Boden ravello top

Just ordered some more as they're my "over heated room work place" staple.
I'm toying between the two bird ones. Grey or navy. Son says he likes both but I fear two bird tops might make me look nuts.

Anyone bothered to opine?

I'm all about sleeveless silky shirts for work atm.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 19/09/2014 20:50

Nooooooooooooo I didn't even link to the floral - it was Ravello navy leopard.

Does anyone have Rosalyn? I'm about suspicious that they don't show a model wearing it...

My new place is all short dresses bare legs and heels, it's ace. Last place was competitive scruffiness.

I bought one last year in navy with print, like it.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 19/09/2014 21:18

Jumper?

ThisBitchIsResting · 19/09/2014 21:29

You can at mine apparently Smile

Twinklestein · 19/09/2014 21:29

Definitely not birds, they're over, I would get it in plain colours.

Yup. I've already said I need contrast. Not plain

I can read, but I think you might regret birds, particularly if you work in a school 'Caw miss..'

I've got plain purple, grey tiny spots and the rather knackered cream one.

If anyone else likes sleeveless, TK Maxx has lots of Paul Costelloe tops in at the moment. The pics look awful on the website but they're lovely, long in the body and loose/ flattering, I have 3. Here

Rosalyn looks great, the pink is esp v pretty. I like Ravello in plain or leopard print. I also really like that leopard print top, too. Not a bird print lover, but the grey is def better than the blue. It's amazing how hard it is to find good printed clothes.

And, now you can sleep tonight having had my input Wink

BelindaAllWorkedOut · 19/09/2014 22:02

You have grey w spots? I really like spots. Am wearing a spotted top today and realised that I esp like tops w slightly unevenly spaced spots. Little detail, but it looks much better IMO.

lurkingaround · 19/09/2014 22:21

Oh yes I like irregular spots too. When I'm wearing 'regular' spots I find myself looking at them and drawing connecting lines all day....

BelindaAllWorkedOut · 19/09/2014 22:23

I agree,lurking, one can't stop being distracted by regular spots.

I wish the leopard wasn't jn navy and that odd brown. Otherwise lovely.
