Oh, that link came out weird. Does it work?

Sooverthemill · 26/10/2021 21:01

@ScottishMouse yes it does. Thank you I have watched it. So much nicer in people than on the website. Several things I want now!

ScottishMouse · 26/10/2021 21:32

That’s the trouble with those videos @Sooverthemill!

ToastCosILoveIt · 27/10/2021 10:40

That latest styling video is exquisite and now I want more of Toast's clothes. I also caught up with the Jenny Garcia styling video: a bit of repetition with the Toast styling video but enjoyable just the same.

Hmm I only really liked the yellow lace yoke sweater in the video this time.. This is good because I have kept the denim jerkin and bought the chambray Oxford shirt in a smaller size .
I need to stop buying!

AmethystMoonShine · 27/10/2021 16:14

Similar here @Laska2Meryls I’m not left desperate for anything. Probably because I have plenty already Blush
My best toast purchase by far recently is my Sheepskin Mole Hotwater bottle cover. I love it!

agnesmartin · 27/10/2021 16:56

I have the sheepskin hot water bottle cover too amethystmoonshine I love it so much, that I've bought two more as gifts for some of my favourite people!

I wasn't too enthused by anything in the styling video either ... am going to do my best to sit on my hands until the sales.

Greenfinches · 27/10/2021 17:16

I thought Nikki looked very elegant in the wide-leg cropped denim trousers. I like that style but it doesn’t quite work on me as I’m two inches taller than her, with long legs and a short torso, and there’s just too much of a gap between the hem of the trousers and the top of my ankle boots. In fact I have ordered and returned so many Toast trousers and jeans lately that I’ve decided to forget about them and base my wardrobe around my two denim pinafore dresses.

faustina · 27/10/2021 17:19

The only thing I'd like to see on an actual person at the moment is the new corduroy trousers in earth - so I was sad they didn't include them in the styling video - also the Dhalia coloured donegal jumper which I think looks a bit too orange on the website. I don't suppose anyone's seen it in real life yet?

ToastCosILoveIt · 27/10/2021 21:18

I've cracked and made an order: the black denim pinafore jumpsuit which I have been eyeing for ages, the alix chanterelle check trousers thanks to the Jenny Garcia video and the scallop ruffle neck blouse in navy.

i tried the blue denim dungarees on over the summer but they didn't suit me and so I am hoping that the black denim jumpsuit will be better. I saw the chanterelle trousers in Cambridge Toast recently and thought they looked good but didn't try them on. However, they looked so fab on Jenny in the video that I couldn't resist. I already have a wool black and white alix pair from previous seasons so I know i can cope with wool trousers. The scallop ruffle neck blouse I did try on in Cambridge along with the dress version. I didn't like the shape of the dress and thought it a bit short but I also tried the blouse on which i loved but the 10 pulled very slightly on the chest and they were sold out in the 12. A random 12 popped back up on the website today so I grabbed it. I will report back when they arrive (scheduled for Friday as I ordered next day delivery but didn't order until this evening.

Is that this one Toast?

ilovecherries · 27/10/2021 21:28

I love the chanterelle trousers as well, but trying to decide if I’d risk washing them. I refuse to have anything dry clean only other than outerwear.

ilovecherries · 27/10/2021 21:29

Oops, I really am dressed in an embarrassment of Toast in that photo. I do usually try to mix it up a bit!

ToastCosILoveIt · 27/10/2021 21:35

Yes it is @ilovecherries, it looks fab on you! I am hoping to wear it with the denim jumpsuit and the denim pinafore from last spring (which I still haven't worn yet Blush).

Loving the jerkin with that shirt on you @ilovecherries! I sent my jerkin back eventually (again!), I was right the first time I ordered that I was in between sizes sadly.
But in happier news, I wore my new alpaca cable cardigan today over the black chalkboard dress from last year, and it was super comfy and cosy. I weirdly hardly ever wear the dress, I think because I don’t love to wear black, but I was reminded today how great it is.
I really like the trousers you’ve ordered @ToastCosILoveIt, they looked great on that Jenny Garcia styling video, but I can’t do wool trousers. Wish I could as sometimes the wool versions are the nicest.

Laska2Meryls · 28/10/2021 09:37

Im wearing triple Toast today.. Al8x blue striped trousers, the chambray Oxford shirt ( which I adore) and the denim jerkin..
Now that I have started to wear the jerkin , I seem to be putting it on every day.. so pleased that I stopped dithering about it . I think its going to be one of mt most worn Toast things..

faustina · 28/10/2021 17:15

These socks arrived today and they are so beautiful! I've also just ordered two sizes of the Earth corduroy trousers and the other denim dress ( the swingy one) on the grounds that I've hardly taken off the other. I saw someone on Instagram wearing the trousers and they looked too good not to try!

ilovecherries · 28/10/2021 17:37

I’m resisting the swing dress simply as I’ve convinced myself it’s a very similar silhouette to the navy cord kin dress from last winter which needs a lot of wear yet. But it looks gorgeous.

I adore Toast socks. I sneak a pair in with every order so I’ve built up a nice stash now. Although the cotton cashmere stripy ones were a bit disappointing. These blue ones look fab.

faustina · 28/10/2021 18:03

I bought another pair at the weekend from an actual shop - the trainer socks - but they didn't have the ones above. Apart from some quite nice Pringle ones I found at TK Maxx for wearing with Blundstones last year, that is my entire sock wardrobe!

I am justifying either the dress or the trousers because I sent the lovely check dress back to Kin. Every time I thought of wearing it, it felt too 'dressy' - and I've been having a proper wardrobe cull and ebaying lots

billydilly · 28/10/2021 18:41

Shout-out for the new yoke patterned alpaca jumper; it's divinely soft and utterly gorgeous.

faustina · 28/10/2021 19:32

@billydilly - would love to see a pic if you feel able? which colour did you get?

ilovecherries · 28/10/2021 19:32

Did you buy it billy? Which coloureay did you go for?

neveradullmoment99 · 28/10/2021 19:45

[quote faustina]@billydilly - would love to see a pic if you feel able? which colour did you get?[/quote]
Just what I was going to ask! What size did you buy versus your size?

faustina · 28/10/2021 21:15

@neveradullmoment99 - great minds etc!
