Well I did order from Toast and its still unfulfilled. Ordered on 16th so still time.but really slow. Most places dispatch next day🙄
I actually can see them taking forever.

@Laska2Meryls

Auldfox They have for me also! What dress did you buy?
I bought the pink check dress, it’s just my colour. It’s probably too long for me. Brushstroke dress looks great on you!
AuldFox · 19/06/2021 10:15

I’m going to a Toast shop tomorrow, see what I can snaffle.

Laska2Meryls · 19/06/2021 13:19

I am surprised at just how much they have still in the sale 2 days on ...

For anyone who placed a sale order and hasn’t yet received any notification of dispatch…my order that I placed on Wednesday just arrived, and I had heard nothing since the order confirmation.
Still to open and try on what’s inside.

applecatchers36 · 19/06/2021 13:43

Thanks Scottish Mouse that's helpful 👍

SmaugMum · 19/06/2021 14:12

Not been on here for ages, lovely to see the chat is still going (I was a regular in the olden days when I was previously known as Moominmammaatsea).

Just to echo ScottishMouse, I placed a sale order on Wednesday and my parcel (Cotton Oxford dress in Chambray) arrived this morning, without any prior dispatch email. I’m delighted as I regretted not ordering this dress last summer and it was a bargainous £55.

I’ve also ordered a polka dot nightdress, a silk scarf and the big leaf print dress (it’s name currently escapes me, sorry).

I was thrilled to have been sent a Kindred gift of furoshiki wrapping cloths in my package today; a lovely kindness from Toast that is much appreciated as my beloved dad died unexpectedly last week.

It’s nice to be back among old friends. Smile

AuldFox · 19/06/2021 15:28

Very sorry to hear about your father @SmaugMum
Hope the Toast items bring you some joy and comfort during this time Flowers

ScottishMouse · 19/06/2021 15:40

@SmaugMum, very sorry to hear your sad news.
That dress is a beauty. I still regret returning it last year. Missed my size this time around.
My parcel included the ikat wrap jacket from last summer, which is fab: www.toa.st/collections/sale/products/ikat-check-wide-sleeve-wrap-jacket-multi
And the blue stripe stubby cotton long sleeve tee: www.toa.st/collections/sale/products/stripe-slubby-cotton-tee-slate-bright-blue
Does anyone have this, and has it shrunk any on washing? Dithering over which size to keep.
I also ordered the Echo check bag, but never checked the measurements, and it is so big I could almost climb into it myself! So that’s going back.

neveradullmoment99 · 19/06/2021 18:51

You can tuck the sides in of that bag and it looks great. I think that's what's been done here

neveradullmoment99 · 19/06/2021 18:52

Or maybe its a similar bag?

neveradullmoment99 · 19/06/2021 18:52

Such gorgeous colours

ScottishMouse · 19/06/2021 19:49

@neveradullmoment99, yes, that’s the one! Now you are tempting me to give it another look. Which I really shouldn’t as I didn’t have money to spend in the first place.
I seem to have become a pattern person recently, having always stuck to plain colours in clothes and accessories. I recently scored two great Toast finds on ebay - a striped wrap jacket (same style as the ikat one I juat got in the sale), and a lovely wine coloured ikat patterned furoshiki bag, which when knotted at the very ends fit neatly over the shoulder. So pleased with both, and with the ikat jacket that came today, but putting outfits together becomes much trickier when everything isn’t just navy, grey and white! Your tips would be appreciated!

Sooverthemill · 19/06/2021 20:33

I ordered something on 15/6 and checking online it is showing as 'unfulfilled'. Any idea what that means? Sounds ominous to me!

ScottishMouse · 19/06/2021 20:45

@Sooverthemill, I think that usually means it has yet to dispatch. But I just checked my account and the order I received today also says Unfulfilled. So it could well be on its way to you.

Sooverthemill · 20/06/2021 09:04

@ScottishMouse thank you! Fingers crossed

goldpendant · 20/06/2021 11:20

Hi everyone,

An oldie here from the first threads! I've just ordered the slate and olive linen jumpsuits, and the place check dress, all in sale! I say I won't keep them all.... at least that's what I've told DH Grin

AuldFox · 20/06/2021 16:25

For anyone wishing to venture into a Toast shop, don’t bother. I went to two in London and neither had any sale items, or even any full price items I wanted to try on in my size. It seems size 6 or 16 were in stock but little else.

Oh dear, that doesn't sound good. Very disappointing. I'm nowhere near one but annoying you ventured to fing nothing on sale! Weird!
AuldFox · 20/06/2021 18:13

It was rubbish @neveradullmoment99
I would have thought that stocking sizes 8-12 would be most useful but they seriously thought that just having a few pieces to “check the cloth texture” was good enough for a shop. It’s not a museum, I wasn’t there just to stare Confused

A good styling video on Instagram from Jenny Sue Garcia - trying on a few of Toast's trousers as well as two or three tops.
