Toasties - Springing on ...

[Laska2Meryls]

Hello ... Here is another thread for sharing our love of Toast.

Looking forward to some lighter and brighter days and wearing spring colours ..

Yeah, I just got an email out of the blue about 18 months ago welcoming me to kindred. I’ve been circumspect this sale though. Decided as there hadn’t been much I’d lusted after at full price that must mean I shouldn’t buy at sale either. Did get the hazel wool/cashmere jumper though

I have finally been granted access to the sale!
Does anyone have this cardigan? www.toa.st/collections/sale/products/wool-cotton-aran-cardigan-fern

I love the colour, but wonder if it is quite short? thanks

I see there are some new non-sale things too. Just a few, but some nice looking balloon trousers in a lovely dark green (which thankfully will not suit me), and a fab brown utility cotton canvas jacket. Must stop looking!

Have anyone’s sale purchases arrived? I haven’t even got a dispatch note for mine yet ☹️

@ScottishMouse oh yes! That new jacket looks like a bigger version of this one www.toa.st/collections/womens-coats-jackets/products/cotton-linen-twill-jacket-montella

Excuse the absolute state of me, my room and my mirror!!
I didn't even take off my scrubs trousers before trying on!
Anyway, verdict is:
Chambray circle top is going back. The cuffs are too tight and the button on the back has been sewn into the inside by mistake. If I had loved it I would have just fixed that, but it's not nice enough to keep

The vine dress- I do love it, but I think I'm too pale and so the pale background of the dress doesn't suit me.

The orange dress- slightly tight on the bust but I love it!! It's a keeper.

The red jacket. I love this. It's still expensive and I don't know where I'll wear it but I love it!

The chambray top

Yay @AFingerofFudge , love seeing everyone’s purchases. I have that orange dress, and though I haven’t worn it loads (and it’s now a wee bit tight… need to sort that!), I love it. I love the red jacket on you too.

It does @Snowyowl78 . I’m hoping it is a heavier fabric though, and that the sleeves are not too long. That was my problem with the one you linked to, the sleeves were too wide and long for me, and couldn’t really be folded over.

Ooo I have ordered that red jacket Finger it looks so good on you, cant wait to get mine !
... excited ...

@ScottishMouse they are a bit wide, I have it and I’ve hung into it for ages as I thought I’d return it but I’m prob keeping it now. But now I want th new one too!

@TheChattyRat please let me know what the gingham dress is like. Have not purchased as still quite a lot of money. And now out of stock in an 8...... perhaps a 10 would be ok, I'm just not sure.

@AFingerofFudge , i love the vine dress on you! Iknow you're not keeping it but seeing it on you makes me think i should have given it a go, I'm similarly pale. I also love the red jacket on you!

Drat, that vine dress is sold out. I shall keep an Eagle eye on returns. Did you get your usual toast dress size @AFingerofFudge ?

The colour of that orange dress is stunning, can't wait to see what i think of it myself. I saw that reviews said it was more fitted but i sized down thinking it would be like the others. Ah well. We shall see!

Toast sale pages are now accessible to us non-Kindred underlings.

In non-Toast news, I keep seeing people in real life wearing this green geometric print dress from Zara and it looks lovely (better than in the photos). It's quite baggy in style and 100% cotton, so might interest the Toastistas:

So happy to see the the largo jumpsuit back in sale that I missed out on last year. Nabbed an 8 and hoping that it fits perfectly!
I still have my eyes on the ecru cotton smock dress and slate sailor dress- but it's the middle of winter and I'm sure something else will pop up that I want that I can actually wear now.

We'll see how long I go before I cave...

@AFingerofFudge - the red jacket looks fabulous. I, like@Laska2Meryls, am even more eagerly anticipating the arrival of mine.

Finally got a dispatch email. I’m guessing I won’t see my sale purchases until next week now. ☹️

my stuff is arriving tomorrow. I wonder why they never have a mens sale, I had my eye on a few things but they have never had one. I don’t get the impression the menswear is flying out the door either.

Also got a dispatch email for my sale order, the Japanese linen trousers, fracap sandals and a couple of linen sundresses, hoping they may arrive tomorrow [optimistic]

Thanks everyone for the positive feedback.
@dudsville yes I ordered a 14 and it is fairly true to size. Again the bust area is a tad snug, but it fits everywhere else.

Ive still not had mine dispatched. Then again, ive had no email and its turned up in the past.

I wonder that to @Snowyowl78 , i would have bought some jumpers.

Thanks @AFingerofFudge !
