Oh Caroline I am so jealous you always look good in the items you try on.

[@Suzieplook]

Oh Caroline this video has really cheered me up...loved that lime green dress on you x

[@marysmith8876]

Thank you Caroline. This was most enjoyable. Have a great week and be safe

[@CarolineMrsM]

Thank you, Mary, glad you enjoyed it :)

[@TheHotel44]

Loved this haul Caroline! Especially loved the yellow/mustard blouse with embroidery at the top as the shape was so pretty on you. Xx

[@katekinder4002]

This was fabulous Caroline you looked so bright and bubbly and full of style as per!

[@CarolineMrsM]

Thank you, Kate :)

[@juliewhiteley2211]

Caroline the boho dress came and it is fab very well made and so comfortable getting another one xx

[@CarolineMrsM]

So glad you're pleased with it x

[@patriciag438]

Great video! I enjoy your try ons. The blouses are spot on and look great on you.

[@dawng.6497]

I like how you know what looks good on you...you’re very honest with yourself. I almost always think you’re right about every choice. I think I’ve only disagreed when you thought you didn’t look good and I thought you did 😊🥰💕😷🇨🇦

[@theseamguide]

Really surprised at how lovely the items were. Loved every top. Thanks for sharing this with us x

[@CarolineMrsM]

Glad you enjoyed it :) x

[@Myover50fashionlife]

I love the vertical striped red blouse on you very much. The circles blouse is great and i don't think its too short for you at all

[@justsayin2291]

Just started watching some of your videos and you are like a breath of fresh air ....

[@CarolineMrsM]

Thanks so much :)

[@suelongview9925]

I love your try on vlogs, I didn’t realise you could get such cheap new clothes on EBay! The pale pink top really enhanced your complexion, thank you!

[@CarolineMrsM]

Thank you :)

[@valerielynn3853]

Fabulous haul,all those vibrant colours are wonderful,loved all the tops,the dresses not so much.

[@courtneyw4633]

Also you gained a new subscriber! I don’t know how I haven’t found your channel yet! Love your accent so much!

[@alanjones9742]

Oh Caroline you look so good in the red and white stripe blouse

[@chiccabay]

All the tops look great and fit so well.,from all sides and across the bust.I would keep the multi-coloured one as it is unusual and really suits you.I would take it to a seamstress and have a black band sewn on to lenghthen it to your liking.It´s timeless .Well done.....Sx

[@CarolineMrsM]

Great idea, thank you x

[@mableashworth8692]

This was fun. Tops were great. Especially liked the sweet pink one

[@FellZane]

Hi Caroline,, You have some really pretty tops there...and bargain prices. i was so hopeful for the last pink dress it looked so pretty in the picture. Great video...thanks

[@mbd6054]

This was a great idea, Caroline. The tops were lovely, particularly the embroidered one with the slit front. Thank you for sharing. :)

[@marynajamison702]

After looking at your videos I went to buy me some blouses they realy fits me nice...thanks for your videos.xx Im size 20 and 70 years old.

[@anitajonsson4379]

I love the lime green beach dress on you, super cute!

[@ruthsaunders5806]

I enjoyed watching this haul and I really loved the big long dress! I would happily buy it from you as that size seemed sold out.

[@CarolineMrsM]

Sorry, Ruth, I returned it as it was so big.

[@vivwootten6832]

Liked all tops except red striped on as it looked a bit boxy and didn’t skim at the back quite so well. With the slightly shorter one, add a trim in one of the darker colours will make it look more expensive and give you a little more reassurance. Keep smiling 😄

[@CarolineMrsM]

Great idea!

[@debbiemorris7814]

I think there will be a lot of those pink top being ordered now they are lovely enjoyed this video it got me through my ironing.

[@debbiemorris7814]

ordered the pink top cant wait to receive it

[@CarolineMrsM]

Hope you're pleased with it :)

[@mandyrussell8616]

Great tops Caroline loved them all - such great buys. ☺️

[@donnapoolejackofalltrades7827]

I like the big dress ,and it just need a belt . I like the green dress too . I like the shirt open in the front that you say need to be sew some .

[@annjohnson543]

Loved all the tops but the last one. That one is definitely too short. The last dress print was just beautiful, but I agree the dresses were fails. Miss seeing you every day, Caroline! Enjoy all of your hauls.

