I bought two pairs of the Lucy and Yak cords today. I have to say they are very nice. Not as high waisted as the gabis ✅ and also a bit longer (also ✅). Downside is no belt loops. Overall really pleased with them. The green is a lovely colour. They are large though so even if you are at the very top of the dual sizing I’d go down.

Thanks @Snowyowl78 - sounds like it will be too short for me 😂 I have the opposite issue where I like dresses to be mid calf at least.

Good to know @ilovecherries

I really like quite a few lucy and yak things😃

Snowyowl78 · 28/10/2022 19:58

@TheChattyRat aw that’s a shame. That said there is a few inches of hem on it, maybe you could let it down?

Popping in to say there's a sample sale next week in London which I'm thinking of going to - it includes Blundstone, YMC and Folk - just off Brick Lane. You have to book with this link:

Like a few of you, I've not been feeling too much love recently to the Toast offerings. Bought nothing in the last sale and my only purchase has been the cornflower blue fairisle which is a perfect match to my cord culottes purchased a few seasons ago and a bread bag. I am pleased though as today I've finished my Toast inspired upcycled jumper to go with my mineral blue cords.

Well done! You are very talented! It is beautiful :)

@Noeggsontoast - that is lovely! That wonderful, vivid blue especially. Well done!

faustina · 30/10/2022 20:14

Oh and I nearly forgot - the cos green coat suddenly popped back in stock so I've ordered it just in case it's the coat of dreams!

AmethystMoonShine · 30/10/2022 20:15

Love that @Noeggsontoast

Noeggsontoast · 30/10/2022 20:27

@neveradullmoment99 @applecatchers36 @dudsville thank you, you're all too kind. I've not embroidered for ages, but it was nice and relaxing and the stitches not too difficult. I could pick it up and do 30mins here and there. I loved that jumper as soon as I saw it, but the original colour was a big, big no for my complexion. I watched the video this week and the lofty fairisle was the only thing that spoke to me but too similar to the one I bought last year to make me want to purchase.

Noeggsontoast · 30/10/2022 20:33

@AmethystMoonShine thank you @faustina thank you, I love that green coat, so hope it's the coat of your dreams.

That’s absolutely lovely. It’s the kind of jumper that makes me run after people asking where they bought it.

mizu · 31/10/2022 07:53

Oh that cornflower jumper is gorgeous.

Stoic123 · 31/10/2022 07:58

@Noeggsontoast - that jumper is brilliant. Very envious of your talent!

Sooverthemill · 01/11/2022 09:27

Just as a PSA I've discovered Lanx on another thread and immediately knew the Toasties would want to know about them here British shoes and boots properly made.

faustina · 01/11/2022 13:55

They look nice @Sooverthemill - thank you! It's certainly getting towards boot weather here

faustina · 01/11/2022 16:06

there's an online archive sale on at YMC - I just bought some lovely trousers!

here

dudsville · 01/11/2022 20:19

I just had a look @faustina! Nearly bought a couple of tops but managed to walk away. Which trousers did you buy?

faustina · 01/11/2022 20:24

@dudsville - there were some nice things weren't there? I bought these - but they'll have to be perfect for me to keep them - and if anyone else does buy anything be careful about their returns, as you only have a week to get a refund, after that it's another week for a credit note only

dudsville · 01/11/2022 20:53

I looked at those too, they do look great! Ithought they could have been shown off much better irl than the model does in the pic. I already have a pair of billowy denim trousers so was able to stand down!

faustina · 01/11/2022 21:13

The model isn't great, but don't you think the pics are generally really helpful, in a way that Toast totally isn't? I have some lovely ecru Toast carpenter jeans but no denim ones in a similar style, so I thought worth a go for that price!
