What a shame @ilovecherries. Sometimes even retail therapy doesn’t work. 💐

ilovecherries · 26/08/2021 19:50

I bought the loden gabis, they are a lovely colour. I’m tempted by the concrete cords as well, I tried the cream ones last year, and they were just too bright for me. I already have the brown slate, and wore them a lot last year.

Thank you ScottishMouse that’s really helpful. Have you seen the fashion stylist called ThatsnotmyAge in a recent Instagram post wearing the Poplin PJ shirt ? She wore it over a grey skirt and looks fabulous in it .

ScottishMouse · 26/08/2021 20:47

I haven’t @Gonegrey31, but I sometimes have read her blog. I’m going to go look at her Instagram now. Thanks!

ScottishMouse · 26/08/2021 21:01

I have also discovered a fellow Toast fan on Instagram called buddycat66. Love her style! Maybe it’s one of you!!!

ToastCosILoveIt · 26/08/2021 21:24

@faustina, oh my goodness they have all sold out! They had a beige one and a navy one in all sizes this morning. I ordered the wide leather belt (www.uniqlo.com/uk/en/product/ines-leather-wide-belt-443971.html?dwvar_443971_color=COL09&dwvar_443971_size=SMA004&cgid=IDaccessories17004&hassubcat=false)

and the shirt dress in a medium and a large as uniqlo sizing is crazy, particularly their collaborations (www.uniqlo.com/uk/en/product/women-ines-viscose-printed-long-sleeved-shirt-dress-445627.html?dwvar_445627_color=COL69&dwvar_445627_size=SMA003&cgid=IDdresses16199&hassubcat=false).

I was tempted by the coats too but too hard to decide which style and size on line.

@ScottishMouse, great summary of your visit, really don't need another fairisle but now you have me wanting one.

She looks so good in the denim dress! I wish it looked like that on me. 😢
Gonegrey31 · 26/08/2021 22:01

ScottishMouse she looks amazing, such style , thanks for this suggestion!

ToastCosILoveIt · 26/08/2021 23:25

I bet buddycat66 is wondering why her number of followers has suddenly shot up Grin. I have been through all of her photos: some great Toast styling.

Countmeout · 27/08/2021 13:57

My needle cord yoke skirt has arrived. Very pleased with it. I sized down as I was worried about too many gathers. The elasticated waist it great and works sizing down.The website says it’s lined but it’s not. Will try to get a picture later.

My catalogue has arrived. A beautiful thing but not very helpful in seeing what clothes look like. No sign of the harlequin dress either - I so hope it’s coming!

neveradullmoment99 · 27/08/2021 14:26

I love seeing clothes on real people! Anyone else to follow who wears toast?

ToastCosILoveIt · 27/08/2021 14:29

Who on earth can have got that Harlequin dress if it isn't one of us?!

ScottishMouse · 27/08/2021 14:51

I’ve just been leading though the catalogue too. Some nice things which aren’t online yet, so I guess are coming in the next release.
There is an awful lot that’s not in the catalogue so I’m sure the harlequin dress is coming soon @Saurus72.

Saurus72 · 27/08/2021 14:54

Exactly @ToastCosILoveIt - if not us then who? Or whom maybe? Anyhoo, I’m checking the website everyday and I’m officially obsessed. Now I’ve seen it nothing else will do. I missed out on an ash green linen coat dress last summer and I still think longingly about it, I know I would have loved it (ordered it but was too big then my size sold out, but I know it was life changing). Can’t bear having another one that got away 😬

Saurus72 · 27/08/2021 14:54

Thanks for your reassurance @ScottishMouse 😊

ToastCosILoveIt · 27/08/2021 15:21

@Saurus72, the way you talk about the Harlequin dress adn the ash green linen dress is lovely. You truly deserve the Harlequin dress (along with me Grin) and I hope that you get it.

ToastCosILoveIt · 27/08/2021 15:22

PS, I haven't had a catalogue: what catalogue?!

bellaiceberg · 27/08/2021 15:34

I really wanted the blue/ink check crinkle dress but the reviews say it is massively oversized.
One reviewer got the XS and was a size 10, said it drowned her.
I am an 8 with small shoulders and no boobs so not going to risk it. Sad

It’s very pretty, but I need to see the neckline properly. Those dresses often have high slash necks and I’ve got three surgical scars across the front of my neck and the high slash is really uncomfortable. I already have two dresses to take to the alterations shop to get the neck lowered by a couple of inches.
Countmeout · 27/08/2021 16:58

I hope you all get the harlequin dress. The fairisle sweater was oos but is back, no more pennies this month though.
The Gabis are great @ilovecherries, concrete hasn’t appeared yet it can’t be oos either surely.
And indeed catalogue - what catalogue???

Totally envious @ilovecherries

bellaiceberg · 27/08/2021 17:24

I mentioned buddycat66 in a thread ai started today on dresses, etc, as I love her style!

don't think it went down well.

I wonder if us toasties are a curious and misunderstood minority Grin

Gonegrey31 · 27/08/2021 17:37

I haven’t had a catalogue either , boo
My Ruffle neck shirt has come and is going back . Buttoned up it is too constricting, and looks odd unbuttoned. Lovely blue colour though .
