Today I am wearing the new to me dress I picked up from the Circle rail earlier this week. I’m looking forward to styling it with some knitwear in cooler weather too.

Love that@ScottishMouse and it fits you so well. Is it older do you think to get a fit like that? In my vinted purchases i also got a third item, a shirt dress that i think must be older because it's a closer fit.

ScottishMouse · 25/08/2023 08:44

I think it’s at least a few years old @dudsville. It is definitely a neat fit because it is a 14, and most of my Toast shirt dresses are a 12, one is a 10. I almost didn’t try it on when I looked at the size, so glad I did.

ScottishMouse · 25/08/2023 08:48

Oh yes, that’s the one @MrsRadichio . The fit is better on her, mine is a touch too big on the shoulders, but I can live with that. I have an orange sweater that I might try with it having seen that styling, I wouldn’t have thought of it. My favourite Toast sweater of all time looks great with it - a navy wool fisherman rib round neck from a squillion years ago.

Lovely dress @ScottishMouse
Today I am wearing my new poetry dress.
Poetry - V-neck linen dress (poetryfashion.co.uk)

Not a bad price although it is quite a thin linen. I got it in the dark grey. Wearing this with my black marks and spencers fake vegas. Super comfy and a really great price. I find they go with everything.

The trainers and the dress come up big. I have sized down in both.

Poetry - V-neck linen dress

A long, floaty dress with a deep peplum hem in yarn-dyed linen for a naturally marled and textured appearance. With a fixed, crossover v-neckline, elbow-length sleeves and pockets in the front seams. available in Pale sky, Shell brown, Monochrome, Yell...

I have just ordered the beige ones to wear with brown and green things.

dudsville · 25/08/2023 09:00

I have the trousers in that pic @MrsRadichio, looking forward to the cooler weather!

dudsville · 25/08/2023 09:04

That's a really nice looking dress@neveradullmoment99 , I considered buying it for a good few minutes there!

ilovecherries · 25/08/2023 09:24

I actually found the live a bit agitating to watch. I think because she seemed so lovely but really didn’t seem comfortable in front of the camera so I felt anxious for her! I prefer soothing Nicki! I was so distracted I couldn’t really focus on the clothes.

I felt exactly the same way. It was quite uncomfortable to watch and I found myself fast forwarding it!

Theteapotsbrokenspout · 25/08/2023 09:50

Lovely dress @neveradullmoment99 , tempted by the duck egg, but definitely don’t need any more dresses (well not until toast's new drop and the sale of course).

Laska2Meryls · 25/08/2023 09:50

I see next one is 7th does that mean the drop will be before that ? I am in That London on 7th and will probably have a couple of hours to spare.. And I have never been to theNotting Hill store! 😉

Laska2Meryls · 25/08/2023 09:51

Whats the nearest tube to NH store? Is it far to walk?

applecatchers36 · 25/08/2023 09:57

Notting hill gate Laska and yes a 10 min walk from the tube. It's a good store, large and their circle rail is the best in London.

Laska2Meryls · 25/08/2023 10:01

Cool.. I definitely want to go! Especially if the new stuff will be in ..

Laska2Meryls · 25/08/2023 10:08

Ill bring some circle stuff also .. have a couple of things that I might like to swap.
Otherwise my nearest Toast is either Brighton or Bath/Shepton Mallet.. both a long way..
Someone was saying how random Toast stores are, but they seem to be are kind of 'Cathedral town places - except SM) so I really cant understand why they dont have a store in Winchester or Chichester ( would be great for me, either) ... Both are the 'right' sort of places

ScottishMouse · 25/08/2023 10:27

@Laska2Meryls I was told September 1st for the new drop when I was in my local store the other day. So there should be plenty to see by the 7th.

applecatchers36 · 25/08/2023 10:34

Am driving through Switzerland on a family holiday. Wearing my fenugreek trousers and a cream sleeveless t-shirt today. So far this has been my best travelling outfit. My black v neck jersey dress has been the best dress for eating out so far...

Noodle421 · 25/08/2023 10:41

Yes, I was told new stuff will be in shops next Friday. It’s already filtering through. I briefly set eyes upon a pair of wide leg forest green fine needle cord trousers. Gorgeous. Some lovely coats too apparently being unpacked in the stock room. A couple of checked coats with deep pockets, a navy coat with high neck and a beautiful sounding statement coat with embroidery around the collar area ( I think - it was a bit of a rushed conversation and I wasn’t allowed to have a sneaky peek) .

@Noodle421 is it filtering through online?

Laska2Meryls · 25/08/2023 11:09

I am wearing the fenugreek trousers also and a dark green Emma tee ( dyed myself) At home/ pottering down to local shops day ..

Laska2Meryls · 25/08/2023 11:10

The cord trousers sound good!

@Noodle421 is it filtering through online?

Not that I know of. The clothing is gradually arriving in shops and being unpacked in the stock room but is out of sight from customers until next Friday. I’ve no idea about plans for online release. Toast do usually start filtering pieces through at random times, so keep an eye out. I saw the cord trousers very briefly as they were being moved to the stock room. The shop was quiet so they were using the time to unpack. I’m looking for a coat so I did ask questions and got a brief verbal description, but no sneaky peeks.
