I think it looks fine but is it one of those items that price = MUST be sure it will be a wardrobe staple? Only you can do that cost-benefit analysis :)

I think it looks good - but I like things which are fitted at the waist as otherwise I can look a bit boxy. I also was sent a 20% discount I can share if that sways you any.

Those flamingo shoes are a Must, Pip.

Yes I agree. Hmm, I'll sleep on it.

I know what you mean about fitted thing Lily. I'm just not used to fitted stuff :)).

I agree that it looks really lovely on but I totally get the fitted thing.

I like my jumpers on the slouchy side but they don't tend to be as flattering as ones that are slightly more fitted.

I agree with both Derek and Lily* here - no point spending money on something that will languish at the back of the wardrobe!

*as in I like it and I like the fact it's got a waist

I think it looks really lovely and flattering too. But there's only a point in keeping it if you're happy with it and will wear and enjoy it.

It looks lovely, and good that it's different.

I'm totally buying the shoes. But I'm going to hold on for the chance of a discount code for a couple of weeks first.

Thank you all. I'll have a look again in the morning and see how I feel about it.

I think it's lovely and wouldn't say it's too fitted.

This may or may not help you with your decision ;) :))
Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me either, just fuck off and leave me alone.

Picture me devastated. The flamingo pumps are sold out online. :cry: I was about to justify them through having thrown a pair of shoes out this morning for having a hole in too.

If your back's against the wall, turn around and write on it.

There's a stick finder on the desktop site; I'll try that first when I can get to it.

Since the shoes will not be mine, I might get this to say well done for being on your own in Wales and not being a complete tool for 2.5 days.

That's cute Pip. I'm sorry about the 'mingo shoes.
