Love very plain clothes and I think this is a bit of a bargain, what do you reckon?

It looks like something a dystopian war council member would wear

Well I definitely wouldn't be wearing with a 'pant suit' 😂 I was thinking more about skinnies, jumper and boots with a oh so hated MN scarf.

I think this is really cool. Could be old lady if you are an old lady but otherwise could be made look really trendy with the right accessories.

I think you could style this to look great, it needs to be worn as part of casual outfit I think, and possibly a fairly neutral palette. Skinny jeans, low heeled ankle boots or superga style trainers, understated top. I would only wear it done up if I had a blanket style scarf/shawl on with it.

I'd never have thought of it myself but the Hilary Clinton comment is so true (but only with a pantsuit and the 'right' hair)

Well I am a bit old but not quite ready for a twinset and pearls just yet. I like that it's so plain, I've ordered it anyway so I'll let you know if people start saluting me when they walk past. Grin

I like it. I would also like to be part of the dystopian war council. Maybe the two are connected?

My first thought was Clinton too, I'm sure she as wearing something similar in cream at trumps inauguration. 😱

I wore a similar style to this (though in a beige boucle wool with collar...so not similar really!) all Autumn and will through Spring, with skinnies, low heeled boots, a long sleeved tshirt and big scarf. I love this look, so comfortable and not at all granny.

I think styled as you suggest with some funky shoes, skinnies and a scarf it would be great. Not sure how it would look undone though if it's not as chilly?
