I have been looking for the 'perfect' bottle green jumper for about 2 years now.

I have bought this www.whistles.co.uk/fcp/product/whistlesmia-cashmere-boxy/903000060936 from Whistles but I am going to take it back as it's already going bobbly and I haven't even worn it yet.

Has anyone else tried Whistles cashmere - is it as bobbly as it seems, recon it might look like an old dishrag after a few washes.

And I have bought this www.meandem.com/collection/winter-boyfriend-jumper/products_id/1597/cPath/1007_1008_1018?osCsid=qdqojgt1krch6j8mn4utsrvbi7 but I am sending it back because in RL it is a teeny bit petrol rather than a rich forest colour.

I am going demented about finding this. I bought one from BHS last year and took it back as it went shit and baggy and bobbly after one wash.

Anything with a drop shoulder makes me look wide as a house, raglan sleeve is best.

There's one in Jigsaw at the moment that is also nearly perfect, but clings weirdly.

I am not a snob, would buy something cheap. £200 absolutely top maximum price (last time I went into Eric Bompard they had hardly any colours left and I hate having to buy a large when I'm only a 12.

You lot are my last hope!

Any good?

FluffyJumper · 15/11/2013 22:42

Ooh, I am definitely ordering that. I'm suspecting the shoulders might be a bit wide in ratio to the waistband and that combo makes me look really frumpy - but def worth a try!

Can't believe I got such a quick reply, should have posted here last year! Anybody got any other ideas?

Check phase eight. I saw some lovely forest green wool tops in there.

Toast?

EyeOfNewtBigtoesOfFrog · 16/11/2013 21:10

ooh and another one

FluffyJumper · 16/11/2013 21:16

Ooooh, that first toast one looks perfect!

Will have a look in phase 8 too.

H&M had some lovely bottle green jumpers - not sure of the style/fit though. It was the colour that caught my eye whilst trying to get a screaming toddler out of the shop!

they had a gorgeous bottle green jumper in fat face yesterday that I nearly bought. Unfortunately their website is crap and doesn't have everything that's in the store online
