Items to which I am allured

[Luna]

Definitely the first one. Long sleeves might still be too hot in October

[Ella]

Love the sound of orange birkies!

Are these too much like maternity trousers? Spotted them on Vinted and I like the look of them...

I have some like that and like them, but they need to be the right size - if they're at all too big it's a disaster :lol: I fold the top over which I think is how thy're supposed to be worn.

Hmm, then I think I'll skip them - being on Vinted, I can't try them on. And the price is too high for me to risk it.

I have several pairs of those as loungewear, but I wouldn't wear them out of the house, personally. Me & Em sells them if you have that near you? (Probably not, but I don't know :)).)

The first dress is gorgeous, get it!

The second is a teacup, the third could be good but I’m not sure about the neckline.

[Disco]

The first dress is very lovely. The other two, especially the third one, are horrible by comparison. Sorry, they just look too bulky to me.

[Lola]

I prefer the 3rd dress, shape-wise, as it has a waist but the sleeves could be too big. I’m not sure about the billowy-ness of the first one.

[AshleyX]

I absolutely love the first one. Perfect for a Mallorcan wedding! Not so keen on the other two - I definitely couldn't pull them off, though you might be able to!

[Epponnee Rae]

Thanks everyone! I thought the first dress would be much more divisive, so I’m glad my initial love of it in the shop bears out (didn’t try it a few weeks ago as I didn’t have time). It’s not too much white/cream for a wedding?

The weather is apparently high teens/low 20s in October, so I’m not too worried about being overly hot. Weather could be freakish though. I will order dress 1 and dress 3 to try. The 3rd one has a longer lead time so I want to rule it/both out sooner rather than later.

Nah, and especially not for an island wedding.

[Luna]

I am allured to getting one of these. I need a new dog walking coat as my exiting one is 13 years old and holey.

I want a green one. It’s modelled horrendously here and I am concerned about the arm length as I am stumpy of limb.

I really like Rains. I have a couple of their bags and I do like that raincoat.

[Edith Bacon]

That’s a really nice coat, Luna. They would have been better just using the last picture though - the styling on the model is shocking.

[Luna]

It’s awful isn’t it?! It’s only because I know the brand that I can see past it!

[emma_p]

It’s a really good raincoat.

[Cosmopolitan]

I have a Rains coat and I utterly hate it. The arms are too long, the way to close the wristholes are via poppersand they won't stay shut. And it's done up via poppers rather than a zip or velcro or indeed anything useful because the poppers pop open every time I pick up the dogs ball. And it's really sweaty.

[Luna]

Thank you Cos. I am no longer allured. Stupidly long arms on things are a bugbear. And I can’t be doing with sweaty.

[Marth]

No, sweaty in the cold and rain isn't cool at all

[Luna]

That looks very cosy. I personally wouldn’t want brown. I am assuming it doesn’t come in another colour?

[Kenickie]

Brown could be nice an autumnal if it's a nice shade.

[Cosmopolitan]

I like the brown, it looks rich and cosy.

And please forgive the picture of my foot but can't decide whether to keep these. They are for a 2 week holiday and I was aiming for something smartish but still comfy enough for wandering around town in. But the colour is described as mushroom and I think it's putting me off. They are ridiculously comfy though.

[Luna]

I like them.
