Nice. I got a similar one from great plains last week.

Really nice. Apart from the cocking cowl neck. They look rubbish on me. Gorgeous colour though.

FluffyMummy123 · 20/12/2011 17:51

This the outfit I got from GP. Top is lovely on. Have decided cowl necks are the way to go for me.
What colour did you get cod?

Fregley · 20/12/2011 18:02

Fregley · 20/12/2011 18:02

DrNortherner · 20/12/2011 18:03

I'm not a fan of cowl necks. I keep fiddling with myself.

DrNortherner · 20/12/2011 18:03

Fregley · 20/12/2011 18:07

noddyholder · 20/12/2011 18:09

Love the mint velvet one Not sure about wooly, looks a bit like the new waterfall to me think I could look a bit mumsy in that.

Fregley · 20/12/2011 19:17

yes but LOW on neckline suprisingly

Fregley · 20/12/2011 19:17

( ie work)

You know, I went into a young things fashion shop the other day because they'd had a cowl-neck, batwing top in the window that I liked. I asked them where the cowl-neck, batwing top they had had in the window was and could I try one and each assistant in turn looked at me like I was blethering. They had no idea what I was talking about with any of those terms. Perhaps top they got.

I thought I must be about 300 years old. I'm glad 'cowl' is still a word.

I love the mint velvet ones. Since they have a stretchy back they are sooooo comfy on and don't pull over the boobs.
I loved the red lipstick coloured one - but don't think it was my colour - so sent it back. I kept the silvery, large spotted cowl necked one. Will keep an eye on those 2 you linked to cod as that IS my colour - will see if they do a sneaky discount or sale at some point in the near future.
