styling conversation

@neveradullmoment99 sorry (went out) re the cord skirt . I bought the same size as I wear in Gabis, an 8. I am a good 10-12 in real life. Worth a try.

I have resisted the sale . Won’t promise to resist all weekend.

Think that is the dress?

@neveradullmoment99. Thank you so much - such a useful link.

Just came on to say I’d had a sale email. Also ordered the green jumpsuit and the piha dress to try, both in 12. Sounds like the jumpsuit has been snug for some on the boobs and the shirt style dresses often have neat top halves. So hopefully 12 for each is okay.

Oh I have ordered the Areca PJs after all ! decided that I would most likely wear the top after all..... FOMO....🙄🤦

I also like the bottoms of those PJs @Laska2Meryls. I wish the top was striped too!

Found you all!

Just bought the tiered poplin skirt I've been coveting at half price! Another new friend for Ruinous Coat!

I'm trying not to spend this month due to car insurance so will admire your purchases instead. I like the green jumpsuit a lot and also the poplin shirt dress - still v expensive and terrible reviews though. instead
laksa I did think of you when I saw pihu skirt on sale. Know you've had your eye on that for a while.

ok I've sent the kin dresses back. The denim smock would not have come out of the wardrobe due to shortness. Has anyone tried on the Toast Denim Workwear dress? I am thinking it's going to be that or the swingy one

Has anyone got or tried the sleeveless gathered dress? It has surprisingly good reviews. But without photos on a model, almost impossible to judge.

@faustina

Long time lurker here. I have the denim workwear dress and love it. I'm 5'7" tall and probably wouldn't recommend for anyone much shorter.

I'm a size 14 normally- got the 12 which is still quite loose (but the look I wanted). It's flattering and a nice mid-weight material. So easy to just fling on and go.

Welcome @Stoic123, good to get feedback on the dress. The website recommends a 12 for me but i am a 12 in real life so imagine I should be going for the 10.

@Stoic123 - thank you so much for the tip. I'm 5'4 but am going to try it on today all the same - along with the swingy one again - hoping to have a definite preference and not end up liking both (ruinous!)

Toast has me broke this month - ordered 3 items and they are all too lovely to leave back - this never usually happens! I think I need therapy!😁

So the long awaited Harlequin dress has just arrived and I'm very sorry to say it will be going back. I just didn't like the fabric enough in real life and found that the green colour washed me out. Style wise it is slightly kaftan like but I would have worked with a Navy T-shirt under it I think. What a shame! I'll have to wait for the next release of dresses. ....,has anyone tried the Mila Bolete dress and if so would you say that the fabric colour was accurately represented on the website?

What a shame @MrsCat1

I just bought the denim shirt dress! This is an 8. I can return if I change my mind - going to try properly when I get home. Do you think it looks too big?

@faustina

What a shame *@MrsCat1*

It looks lovely on you !

Looks lovely Faustina really suits you. As it is quite fitted on top doesn't matter that it's longer length.

That is totally fabulous on you. I had almost decided on the swing dress but having seen this, I’m dithering. Can’t have both.

Ive just been into a Toast shop and the first thing I did was feel the fabric of the Harlequin dress I really didnt like it either and it is very thin. Sorry folks I ignored the sale as nothing on my list. I bought the pintuck skirt in a 12 and the Ine check nightie in medium. I also bought some black baby cord to make a M&M skirt which is very similar to my Toast one.

@ilovecherries - I tried the swingy one - they didn't gave my size but have tried my size before- and I didn't like it half as much. This one falls really nicely

@TempleofZoom - I saw the mila bolete dress and the colour was like it is online. Didn't try it on though

I think you meant @MrsCat1
I also saw the dress in JL.
Fabric is the same colours but it didnt really grab me .
Would be interested in seeing it if someone tries it on
