I won't beat around the bush, the lot went back! I just wasn't feeling any of them for various reasons. The coat was a great colour but a little long in the sleeve, didn't fall great when done up and felt thin - but at £29.99 I wasn't expecting miracles for my money. All in all it just wasn't right on me.

I loved the print on this dress but it was huge - and I ordered the XS! It doesn't look like it in the picture I know but there was a ton of gathering going on due to the excess material. I'm also not one for a big baggy sleeve as I feel it drowns me a little.
Ah the denim dress number! Short! It was also on the tight side and I wanted to wear a big jumper underneath. Overall too short and too tight and that's before you've addressed the extra long straps at the back that would need altering.
Luckily I cheered myself up with this cheerful number form Topshop. Completely not the fibre composition I would normally buy and in a few months time I may well come to regret it if it's a bobbling state. However my lovely friend had a student discount of 20% (she's a student at night time - not a you student in the sense you may be thinking - don't kill me for saying that J, I'm as old as you....!) so at just over £20 I felt like taking a risk. It feels a little Mork and Mindy but I still love it!

I just returned the ivory version of your pink coat. It fitted fine on me, a fraction long in the arm as I expected which doesn't bother me as I alter all my sleeves if need be but I sent it back because of the shape. I wasn't keen on the a-line. If it had been straight cut, I might have kept it as the ivory was very fresh. Shame about your order but sometimes that happens! Have been there many times myself. I think of it as money saved. And new opportunities for something better.
ReplyDeleteGlad it wasn't just me then, when it was zipped the a-line just didn't work. Yes, I was pleased in some ways it all went back - but that didn't stop me re-allocating the pennies elsewhere....!x
DeleteI am forever ordering a shed load and then sending the lot back! It is quite depressing but then you suddenly think "hey I have saved a load of money, what can I buy instead?" Fuzzy logic. I agree about the shape of the jacket and nanoo nanoo to you too ;0) xx
ReplyDeleteDitto! But I actually prefer to try on at home now and so long as it's free returns it doesn't bother me. x
