Toasties eagerly waiting for sale day, while worrying about the life of their resold items

Here we are

Ooh thanks for the heads up! I picked up a couple of Easy Tees to add to my collection - I wore the 2 I bought earlier this year so much over the summer. Also bought the Molloy check dress, which I'd been tempted by all summer. I was hoping for a couple of cotton scarves/bandanas to pop up in the sale, but alas.

Thanks for the alert managed to order some carpenter trousers, a tank vest, a high waisted bikini, so v pleased hope some fit 🤞

Thank you! I got the checked shirts I wanted and a selection of easy tees. Nothing too damaging!

Thank you for the alert! I've ordered that nice orange linen bag. Nothing else I really wanted. I'd be in the market for bed linen and a hot water bottle cover, but none in sale so far.

Will probably order the Fracap leather mules together with my sale plurges; are the mules true to size, or??? Any hints appreciated

Ive ordered the millpond. No idea about sizing. Lady said the size large were great for a 16 so I have opted for the medium.
Also bought the two sapphire dresses which I had my eye on. Not keeping both. It will be whichever fits. Delighted to get the linen bag in the ochre too.

Tempted by the orange dress but what size? Anyone have it?

@neveradullmoment99 The orange linen one? It’s huge! I’m a HS 14 and the small was massive, couldn’t go any smaller though because of bust.

Thanks. Trying the small but it may go back too.

Oh crap, I'm very much between appointments at work so I just ran in tot he site, ordered stuff and I'm off again. Will check in later but thanks @ScottishMouse !

Thanks for the heads up whoever it was. I had to dash home halfway through doing things - have ordered quite a few things! The space check trousers they only had in xxs and am a bit worried they'll be too small, also the bottle green linen trousers in two sizes, a couple of boy tees, and the shell skirt. Back off to finish what I was doing! 😀

I've had the added bonus of a cancellation so I'm back to share the excitement!

@faustina I have the space check trousers in M, as a hs 14, and they sit low on my hips. They are wonderful, I practiaclly live in them.

@neveradullmoment99 I'm trying the orange and the navy in M. I tried the navy after the last sale and didn't think it suited me but I want to think about it again. I'm also pleased that the two other linen dresses I said just a little while ago that I was interested in are also in the sale.

I'm going to have a more considered look now that I have a moment.

It looks like the sale tab is up now.

I have ordered the navy swingy linen shirt ( having just sent the parchment one back, though thats in the sale also) and thats it.. I won't get it for a few weeks anyway because I am leaving for Spain in the van on Sunday and d it won't arrive before then , but I am pretty sure that it will be ok ( I have others of that type and having tried the parchment I know the size). Sadly no nightwear in the sale .. Nothing else I want..

I might regret this later...

Thanks @ScottishMouse!

So, my first basket had £897 worth in it 🤣🤣🤣- lots of my wishlist appeared.

I reduced drastically and have ordered. Very annoyed to see the towel, (the one I reordered that isn’t even here yet), is reduced. Have reordered and first one will be returned!

I reluctantly left the clogs and the Maeve kelp dress. I might order later but shouldn’t really. The clogs are lovely and fit me, but I am mindful that I just bought a pair at SM that I can’t walk in.

Re: Maeve - I don’t do well with buttons across the chest. Does anyone have it and could advise as to whether a 12 would fit me? (Pond fits me in a Small and the sail stripe blue dress in a Medium, if that helps at all.)

That's a nice selection @BettinaInDenmark ! I don't know about you but I'm never sure what's going to work.

Did anyone see the barrel leg ecru dungarees are back in the sale. They are truly fabulous.

I think I must have already missed some things by the time I logged on🙃

I was very tempted to try the check gingham again as it’s so lovely, but had to give myself a strict reminder that it triggers my migraines!

Wearing Pond today so have ordered the acid green in M as it looks similar. Apparently new sizing, so who knows if it will fit. Does anyone have it? Is it tts?

Thanks for the heads up @ScottishMouse did you say you were trying the Moonstar trainers? I love the look of the white ones with the black sole.

I like this dress as a good summer basic but I don't like buying out of season so much. Does anyone have this?

I also like the ikat skirt and dress that are on sale (in the same material) but they remain really pricey - £165 for the skirt in the sale.

@BettinaInDenmark I like the look of that blue shirt too - interested to hear how it is in real life.

I think I may fill my online basket and then muse a bit more as nothing is currently screaming 'buy me'!!

Thanks @dudsville - I will cross my fingers

@Dee1224 - I left the clogs too, because I've spent quite a lot of money, and also I just picked up a VERY nice cashmere sleeveless cardigan by Crush from TKMaxx. I've never heard of that brand before but I've tried it on briefly and instantly felt it was perfect. Maybe my epic hunt is over?

Also - totally off topic but someone else might be interested.. I plan to spend some money tomorrow at Uniqlo when the Claire Wright Keller collab opens. She has what looks like it might be the perfect little cropped cashmere cable jumper in navy. It's turning into an expensive week!!!

Yes, I also looked at the dungarees, but on the model it looks like the legs are very wide, and the cotton linen wide legged trousers that I got in the last sale are annoying me because they are so wide and almost reaching the floor, so I skipped the dungarees

I think the sale is really disappointing, as was the last one.

Just wanted to join in and say thanks for the heads up, I’m a long time admirer of this lovely thread and a toast sale shopper based in denmark.

have just ordered from my wish list

the shell skirt and flotsam bikini bottoms and on a whim the navy linen jumpsuit.

the rest of my order is full price stuff to try, just enough to get free delivery and then most likely to go back with any sale returns so I only have to pay 15 euro postage once. Daft really, but I am excited for the enamel salad bowl - hoping to keep that 😊

My 3 orders have been despatched already. I was disappointed by the selection of homeware in the sale but I did order the black watering can.
