That’s where I got mine @NoCureForLove. Great wee shop, and next door to the Edinburgh Toast!

NoCureForLove · 05/01/2022 21:57

I'm coming to Edinburgh!

Ooh, loving the jumper appreciation. I'm glad to have another stockist to stalk. I really want the dark or mid green fair isle jumper (not cardigan) but it's always sold out in my size. I shall stalk Dicks!

The Brora sale is live for those of you who are interested

Laska2Meryls · 06/01/2022 09:26

Thanks Savvy, I picked up the fair isle cardigan that I wanted ..

brogueish · 06/01/2022 10:25

Loving reading about everyone’s purchases and thoughts. Great tip on the Harleys too, thank you.

Well my order finally arrived. I placed it on the 30th so not that long given the time of year, but it feels like it’s been ages!

The green Aran cardigan. Love the colour, fabric, weight, knit, style - but I feel a Small would have been a better fit, and I veer towards oversized things. The Shetland wool fair isle (also M) looks amazing, the pattern and colours are beautiful. But. The sleeves are weirdly slim and the fabric is a little rough. So that’s definitely going back. The cardi though…I need to do a big try on and see what it works with I think.

NoCureForLove · 06/01/2022 10:41

Reporting in...

Silk and cotton pj shirt a keeper. Lovely pattern and great with denim. Embroidered pj shirt lovely and great colour but cut much smaller than most Toast shirts. Have reordered a size bigger as want to wear a jumper under it.

Waiting on vibrant check dress and shetland fair isle and sort of hoping I don't live both!

Today I’m wearing a chalk needle cord dress I bought in the dag end of the JL sale in the summer. Every time I wear needle cord I wonder why I forget how much I love it as a fabric. So now wondering if I should have a second one Grin. Wearing with fleece tights and Brasher brown leather boots and a jaunty ( 🤣 ) pop of colour round my neck.

Gonegrey31 · 06/01/2022 12:10

Ilovecherries I have the needle cord dress in the golden syrup colour and have worn it so much over the past few months. I’ve never had so many compliments about a Toast dress, the colour is gorgeous. Worthy considering ?

That’s the one I’m swithering about. I love the name apart from anything else.

My parcel arrived
All keepers

TerrierOrTerror · 06/01/2022 13:10

My parcel is at our local delivery office, rather excited for a trying on session tonight. I've listed after Toast items for a while but never tried them. I've got a mix of sale and full priced bits so hoping some of it will go back!

dudsville · 06/01/2022 14:04

Hm, I recieved my arran cardigan, I bought a large and think I needed a medium. Not sure whether to keep it or not as it is lovely... . I will wait and see as it's sold out so I can't exchange it.

On the back of buying two long sleeved striped tees I also bought the vest and shorter sleeved tops, but they've both been returned as they were not equally lovely. That's me done now!

dudsville · 06/01/2022 14:14

I've just reminded myself of hte price, so I think it will be going back. Shame!

faustina · 06/01/2022 14:15

My things are still in Swansea!!! Very frustrating. @TerrierOrTerror do come back and tell us how you get on with your order - what's in it?

Everything in the Kin sale has been further reduced and I've ordered the gilet to try. Does anyone have it?

AFingerofFudge · 06/01/2022 14:26

I have had limited success with the sale. It doesn't help that I've had a hip injury for the last couple of months, haven't been able to exercise as I normally do, adding in the December excess of food ("f*ck it, it's Christmas" seems to have been my motto throughout December and into the New Year ) and so am feeling rather hefty at the moment.
I couldn't keep the Orange Oxford dress as it was too tight around the bust. I also sent back the blue berry gown which was lovely but enormous. I did keep the 2 square scarves in the hope they might perk up a couple of outfits!
I am waiting on the Apple green cardigan too, which I have ordered in the medium. @dudsville I will let you know if I think I need a large and then we could possibly swap?

AmethystMoonShine · 06/01/2022 15:51

My orders finally arrived from 30th. Keeping the ditsy print easy dress, surprisingly flattering and will be fab for when the weather warms up. The now infamous apple green aran cardigan is sooooo a keeper, I love it! In a M it's generous and snuggly and just the right length.
Then the vibrant check cotton dress needs an iron before I can figure out if it looks nice - it was so crumpled when I tried it on it sticks out all over the place. That will need to wait until tomorrow as I'm working all evening. Just waiting on the sea foam bandana, which was a cheeky little order the other evening.

dudsville · 06/01/2022 16:24

@AFingerofFudge, I had the cream one, otherwise I would have been up for a swap - I considered asking but was too embarrassed! Anyway, it's too late now as I went to the post office straight away.

Theteapotsbrokenspout · 06/01/2022 16:28

My floral pj shirt arrived and it’s lovely , not one for the cold weather though. I ordered the 10 and 12 just in case, but the 10 is plenty big enough.
Just waiting for the pintuck skirt in slate now.

NoCureForLove · 06/01/2022 16:39

My shetland fair isle jumper in medium is going back if anyone is on the look out - too wide and background colour not flattering on me - but is beautiful otherwise Smile

Vibrant check dress is definitely quirky but I like it!

Try this if you don’t mind preloved. www.ebay.co.uk/itm/144354701272?hash=item219c35efd8:g:skkAAOSwOnFh0aUe

After vowing to kill my Toast habit once and for all, I’ve bought the frill collar poplin dress and I love it. Even with all the Christmas lard on my arse I sized down.

I had the vibrant check cotton dress too. Love it It’s been on my wish list for a long time
Nanasueathome · 06/01/2022 16:59

I’ve still got my eye on the sale
At the moment I’m not sure if I need the Christmas Hamper or not

Stoic123 · 06/01/2022 17:28

Getting envy pangs about the vibrant check cotton dress but simply could not justify that one or the Bud Check dress which I also liked the look of.

Two pairs of socks (last sale purchase) arrived. The yellow herringbone pair is particulaly nice so I have just ordered another pair for part of a friend's birthday present....so the two pairs weren't the last sale purchase after all.

dudsville · 06/01/2022 17:34

@blossomtoes, Thanks so much! I don't mind pre-loved, but I do have a fear of ebay having dipped my toe in and been burnt. Someone in my local charity hopefully got a thrill of a toast dress!
