Noted @DameCelia 🤓

@Moominmammaatsea eagle eyes, yes lovely Saltwaters

Some stuff on John lewis

@Moominmammaatsea- a few years ago, out of the blue, Brora sent me an Emma Bridgewater mug to commemorate - I think- Brora's 20th birthday. The ultimate intersection of two loves

No Emma here, but a few pairs of Saltwaters !!
Just Grabbed the pebble gathered shoulder tee this morning for 16.50 .. may be too big but worth a shot..I wasn't sure of the gather being busty but we shall see

I did get a Japanese tie bag. As a freebie from Toast , but have never quite worked out what to do with it. ( May be useful in campervan for small items perhaps )

I bought the Ashley jeans in an 8 which is very optimistic. My Alix and Gabi are 8 but obviously they’re elastic waisted and I’m making no headway shifting 7lbs.but I thought I’d like to try them. I think I may have reached non Jean wearing age having had no luck so far moving away from skinny’s which I really only put on increasingly infrequently in winter.

@Countmeout, I have the Ashleys in a size 10 (my usual size) and I would say there is definitely room for manoeuvre around the waist.

@Laska2Meryls, my preteen has commandeered the Furoshiki bag as a lunch bag (she folds everything in beeswax wraps first and then ties them up in the knotted bag). It looks really cool!

Obviously born to be a Toast customer @Moominmammaatsea!

Is a lovely bitter chocolate/grey colour. Nice fit. This is a small. My usual size. Its plenty generous! A little low on the crotch for me and a bit of a pain to go to the toilet but for £55 I think its a keeper.

Not the best picture but since it stays on the web forever, I have rubbed out any possible identifiers!

I wanted the Ashley jeans but they didn't have them in my size and when you see the reductions on JL, It makes you resent paying full price!

I haven't take the loop back jumpsuit off yet!!! Too comfy!

@neveradullmoment99 it looks good! And great shoes BTW.

@neveradullmoment99, that looks great and I love your metallic platform sandals. I need to learn how to edit photos in the way you have (I’m wary of any possible identifiers as well) and then I can start posting some of my JL bargains, too.

Thanks. They are the hush woodstocks.
I have had them for a couple of years. Its all i wear in summer!
Debating over the two bags from toast. Ordered both colours to see. Black is practical, ochre less so but i think more interesting. Difficult decisions

Yes that’s lovely @neveradullmoment99. I love the big pockets.
Unfortunately John Lewis has spoiled us all with their reductions!

Bet you will wear it lots Never

My final (!) sale purchase from toast sale arrived this morning wool blend Gabi trousers in porcinini think they will be perfect for work in Autumn

@Moominmammaatsea
You just edit with your camera. Its pretty easy. I edit, then post.

They are a perfect fit @applecatchers36

@neveradullmoment99 - thank you - I can totally see why you haven't taken them off yet - they look amazing!

Going to pick up my Kin dungarees today, and then, finally, get my hair sorted out!

Was awake very early and noticed a pair of indigo pleat front trousers in an 8 so inspired by @Moominmammaatsea (I think it was her?) I've ordered those to try too.

@Countmeout - I was after those Ashley jeans too! does anyone have them? How is the sizing?

@neveradullmoment99, which bag? I have a bleu de chauffe mini-satchel and I’m currently coveting the teeny-tiny version? Since lockdown I can’t be faffed to cart a load of life stuff around and I’ve been good-to-go with a bank card and phone in my pocket - until the day last week I forgot I had them in my back pocket, sat down awkwardly and snapped my contactless card in two!

@faustina, I’m just off to collect my pleat front indigo trousers - I’ll report back on the fit. As for the Ashley jeans, I’d say they are on a par with the Jamie trousers with regards to fit, except possibly a little roomier around the waist.

The kate Sheridan pocket bag. Going to keep the saffron. It's the one I constantly looked at. I am like you. Forever carrying hundreds of things around but since lock down, I want to declutter my bags so this is a step towards it. I never carry anything useful except my purse, keys and phone. I don't ever take make up with me. I need a mini wallet thing just for my cards and perhaps a space for notes that will fit into the tiny space.
