A less pricy alternative to this boiler/jump suit?

Has anyone seen a typing similar (ideally soft cord) to this for less money? I really love it but can't afford £100+ for one item of clothing 😢

Ooh. It's really nice. I want one too.
I'd look on ebay & siimilar sites.

KirstenBlest · 11/09/2021 14:06

I don't think it's cord. Will keep looking

KirstenBlest · 11/09/2021 14:10

cheap
short sleeves

Try New Look or Primark for a budget version.
Finisterre or Toast if you want quality.

I have a Lucy & Yak cotton one and it's great but not cord.

Most of the others seem to have a waist band 😔, I like the hush one as it hasn't got one, im short with a large bottom and I think the waist band would make my bottom look huge and my waist too high.

Mew???

£48, cord and baggier, but I have the linen version and love it.

There's a hush one one ebay and a cord L&Y one.
Urban Outfitters could be worth a try.

KirstenBlest · 11/09/2021 14:32

That one is nice too @Rina66. Beautiful colour.

Just found the one on eBay, it’s a size too small which is a shame or I would have bought it.

Rina66 love it ! How tall are you ish please ? I am onlt 5 foot so i wonder if i wd have a too low crot h in that tho its fab ( toast dungarees same .. i look like ive got a low nappy on !)

KirstenBlest · 11/09/2021 19:45

Hadn't thought of that. It is very nice and would probably fit me, but I already have 2 boilersuits, although not a cord one, but I have some lovely Gap cord dungarees and several pairs of dungarees and pinafores

Lovemusic33 · 11/09/2021 19:57

I’m 5”3 or slightly under. I have bit the bullet and ordered using a referral code from another thread so got £20 off. If it fits I will be spending all winter in it 🤣, it’s the most I’ve spent on a item of clothing.

Badgerbonce · 11/09/2021 20:19

Lovemusic33 fab !! What is the referal code please if you dont mind. ?
You could wear it all winter and if it fades thwn it can be dyed again if cotton cord .

Lovemusic33 · 11/09/2021 20:39

I’m trying to work out if I can give a code. There’s a thread a few pages down where people have put referral codes. If I get sent one I’m happy to share it, it gives new customers £20 off so I got the boiler suit for £90.

I don't get it! I think I must be really unstylish but surely it's not flattering as it does actually look like a mechanic's workwear

KirstenBlest · 11/09/2021 20:45

I have a proper boilersuit and it doesn't look like the one OP has ordered.
Not everyone likes the same thing.

I like dungarees, jumpsuits and pinafores because the one colour from neck to hem is lengthening and I'm not tall. (slightly taller than OP but not long legged). The one OP has ordered IMO looks effortlessly stylish and it's a great colour.

If OP wears it all winter, on a price per wear basis it won't be expensive.

sleepyhoglet · 11/09/2021 20:56

Although it does look quite comfy and handy for breastfeeding! I just don't know that I could pull it off.

Lovemusic33 · 11/09/2021 21:39

I prefer comfort over looking flattering 🤣, I mainly live in dungarees (I’m wearing fun and fly cord dungarees at the moment), they are comfy and fun. I do t wear dresses, I rarely wear make up so I’m not going for the flattering look 😬. I like the idea of all in one outfit, it means I don’t have to faff around trying to match trousers with a top.

I’m really excited and can’t wait for it to arrive, I just hope it fits and isn’t too long in the body.
