New thread. Woke (blooming cat) to find it’s nearly full.

My trousers arrived and the sizing is a problem but I love them both - especially the wax green gabis

faustina · 25/09/2024 17:47

@Theteapotsbrokenspout they definitely come up big. I was a 6 in old sizing so ordered the 8 and it's just slightly bigger than the old 6. Wider at the calf though which I think I prefer

IlovePond · 25/09/2024 18:14

Thanks @faustina

Theteapotsbrokenspout · 25/09/2024 18:34

Thanks @faustina , that’s really helpful, I’ll order the 10.

Countmeout · 25/09/2024 18:52

That wax green looks gorgeous, such a lovely colour. Did you find the 8 too big? I think I'm more of an 8 in trousers actually, unless they happen to be really undersized.

faustina · 25/09/2024 19:29

@Netcam - they fit really nicely, in a sort of slouchy way - bigger than my beige pair, and I'm just a bit worried that they might stretch and be too big. I'm going to try them on again tomorrow and make a decision - the colour is beautiful!

Checking in to see if there’s any sign of a sale. I was sure it would start today! Maybe later? 🙏🏽

faustina · 26/09/2024 14:10

Sale! Except only a few things so far. I just typed sale into the search - not sure if it's just kindred. A few things are coming up as full price under the search so still a bit confusing
@Countmeout @AFingerofFudge @applecatchers36 @ScottishMouse @IlovePond @AmethystMoonShine @Netcam @MiracleToast @Theteapotsbrokenspout - please pass on if someone isn't tagged. My new gabis are down to £85!

MiracleToast · 26/09/2024 14:13

omg @faustina thank you!!

MiracleToast · 26/09/2024 14:14

Have you got a link? @faustina

RockaLock · 26/09/2024 14:18

Thanks for the heads-up , @faustina - I just scanned through my wishlist and there are quite a few items on there that have been reduced!

faustina · 26/09/2024 14:18

... I was logged in though

IlovePond · 26/09/2024 14:19

Thanks @faustina! Have panic bought two pairs of socks and a pair of trousers 😹😹😹

Zeusrules · 26/09/2024 14:24

Thank you @faustina, just bought a smaller pair of the green Gabis and a couple of colours of the Fracap Ola sandals as I love my existing pair. Now putting the phone down!

Theteapotsbrokenspout · 26/09/2024 14:49

Thanks @faustina I've bought the Canvas cotton gilet. I'm finding the website a bit glitchy. Hopefully a bit more will be reduced as there's nothing else I want currently.

MiracleToast · 26/09/2024 15:28

It’s a smaller sale than I had envisioned. Went with a small basket. Wonder if more will be added or that’ll be it as it’s such a short one?

ScottishMouse · 26/09/2024 15:28

Thanks @faustina. Have ordered a basket, but - and this must be a first - no clothes.

AmethystMoonShine · 26/09/2024 15:31

Thanks @faustina I got the couple of bits I wanted for my sunshine holiday at the end of October :)

faustina · 26/09/2024 15:35

I think we just stumbled upon it in the very early stages perhaps? I was only on the site because I returned both pairs of trousers (wax green gabi and the check Alix). I wanted to try the gabis in the next size down, and the alixes in the next size up, with a view to reordering the slouchy size 8s if the sixes turned out too neat. Anyway, I ordered a six in the wax green, then put sale in the search box and there were the gabis £40 cheaper! I've -re-ordered the 8s in case they sell out because the colour is so lovely. I hope the alixes will be reduced too!

MiracleToast · 26/09/2024 15:49

@AmethystMoonShine great news! ☀️

Snowyowl78 · 26/09/2024 15:54

I ordered the Mayflies silk shirt which is silly because it’s still an £185 silk shirt that you can’t wash. I’ve been waiting for it to be reduced for ages though! Not enough of a discount in my opinion.
Its quite a small sale and it ends Monday!

AmethystMoonShine · 26/09/2024 15:59

Goodness! I’ve had a dispatch email already… Toast are on fire today 😂

IlovePond · 26/09/2024 16:27

Gone back in again and ordered a t shirt and a long sleeved roll cotton top and the cotton crinkle dress to try in Puck (aka bottle green), as I absolutely love the orange version I got in the summer.

I am expecting the crinkle dress to fit as I bought M in the summer, but I have no idea about the tops as the reviews for the t shirt in particular were conflicting. It’s the Alda, does anyone have it? I ordered M and if it’s too small, so be it.

It sticks in my craw to order L but I did so in the long sleeved top because if reviewers sized 8 were saying M was tight, I stand no chance of one fitting!
