Hush! The Herald angels sing.... counting our way down to a Meryl-y Christmas

Hello everyone
New thread

Hello Hush experts!

Hope you don’t mind me asking a quick question regarding sizing.
I am hankering after Hush Gloria dress from JL but absolutely no idea about sizing (apart from reading somewhere that it comes up big)
I am size 8 but busty (32F) and not sure whether to go for size 8 or 10?
I am ordering online as no time to go to JL this week!
Can anyone advise?

I've only had kne one dress and I'm bust 34D and found the size 10 ginormous. I think others buy them more regularly and can advise

OpenMindedSceptic I'm a size 8 normally with a 30DD bust. I buy a 6 or an XS in Hush because as a PP said the sizes come up large

@OpenMindedSceptic I would say stick to an 8. I’m a similar bust size and have never had to go up in Hush dresses, sometimes I’ve gone down a size but in that style I would go for my actual size.

Great, thank you all, will order size 8!

@OpenMindedSceptic and report back!

hum hum hum hum..
I wonder if they will have a code soon.....?

Hello, I made it onto a thread!

If they wait too long to give a code we will have spent all our money elsewhere! Hurry up Hush!
I might, just might be tempted by the Fifi bag.....
Also got my eye on the star hair clip.

I think I need some lessons in shopping, haven’t bought anything for months apart from a cashmere jumper from Tesco’s ordered two summer dresses from French connection & T-shirts from Oliver Bonas did manage to remember its winter & added a bargain v neck jumper for £15.00 😳

@dontcallmelen but that's sensible, as long as you remember them next year!

I've had a total fail and spent a fortune recently ( jumpers from baukjen, Boden, warehouse and mango) 2 pairs of trousers from Baukjen, trainers and jeans ( from eBay each less than £15 but still) and today a pair of shoes I had forgotten I had ordered arrived! Gorgeous sale bargain from atterley but I do not need them so almost as soon as I opened them I requested a return before I could try them on. There are a few bits I would love from most of the retailers we all love but I'm going to delete my debit card from my phone and iPad now and keep it upstairs to stop me impulse buying! I really need to save some money ...

@dontcallmelen seems like a great way to shop! I must say I’m much happier when I’m not a slave to the constant ‘must-have’ mentality. Obviously I’d happily indulge myself if I literally had endless pots of money, but until such a time I think trying to keep a sense of balance works better for me.

I have my eye on a couple of things but I’m not going to go all out just for the sake of it.

Recently I have bought two pairs of sort-of-cord leggings from M&S and a summer dress from Seasalt. (love them all though)
Not exactly a big spender, me.

Ooh maybe I’m not so flaky after all😂 me either fuzzy I’ve spent £50.00 since July polishes 😇 I do actually need some jumpers but such a lot of the really nice ones are ££ & have some wool content which I can’t wear as I would be mainlining antihistamines, can wear merino or cashmere but not wool mohair or alpaca.

I've given up on jumpers...they all make me itchy and have to be hand washed. I wear hoodies most of the time now. I have perfected the "hoodie over dress" combo. (Prepares to be hurled off S&B)

Oooh fuzzy I think you may have started a new trend, just remembered I have a really nice pink hoody that I got in the mint velvet sale last year < hot foots it upstairs & rifles through cupboards>

Yay...len join me on the "no jumpers needed" bench!

Budge up fuzzy 😂

Fuzzy I ve also bought some of those sort of cord leggings, dark green and a burgundy/aubergine colour, they are really nice aren't they. ?
I wore my TU sparkle leggings to work today!( It was my last day so thought that I needed something a bit not work gear ) ...

laska I've gone for black and the dark green (which I love). Thinking of getting other colours..what's the aubergine like?

Hands up if you have to go to work tomorrow. Not you laska!!

@FuzzyPuffling I'm similar and super sensitive to types of wool but I can wear merino wool . Most of jumpers are cotton or an acrylic mix. I don't think you can tell? And the ones I knit are cotton or linen

I have the black ones from last yearfuzzy , the aubergine ( they call it dark grape, I realised) are a deep burgundy, really nice colour. Ive gone for the long this year as they are supposed 'ankle grazers' ( Im not that long inthe leg but found the regular just too short.. dont want gaps over my ankle boots ! ..M&S have become fond of this length it seems. I bought some per una jeans a while ago, but they seemed to have shrink upwards when washed and have now been relegated to garden jeans already (v. annoying).

Hush have 25% off on preview if you are signed in, but not on everything .....A really disappointing offer I reckon .. But you can see what will be going in the sale though !

Sadly none of the things I might have gone for are there , no leather jackets and not the glitter star biker sweat I liked either , nor the copper glitter top or any cashmere stuff.. Dress offer is a bit meh too..
You know I think Hush are losing it these days a bit

Nothing tempting me so far. Bit disappointing really.

They aren't discounting anything that's selling fast I guess they can predict what isn't going to sell so well. Mildly tempted by utility chinos but probably not enough to buy. The 2 jumpers I loved aren't in the sale
