@Countmeout I really love that dress. I don't think the colour would suit me but it's absolutely lovely. This one right?

@Ellapaella
No this www.hush-uk.com/clothing/dresses/linen-blend-maxi-dress_1-blue.htm
Dunno if I’ve done that right.
The one you linked is lovely too, I love that colour of blue and I like the shape.

I finally need to accept that my Hush black star print boyfriend jeans just don't do it for me. I've tried, I really have but I should have sent them back when I bought them. Can any of you recommend the best selling site to give them a new home and stop me feeling so guilty every time I see them stuffed in the wardrobe!!

EllaPaella · 17/05/2020 09:16

@Countmeout that's lovely too.
@FleurNancy there is a Facebook selling site but not sure how many people actually use it. Hush sells very quickly on eBay IME. I have those jeans, I bought them in the sale earlier this year and haven't worn them yet.

Thanks @Ellapaella I'll try eBay. They are nice jeans, just too big for me plus the denim is quite thick and stiff. Hope yours fit better!

Ninkanink · 19/05/2020 21:53

👋 and 💐 to everyone!

I’ve stayed away because I’m trying so hard not to spend too much!

Hope you all are well, safe and happy. Hope everyone is managing with the crazy situation we’re in atm.

I’ve popped in because I’m desperate to find a Hush Jolene dress in size 12 and I thought I’d check on the off chance that someone’s got it and might be considering selling it...if anyone happens to have it and not want it anymore, please please PM me. Thanks 🌻

Countmeout · 21/05/2020 17:03

Well my Penelope dress has arrived. What about yourS @Talisin . It had said up to 7/8 weeks but it came today Absolutely love it. It’s a keeper. Big plus it’s deep pockets. I fill it nicely 😳. It’s maybe a tad long as I’m shortish . But may be fine, will hand sew it up if not. Looks lovely with a denim jacket.
I’ll fallen off the Toast wagon as John Lewis had reductions this morning. It was meant to be, I was just looking for scone cutters.

Talisin · 21/05/2020 17:20

I haven’t heard anything about my Penelope so far which, considering it was supposed to be within 11 days when I ordered, I’m a bit teed off about. However having just checked the order status, it’s moved to processing now rather than on hold.

miffy2 · 21/05/2020 18:02

My Penelope was obviously a return as it was in stock to ship immediately, although a bit unfair as they should IMO fulfil pre-orders first.

It is ready for me to collect from my forwarding service but I have another delivery that should be there tomorrow so I will hold off and just make one (necessary) journey.

The Janelle dress arrived and I don't like it. The straps sit very wide on my shoulders and because I am big-chested it doesn't hang well, rather it clings and gives me a matronly look. I am hoping the other dresses suit me better LOL.

miffy2 · 21/05/2020 18:04

On the other hand the star cotton sweatshirt (in ecru) is just gorgeous. I got the large as I want it loose and it is perfect.

Countmeout · 22/05/2020 08:13

That’s disappointed @Talisin. Hope it comes soon.
Look forward to hearing if you like it @miffy2. The star ecru sweatshirt looks lovely online.

Sooverthemill · 22/05/2020 12:01

@FleurNancy I had those too and realised after an hour of wearing them that they were too big and too stiff. I sold in less than an hour of the Facebook hush and mint velvet group. I just asked what I paid plus postage.

@Ellapaella your dress looks fab. Beautiful colour on you
I've bought the sunshine jumper, the Brindisi belt and the yellow blouse recently plus the Alma jeans. But I do now have almost every sweatshirt they've brought out this spring! I love them but I used always to be disappointed in the quality. Not this year! I sent back the Emanuelle dress in the dusty blue print. Did nothing for me sadly

Talisin · 22/05/2020 19:51

@Countmeout Just got a text that my Penelope is on the way and due to arrive on Tuesday (I suspect it will actually be Monday). I just hope it fits after all this!

@EllaPaella I forgot to say how much I like the Carissa on you Smile

@Ninkanink Jolene! That was the name of the white dress I was trying to remember last week! I don’t have one either I’m afraid but It’ll almost certainly turn up in one of the sales this year as they still had stock (I think in all sizes) when they took it down last year.

Countmeout · 23/05/2020 06:30

@Talisin oh that’s good. Fingers crossed it fits (and you like it)

Talisin · 26/05/2020 15:16

It came! Finally! I’d pretty much given up on it arriving today as I’d already had a van delivery earlier but it came via normal postman through the letterbox (it was in a paper bag type packaging which I’ve not seen before). Anyway it fits and I love it Smile I was a little worried after some of the reviews said it was tight on the bust but it’s fine for me. It’s actually even nicer than I’d thought - when I originally saw it on the website I assumed it was yet another animal print and didn’t look further and even after I realised it was little stars, they didn’t look terribly obvious - much nicer in real life.

Sooverthemill · 27/05/2020 11:39

@Talisin brilliant! Photo please!

Does everyone know that hush have relaunched their website today? You have to think of a new password with 8 characters one uppercase and one special eg @. No notification about this but I couldn't get in kept being told thank yiu for requesting a password reset ( which I hadn't). Phoned and the very pleasant woman said they were having issues so wait a few hours. Grrr. Hope it's worth it!

Talisin · 27/05/2020 12:44

Had a look at the new stuff and absolutely nothing is grabbing me. However, the Joline dress is back @Ninkanink!

@Sooverthemill I’ll try and do a photo later.

The password reset is very irritating.

Sooverthemill · 27/05/2020 14:52

There are a few things I had in my basket waiting for the sake and irritatingly they have disappeared and so I 'need' to look at everything to try to remember. Obviously I need nothing at all. I think a tee and a couple of tops and a dress. The new stuff isn't wowing me but I do like their basics these days. The new website is an improvement

Countmeout · 27/05/2020 20:12

That’s marvellous @Talisin. So glad you like it too. It’s a great dress. I spend yesterday evening taking mine up by hand about 1.5 inches which is a better length for me. I didn’t find it too tight on the bust either nor across the back.
Nothing leapt out of the new stuff it all seemed too holiday like .

Talisin · 27/05/2020 21:53

Argh - they still haven’t fixed the bloody site and no reset emails whatever they claim. This is annoying. I am officially annoyed. And the SpaceX launch was scrapped (OK, I know that one probably wasn’t Hush’s fault).

Sooverthemill · 28/05/2020 11:42

@Talisin I think I have received 22 reset emails, none requested by me! 3 after midnight when I was asleep

trumpisaflump · 28/05/2020 11:55

I'm a Hush addict but don't come on to this thread much as I think it would cost me too much Blush Anyway I wanted to ask your opinion on these sandals I have ordered and received yesterday. I can't decide if I like them or not. Not sure about the chunkiness of them (is that a word?) Also they don't seem too comfortable at the moment. Anyone got these?

Talisin · 28/05/2020 12:56

@Sooverthemill Still none here (and have checked spam). People complaining on twitter and insta too.

@trumpisaflump I don’t have those ones but tried the dupes from M&S last year and found that the addition of the platform made them pull across the foot when I walked whereas the normal soled ones were fine. I do remember several people who used to post here having the Hush ones in the past couple of years and liking them though, if that helps!

EllaPaella · 28/05/2020 15:57

@Talisin how annoying! Have you emailed them?

OP posts:
EllaPaella · 28/05/2020 15:59

I haven't ordered anything new, got a spare pair of the Alma jeans before they all sold out but putting them away for the future as my current pair are fine. I did get the pink 'Voila' sweater which is lovely- can't remember if I posted about that on here. Had lots of good comments about that.
