Do you want sleeves, what colour, what length, budget, is it a posh do or more casual? Just to narrow things down a bit!

I'm not a dissimilar sounding shape to you and I have something very much like this which is very flattering.

I like the last phase-eight one barking linked to, but it might be a bit too warm if the weather is good.
I'm struggling to open the links on the iPad but will battle on.
