There's a typo in my last post, I was trying to be funny, saying that we need to draw up a list of symptoms for the Illness that effects our thinking and purchasing habits re the sale. Still might not be funny, but my typo "assumption" is irksome.
@AFingerofFudge Finansially I took out a 0% interest card specifically for toast sales - I pay it off at the end of each sale. Mine was for 2 years.
@Snowyowl78, damn it, yes it is the linen shorts!
In other news, today I recieved the white linen boy tee I remember someone on here saying they love. It's a very nice tee but the white is so see through it's going back. I also recieved the clown collar Brushed Check Cotton Dress | Rich Olive. I woudl say the image on line doesn't do this dress justice re the colour, which is very easy on the eye if you like the muted woody greens, browns and a kind of minimal duck egg blue colouring. Also the brushed check description implies that it's for cooler weather but this is a vrey thin cotton, easily a summer dress. The silly collar would be easy to remove. This "easy" fit is more streamlined than other toast dresses. I still bought a size down from my high street size, but it is (gasp) slimming. So although I had planned to return I think this is actually a keeper. The sleeves rolled up to just below the elbow go with it's very casual look overall... so this is another item where I thought "absolutely not, looks ridiculous online", to putting it on and thinking it works well on me. The colouring isn't mine but I do own things outside of my colouring just because I like them and I'm ok with that.