[@carolanne7085]

I am five feet two inches and buy size 20/22 trousers and size 18/20 tops so am similar to you. I loved your recent fashion video, especially the tops and you look good in primary colours by the way with matching accessories and gold jewellery, footwear etc. But like many others missing your daily installments, they are like reading a good book and I've enjoyed them all during lockdown, looking forward to seeing a few weekly ones, keep safe

[@CarolineMrsM]

Hi Carol, there'll be a week in the life every Sunday for the foreseeable future :)

[@annettewilkinson6663]

Those tops were nice for the money, I bought one of the bold print tops and the stripey one in black.

[@CarolineMrsM]

Hope you're pleased with them :)

[@annettewilkinson6663]

Caroline (Mrs M) I just wanted to say both my tops have arrived, I am so pleased with them I think they are amazing value foe money. I will have to see how they wash but first impressions are very favourable. Thanks for doing the video I would never have found them otherwise. You should do an eBay shopping tips video to show novices like me how to find the “good stuff”.

[@starperry1784]

Thanks for sharing loved red stripey shirt x

[@Annaisineire]

I agree Caroline, I loved the tops that you liked, I think they look lovely on you. I thought the last top just looked too big for you, as did the pink and white dress and the patterned one. Thanks so much for doing this for us, it really gives me ideas about style. I'm hopeless to pick things out. Love the humour too Caroline :)

[@CarolineMrsM]

Oh thank you!

[@handpaintedbyclare7680]

Oh really enjoyed this video , I have just ordered myself the pink embroidered top, it’s so pretty x

[@CarolineMrsM]

Hope you're pleased with it, Clare :) x

[@irenecrook1446]

I love all the tops on you especially the embroidered mustard one, I'm going to order one in white x

[@susancraig3966]

Fun try on! The tops were mostly good on you. The red and white striped, think prob my favourite, although close call! Even if they only lasted this year they'd be worth it. I find dresses harder to suit too - generous in the wrong places, not enough fabric in others!

[@CarolineMrsM]

Dresses are always more challenging than tops, fit wise, I agree

[@magdakastaragaki3487]

You are lovely with all these dresses ♥️

[@annbaker3142]

Morning. Good to see you. Loved all the tops. Particularly the bold print. Think taking the hem down is a good option. Take care. X

[@kimscroxton2579]

So love the tops on you ... I"ve just been on-line and ordered myself a couple. x

[@CarolineMrsM]

Hope you're pleased with them. :)

[@kimscroxton2579]

@@CarolineMrsM if they look as good one me as they do on you, I'll be happy x

[@gigilou]

Loved this haul. Such a great idea in these difficult times. Some great choices 💕 xxx

[@SDM1960]

My favourite was the boho dress!

[@barbarasteel8805]

Loved the tops on you Caroline. Great choices. Agree about the dresses. The V neck top is great - was watching a style utube vidéo the other day and the woman said V necks are great for short people (I am also 5.3), apparently makes you look taller ! (also, my husband said to tell you that he used to live in Broadsands as a child before going to hotel school in Torquay at the SDTC. He believes it’s no longer there. Perhaps you know it? Hope you have lovely sunshine like we do here in France. Got to get the pool cleaned and up and running, hopefully for French guests in our gite seeing all the English have cancelled !

[@CarolineMrsM]

South Devon Tech still exists, but I think the campus is now somewhere towards Paignton on the ring road. Broadsands is lovely, such a nice beach there. :)

[@BelindaChapman]

Fabulous video and haul. Wasn’t as keen on the red striped top on you but loved the green dress 😁. You got some great bits there that suit you 👌🏻👌🏻👏🏻👏🏻. A girl can always rely on her man to give a compliment 😆😆. I had a red lightweight jumper and navy/white/red scarf on the other day and Alan asked me what shift I was working on the checkout in Tesco 😆😆😆😆

[@CarolineMrsM]

Haha, cheeky Alan!!

[@coletteoconnor3566]

Hi Caroline. This message is related to the New Look haul you did 3 days ago for your holidays. There wasn’t a place to put comments. I just wanted to say that you should definitely buy the orange floral wrap front dress as it looked stunning on you!! Just put a couple of stitches in the flap to hold it down 😊

[@susanvale4544]

HI CAROLINE, I LOVE ALL OF THE TOPS YOU TRIED ON. THEY LOOK FAR MORE EXPENSIVE THAN THE PRICE YOU PAID FOR THEM. I THINK THEY WOULD LOOK FABULOUS WITH WHITE LINEN PANTS. LOVE FROM AUSTRALIA 🇦🇺

[@jacquelinewale1231]

I loved the embroidered tops .

