I actually got this in blue and sent back. A good fit - I'm tall and large - but over-busy, verging on naff, I thought. The word 'funky' is not usually a good sign!

Of course, now it's reduced am such a sucker that I'm wondering if I should reconsider, and order in grey. Has quite a lot of keen reviews - but not necessarily from people whose tastes are the same as mine.

Was I right all along, or are the enthusiastic reviewers right??

I like it but it looks more wintery than summery to me- possibly why its in the sale? But I am a firm beleiver in going with your instincts, so if you ordered it and didn't like it I think that tells you something.

Yup, agree about instincts, just wondering if the grey option would soften the busy effect. It would be for wearing now really on cooler days, not in proper summer (if we get one).

The grey is definitely more wearable than the other colours. And I agree about needing stuff to wear for 97% of the "spring/summer" season when tis rather less than hot!

What size are you OP? If you are looking for a nice tunic this looks good in the clearance section but only available in 18 or 20.

Thanks for that,tulpe, that is indeed a nice tunic and I have it in the grey - have had lots of wear out of it over the winter. As i did with their spot one.

Unfortunately, because of my colouring, anything in the pink-red spectrum doesn't sut me so the berry is out for me. You obviously have great taste from your posts, so your not ruling the grey 'funky' (!) out encourages me to consider.
