This jumper and this skirt both only have a 'navy' option, but they are cobalt blue in the pictures - does this mean they only have navy left, or that they are calling cobalt blue navy, or that the photography is rubbish and makes navy look like bright blue?

They call this snood royal blue, so they obviously know the difference between bright blue and navy...

I went into a new branch last week and although I thought they clothes were lovely in a quirky way, they would not generally suit my curvy, boob-heavy figure at all Sad. Very different colours too....which is good!

I think they call that navy I live near Cos am in there a lot and loads of that colour atm

You didn't happen to see the jumper and skirt I linked to did you Willem? Would really like them if they are bright blue :)

Hmm for 'they' read 'their'

I'm not sure that I saw those items in particular (I was desperately looking something with a V neck) but there were certainly lots of clothes in that colour-way - DSis and I were saying that it's almost the electric blue that was very fashionable in the 80s - but not quite....

I think I had too much wine to drink last night Blush - seem incapable of writing a coherent sentence this morning Hmm

Don't worry Willem, you are making perfect sense!

Their clothes are very different to the norm in colours and styles, so fantastic if you can wear them, ElizabethBathory - lucky you!

Was there today and it is the bright blue really beautiful colour.

ElizabethBathory · 06/11/2013 14:35
