I know, especially when my daughters larger order of sparkly shoes that were ordered after arrived in full and sooner! They will be in store on the 10th so will report back asap! I've seen them in the store but not tried on in my size, fingers crossed! x

Yay - I'm not the only one! I do feel better when I return…hate having to ebay or give to charity. I think you know in your heart within about 10 minutes of getting it home, if you're going to wear it. Avx

It's lovely, isn't it? The lace is a lovely touch. I wish I bought a couple of them…going to look again for one this week, Avx

Ah yes, another heatgen fan! You really have stocked up on them and thanks for the petite tip, Avril x

It is gorgeous - you should check eBay as I'm sure there are a few. The navy one is actually nicer than the black I think…I've seen it on a couple of people. Avx

Thanks Trea - that's really helped me decide to return it - you are confirming my suspicions! Avx

2013-01-07T20:52:17.471+00:00

You are so right - I don't like fidgeting with my clothes and it does look SO much better in the M&S photo - which in itself is a worry! The photos I took myself are awful…I wouldn't share them! Avx

2013-01-07T20:51:21.905+00:00

Exactly - and I've done that too…learned the hard way! I promise the shoes are lovely…just wait till the weather improves and I can actually wear them outdoors! Avx

2013-01-07T20:50:15.319+00:00

Aw, that;s hugely frustrating about your order getting cancelled - not good customer service at all. I think you'll like the trousers….they are so cute. I look forward to seeing them on the blog! Avril x

2013-01-07T20:48:37.081+00:00

Oh Fiona, I do love your comments - thank you! Do let me know how you get on with your cocoon…I sent mine back! I am saving for a trip to London so am being ruthless about returning. I wish now I did get the tunic but there were only big sizes left in the shop at the weekend. Just as well I suppose but you've confirmed what I suspected - it's a very wearable tunic. Oh and to answer your question, my twins aren't identical but I'm guessing it will be interesting when they get to that dating stage…if one gets a date and the other doesn't. Hope your daughter had a great time - she better not get them mixed up!
Hope you're all over your tummy bug and feeling lots better, Avril xxx

2013-01-07T20:42:35.035+00:00

Hi Avril, I am awaiting my order of the trousers! The rest of the order was cancelled, so frustrating! I did manage to get to a store also and grabbed a load of vests, same price as yours but the thin strapped ones, such good value. Gutted I was slow to start this year - the leather jacket and cardi looked amazing! x

Hi Avril

At last I get to comment on your post!
Was laid low with tummy bug and so could post from phone
but it takes me forever but am now back on the computer - yay!

Love your buys. I think that the cocoon thing is gorgeous
but wonder would I be pulling and dragging at it
- anyway I have ordered it and will let you know!

I agree with you about taking things back, I much prefer to try things on properly at home and then if they don't suit I bring them back promptly otherwise they are stuck with the other mass of stuff at the back of the wardrobe.

I bought the lambswool blue tunic before Christmas and also got it in grey, it was a great buy as I have worn them both and they are very easy wearing.

I hope that you have a great weekend.

Fiona

[ps I thought of you during the week as I know that you have twins
(are they identical?) well anyway the reason I thought of you is
because my daughter has a date tonight with a twin (identical) and it got me thinking of all the people I know who have twins...
there's me rabbiting on again.....

I've had the footglove ballet pumps before and loved them. Was excited to see tham at £19 as I have a £20 voucher to spend. Like you said full price on website. Might have to pop in.

"the pair I've bought are a murky grey/green"
Oooh, you're really SELLING those shoes to us Avril!! ;-)

Enjoying reading about your sales finds...
I'm a returner too. Better to make the effort to take things back, I find, than to have to make the effort to take them to the charity shop 3 months later!

2013-01-03T13:06:31.731+00:00

I'm a great returner. I think I love the thrill of the buy and when I get it home, find out it's not quite perfect and then it goes back. Even the £3 items! And if you have a limited budget then the returns are absolutely necessary!
