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

[ilovecherries]

Here we are

I love that also, and had forgotten about it @Snowyowl78 Hmm....may have to reconsider my One only resolution already .
I have last years blue stripe version in M but sadly cant help with the new sizing , but as above I have always seemed to have had to go up with the new sizing 😡

That’s so lovely @Saurus72 - really suits you.

That’s the dress that an assistant at SM was wearing half open over a white cotton dress as a kind of coat, which also looked good.

Looks beautiful on you @Laska2Meryls !

That’s a lovely dress @Saurus72 . That shirt is so beautiful @Laska2Meryls , I’m sure it also feels amazing.

I hope it’s not a 5 o’clock kick off if it is sale, I’ve a school pick up to do.

Anyone able to comment on the fitting of the space check shorts, they’re the only thing I’m thinking of trying in it.

@Countmeout if they're anything like the space trousers I'd say a medium is about a 14.

Thanks @Trinitybean . Old sizing then? That’s very helpful.

@Laska2Meryls lovely shirt, totally worth it, the fabric looks really beautiful.

I would think there will definitely be a late Autumn drop in October, maybe pre-Christmas too, there are usually some velvet dresses around that time. Plus baubles 🎄

I’d also really like to get the shorts @Countmeout but reviews do seem to say they come up on the smaller side. I’m also wondering what size I’ll need.

Ooh, that shirt is elegant on you @Laska2Meryls !

Thank you for the shirt love. It is really lovely.. just a bit annoying that I feel that it could be slightly less oversized, if only the shoulders were not quite so neat fitting.. It is a bit large everywhere else.. But yes , the silk linen fabric is gorgeous...(does need a bit of a press atm). I think that its going to be one of those 'timeless' purchases..

I don't think it looks massively oversized @Laska2Meryls, it looks a perfect match for your trousers in terms of a loose fit, which i think is much clearer in the 2nd pic. You look like you're off to some elegantly casual brunch or gallery. Is the top a line?

I agree, the shirt and fit look fab @Laska2Meryls

I am wearing the navy balloon linen trousers with it.. ( size s!! ... top size 18 !)

Toast, If you are reading this ( and I believe at least some of your employees are ) you really do need to go back to the old sizes.. perhaps with an xxs added for those who take a 4 or 6.... I am really no way an 18 anywhere else , I am usually 14 ! But I had to buy that shirt in that size 18 from you to fit my 36E bust and shoulders! ... You are certainly losing customers by excluding those over a high street 16/18/20 and many of those are the very people who love your stuff and were previously a big part of your core clientele..

It drapes beautifully. High silk content makes a difference.

Yes a little, it has deep side slits also

@PretLea do you mean the space check shorts? They are very large, I have the small and I’m never small in anything really

Does anyone have the cashmere cardigan ( I think it’s only 5 % cashmere, but I’m too tired to check). Anyone have a problem with bobbling ? All wool bobbles so I am prepared for some but previous reviews mention a lot of bobbling. I hope not, I’ve just purchased the green cardigan.

@PretLea actually I’ve just the website and it looks like they might have changed the sizing- I bought these last year but now they say it’s new sizing and reviews say small! Most confusing

Yes @Snowyowl78 - I missed them in the sale, and I think those were old sizing. The ones on the website now seem to be much smaller in size according to reviews. But they do seem identical in style and fabric at least. Very confusing indeed!

Yes the shorts are confusing. I will try to order a couple of sizes if they pop up in sale.

@Noodle421 i have the jumpers with cashmere in them . I think it’s 30%. They do bobble a lot . I get good use out of the comb. But they’re among my favourite jumpers. They are so soft.

@Countmeout thank you - oh gosh, I am tired, you are right it’s 30 % not 5 % cashmere. I love the cardigan and it goes with everything, so I will arm myself with a debobble comb and hope for the best.

I have the medium in both the navy and the rust, and I’m pretty much a 10-12. I don’t find them too big at all and in fact have to do a 5 second shimmy at my widest bit. I did buy the bitter chocolate in a medium though and almost had to hold them up. So I’d say they were the only ones that were old sizing. I’d love the check ones too, but no way would I pay a hundred quid for a pair of linen shirt so I also have my fingers crossed.

I have this - I’m a 12 and went for a medium specifically because I want it to layer over sweaters. But I don’t have last year’s to compare with.

Thanks @OftenOrange and @FiddleFigs , one to try in store I guess.

@dudsville the bud dress. Some tries at styling .Jumper out of freezer. It doesn’t seem too dark this week as the weather is Autumnal.
It also works with the jumper along although the jumper is not as bright as the Cumin(?) colour in the dress. No idea about shoes other than trainers. It’s footwear I struggle with. My favourite is with the workwear jacket. Actually wearing it by itself today as the temperature isn’t bad and I will only be in and out of the car. Have you tried it with Royal blue as there’s quite a blue line in the check? I don’t have anything in that colour.
Have lost a couple of pounds and it feels looser but still need a pin at the bust. My bust never loses. I think it must be the cut of Toast dresses too. I noticed on one of the videos a dress looked snug on someone with even a smaller bust.
