Toasties : Leafy walks and Winter woollies .. Autumn arrives!

[Laska2Meryls]

Here's a new thread for all things Toast..

Re. Kilver court, some of the stuff I’ve seen there but there is a lot (70%?) I haven’t so I’m not sure it’s all from there

Saurus have pmd you ...

Morning.

Because of the the sales approach and how quickly stuff goes, I have ended up with a ridiculous number of orders.

To the napkins, raglan slate needlecord, marl cardigan, loop back trousers and spice smock dress - I have added a sycamore needlecord shirt, Japanese trousers (was me who wanted last time) and Zadie dress as I missed out before. Also a couple of enamelware bits.

I have just added the Luna dress because of your comments. Hopeless!

About half will need to go back if I want to have central heating on this month...

Same here@Snowyowl78 . I have just looked at my charged and pending Toast credit card payments 😮( and nothing has arrived yet) ..
I suppose we could wear it all at once to keep warm 😂

Well I’ve just ordered one more - Alix fine stripe in a size smaller than I have and that brownish poplin lightweight jacket. No more!!!! I expect about 2/3rds to go back.

Is it this one Saurus? If so I have a 14 going ..

Sorry rubbish light here today again..

Very impressed with the sales shopping! I looked at a few things, realised they didn’t have my size in stock and all I was left with was a scarf! But they do seem to both be adding loads to the sale items list and it’s all still pricey.

@Laska2Meryls ah no it isn’t, it’s the khaki version of this denim one. Thanks v much anyway

I was pondering the Luna dress this morning (thanks to this thread), went to the gym, came back and it has gone! I was looking at the 12 but the reviews sugggest that it comes up big and I am a 12 so it probably would have looked too oversized....

I did order the japanese check trousers though in a small - hope they fit.

@Laska2Meryls , huge congratulations, I love the look of the peacoat: one for the sale for me if it goes in there.

I've already done 3 (small) orders but now am contemplating more now there's so many things on there!! 2 of my orders still haven't been despatched despite me doing them as soon as the sale appeared so I have no idea when they'll arrive.

@Laska2Meryls you look,fab, gorgeous forever pieces,

Ooh, lots to catch up on. @Laska2Meryls if it helps ease your mind I noticed that it's the same price I paid for my Lys from a Toast sale, not JL which undoubtedly would have reduced it further. I would say this top gets so much wear, it's oddly versatile.

I'm enjoying the japanese trouser love, hope you both enjoy them! I spent a lot of the summer in them.

@Countmeout I agree, I think it's interesting to see where my interest has been maintained over years, but also what changes. Some things I really wanted previously I'm now content to see in a sale and not order, perhaps because I've since tried something else in that material or learned that the shape doesn't suit me. My only concern withthe old stuff is sizing. Clearly recent trends have shifted things and what was a 12 or medium 5 years ago is different today.

I'm off to google the luna dress...

Disappointed with sale as mainly rehashing from previous sales. Bought Fracap Nikki sandals. Am kindred member so free postage. Ordered the Cheaney loafers last night but charged postage, Still very good deal as paying only slightly more for them than Cheaneys charge for a standard refurbishment

So jealous that you all are able to order so freely given your free returns!

They seem to have fixed the bug now and all the sale items show up when you select international shipping- but alas, most of the items I wanted have sold out in my size.

I ended up buying the Aster floral dress from a few seasons ago that I missed (though a size larger than normal, hoping it'll look ok oversized!), and the beige cotton canvas overalls that always seem to pop back into sale. I have the navy version of it that I always wear and love, so that wasn't as much of a gamble.

That would be hard for me to sit and watch @happysoju ! Would time a holiday to coincide with a sale? That aster dress is really fab. How long do deliveries normally take to get to you?

My lovely mum, who is very ill, frail and housebound (I care for her) has bought me a Vale Circle dress for Christmas. I am so pleased to finally have this beauteous frock. Please, Toast, don’t cancel this order!

@dudsville It's surprisingly fast with DHL, usually it arrives within 4 days to New Zealand, I've even had a return processed in 3! But it also costs a hefty $45aud, and $40aud to return- so I have to be very sure with all my purchases.

I suppose that's to be expected when I'm living on an island on the other side of the globe!

@SmaugMum How lovely of your mum, it's a beautiful dress for sure! I hope she feels better soon, and that the dress lifts your spirits- I know how hard it is when someone close falls ill. Wishing her the best of health 💛

a couple more things added I think. Definitely a basket I haven't seen before (fruit picking one)

Lovely basket but OOS already

Wow that is fast @happysoju , but yes, ican see that you want to be more certain about your purchases!

How lovely of your poor mum @SmaugMum .

I've not seen anything else in interested in. I was tempted by the almafi dress and am glad it has sold out, I think the sale price is still a lot to pay, even though the fabric is beautiful.

Another hopeless case here; just found the thread and am so happy there are others trying unsuccessfully to be sensible in the Toast sale!
Just placed my third order ( cute raffia crossbody bag and painted check sun top) after seeing the recent slew of added products while on the bus….

Has anyone got their order yet. Hoping to live vicariously through yours while I wait. My coat has eventually been dispatched - was waiting nervously for a cancellation but it’s now on its way.

I've got an email from RM saying I've got a delivery today. Glad for you that you got confirmation of your coat order @Countmeout !
