that my Hush dress arrived. It needs ironing and I need to wear it with a belt (Otherwise I look square) but it is fine.

Soups how about metallic shoes with the Phase 8? (and I liked dress no 3 better than 2!)
dinky love that dress.

@FuzzyPuffling looks great! Where is that? Very daring!

Laska2Meryls · 29/06/2019 14:21

Kala spera from sunny Greece! I am on the verandah ,( but longer timers will have seen this view before as we are at the same house we have rented for some years. I forgot my lovely little holiday hand bag so bought this cute one this morning from a lady in the local market ( she was crocheting them whilst manning her stall ! .

It was really hot yesterday, reader 37deg, ( I thought I might melt espSmile after the long journey) but it rained during the night and it's around a respectable29 / 30 today with a nice sea breeze . We also have lots of shade in the garden

twosoups1972 · 29/06/2019 14:36

Hi @laska beautiful view I am very jealous! It’s hot and sticky here, I’d love a bit of sea breeze. What a lovely little bag, do you think you should bring some home for your Hush friends? Grin

twosoups1972 · 29/06/2019 14:37

@Dinkydoos you look great in the Arket dress, really suits you. I am still trying to decide about the blue version.

Laska2Meryls · 29/06/2019 14:41

I ordered this Toast dress in the green also, it will be too late to return I expect when we get back so fingers crossed! I sized up because reviews said bust was small..

Laska2Meryls · 29/06/2019 14:47

The bead design and the colour of the little bag looks like the SmileSmile Plough and other stars we can see so clearly from the verandah here at night as we are in a real dark skies area .. Smile
