Just ordering myself a box from this outfit:

loststock.co/

No idea when it will arrive but I thought it looked good, ordered one for DH too (in "dark" and "plain", he's a boring sod).

Ian the striped top long sleeved @JeremyIronsBenFolds I quite like a wee short top over a longer tunic/vest and I do love a stripe.

Also your name is the best 😂😂😂

Oh they're niceSmile. I asked for plain stuff so not expecting anything from that collection but hopefully there'll be something I like. Otherwise, yes, it's a donation and something to pass on

@poptypingchef thank you!

I've tried the dress on and it is gorgeous! Long, loose and flowy, and off the shoulder a little bit. Really hope you get one poptyping.

Having tried them all on now, the dress is great - but a bit nylon so not good in really hot weather, the boxy tshirt actually fits just right, sits on the waist, so that's a win. The linen top - nope. Has flappy shoulder epaulettes that make me look like a transformer. That one's off to the charity shop.

I'm really pleased the boxes are starting to arrive, I've started to get a bit cynical about the whole thing.
My parcel has been "on its way to the RDC" since 25th July (I ordered on 27th May).

I ordered plain clothes, so it'll be interesting to see what I get.

Mmm definitely in the market for capped sleeves. I'm broad enough. Please keep sharing, those who get their bundles. Looking forward to my parcels whenever...

Hey @JeremyIronsBenFolds, sorry if you’ve already said earlier in the thread but when did your order yours?

Your items are lovely, I would wear all of these. They're definitely legit and it sounds like things are starting to move now

I’ve been lurking to see what you all get so I thought I’d post mine! Arrived today... neutral patterns... the top on the left was too flouncy so I cut the frill off the shoulder and I love it now! I really like all three actually...

I ordered darker colours and plain. Would love to see what other people have been sent!

I've also ordered dark and plain but only recently so assume mine will be ages (which is fine).

Love the dress @ThroughTheMirrorEmpire what's the material like?

I ordered bright, plain. So hopefully I won't get the frilly blouse as I'm very busty and that will NOT do!

@drspouse I also ordered bright and plain but went For 31-35 which is younger than my age (denial). I’ll be interested to see what you get! I will make sure I share mine too.

@ThroughTheMirrorEmpire I like what you’ve done removing the shoulder flaps on that top, they looked awful on mine! Maybe I’ll have a go, if I can do it neatly...

There’s a Facebook page set up for those who don’t like their box and want to trade.

My box is on its way. I went for patterned neutrals, I’m hoping I get that tie dye dress. From looking on the FB trade page a lot of people got that blue top!

I went for patterned darks and got the blue frilly monstrosity and the Aztec-y beige print top - neither of which are dark. Allegedly this was a box for 35-40, I'm clearly dressing wrong for my age! I'm actually a little bit disappointed with it, there seems to have been no point in expressing any kind of preference when someone who wanted neutrals got the exact same set of stuff as I did. If it had been advertised as a complete lucky dip it would be less disappointing to get two items that are unwearable for me (beige makes me look ill and I'm far too busty for the blue one).

I ordered neutrals, patterned too so I bet I get the same box as @ThroughTheMirrorEmpire
I hate that Aztec top, I really hope I don’t get it! The dress is ok but I’m short so unlikely to work. I kind of fancy the giraffe dress just to try it although that will likely be too long too.

I ordered a men’s box as well (both were sent over a week ago so I assume should turn up at some point soon) and I haven’t seen anyone opening a men’s box on the Lost Stock page so I’m curious. Also ordered a kids box but I guess that will be delivered in September.

I tried everything on last night and although it’s not exactly my style I think I can get away with wearing them...

The more I see that Aztec top the more I’m warming to it. Saw a girl style it with orange jeans and loved it - what is happening to me 😂😂😂

Me too! I’ve got it and didn’t like it at first, but it does seem ok quality and I like how the girl with the orange jeans tied a knot in it.

I am currently de-frilling the blue top!
