hm, do the tags sewn into the two dresses agree that they're XL and L @BettinaInDenmark ?

I’ve had that a few times - as if the wrong swing tag has been used/switched. I have it coming in a medium, I’m hoping that’s big enough as I thought the striped linen sundress was too tight on the bust in an L, but far too big everywhere else.

Noeggsontoast · 17/07/2023 12:17

A big restock including some previous seasons is on the website

AFingerofFudge · 17/07/2023 12:18

There's been a massive restock of sale stuff- just noticed it. Am going in!!

faustina · 17/07/2023 12:37

wow - there is a LOT more on the site now

BettinaInDenmark · 17/07/2023 12:38

@dudsville Yes, according to both the sewn-in and the hang-tags they are L and XL. So there must be quite a gap from one size to the orher.
I am thinking that a wash on 60 C and tumble drying may be the way forward

I was just sitting down to scroll toast over my lunch, saw this, but you all are on it!

ScottishMouse · 17/07/2023 12:53

Wow, that is the biggest restock yet. Over 600 items of womenswear when I looked a wee while ago. The few things I might have bought haven’t reappeared, so thankfully no more orders for me

My Sturlini sandals arrived this morning. They are really beautifully made and the colour (a dark greeny brown) is great. But I’m not sure. They have a wide footbed, which it good for my wide feet, but looks a bit massive when on. And my feet squeak in them terribly (I have had this before with leather insoles), not sure if that will resolve. I need to consider carefully as they are not cheap.

ilovecherries · 17/07/2023 12:56

I’ve managed to replaced both pairs linen shorts so I’m glad about that. Not looking at anything else!

dudsville · 17/07/2023 13:07

Well, that was a huge drop into the sale. I'm trying a few old things just for fun.

I also recieved the Flat Front Denim Trousers today in clay. Thanks to the poster wo recommended them, posting the pic to catch you to say thanks! These are super flatering and exceptionally soft. I tried the dress in the same material but it's not a great colour for me and the shape is all wrong for me. The other thing I tried just for fun was the Tiered Space Check Linen Dress, and this dress is amazing, unexpectedly. The high neck is great for me and the fabric is beautiful and so swingy.

Nothing for me. A lot to look through but the couple of items I might have been tempted by from prior seasons did not come back in my size.

I was thinking the sale would end this week, seemed to be tailing off and then bam! Is this the final flourish?

NotAMinimalist1 · 17/07/2023 13:13

Oh gosh, this needs to stop now. I can’t cope. I have an Excel sheet just to manage my returns!! So of course I’ve bought the Slate version of the Cotton Linen Wrap dress. I was buying before my brain caught up because I have the Sahara yellow and adore it.

BettinaInDenmark · 17/07/2023 13:17

The items that could tempt me have luckily not come back in my size ;) I have already spent more in this Toast sale that in any before

NotAMinimalist1 · 17/07/2023 13:24

@BettinaInDenmark it’s a good job a lot of extra stuff that would tempt me is also out of stock. I too have spent more in this sale than any other.

faustina · 17/07/2023 13:29

I've ordered the raglan sleeve tee in carbon and then a linen ibig check shirt which I hadn't seen before. Does anyone have this? How is the fit? I have a S on the way (hopefully)
I reckon the sale keeps going on because the sizing is so haphazard

dudsville · 17/07/2023 13:31

The sale ends thursday - hard to see when we're so curious to see what has actually been added, but it's posted at the top.

Theteapotsbrokenspout · 17/07/2023 13:32

Thanks for the new thread @Laska2Meryls can’t believe I’m 6 pages behind.
That is quite a restock, sadly not the Dhal Mariner skirt in a 10, my order is still sitting unfulfilled since Friday. I have consoled myself by ordering a bandana, although I was tempted by some of the extra homeware.

dudsville · 17/07/2023 13:37

I expect some of this not to come through as all of them disapeared after ordering, but I'm trying the gingham linen top and jumpsuit both midnight/ecru, and another gingham linen jumpsuit blue/sand, and the check cotton cashmere shirt as I bought the trousers ealier in the sale, they feel like pure luxury.

faustina · 17/07/2023 13:42

@dudsville - yes, the big check shirt disappeared after I'd ordered. I think things are still being added though

Countmeout · 17/07/2023 14:01

I’ve resisted, it keeps crashing for me when I get to 549 anyway.

Thanks to whoever drew my attention to the Poppies dress. It arrived this morning. Great fit and value at £48. No brainier not to add it to my collection. I even have a jumper to wear over it in winter.

NotAMinimalist1 · 17/07/2023 14:07

@Theteapotsbrokenspout can I ask whether you sized down at all? I only ask because the Toast site suggested an 18 for me but I sized down to a 16. It was still too big and I now have a 14. Admittedly I am on the loosest buttons in the 14 whereas with the 16 I was on the tightest buttons, but it might give you more sizing options if the size down comes into stock and the 10 doesn’t get shipped.

Theteapotsbrokenspout · 17/07/2023 14:20

@NotAMinimalist1 Toast recommended the 10 but for some reason I ordered the 12, which is fine on the tightest buttons but I would like the 10 for comparison as I think the skirt looks better on the looser buttons.

I can’t actually understand why it wasn’t fulfilled on Friday as there looked to be lots of sizes available when I ordered it but they had mostly disappeared by Saturday.

NotAMinimalist1 · 17/07/2023 14:23

Yes, agreed. It does look better on the looser buttons. I ordered some things on Friday and I’ve not long had a shipping notification so they might be behind. Fingers crossed for you.

OftenOrange · 17/07/2023 14:40

Joining @Countmeout in ordering the Poppies Dress . I don’t wear florals but £48 and a love of yellow equals what the heck.and I also have a Toast woollie to take it into Winter .

dudsville · 17/07/2023 14:41

I added the jude cotton trousers in putty since I'm all about this colourway now!

I just tried on the Tiered Space Check Linen Dress again and just love it so much. I put a fair isle cardigan on with it really liked the look. Tried it with a jumper over it and didn't think that worked so much, though with the right jumper I could see it would look great as a skirt. I think this dress will be like the landscape for me. Also, it's so long, lower mid calf area that I think I can wear leggings under it
