I dont know whether to laugh or cry...

He put a lot of thought into it. He spend a lot of money (for us) on it but its just such a bizarre present I dont quite know what to say...

It's a spirit hood

I tried it on and I look like I should be in a stage production of 'cats'

I want one!

shinydiscoball · 03/02/2011 20:10

Oooh I really really like it! Your DH is lovely :o

Bunbaker · 03/02/2011 20:11

Those of you who like it. Are you for real?

Wallace · 03/02/2011 20:15

It looks warm...

SixtyFootDoll · 03/02/2011 20:15

I have seen a few slebs pictured wearing them auch as Pink and Rhianna, they are ob cool in the US.
I wouldnt wear it though

tiredfeet · 03/02/2011 20:21

Oh help I just laughed so hard I woke up ds Grin

FellatioNelson · 03/02/2011 20:25

I think if you look like the model in the pics and wear it about town in an ironic way it could be very cool. But if you are over 35 and are mostly seen in the suburbs with some shopping bags and a Ford Focus you will look a bit of a plank.

Tether stole my question - where did he go? Narnia??

OMFG - it was bad enough on the original link, but the colour of the second link - just OMFG.

I would be wetting my knickers if I saw someone wearing this on the school run - or anywhere in fact!

ChippingInSmellyCheeseFreak · 03/02/2011 20:38

Fellatio - have you been spying on me??

FellatioNelson · 03/02/2011 20:47

Well it was just a hunch. Wink I know I'd look like a total plank in it!

marriednotdead · 03/02/2011 21:36

I have real tears running down my face Grin

Never again will I complain that I get sod all in the way of spontaneous presents!

It's trumped all of the monstrous jumpers mum has bought me over the years; something I believed impossible until now.

tribpot · 03/02/2011 21:43

I dare you to wear it on the school run. Just strut into the playground like 'whaaat?' and see what happens.

merrywidow · 04/02/2011 00:38

YANBU

Monadami · 04/02/2011 02:38

Aah how sweet and slightly daft. It will keep you warm at least.

diddl · 04/02/2011 09:24

It´s hideous.

Not so much the idea of a furry hooded cape type thing although the ears are a leetle too much.

The idea of channelling the animal´s spirit??

I mean WTF-who goes in for that crap?

I´d be really insulted if my husband bought me that.

hmmSleep · 04/02/2011 09:37

Shock Confused Grin amazing how one item of clothing can bring out so many different emotions.

switchtvoffdosomelessboring · 04/02/2011 11:22

You could cut it and make it into a scarf that you could hide under your jacket

Aerobreaking · 04/02/2011 11:30

I like it. If it makes it any better, I'm in London and I've seen quite a few of these around and there aren't many hunters around here.
It is FAB!

Aerobreaking · 04/02/2011 11:32

(although have just seen the fur colour yours is - much prefer the one in the first link. If that makes it any better?)

Oh my.....you have to tell the man....he might go out and buy you one of those fleeces next, with wolves on it.

You simply cannot wear this item. His heart's in the right place, bless him but, f**k's sake woman, you'll look like one of those foundlings brought up in the woods, by a family of wolves. Watch out, I think there's a full moon this weekend!

Owwwww!

BrainThrustMastery · 04/02/2011 12:02

Why not team it up with something like this? Gorgeous and understated Grin

BrainThrustMastery · 04/02/2011 12:03

Ooops, just saw your message wendi

Well...we can't both be wrong? Hmm

steamedtreaclesponge · 04/02/2011 12:05

Ooh I love it! I would definitely wear that. Looks lovely and warm too...

HecateQueenOfWitches · 04/02/2011 12:06

oh my.

erm.
