Both of my ordes have dispatched now as well 😁

Stoic123 · 24/03/2023 14:38

All my orders (x3) despatched with the first one arriving tomorrow by Royal Mail. No high demand items like the pinafore dress were included though.

I remember the Buffalo Check from a styling video- thought it look great.

I also have the Seasalt crossover aprons - one in a heavy denim (gardening) and another in a sage green linen (kitchen) , they're fab and much cheaper. In fact I got mine 3 for 2 as well and gave the third as a gift.

Dee1224 · 24/03/2023 15:17

@AmethystMoonShine and @neveradullmoment99 now I want a Seasalt apron too! I paid £34 for my blue Toast linen one, but wouldn’t have paid any more for it.

faustina · 24/03/2023 15:35

Adding my name to the list of Seasalt apron owners - mine's blue and I love it! I have another conventionally fastening red one which is nice but I prefer the over the head Seasalt one - it's very sturdy and washes well

If anyone else is thinking of buying the Blundstone lug boots - the ones from Toast arrived yesterday, looked a bit scuffed and weren't olive with matching pulls, they were just bog standard rustic brown that you can buy anywhere- so I sent them back and ordered elsewhere for much cheaper - they arrived today and are absolutely beautiful - like walking on air. I had to get a five which is a whole size smaller than my usual boot size

Noeggsontoast · 24/03/2023 17:00

Another one who loves their Seasalt apron. Mine is red and used for dog bathing and grooming every single Sunday.

OftenOrange · 24/03/2023 17:12

Looking forward to reports once the parcels arrive!
Has anyone bought or tried the duffel coat?
I know I’d wear it a lot but it doesn’t feel like the exciting buy the forest green Melton ( which I have no need or space for)

Dee1224 · 24/03/2023 18:39

I want the duffel coat so much but can’t justify it even at sale price 🙃

dudsville · 24/03/2023 18:43

I can't justify any of my spending! But i do keep it to Toast and to their sales, and then I go all out! I said this last time though, i can't keep on at this pace. I have so many beautiful things and it's hard to wear them all. It doesn't help that since the pandemic, unless a change is needed i wear the same outfit several days running!

Saurus72 · 24/03/2023 19:18

Same @dudsville . I used to need sooo many work clothes, shoes and bags. Now I go to the office once or rarely twice a week and it feels really nice to dress up. Wfh this week I wore the same Toast boatneck t shirt and linen trousers (plus zhuszhy socks) 3 days in a row! I’m now going to more yoga classes so I’m buying a few bits for that, but way less than before. So I’m bringing in some of my older Toast dresses to wear to work - mainly because I like them but also because it means I do feel as bad buying new dresses for weekends…

MiracleToast · 24/03/2023 19:31

I decided to try the bed linen as an extra order after the success of the ticking bedding in the previous sale. Thanks for whoever recommended them further upthread. I also recorded the copper blue pyjamas in a medium as I got worried the small I had already purchased might be too small and the sale would end before they arrived 🙃

Last years summer sale was so successful for me for most of the clothing I wear now. I don’t have many outfits but I wash and repeat and since it’s mostly toast it all goes together.

It’s nice to read about what you all have chosen in this sale and I look forward to arrivals coming in. Have a lovely weekend ♥️

OftenOrange · 24/03/2023 20:20

I bought the duffel coat because it’s something I will wear a lot, I used to have a smartItalian duffel which I loved so hoping the Toast one will have the same quiet luxury vibe.
I ordered the pea green nest cardi and also the citrus green tie neck one .
I definitely need some zingy coloured woolly ,lovely as my Toast jumpers are they are all earth colours .

Dee1224 · 24/03/2023 20:38

I know what you mean, @dudsville!

Firesideknitting · 24/03/2023 23:16

very excited I’ve had shipping email … must say I’m super impressed with the shipping speed … I’ve since ordered a few more bits and got hubby a couple of jumpers and jacket, as well as a sweet tank for a gift … hopefully items will arrive Tuesday/Wednesday

Countmeout · 25/03/2023 07:45

Looking forward to hearing about all the sale shopping. Mine is dispatched too but it will be Monday or Tuesday before it arrives.

Mine too. They dispatched quickly but not really moved!

No it seems to take them forever to get to actual PO . At least we know we’re getting them though I suppose.

TerrierOrTerror · 25/03/2023 09:52

Mine is scheduled for delivery on Monday.

applecatchers36 · 25/03/2023 10:13

Made two orders a few sizes of crepe dresses, a shirt and the Breton top that wasn't in the sale. One order has dispatched to be delivered Monday. Looking forward to hearing all the reports once the deliveries arrive!

SmaugMum · 25/03/2023 10:32

I have been sticking to my resolution of only buying things I really love in the sale so I haven’t been on here since January. I’ve ordered the Fracap Explorer boots in midnight blue which I’ve been covering since they appeared on the site, plus a crepe dress which is long enough to hide a multitude of sins in the summer months!

agnesmartin · 25/03/2023 10:34

Managed to snap up a black collared t-shirt in my size. Ordered it as soon as saw the sale post (thanks for the heads up) and that's just arrived today. Very pleased with purchase, will be useful and looks semi smart.

I also have the granddad shirt in that lovely blue, the fawn wide legged cotton trousers, fingerless gloves and a pair of socks coming. They should be arriving on Monday.

Dee1224 · 25/03/2023 11:48

@agnesmartin I was also eyeing up that blue shirt, so I would love to see a pic of it when it arrives.

I also wanted the collared t shirt in black but it was sold out by the time I got to checkout so I have ordered one in an orangey colour instead. Reviews of that colour were mixed and I haven’t had any success previously with Toast tops as they tend to not fit/don’t suit, but we shall see!

My orders are coming on Monday. I will be impressed if they actually appear 🤣

Snowyowl78 · 25/03/2023 12:06

I tried this today

https://www.toa.st/collections/womens-dresses/products/panelled-organic-indigo-denim-dress-indigo

it has rave reviews but I found it a bit of a stressful try on. It’s small in the upper half with small arm holes and a high neck and very fitted around the chest. I thought I may never get out of it again!

looked nice though, flattering. It was too small though obviously in my usual Toast size 12. I would try the 14 but I assume the neck would still be high and a bit stressful. Also might make the skirt bit too voluminous.

i’m just glad I’m not still wearing it.

🤣 @Snowyowl78 , what a panic that must have been!

Dee1224 · 25/03/2023 13:13

@Snowyowl78 - I got stuck in a dress once in Anthropologie- I thought I was going to cry🤣. I almost ordered the indigo dress, so thanks for the heads up on sizing.

Does anyone own this and can let me know if it’s oversized?
