An opportunity to discuss styling all those clothes we have on temporary loan.

I like the yellow crepe dress but agree it might not suit a bust.

The duffle is a mind blowing price.

I would like a new colour in Alix’s.

Yikes £695 for the duffel! The winter coat I bought in the sale was originally about £600 then they ended up selling it for under £300

Snowyowl78 · 02/08/2023 16:14

Correction, it was over £300!

Stravaig · 02/08/2023 16:23

Good grief, that £695 duffel coat is only 43% wool!!!

Countmeout · 02/08/2023 16:28

Ah but it’s probably wool from a breed of native yak tended by mushroom picking fairy folk on the organic hills of Tibetan hillside and harvested by hand by the light of a full moon @Stravaig

Stravaig · 02/08/2023 16:28

🤣

Dyed workwear jacket. Trying to find things it now goes with as I don’t actually wear much black since stopping work 🙄 don’t know why image is sensitive.
I was so pleased I didn’t have to change buttons.

@Countmeout - that jacket looks great! I see the ecru trousers have disappeared from the site altogether which is disappointing - didn't realise they had no pockets though - that's an actual crime in my books! The indigo ones look very much like the dutch{?} something trousers from the Carrier Company - I don't like them as much - question for those who have the ecru: Were you able to turn them up a little? They'd be full length on me which would spoil them

faustina · 02/08/2023 16:46

.. just went off to look at the duffel coat - at least it's half wool half cotton - not some horrible polyester mix. It does look an awful lot like one they had at Marks and Spencer last year - will try to find a pic

neveradullmoment99 · 02/08/2023 16:58

There prices are shooting up! The price of that duffel coat is really ridiculous. There are dearer than Gloverall. Think they are 100% wool.

Laska2Meryls · 02/08/2023 17:09

The ecru ones do have pockets @faustina .. it would indeed be a crime otherwise.. but it looks like the new ones have pockets also on the legs which I am not sure of .. Anyway I will report back when they arrive..

Laska2Meryls · 02/08/2023 17:10

@Countmeout that jacket looks really good.... hope that you find it more useful now

Ooh there’s lots of lovely new mens stuff, I think I prefer it to the women’s!

Laska2Meryls · 02/08/2023 17:14

@neveradullmoment99 No, M in the ecru still ankle length on me ..
But I really love them ... definitely keeping ( even if navy are more practical) .... everything about them is just great.. ( well for me anyway) just love the fabric, the cut...

Alpacasoft · 02/08/2023 17:26

Some lovely dresses .
While looking at tops I spotted this skirt-have I missed it or is it new?

The fabrics are better, no viscose, and the men's wool coats are pure wool.

Snowyowl78 · 02/08/2023 12:50

@Countmeout they are lovely, I do like a bright blue!

The blue one is gorgeous. I now want the olive, navy and charcoal ones. Toast is going to bankrupt me.

Stoic123 · 02/08/2023 18:01

Theteapotsbrokenspout · 02/08/2023 14:58

They don't look quite as nice though. I wonder why they didn't stick to the same material and design for the navy ones.

Yes - the material is different and they are made in different countries.

Stoic123 · 02/08/2023 18:03

neveradullmoment99 · 02/08/2023 13:07

Maeve dress Is here. Lot thinner than I expected but the print is gorgeous. I could have sized down on the bust ( right between 2 sizes here) There is a little dpace under the arm but not that much to return for a 12.

Looks lovely on you!

Countmeout · 02/08/2023 18:12

Love the Maeve dress on @neveradullmoment99 . Think it may go on my sale list.

The men’s full length coat is cheaper than the duffle and 100% wool. That’s dreadful.

faustina · 02/08/2023 18:20

@Stoic123 - oh yes they are - thank you! I will keep a beady eye out for returns

I love that men's raglan coat!

New in the last drop. They’re culottes I think though. I love them, but they are too pricey to consider at the moment.

Heading out to meet a friend in a second Toast outfit of the day - sleeveless denim dress (again! love it!) over black boatneck tee (both this sale), accessorised with saucony trainers, green floral silk scarf (from a previous sale), and a Lizzy Disney leather cuff that Toast did a few years back.
