@paintyhands liking that folk clothing site- thank you!

Railingsohno · 17/07/2020 15:42

@Laska2Meryls that is a great colour on you. No point if it’s not quite right though. Have you tried the top that @ilovecherries has? The black and turquoise check? I bet that would look great.

Alsohuman · 17/07/2020 15:43

I really like the Kala on you @Laska2Meryls, you’re right - it looks much better unbelted. I hope you keep it.

Good news on the tag front @faustina. Are they paying the postage?

Railingsohno · 17/07/2020 15:43

Survived camping, not a Toast item to be seen but a lot of waterproofs and merino layers Grin

neveradullmoment99 · 17/07/2020 16:03

Actually the blouse looks ok. Not too Andy Pandy. Love the jumper on you but it does look to big. Definitely order smaller or try the same if you think its wrongly marked.

Laska2Meryls · 17/07/2020 16:20

Thanks for the endorsemens of the Kala. ButI am happy sending it back as I really don't think its nice enough for a place in my wardrobe.. I am reminding myself that just because it's Toast and a bargain , that doesn't mean that I should keep everything !! 😂.. And I have more coming......😉

Laska2Meryls · 17/07/2020 16:31

.. especially as it came with a prepaid returns label as well 👍

Countmeout · 17/07/2020 16:48

I like that blouse @ilovecherries although I didn’t realise the check was so definite.
@faustinagreat news about the tag.
I think I prefer the blouse in the kala patter @Laska2Meryls, might get more wear out of it. The colour is lovely. Fingers crossed for the Alix appearing in a smaller size.

I like the blouse too @ilovecherries

ilovecherries · 17/07/2020 18:40

Haha, you are all trying to encourage me to open that bag up again, aren’t you!

Alsohuman · 17/07/2020 18:41

Might be!

Moominmammaatsea · 18/07/2020 05:19

Toast Alix (in slate grey) currently available in sizes 10 & 14 on the JL site at 70 per cent off. (Public service broadcast now over.)

Laska2Meryls · 18/07/2020 07:17

Ah 5.19 ...Thanks for posting, but missed that Moomim, was asleep still. ( Im after the stone ones,) .Did you get anything?

faustina · 18/07/2020 07:27

@Alsohuman - yes, paying the postage - as well they should!

Alsohuman · 18/07/2020 08:52

Of course they should. I’m glad you got it sorted out. No reduced Toast at JL now, you have to get up early, don’t you?

Moominmammaatsea · 18/07/2020 09:53

@Laska2Meryls, a pair of Ashley long crop jeans - a lucky spot but scant compensation for suffering from crippling insomnia that has plagued me all lockdown!

goldpendant · 18/07/2020 10:24

Errr I have just bagged a returned honeycomb dress for £40 in JL store! Soooo hoping it fits!

goldpendant · 18/07/2020 10:52

Ok this is an 8.... it is BEAUTIFUL but ever so slightly small across the back. Bust is fine, all perfect when I'm stood up straight but to reach over, lean down the back pulls a smidge. Should I hunt for a 10? Then the skirt might be too full? For £40 I'm tempted to keep!

I love it, keep it @goldpendant
For £40 it’s the bargain of the year!

goldpendant · 18/07/2020 11:00

What if I could find a 10 though?? I could always have the 10 altered a bit? I am a little heavier than I'd like to be, not sure if it's lockdown or my metabolism slowing down though!!

Alsohuman · 18/07/2020 11:01

Depends how much the pulling irritates you. It would mean I’d never wear it which stops it being a bargain and makes it an expensive mistake. On the other hand, you’d always get your money back on eBay.

AuldFox · 18/07/2020 11:01

Until you have the 10 in your hands, I wouldn’t return this. It looks sensational on you.

Moominmammaatsea · 18/07/2020 11:03

That looks simply stunning, goldpendant! I absolutely love that dress (plus the kimono jacket in the same silk and pattern), and I flirted with it in my shopping bag a few times, but I decided it wasn’t compatible with my life/lifestyle. Have fun wearing it!

AuldFox · 18/07/2020 11:04

Oh and lockdown made us all put on weight. I’ve actively had to lose the 6 lbs I put on since March.
