Fuzzy bravo well done you getting to the sofa & yeahy for the new Kensington dress.
Soups well done dd, she has done brilliantly considering the tough year she has had.
Will catch up properly hopefully tomorrow, have unpacked at least fifty boxes today, dd just got the keys to the rental property, so hopefully will be moving in tomorrow, I am beyond tired.

Earrings are gorgeous

Laska2Meryls · 16/08/2019 10:22

both really nice never , Dress is lovely colour, are you keeping .

neveradullmoment99 · 16/08/2019 10:27

I love love love that beautiful MV dress @Laska2Meryls
My only reservation is the material but it looks gorgeous. I think you would look great in it. As you can see, I am going through a dress thing! They are just so complete and no fuss regarding tops.
As for the dress that I posted. I love it. So am keeping. I have it both in a 10 and a 12. They both fit [yippee!] but the 10 is slightly gapes on the bust and I am worried about Hush shrinkage issues with the 10 as I am sure my lovely daisy dress [ the one with black background and yellow flowers on it] has shrunk although its still fine, its annoying. So with that in mind, I am going to keep the 12. Inccidently it still gapes at the bust but not as much but is not as neat on the shoulders but not so you would notice that much. Its a superb colour on me. It is one of my favourite colours and although it is actually quite short, fine with leggings and boots and equally leggings and sandals as I am wearing them. Love the earrings. How hush justify £28 for them I have no idea though. I have noticed this in Claires accessories too [when going in with my dd] they are SO expensive now for cheap plastic junky earrings!

Laska2Meryls · 16/08/2019 10:28

... actually although I do love that mint velvet dress, it is more for the life I do NOT lead!( i.e the fantasy going out to smart bars and parties etc !) I'd do better buying the gorgeous striped Toast Jumper or their checked Japanese trousers .. they are ideal for my actual real life !!

I must keep remembering this ..

neveradullmoment99 · 16/08/2019 10:32

I did think that @laska but you can still wear a dress!
The colour of the hush dress is beautiful so tried to get a pic of the gorgeous deep adriatic sea colour

Clothes for my actual life ...
Japanese trousers
Japanese dress
beautiful jumper
.. ..now if only I can sort out that lottery ticket problem... Grin

neveradullmoment99 · 16/08/2019 10:33

Its still more beautiful than that actually. Its deeper but my camera just cant catch it.

neveradullmoment99 · 16/08/2019 10:34

I love that jumper @Laska. Its definitely on my buy list. What trousers and skirt are you looking at? Can you link?

neveradullmoment99 · 16/08/2019 10:34

Oh sorry, you have linked [ stupid me!!]

Laska2Meryls · 16/08/2019 10:35

I really love it Never , you look fab in it,

Sadly I do have a prob with that style of dress from Hush , in that to get the bust right I need to size up and am then usually swamped in the hips, .. But it looks really great on you ..

Huffthepuff · 16/08/2019 10:42

Oh that Toast dress @Laska2Meryls 😍 and the jumper, both gorgeous! Yes I'd agree they are better wardrobe investments.
That dress would look incredible with a chunky wooden beaded necklace

@neveradullmoment99 that dress looks great on you! Love those earrings. Definitely going to order those after my holiday

Laska2Meryls · 16/08/2019 10:48

Am thinking the Toast dress could work with a long sleeve fine T under for Autumn? Its cotton though , so wont be a through winter piece..

That jumper will be mine (but not this month!)

I am rather taken with the trousers also huff, I have rather fallen in love with the lapis blue ones in the same cut that I got in the sale ..however they are pretty expensive for what they are , maybe ill wait for the sale on those ..

neveradullmoment99 · 16/08/2019 11:00

I do like those things and especially love the jumper [which will also be mine!!] I do think that the check dress is more versatile and you could totally wear something under it but the trousers look like summer trousers so I don't think there is enough of the season left. I do think they may be one of the first things to go into their mini sales. I would hang off. The dress- you could definitely get away with all season.

neveradullmoment99 · 16/08/2019 11:02

Thanks for everyones feedback on the dress. I had a problem with the longer style of this type of dress as it was longer and frumpier. It didn't really look frumpy but I felt frumpy in it away from the mirror!

neveradullmoment99 · 16/08/2019 11:03

I am in a linen seasalt tunic in a gorgeous green today, navy leggings and fatface ankle boots. Its cold and miserable here.
I am hankering after some cowboy boots [ I have NEVER like these but for some reason, I really would like a pair that are not too pointy and a lovely vintage leather to wear with denim skirts etc.] What is wrong with me?

neveradullmoment99 · 16/08/2019 11:06

Also would like some lace up knee boots. Quite like the fly ones but thinking they are maybe a little chunky for me. I know you have them @laska. You got them last year? I mean, how many boots does someone need?

Ellapaella · 16/08/2019 11:18

I'm considering the striped Toast jumper too but would like to see what the sleeves are like really, the wideness/flakiness of them might actually be quite annoying.
Love the MV dress Laska and it would be totally fine for dressing down with chunky boots imo.
Never I love the Hush dress and earrings, both are lovely.
I have ordered the Boden coat, haven't ordered the Hush one as the Boden one has buttons all the way down so much more practical for keeping warm, Hush one only has 3 buttons. L2K4 gets 20% off Boden so the coat was £140 rather than £175.

Ellapaella · 16/08/2019 11:18

*Flappiness rather than flakiness of the sleeves Blush

Laska2Meryls · 16/08/2019 11:33

Cold here too! And rainy! Are you still on holidayElla?
So , Is this working as an outfit? This is the blue green linen jumper I got in the Toast summer sale?
Never my fly boots haven't stopped squeaking since I got them, really annoying, ( its the lining against my socks I think,) I may sell them.

Laska2Meryls · 16/08/2019 11:34

Duh! Photo..

Laska2Meryls · 16/08/2019 11:36

Jumper is quite wide, I like it with my flared denim skirt

Laska2Meryls · 16/08/2019 11:38

Yes definitely cowboy boots for A/W !! Great idea..
