I had high hopes for a khaki shirt dress and a bomber jacket but they had to go back due their mad sizing

ilovecherries · 11/07/2019 14:24

Nice haul, slippery. Yes, their sizing is a bit bonkers sometimes. I’m also surprised that everyone seems to be finding the starry culottes too big - I tried them in in JL last week and had to go up a size. I felt the reason they were making me look bulky on the hips was that the waist was too tightly elasticated. I looked much better in the bigger ones - didn’t buy them in the end though. Look forward to seeing everyone else’s.

Well i may look rubbish in the smaller ones so will see. I am not at home but i have my parcel so will try on when i get back[😀]

neveradullmoment99 · 11/07/2019 14:52

I cant see some of the links but hush sizes are crazy.

ilovecherries · 11/07/2019 15:32

What do you think of these glasses? Much, much bigger than I’m used to but my hay fever is killing me. Are they overwhelming me a bit? I feel when I look in the mirror all I see is glasses.

never, k owing Hush irrationality re sizing, it could easily have been an 8 labelled as a 12 that I tried - it was THAT small on me.

neveradullmoment99 · 11/07/2019 15:40

I actually rather like them on you. They are quite chic. I love the tortoishell :)

ilovecherries · 11/07/2019 15:45

Was your lunch nice, ella?

Thanks never, when I’m bald I’m always anxious to get the rest of the look right (and healthy looking)

Cherries I love them, I have a very similar pair of prescription sunglasses. They look great. Also love your lipstick colour.
My lunch was very tasty thanks - poached egg, avocado, hallumi, red onion, tomato and chorizo. Probably quite a lot of cholesterol and not very healthy but it was delicious.

neveradullmoment99 · 11/07/2019 17:34

Your lunch looked lovely. Heathy oils and fats by the sound of it.
Poached egg, - good iron and calcium. Avocado - superfood is it not? red onion and tomato good in antioxidants and chorizo for protein :) Sounds healthy to me.
My star culottes came and they are so much better. Still a bit bunchy but fine. I got a lovely navy V-neck from Tesco at £5 and a gorgous pair of wide leg trousers in a kind of wave pattern for £18. Will post a picture shortly.

Gosh I haven’t posted for ages! A new thread, yay 😀 Have been frantically busy getting dd2 off for her youth group holiday, running round trying to get last minute bits. She finally went on Tuesday. Off to catch up properly now with the new thread.

Writersblock2 · 11/07/2019 18:12

@neveradullmoment99 - they look brilliant! Would you say true to size?

Writersblock2 · 11/07/2019 18:12

@ilovecherries - brilliant sunglasses! Where are these from?

neveradullmoment99 · 11/07/2019 18:34

@Writersblock2 no definitely size down.

Ellapaella · 11/07/2019 18:45

@neveradullmoment99 they look fab. Are they a 12 or a 10?

neveradullmoment99 · 11/07/2019 18:47

They are a 10. They are neater on the waist but plenty space on the hips and bum.

ilovecherries · 11/07/2019 19:02

writer, glasses are just M&S, bought as emergency the other day when my eyes were streaming.

Good to read you miffy and to know you’re enjoying your staycation (sometimes that can be the most relaxing thing if you don’t end up cleaning/decluttering etc...just puttering and having “me” time) and I’m well impressed at your self control. Go you! I’d be tempted too by the bargainous M&S denim skirt that never got if it wasn’t that I’m not really a natural denim skirt wearer...

never adore both purchases on you but the starry culottes are superb!

soups I did wonder where you’d got to. Sounds manic but as usual you juggle all your DD’s busy schedules with so much care. Hope you can have a breather now and start planning what you’ll pack for your Stockholm break.

cherries the sunglasses suit you so don’t give it another thought and you are lucky to have such a thoughtful DD too...your wee personal shopper Smile

ella yum lunch! I had an avocado with Ryvitas for lunch (only 1kg to go...) but would have loved chorizo and eggs with it!

Hello to new poster above! Please stay and I really like the camel print culottes.

So I ordered the starry Kensington in a 10 so will let you know if my boobs will accommodate that size (Not at all sure, despite weight loss cup size remains resolutely a G).

Oh and I also found a bargainous Fantasie bikini at Belle Lingerie with much more jolly colours than the black bikini which I bought earlier in the season. We’ll be in Spain for a whole month and even though I’ll work remotely part of that month I’m still hoping on lots of early evening beach visits and a quick dip in the sea.

SoyYo · 11/07/2019 20:38

Potter at home not putter...
And we haven’t heard in a while from not but I think she’s on her hols? Hope all is well with you and that you’re enjoying your time in France before the Devon half of the break.

whiskyremorse · 11/07/2019 21:23

@soy you're lucky finding a hairdresser so close to home even if they're not one of the celebrities you're used to 😉
Didn't know that Lorraine had coloured conditioners I will be googing that!

Binkybix · 11/07/2019 21:38

Thanks for the ideas on the blazers! For some reason I have a large order of non-essential warehouse summer dresses coming instead. Got distracted!

I also purchased my first pair of culottes, so we’ll see. Also tempted by the Hush star ones.

cherries love the glasses. Just lost mine so in the market for a new pair.

This is the dress. Not sure it will suit me but I saw a girl in it the other day and it looked so lovely on her I thought I’d give it a go Smile

Writersblock2 · 11/07/2019 21:46

Thank you, ladies. I think I’ll order the starry trousers and see!

Tempted by those sunglasses too...they look fab! Grin

whiskyremorse · 11/07/2019 21:53

@Binky love that dress!
