Wanted - going out top

8 replies

MyVegasBaby · 18/10/2014 21:26

I have a definite gap in my wardrobe for more dressy tops that I can wear out in the evening with skinnies and heels. I'd like one to wear to a couple of nights out next month, would wear with black coated skinnies. I'd like a bit of a sleeve, short is fine but not thin straps, and long enough to cover tummy. Quite fancy red or another strong/ bold colour. Haven't seen anything that takes my fancy lately. Any suggestions?

Depends what you like.

If you have norks like me and need something which covers armhole gap then this is excellent (can't link but not online) it was a gold tshirt top in River Island it was there a few weeks ago can't have sold out!

There are a few below:-

The Ted Baker one comes in black, pink and blue all are nice but am tempted by it in pink. what does anyone think of it for me? blonde, 5 ft 4 with norks.

Actually if you are about a size 10 and smaller norks I actually have an old Gap silk top (v good condition) which has ruffles at sleeves but sleeveless. Too small for me now! So could sell etc.

Ooh thanks for those links. Like the Ted Baker one in blue and the Cos one.

MyVegas - yes I was really sold on the Ted ones too only as they seem more classic and aren't hideously expensive for that brand.

MyVegasBaby · 19/10/2014 19:56

Going to see if I can find a Ted Baker nearby to have a look in the flesh. Am in London in the week for a few meeting so will try and see if I can fit a visit to Cos in too.

MyVegas can you let me know what the fit is like on both please? Smile

I do have a Ted Baker concession in a nearby work department store but no idea if it has that top.
