Just got a TU Haul, here are my reviews of the items.
Bought this for exercising at home in summer, bought a ten think it might be too big, but as I’m only wearing it to exercise in it doesn’t matter.
Just ordered size 8, see if that fits better.
Bought this skirt with the Victorian party in mind.
I like how it has a built in petticoat, but it is massive on me.
Just noticed this picture randomly.
This is interesting as you must need some sort of corset to hold it all in.
It looks less flared and bulky on the model so wondering if it is designed for someone tall?
Not sure I’d suit a corset anyway.
Going to pack it away till I get my sewing machine.
Had an idea to make it into a dress.
The petticoat underneath is quite nice, so might just alter the skirt into something else.
I think it is a fair price if it fits you as it has a lot of fabric in it.
Just noticed I bought size 8 and it is too big?
Model wears size 10 and is 5’8″
Just as a guide I’m 5’4″ and I’d say it wasn’t as long on me or about the same.
It should be shorter on her?
Good value.
Just realised I might be the new size 6 in this.
Ordered size 6, will tell you how I do.
Really like this skirt so hopefully size 6 will fit.
As all the sizes have changed might be getting somewhere.
Just tried these on and really pleased.
They look a bit more flared on me, but wanted them flared.
The fabric is just what I wanted for exercising at home in summer.
Not sure I’d wear them outside as I don’t like shorts anyway, but I’d definately wear them on holiday where everyone is wearing shorts.
I bought small but I should get X small going by the measurements.
The waist feels really comfortable, but might explain the flare on the hips, I might try xs, but wonder if that would be too small?
Going to stock up on these.
This doesn’t look like it does on the photo.
It looks flat at the back on the photo, but it is actually really gathered and bulky.
I purchased it because it looks flat.
Thought this was going to be different and a pretty blouse for summer.
Tried it under my size 8 F & F jacket, (pre covid).
It looked really nice under that as it pulls the bulk in.
This is now more of a winter blouse to where under a black jacket.
It looks really nice at the front.
But the flare at the back doesn’t suit me.
If you suit flared backs you might love this blouse.
Really like the sleeves.
It might work under a waistcoat actually, then you could pull the flare in at the back but still have the sleeves.
Might try size 6, as all the sizes have changed I might be size 6?
Really like the colour and style of this blouse.
Like how it covers you up under the armholes.
Not sure about the flare at the front,
You can’t wear this under a jacket.
Not sure I suited it tucked in.
Think size 10 is too big so ordered white in size 8.
This blouse is lovely and cool for summer.
Will let you know how I do with size 8.
Really pleased with this, got it in small and it fits really well.
This is the same style as the white one.
Got this in size 8 also and it fits better.
As I weigh size 8, I think this is actually a regulated size 8.
This fits how these used to.
It is a bit long on me, always wondered if they were for tall people.
Size 8 fits me fine and I will use it for exercising at home and layering.
Conclusion
Really pleased with this haul, especially the fitness outfits.
Need to declutter my wardrobe of clothes that are too big to make way for my fitness wardrobe and possibly my new size.
The slub t shirts from last year might be too big now, so need to get organising.
Hope this review helps if you’ve shed some weight and not sure what size outfits to go for.
When the heat comes you will be ready this year and on cooler days for exercise have your fitness gear ready and easily accessible.
Going to repeat purchase some of this now I know my sizes in it.
Hope you enjoy this haul blog.
