Yay or nay? I am a 14-16. Fancy something a bit different. Would something like this make me look fab or frump?

I love 'em. I have a beautiful one from Zara with butterflies on that I'm getting quite worried about wearing out. I think you need fitted long sleeve t shirts underneath or else it all gets too flowing and you feel like Anita Pallenberg c.1970. But once your kimono top is over the t shirt all the bulgy bits (well mine, and I'm 14-16) covered up rather than revealed as they would be, alas, by a fitted t shirt.

Thanks niminy! I've just bought the one on sale at DP. I tried on one in Primark a few months ago and I thought I looked the business (ie, you couldn't see my bulges) but friend talked me out of it.

They are different and I don't think you'll have to worry about being somewhere with someone else wearing the same thing

PS I'm sure that Per Una Speziale range must have something like this.

Annanymous - miaow!

I quite like them, have been eyeing some myself, although not that Sainsbos top - a bit too wacky. I think Topshop might have some in? On my phone so can't google.
