Hi Ladies

Have been lurking here for a while but this is my first post. I am 32 weeks pg and need a bit of assistance to tell me whether the top in below link is genuinely nice or if my pesky hormones are playing tricks on me:

Also, while I'm here, does anyone have any recommendations on where I can find a nice jersey blazer (preferably navy or grey marl?) Have been eyeing the Boden one but the twee lining puts me off a bit, as does the fact that it's dry clean only - my 16 month old has no respect for such strictures.

Thanks in advance!

Amber

That's great.
I like it.
Jersey blazer?
Isn't that a strange choice of material for one??

FirstTimeMum1 · 07/05/2011 08:08

I like it! I might buy it myself.....

I have tha Uniqlo blazer, I love it it's super useful but I ould say its a "shrunken" fit IYSWIM, very itted and shortish sleeves, not a wider style or boyfriend cut like lots ofother blazers. Doesnt put me off but just thouht I ould mention it.

I love that stripey vest!

Ooh, thanks ladies. Thought that top had a touch of Prada about it... Made my mind up to it, though probably won't try stretching it over my rather generous bump!

PinkOlives - loving the orange Zara number, but I suppose not v practical with a toddler :(

Gillybobs - have seen the uniqlo ones in store but not tried on yet. Shrunken sounds good though - boyfriend styles don't tend to suit
me as I'm size 8/10 but with boobs & hips, plus not the tallest!

I bought the Uniqlo blazer this week. I love it, 3/4 sleeves, lightweight.
