@ilovecherries the Brora prices are still high. There’s nothing that I’m mad about. I like the idea of a shorter jumper to go with the high waist styles. I love the bombardo trousers but I know they’ll look awful on me so I’m resisting. They’re cool though. I can’t wear mohair, too itchy so that means the cheaper cardigans/jumpers are out.

Just spent a fortune returning a box to Toast. Kept one t shirt which ended up being quite an expensive buy

Currently browsing uniqlo. Is this nice or nasty?

Also quite fancy this as a nightie www.uniqlo.com/uk/en/product/women-extra-fine-cotton-a-line-striped-long-sleeved-dress-426598.html

What would you wear it with?

The wall to wall rack of navy that comprises my wardrobe. It would look particularly nice under this, which I bought about three years ago. www.johnlewis.com/kin-denim-shirt-dress-blue/p4323134?searchTerm=Kin%20denim%20dress

It’s exactly the colour range that suits me best.

I bought that dress last year too. It’s lovely. It would def work with that top.

Had you paid via PayPal? If so, you know you can claim the return postage back via them?
ilovecherries · 24/06/2020 15:58

I like the ‘nightie’, but actually I’d happily wear it as a dress. The other link is just going to the home page though.

Almahart · 24/06/2020 16:01

Thank @ilovecherries, I'll try that.

This is the dress

Oh yes thanks to @ilovecherries or whoever mentioned PayPal return shipping refund in the previous thread. I just used it and it works!!Smile

It’s great, isn’t it. I think you can claim 12 times a year, so I save it for things that were heavy or valuable to return. Mainly Toast!

Hmm. I’m not sure about it. All the mismatched checks and that tiny ruffle in the middle would distress me. It’s nearly there, but for me just misses the mark. Not horrible, but I think you could do better.
Alsohuman · 24/06/2020 16:56

I like the “nightie” so much I’ve just ordered it. I’ll decide whether it makes the cut as a dress when it arrives. I’m not keen on the checked one either.

Countmeout · 24/06/2020 16:59

@AmethystMoonShine gosh you were lucky mine’s still not through. I did mix them with some socks at full price for my granddaughters, maybe it’s harder to combine sale and full price. Trying to be optimistic.

@countmeout I was rather surprised!

Railingsohno · 24/06/2020 17:35

I got this in black and it’s gorgeous!

Almahart · 24/06/2020 17:53

Ooh @Railingsohno that is nice

What's the sizing like? Uniqlo can be a bit wierd I find

Almahart · 24/06/2020 17:58

And @Ilovecherries you've confirmed what I already knew really. Thanks you!

Railingsohno · 24/06/2020 18:27

It’s quite small. Mine is a small and I’m an 8 in Toast. It’s perfect, pretty roomy in fact!

Countmeout · 24/06/2020 21:04

Oh that’s nice @Railingsohno. I find Uniqlo sizing a bit difficult too. I have 2 light padded coats, one for fat days and one for thin days.

Anyone waiting with baited breath for further Toast reductions tomorrow?

slipperyeel · 24/06/2020 21:11

I’ve got 3 dresses sitting hopefully in my basket @countmeout

Almahart · 24/06/2020 21:51

Thanks @railingsoho that's really helpful, I've ordered one

JulesJules · 25/06/2020 07:42

No further Toast reductions that I can see this morning. A couple of things have popped back onto the John Lewis site...

Countmeout · 25/06/2020 08:11

I bought a shirt in the sale before last I think it was - in the morning- , the further reductions appeared late afternoon, I asked for and got the reduced price, not sure if they do that routinely though. They seem to update the site at random times.

Hope you get the dresses @slipperyeel

I have got one dispatch email from John Lewis at last for the double breasted jacket, hopefully the second one for the Alix trousers will appear later.

I wandered and have bought a pair of jeans in the Massimo Dutti sale. Anyone like Massimo Dutti?

Nanasueathome · 25/06/2020 10:25

It does look as though Toast items are coming back in stock in John Lewis now
Good reductions

AmethystMoonShine · 25/06/2020 10:50

I thought that @nanasueathome but even ones not showing out of stock are saying no longer sold online when you click on them Confused

slipperyeel · 25/06/2020 12:50

I decided to order the large check cross back dress and the zoya dress, if they go down in price again I’ll reorder
