I've decided to put my money where my mouth is and instead of just doing my picks from the Hush sale, I'll order up a few pieces for a show and tell. Here are the items I've ordered - I'm sharing now as there's every chance they will be sold out by the time they arrive in Belfast and I report back!
I've been wearing my black maxi dresses lots so was keeping an eye out for a coloured one. This is probably a bit bright for me and I'm not sure how the strapless detail will work but I always like to try something a bit different when I'm putting in an order anyway and there's free returns.
Jersey Maxi Dress - in the S/M
Fluro Stripe Tee - ordered in the M/L hoping it's not too big after reading the reviews & Cargo Trousers - again, interested to see the sizing after reading reviews. I ordered a 10.
Crop Jersey Jacket - in a S/M - have admired this for a long time so I have high hopes & Chiffon Shirt in Spice - ordered a S/M
Needless to say, I'm not planning on keeping it all....but I'm hoping there's one or two pieces I'll love. Back soon with a full report :)
I can't wait to see you in some of the items. Weren't you a bit disappointed with the discounts? I also was sad that the star jumper and harem pants were not in the sale :-(

Wish there was free returns here too! I have the fluoro tee in the pink and s/m would be better for you I fear. That's the size I have and you are smaller than me. Their discounts are not great at all.
ReplyDeleteEvery thing I had my eye on was sold out in my size! Probably for the best really x
ReplyDeleteIt was kind of what I expected from Hush. I think you run the risk as a brand of losing custom if you reduce too much. For instance, I'd never buy in Mango outside of sale now - they kind of devalue themselves by slashing prices so much at sale - if you know what I mean? Anyway, it makes me happier about ordering the harems in the grey now knowing they're not going to be reduced...tho not till next month and only if I return some of this!!! X
ReplyDeleteSo frustrating about the returns isn't it?! I remember it so well from when I lived in Dublin. And you've confirmed my suspicions about the top - sounds like it's going back :( x
ReplyDeleteOh no Sharron! I definitely missed out on a few things too - it's a popular sale and I was too distracted yesterday to look. Lesson learned for next time!! Xx
ReplyDeleteI love Hush and can't wait to see all these gorgeous pieces in an outfit post!

I'll be dying to hear what you think of Hush. I've read lots of great things, but as there aren't free delivery and returns here, I'm reluctant (ok, too cheap!!) to spend the money, when I'm not sure what the clothes will be like. Love the jacket you've chosen x
ReplyDeleteSorry this is OT but I found your site because I was searching for bloggers who have tried on or worn Boden. I want to place an order with Boden. But I was wondering about fit, specifically on the Hamptons Tee and Essential Scoop Neck Tee. Should I size up or stick with my true size?
ReplyDeleteHi Sandy, I would size up in the Essential Scoop Neck as I've found it neat fitting...especially if you're longer in the body. Not sure about the Hamptons Tee though - have you read the reviews online. I always read them all as they're fantastic for giving you a feel for sizing et. Hope this helps! Avril x
ReplyDeleteLove your picks Avril... I was tempted by that shirt in the blue. Unfortunately most of the stuff I wanted had sold out but I did order a couple of jumpers - can't wait to try them! x
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see you what you think of it all - I had to send the cargo trousers back as they were too baggy, even in the right size. Also definitely think you'll be a small in their t-shirts. The jacket looks fab, I hadn't really noticed it before!

Thank you Avril!
ReplyDeleteI do love Hush, just such wearable clothes, and great prices too, especially in the sales! Really love that little cropped jacket, I might just be tempted too, if still around!! xx