[@lavenderlady1470]

Love the bold print top, just ordered it, and i loved the tie neck dress, but its out of stock in most sizes. Tops look fab on you x

[@CarolineMrsM]

Hope you're pleased with it :)

[@brendawilson7994]

Hi Caroline , you looked lovely in all the tops , can I make a suggestion regarding the top you thought was to short, buying a wide lace and stitching it to the bottom of the hem would give you more length, thank you for sharing

[@CarolineMrsM]

Great idea, I might well try that :)

[@ragnarlodbruk2863]

Hiya Caroline ..... luv your videos and your style..... have sent for the stripe and mustard blouses thanks for the heads up .....

[@CarolineMrsM]

Hope you're pleased with them :)

[@mnn6494]

Love the Scandi print top!

[@kermitsmith8872]

Hi Caroline perhaps you could put some tassles round the bottom of the last top you tried on just to add a couple of inches to the length. Loved you in everything but the circus big top dress

[@CarolineMrsM]

Good idea, thank you :)

[@barbararyan586]

Love all the tops on you the dresses were ok 👌💐

[@juliepearson1685]

Great try on Video I thought the mustard top looked great on you and the pink one with the flowers on I was also looking on line at the Chinese clothes but the ones I liked were sold out in the next size up.

[@CarolineMrsM]

They sometimes restock on the same listing, so it's worth checking back in a few days if you still want them :)

[@juliewhiteley2211]

You actually look amazing in the long dress x

[@aniaania4477]

The green dress is very good for you, I think. I watching you from Poland, and I like do it in my free time. Ania

[@CarolineMrsM]

Thank you! 😊

[@cassapiacassapia7558]

Too funny Billy Smart and his circus lol I actually thought the dress was really cute, just a few sizes smaller. The tops were all brilliant, loved the mustard colored ones on you. All very flattering on you. Now all you need are places to go to wear them lol much love xxx

[@SuesPilesOfShame]

I think all the tops look lovely on you Caroline, particularly the red one, that is very fetching on you.

[@gaynorturner5370]

I like all of the tops on you Caroline and really think the green looks lovely on you! I thought the first long dress would look nice with a belt?? My least fave was the last red dress xx

[@thinhairdontcare9822]

Some great pieces there 🙂

[@dawnhall7235]

Yes I think the dress was a little too big lol i lpce tunic tops as I am a 20/22 and have to cover my tummy so a longer length is perfect for me. I can't dexide which is my favourite the red or mustard. Bargians too ! X

[@CarolineMrsM]

I was so impressed by the quality for the price :) c

[@rosalindannwebb685]

Perfect ideas for plus size 👌❤️

[@judyshuttlesworth2939]

Could you sew a fringe on the bottom of the last blouse to make it a comfortable fit for you? Loved the colors!

[@CarolineMrsM]

That's not a bad idea at all, thank you :)

[@jacquiliddell1811]

I must say without your links I couldn’t find them on EBay x

[@CarolineMrsM]

Yes, it's needle in a haystack on eBay, sometimes, I agree!!

Love the boho embroidered tops. I'm off to eBay 👏👏😁

[@marybethschraders173]

Just happened across your video and, being a plus size woman of 55, I was happy to see it. The last shirt that you tried on but thought it was too short, you could lengthen it with a bit of lace material or fabric that coordinates. Love the first dress, it would be fab on you if it wasn't so huge!

[@CarolineMrsM]

Good idea on the top, thank you :)

[@judeshangout9637]

Caroline, what size did you order the pink top and red dress in? Thought that last red dress looked really lovely on you ..... quite stunning. All looked lovely. My least favourite was the first red and white bat wing top. Wasn't too keen on that on you xxx

[@CarolineMrsM]

Hi Jude, I ordered one size up from my usual size in everything :)

[@sparklegirl66]

Hi Caroline, new subscriber here and am really enjoying your videos. Is your blog still online somewhere? I do love good blog! Take care

[@CarolineMrsM]

Hi there, thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment. My blog still exists, but it's not public any more, there were a lot of photos of Will as a child and he asked me to take them down a couple of years ago (absolutely his prerogative obviously), so it just made sense to make the whole thing private as I wasn't updating it any more. I still love to go back and read the posts, I wrote almost every day for about seven years :)

[@janworthy2741]

Hi Caroline, the tops looked great on you, the one you said was a tad too short, you could try putting a chiffon it lace trim to make it longer for you. I cannot stop giggling at you and your circus tent, it certainly had plenty of room for growth. Please take care and have a good week.

