I’ve just spent the best part of £250

[Procrastatron]

...At Hush
I told myself I’ll send some back but I suspect I won’t. Not sure why I am sharing, maybe because I’m feeling a bit lavish or maybe because I did it within 20 minutes of having a little spat with the husband.
The weird thing is, I’m not always convinced I even like Hush....
So this was a fun read for you all...

I spent about £800 in LK Bennett’s the day after my mum died. Retail therapy is a real thing.

Before reading your post I had not heard of Hush. Googled them and have to say thank you very much !

[LunaTheCat]

Oh sorry about your loss.
I love a good and indulgent spend up.
Enjoy your things
I love yellow too - bought a bright yellow cos dress in our equivalent e bay and gets compliments every time!

[JoyOrbison]

tinseloatcake sorry about the loss of your dad.

Definately wear the yellow dress! When my dad died a family member rocked up in a yellow Panama hat, yellow linen shirt and shorts. He looked like a Columbian drug lord, especially as he is very quite and not very social so had an air of mystery about him

[Procrastatron]

Wow @Happymum12345 your DH makes mine seem logical and organised. I prescribe a much much more indulgent shopping spree than mine! Enjoy!!

[Happymum12345]

Op, you described my dh. The lack of common sense is quite unbelievable for an intelligent man. I feel i have permission to now spend a lot of money in Hush now when he does something that is bananas, like forgetting where he left my car and reporting it stolen to the police, only to find it just further on from where he left it. The latest was throwing away my tablets by mistake at the weekend which made me very ill until I could get some more, which isn’t easy out of hours. The list is endless!

Ah, glad you like it all! Anthropologie jumper sounds fab!

[Procrastatron]

The clothes have arrived and I am keeping them all. My favourite is the playsuit! I’ve also just picked up an absolute bargain in anthropology (real life shopping). A jumper reduced from £90 to £20! It’s a neon yellow oversized thing and will look lovely over the khaki play suit or jumpsuit when it’s cooler.

@tinseloatcake how are you? I hope the funeral plans are going ok and your yellow dress is as lovely as you hoped.

@tinseloatcake

I just spent 300 mostly in la redoute in a bereavement haze. (My ddad, who is not prince philip).

I actually feel a bit better for the first time this week.... it was worth it so far.

I bought a yellow dress. Yellow was his fav colour.

Very sweet purchase. I hope you enjoy your yellow dress.

[PresentingPercy]

I have just been to a funeral where the dress code was wear bright colours. I did. A yellow coat. The ladies were all in shades of pink, blue, yellow, floral and geometric. The guys has colourful ties. No black. It was actually a celebration of life.

We don’t all have to copy Queen Victoria! Or indeed the present Royal Family. We are allowed to have our own ideas. Wear what the person who has died would appreciate.

[customwatkins]

Post spat splurge...I love it

Enjoy!

[Mosaic123]

Maybe you could wear a dark jacket, cardigan or coat over the yellow dress?

I wore a red and black hat to my Mum's funeral. She really liked red. No one said anything.

@Ikeameatballs I've got my eye on
the Joanie playsuit too. I'm 5'11 so very tall and worried it might cut me up the middle as they don't do a tall version. The boden ones have a tall option which is longer in the body. Might just order and give it a go. Just tired of having to send stuff back at the moment, too many trips to the post office!

[Ikeameatballs]

I really like the utility play suit and the Joanie play suit. I bought a play suit from them a couple of years ago and it is so comfy.

My recent hush purchases have been black coated jeans and two tops.

I also keep looking at the Kensington dress.....

[Procrastatron]

@tinseloatcake that’s a lovely dress.

[AcornAutumn]

[quote tinseloatcake]thanks both. I am trying to work out if i can get away with wearing it to the funeral. I expect my mother will not approve.

it is this one www.laredoute.co.uk/ppdp/prod-350212571.aspx?docid=210021#shoppingtool=treestructureflyout&srt=noSorting&facets=colourfamily*jaune&shoppingtool=treestructureflyout[/quote]
Whatever you decide, I am sorry for your loss. I'm sure your dad will like the dress. I have a silly white hat which dad used to love. I will never get rid of it!

[FourTurnings]

I love a random splurge! I’m keen on the ‘I’ve had two glasses of wine and am in a great mood’ splurge. Also love Hush and your selection sounds good.

@tinseloatcake I’m very sorry for your loss. I hope your yellow dress brings you joy and fond memories. X

[osbertthesyrianhamster]

I did this split across Seasalt and M&S.

I’m so sorry for your loss. Yellow is a beautiful colour.

[Retailqueenie]

Awaiting the arrival of the pink camo stretch shorts, pale camo tee (NOT to be worn together obvs) & a black halter neck vest top....

I have sent back a load of Zara stuff recently, poor sizing, crap fit. Hoping this delivery doesn’t disappoint too... 🙏
