    oh no! I've been reading this thread over the past few days umm-ing and ahh-ing about whether to order one - just went to order and they've only got sizes 8 and 12 left. That'll teach me for thinking too much. People have been saying the sizes are quite large - I'm normally a 10 - sometimes a 12 in the 'younger' shops - should I just get a 12 and hope it's OK... hmmm. More thinking required!

    All OOS now. I did the same as you moonberry:(

    If you are definitely a size 10 normally, the size 8 should fit you, as they come up big.

    If you use the free delivery code, you will get free delivery and 10% off, making it £27 delivered.

    It seems to still be showing 8 and 12 available.

    Hope my bag comes today! Today's the seventh day for me so fingers tightly crossed!

    The replacement item I received was a plain blue t-shirt. I only got three items in my original package, They didn't actually answer my question about whether I was supposed to get 4/5 items. I just hope the next package is OK otherwise they will think I'm a difficult customer!

    What exactly did you get in your first package. I'm curious. I saw a post where you mentioned tent-like dresses. :D

    By popular demand, my dress is now up on ebay :-)

    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Pink-and-violet-100-silk-people-tree-dress-/260636926576?cmd=ViewItem&pt=Women_s_Clothing&hash=item3caf2be270

    I'll be listing most of my people tree stuff actually as while the clothes are very nice the stuff I got just doesn't suit my lifestyle. I can't wear dresses to work and also, it's cold up here where I live (north of Scotland!).

    I received my second box today and got the same two t-shirts I had in my first box, plus a cream puff-sleeved shirt, an orange embroidered neck shirt, and a blue patterned dress. I actually won't wear a single one of these items :-(. I guess I'm just not their target market, but if they do these again in winter I'll be all over them.

    Thats a shame. I've just checked out your items, and you've got some lovely stuff. I um (ahem :o) have got my 3rd, and final bag coming. I couldn't resist the lure of the free delivery, and discount.

    I am not going to buy anymore, as I am totally skint. Not very MSE, but I couldn't resist the though of getting a few £100's worth of items, at a bargain price.

    I usually only buy stuff now and again. I will look on this as blowing my clothes budget for the next 4 months. ;) At least, I will not have to buy any clothes till autumn/winter. :j

    1. I had a blue/white cotton dress in a tie-dye style, it has a sash at the waist. Absolutely huge on me will look great taken in by a few inches
    2. Navy blue stretchy cotton tunic/dress, similar in style to a tennis dress I guess. I think I could use it as a Teepee cover and live inside it.
    3. Emerald green tunic top/v. short dress with embroidered triangles around the neckline

    I got all of those plus a white t-shirt, yellow camisole thingy and a red/white printed top, but sent it all back in the end. It was all huge and not the sort of style or colour I would usually wear. Shame 'cos it looked really nice quality.

    Could probably have made loads selling separately but couldn't face the hassle ...

    There aren't any size 10s left, only 8 and 12.

    I had to pay the return postage yes. But I've said I've cancelled under the DSR so hopefully I'll get their postage refunded too (wish I'd ordered a 10 when the code appeared but they've run out now).