[@CarolineMrsM]

Great idea!!

[@amandarussell6298]

I liked all the tops

[@janping5247]

Love all the tops tried ons.......I struggle getting jeans with been a size 20/22 on the bottom....they never seem to come up high enough round the back.....so hate it....please advice where you get yours and the fit you go for.

[@CarolineMrsM]

I quite like Pink Clove online for jeans (they do a lot of ripped ones which I don't like), but I find their fit very comfortable.

[@hlbgma2325]

Loved all the tops and the green dress. Could you tell me where the spotted dress came from you had in one of your previous hauls can't find it? Thanks Janet x

[@CarolineMrsM]

Hi Janet, if you let me know which haul it was, I'll check if I can find it for you :) x

[@juliewhiteley2211]

So much so I have just bought it x

[@CarolineMrsM]

Hope you're pleased with it :)

[@wandat5625]

I have the same fit issues as you do. I think you look so nice when the tops don't swallow you up. You look smaller or rather we can see your figure. With all that being said, if I'm not comfortable I just won't wear it, no matter how much I love the fabric. Enjoy your videos.

[@CarolineMrsM]

Oh thank you!

[@ambercotton3260]

The dress in the very beginning where u said whatever circus could join u in...well I thought that looked great on u. Nice and flowey

[@annetteincairns3528]

🧡💜❤️ Loved the first top. I hesitate buying cheap China made garments. They only last a few washes then look shoddy. I have a motto: buy cheap buy twice ❤️💜🧡

[@Mollylife-6666]

Love the tops they all look lovely on you , funny billy smarts circus as used to be 10 mins from where we live , memories. Lol 😊

[@sazguest]

The geometric mustard top was my favourite. Shame about the lime green dress I think it was just that the v-neckline was too high. Are these all from the same seller? When you return do you have to pay and do they have to go back to China? Sorry for the rookie questions I was just wondering how much of a hassle it was to return stuff. X

[@CarolineMrsM]

Hiya, their return address is in the UK, and you just have to pay the postage to return. They were all except one from the same seller.

[@badbiscuit]

Shall we all try getting into the dress?? Even with us being 2m apart, it could be possible.

[@CarolineMrsM]

I reckon it would!

[@ellieharrison2942]

Loved the last 2 on you. But you didn't! Lol the lime green one was very slimming on you. It looked bloody luverly!!! Xx

[@sophiegafney4597]

The beige patterned dress that is too big, why don't you try taking the long corded tassels off of the neck and stitching them on the waistband at the back to tie at the front as a belt? Or use a wide black belt on it? Soph. x

[@patsyadams1833]

Morning Caroline, I have struggled with this video. Even before the virus I try not to buy from China, I cannot reconcile myself to support a country with such appalling animal and human rights issues. Having caused a major pandemic and watching the world reel they have worked hard to make a profit out of our collective crisis. I don't normally make political comments but I be never felt so strongly about an issue..

[@CarolineMrsM]

Absolutely fair enough, probably best to scroll past this one then. :)

[@patsyadams1833]

@@CarolineMrsM sorry, I do hope I haven't offended. You are absolutely right

[@CarolineMrsM]

@@patsyadams1833 Not at all, Patsy, everybody's entitled to their views, and you expressed them clearly and politely. We are all grown ups here, no offence taken at all :)

[@pamelaatkinsonscats2873]

I liked all the tops, particularly the embroidered ones, and it's great that they were all in natural fibres. I thought that last top looked really nice on you. With dresses and skirts, I'm not a fan of the maxi length in general, I prefer a midi length like the lime green one. The dresses didn't seem as well made as the tops.

[@CarolineMrsM]

I agree about maxis, I find it difficult to wear them, being short. I think you need to be fairly tall and slim to pull off a maxi dress.

[@pamelaatkinsonscats2873]

Caroline (Mrs M) I agree, they look OK on tall people. I'm only 5'3 as well and I feel swamped by maxis.

Golly ...that massive dress is what my daughters and myself would call a "moo moo " I don't know where we had the saying from!!!

[@janetlomax2295]

The dresses not so much, but all the tops looked good on you, even the one you think is a little short. But if your not sure, i always say no, or there stuck in your wardrobe taking up a valuable hanger that could be used for something else that you love. Thanks Caroline, good try on haul. Reminds me of normal times!! 🤣🤣❤
