Toast... Numero 5 ! ... Going into Winter ....

[Laska2Meryls]

Hello!! Here is the new thread for all us Toast lovers ..

Welcome, all old and new posters

Coats

@SewingBeeAddict Your post was really helpful, thanks 😊 I have been undecided about the chalkboard dress but if it’s in stock for the next sale I’ll definitely buy it. I have the trailing leaves dress in 12 so it sounds like the chalkboard dress in 14 will work.

Happy to help
The 10 in the Trailing leaves fits me - a good size 12( tits/arse) beautifully so that sounds right.
The Chalkboard dress is much too thin to wear now so will put away for spring.
I also ordered the Hush Astrid navy star pj bottoms to wear under the night shirt as Im so cold!

The knitted skirt has arrived and it’s a keeper. Wonderfully comfortable and weighty. The green Francis ls t has gone back. Too like school uniform colour for me.
My trench seems to be stuck in Cardiff Royal Mail.

I’ve just received a cashmere scarf, not wrapped in tissue paper, all scrunched up and creased in a huge cardboard box. Debating whether to keep or return now. Pretty poor customer service.

Will catch up later as busy at work...but I wondered if anyone else is receiving a targeted MN ad for a tartan onesie with a rear flap opening? I absolutely kid you not! It’s proper cracked me up!

EEEEW. How are you going to feel when it's just you Moomin?!

@Countmeout - that skirt and top look great together - it would never have occurred to me to mix those two colours, but they totally work. Is it s aToast top? And if so, which one please?

@Moominmammaatsea - just you so far!

The Jamdani scarf arrived and the cotton linen grandad tee in charcoal ( which I missed out on in the summer and was pleased to find an odd return in my size ). Both examples of what Toast do so very well., and yes expensive for what they are , but definitely classics.. (I will look for reduction of that scarf in the winter sale though !)

The Emma Aitchison ripple necklace also, its lovely , but I do wish that when designers make something beautiful , they wouldn't just stick a rubbish thin cheap stock chain with it..( and it wasn't a cheap piece either.. )

However, the ripple rings are beautiful so am keeping and will be sourcing a better chain for it..

Thanks @faustina. It’s the Toast Francis long sleeve T in cumin. Actually struggling a bit with what to wear with it. They show a navy jumper and blouse but that made me look a bit frumpy, it does look nice though with a moss green sweater from Massimo Dutti bought last year.
At least you got a box @Gonegrey31 instead of a paper bag. No tissue in any of my deliveries either.
I love the look of the ripple rings @Laska2Meryls. Do you know she has a website?
No bare bums here @Moominmammaatsea 🤣

I wear my cumin Francis tee with navy mostly, looks fab under the Kin cord dress, but also with the dark green easy wool jumper , but also under the broken stripe jumper and the oatmeal graphic one, .. I dont care too much about co-ordination though ( but then i have pink hair !! ) I reckon it looks good with anything..

Count I saw the Emma Aichinson website before I ordered from Toast , .. lovely stuff..it doesn't seem to have the have he ripple necklace though .. I am happy with it (the charms, anyway ) just a bit disappointed with the chain ..
Anyway, I had a 20% off voucher so it was worth ordering from Toast

might watch out for that t-shirt in the sale - thanks both!

@Laska2Meryls - I liked her rings very much - in fact if I hadn't just bought a new ring from this place: motley I might have!

Moomin it’s not just you! I also have the utterly bizarre tartan onezie with arse flap! Well, not literally. Amazingly enough, I didn’t rush to buy it. Ooh my eyes! 😵

Faustina ohh Motley look nice ( as if I needed more buying opportunities!)..
Iand rather fond of Chambers and Beau . Recently bought this bracelet and pendant from them (silver, the light makes them look golden) And got these earring free with my order😄

Emma Aitchison ripple necklace.. ( on a different chain to the really thin one they sent it with ..

@Laska2Meryls - I love all of them - especially the ripple necklace - I think it looks a little like my ring - jewellery to fiddle with - I have both of these:
power ring
strength ring

You might like this designer Faustina. I have a couple of her rings...

Love the ripple jewellery.@Laska2Meryls

@Countmeout, I love Sarah Herriot's jewelry and have have several pieces including the escalator ring and matching pendant which comes with a great chain and hangs low. I am wearing the parametric ring as I type. Her jewelry looks great with Toast clothes. I think those of us on this thread have more in common then we think!

I sent three parcels back to Toast today: the cord jacket and three dresses from the sale/secret sale. I am very tempted by the Wave Print Dress in the new items but Toast wrap dresses never sit well on my upper half.

I love the look of that wave wrap dress too @ToastCosILoveIt. I haven’t worn a toast wrap dress before - do you have to be flat-chested?

Evening, Toasties. I haven’t been around much for the last couple of months because of a bit of an ongoing family crisis. However, having a couple of days at home and my DH has told me I’m to sit on my backside, get some rest and do some shopping. Not speaking to Toast after they cancelled my entire sale order so browsing kin and wondered if any of you had either of these? I’m strangely drawn to them but wonder if they are reaching a new level of fugly.

I Like the grey Dress Cherries but I think it will be huge.. its says exaggerated fit.. Haven't tried the other one but its lovely
i can recommend the Kin funnel neck tops though.. I have both the black and khaki now .. but again huge .. I have XS

I have the second dress in black. It's huge so I'd suggest going down at least one size. It's good quality though - and has pockets! I'm v pleased with mine, but I do like a tent dress.

Also the jewellery! So many things I'd love from each place - but the Motley stuff is really to my taste. Oh to win the lottery!

I bought the teal sweatshirt dress Ilove. I sized down but it was still so huge it just wasn't flattering and I sent it back. It is enormously wide.
