Help! A navy top to go with cream wide leg trousers for a wedding?

I was thinking I'd like a navy wrap top to go with my cream linen flat front, wide leg trousers but I seem to be out of luck, I can't find any navy wrap tops.

Have any of you lovely ladies seen a navy top that might fit the bill?

Love, love, love the Monsoon one! Unfortunately it's out of my budget but I'm bookmarking it just to go back and look at, gorgeous!

I think the Kalico linen one might be a winner - do you think red shoes and accessories would go?

Red would be good, or maybe coral. Softer and very up to date.

what y' think of this? Can't decide if the detail is red or coral.

MrsHende · 21/05/2012 22:37

Oooh! Coral! Good call - I'd love a wee coral manicure and pedicure!

That scarf is fab, I love a stripe!

How much over budget is the monsoon one and what's the accessory budget? With a top like that and linen trousers you can afford cheap accessories IYSWIM. Could we maybe make it balance out for you?

bag 12 quid - would be perfect.
white flats 20 quid lovely
orange wedges 20 quid
navy wedge 15 quid

What you think? love the orange shoes.

(and you get loads of wear out of it - much more versatile than the kaliko one - nice as it is)

MrsHende · 24/05/2012 11:08

Lettuce, thank you so much for your help!

I've ordered the knotted top from House of Fraser - the Kalico one didn't have my size.

My budget is super tight so I'm borrowing accessories from friends, have got a navy clutch bag so now I'm going to try and scrounge either red or coral shoes and get myself a wee nail polish to match.

Thanks again!! Thanks
