Topshop #2

[loverunway]

Actually it does look kinda thin but it's wool so it should be fairly warm. It's good though cos it's oversized so you can fit layers under it but that makes it not worth £95... But then again it's August and I want to be wearing it as soon as it starts getting colder so I don't want it to be too warm for Sept/Oct ahhaha oh dear...

 

[marmoset]

Yeah if it's wool it shouldn't be too bad.
I often buy all my winter coats now and then they just sit there until Nov/Dec when I can wear them! I like to buy things in advance though.

kinda foolish but may I ask what you girls do when you bought an item online but got the wrong size? I bought a coat which is too big for me and I want to return it and get the right size. should I return it and buy the right size again?or they do it in any other way?

 

[loverunway]

I really like these shoes but which colour would you get?

^ I like those but the black will be easier to pair with if you wear browns and camel's because the black ones have brown on them

Well I think you can return in store unless you're outside of the UK (or not near a Topshop) of course. If it's in store I would just exchange it for the right size but I think online you can't do that so I'd just return it and get the other size.

Woop!

Just got THE coat!

I have been stalking Topshop since I saw that pic posted on here a few weeks ago. I hope I got the right size. I'm an 8/10 in Topshop and got an 8. Just hope the 'boyfriend fit' element of it means it aint too large for moi.

I threw in a Tee too so I got free postage. Fingers crossed it looks as nice as it does in the photos. £95 is not to be sniffed at. But it's a classic style and the colour is so neutral. I think this could be a keeper for a few years to come....

thank you for your answer. I'm outside of the uk so I guess I'm gonna return it and buy the right size again.

I love the coat but I have seen some vintage ones I prefer. I'd like to know what its like IRL though.

 

[indepwe]

^ Same, I like to try before I buy unless I reeeeeeally want it!

 

[marmoset]

^
Yep, that's me also!
I've posted in this thread too much today!
This is what happens when you're sick haha

 

[indepwe]

Same and thats what happens when they weather is too horrible you want to stay in and curl up on the sofa. I have this weird obsession with Topshop

 

[danger mouse]

Haha - yes I would have loved to have 'tried before I buyed'
But I think this might be a quick sell. If it looks rubbish or the quality aint so good, it's going straight back for a refund. I got free postage so nothing to lose for now.

I hope I do like it though. I will post any goss as soon as it arrives....

Oh yeah marmoset - illness, rest and the internet are not a good combo. Pennies are spent fast! Get well soooon x

 

[marmoset]

Aww thank you danger mouse! I'm poorly all the time though
Also do they ever restock sold out items? Those stupid peacock earrings are going to haunt me now, sometimes I find stuff on eBay but nobody seems to have them

 

[gossiping]

yeah ocassionally i think they do..i think that coat could looks good on the right person but i am just not brave enough

i like tight clothes

 

[loverunway]

Yeah I think there must be vintage coats that are really similar but much cheaper but everything vintage is always massive! I'm a size 6/8 but when I look on etsy for example, all the vintage camel coats are size 18+ :/ Really irritating... It seems like that with all vintage clothes too.

I'm the same with vintage, especially with coats. I always need the tiniest because i have narrow shoulders, which is where coats always fail me, even if they fit well everywhere else, the shoulders and chest kinda billow out

the video was interesting except my eyes hurt a LOT watching it thanks

i could spend all day in the oxford circus store alone. with everyone else in it, i can spend a maximum of 10 minutes before i want to die though.
