as long as you avoid denim you should be okay shurely

i bloody looked and zara dont have one.\ it might be as much as a waste of time as my annual search for knee high boots that are long and not wellies ( now in abeyance after discovery of top shop ambush boots) and flat front winter shorts that arent like something out of £it aint half hot mum"

I might go for that, Noddy - been wistfully remembering a navy one I had in the eighties but failing to find anything similar. Beige will do Smile.

I'm sure I've come across a few white ones on my search - Banana Republic had a white sort of tweedy one afair?

I love the whole suit it is great for teh price

ShotgunNotDoingThePans · 13/05/2012 16:32

True - I've just bought a cream one with light red stripes which I think should go with it.

ShotgunNotDoingThePans · 13/05/2012 16:35

Banana Republic - they do have a few white ones.
