Ooops I meant Marant. The length would be good on me I just know it - I did wonder about Zara but find the quality of their embroidery is recently a bit crap and also a lot of polyester.

Yes you do need to spend more for decent embroidery.

Haven't I seen embroidered white blouses in Wrap or Poetry catalogues?

I'll have a look at wrap but have found their sizing enormous and their customer service shockingly bad.

I tried one last year in an 8 and would say it was more like a 12 - very long and broad in the shoulder.

And when I returned it they took about 3 weeks to refund and were very rude on the phone when I chased it.

Oh and I had to pay to return it with signed for delivery which was £££ and would be even more so now with the Royal Mail price increases so was very put off ordering from them. Which is a shame as some of their stuff looks nice.

Yes not quite right Shotgun but thanks for looking. Perhaps I'll just have to wait for the sales - I've seen the coral version on matches and only need it to be reduced by about 70% [because that will happen] Wink

Oh I like that white co one but wonder how voluminous it would be - however have a 20% code some where so could be worth a try - especially if I could do the half tucked in thing with it.

The anthropolgoie one is nice too - am going to London in a few weeks so will go and take a look.

Thank you!

Oh I missed that TheConstantLurker and MrsCB, I may have to buy it now! Grin As with all H&M bonkers sizing, does it come up big or small..?
