Got my dispatch note too!

Very unlike me but I’ve not been back for another order this year. Good for my bank balance though.

Snowyowl78 · 28/11/2023 18:50

I’m trying the coral print checked dress- anyone got it?

Popplebop · 28/11/2023 18:50

Oh well I have gone back for a Pond re-visit at the further reduced price! I sent it back after the summer Pond-athon as I wasn’t quite convinced. But maybe this time. Plus a duck egg blue blouse that had wanted previously. We will see 😂

Dee1224 · 28/11/2023 20:48

I love Pond @Popplebop - it also looks good with a t shirt underneath! I had to try a couple of sizes before I got it right.

Hope it works out for you.

MiracleToast · 28/11/2023 22:25

Hmm, no dispatch notice here… not looking good

Nanasueathome · 29/11/2023 09:12

I’ve given in and ordered the Alder check dress
i am so weak

OftenOrange · 29/11/2023 09:56

@Snowyowl78 I’m trying the coral check dress too , seen two people wearing and admired it.

OftenOrange · 29/11/2023 10:08

My first tranche is arriving tomorrow, completely overdone it , and asking myself why I needed to order such a lot.

Ecru barrel leg dungarees
3 dresses ( 2 unworn from Summer sale )
starfish pyjamas ( prefer a nightdress)
sailor collar denim shirt ( really?)
Spacecheck trousers. ( quite sensible as love the plain)
spececheck shorts ( shorts are for hiking only these days)

BettinaInDenmark · 29/11/2023 10:12

I got a message from DHL saying that the stuff I ordered will arrive tomorrow! Yippie!
I am looking forward to see if the tie-dye silk shirt and dress is worth the money. At sale price - 245 and 295 Euro - I still think it is a bit much. Hopefully I will not fall in love with all the items I ordered... ;)

Dee1224 · 29/11/2023 10:23

One of my orders is arriving tomorrow. I wish I had ordered the green kelp dress as I have liked it for ages. Now oos, (but probably wouldn’t have fitted me on the chest anyway 😿).

Dee1224 · 29/11/2023 10:24

@OftenOrange - will look forward to hearing about the denim sailor collar - was strangely drawn to it myself, with a view to wearing it as a jacket.

Dee1224 · 29/11/2023 10:28

I haven’t noticed any restocking. I wonder if they’ll not bother as it’s a short sale, or do something weird like put on loads of good stuff at 3am on Saturday morning, (or similar!)

It’s not like Toast haven’t got form for doing this…

Stoic123 · 29/11/2023 10:38

Final tally is two orders with 3 linen dresses. First parcel due today

  • Black coffee sundress- love it but it may not love my ample bust.
  • Black coffee easy dress - photos uninspiring but good on Toast Live clip
  • Tangerine Boatneck - love my midnight one but this colour may not suit.
No1Mousie · 29/11/2023 10:41

quietly sobbing still no despatch note, but payment take from my bank account ...

Dee1224 · 29/11/2023 11:03

Have you contacted them @No1Mousie ?

No1Mousie · 29/11/2023 11:41

@Dee1224 yes, on the website chat function. Apparently it’s been picked and packaged, and is awaiting collection either this afternoon or tomorrow latest. I pushed back a little, and pointed out that others who placed their orders on Monday received same day dispatch notes. So all sorts of reasons were given for the delay, busy warehouse, couriers not collecting frequently enough, generally busy due to Black Friday, people choosing express delivery - take your pick 🤷‍♀️. My guess is there’s been some sort of glitch with it. I guess it will help me to cultivate some patience 🤣

Countmeout · 29/11/2023 12:00

I think they can be really slow @No1Mousie . It’s the time it takes to get to the actual sorting office too sometimes.

I ordered the Maeve @Dee1224 in both colours. I like the mango but I’m not sure it’s not too like the Kado. Although I think it’s a better shape than the Kado and I always get muddled getting in to it.At least one will be going back, I’m not sure it will fit my bust either.

And Lo! An email has miraculously appeared from customer services!

Dee1224 · 29/11/2023 12:30

Fingers crossed it arrives soon @No1Mousie

Looking forward to hearing how you get on with those dresses @Countmeout

No1Mousie · 29/11/2023 13:53

Thanks @Dee1224, and @Countmeout yes, think you’re right 😊. I’ll vicariously enjoy everyone else’s purchases whilst I wait.

Firesideknitting · 29/11/2023 21:23

My 2nd dispatch notice (jumper for daughter).. so pretty happy with all that… there wasn’t much in the sale for me tbh.. mind there’s not much im
after for my wardrobe…

Snowyowl78 · 30/11/2023 08:59

Does anyone have Chie Mihara shoes/boots? Just got some from Vinted and they are v small! I am going to hope they stretch a bit on my feet!

BettinaInDenmark · 30/11/2023 09:05

@Snowyowl78 I love Chie Mihara shoes and boots. Usually they are true to size, but a few of them are made on a more narrow shoe last, so feels much too small for me.

Snowyowl78 · 30/11/2023 09:09

@BettinaInDenmark ive squashed my feet into them with some socks so will wear them around the house. I hope they’ll work as they’re super nice and a total bargain! They are burgundy leather and suede ankle boots
