Love very plain clothes and I think this is a bit of a bargain, what do you reckon?

It's very Hilary Clinton.

It looks like something a dystopian war council member would wear

WilburIsSomePig · 24/01/2017 17:14

Well I definitely wouldn't be wearing with a 'pant suit' 😂 I was thinking more about skinnies, jumper and boots with a oh so hated MN scarf.

😃😃 dystopian war council !

I think this is really cool. Could be old lady if you are an old lady but otherwise could be made look really trendy with the right accessories.

I like it!

plimsolls · 24/01/2017 19:48

I think you could style this to look great, it needs to be worn as part of casual outfit I think, and possibly a fairly neutral palette. Skinny jeans, low heeled ankle boots or superga style trainers, understated top. I would only wear it done up if I had a blanket style scarf/shawl on with it.

I'd never have thought of it myself but the Hilary Clinton comment is so true (but only with a pantsuit and the 'right' hair)

Well I am a bit old but not quite ready for a twinset and pearls just yet. I like that it's so plain, I've ordered it anyway so I'll let you know if people start saluting me when they walk past. Grin

I like it. I would also like to be part of the dystopian war council. Maybe the two are connected?

MumUndone · 24/01/2017 20:26

Love it!

MumUndone · 24/01/2017 20:26

Love it!

My first thought was Clinton too, I'm sure she as wearing something similar in cream at trumps inauguration. 😱

Acornantics · 24/01/2017 20:39

I wore a similar style to this (though in a beige boucle wool with collar...so not similar really!) all Autumn and will through Spring, with skinnies, low heeled boots, a long sleeved tshirt and big scarf. I love this look, so comfortable and not at all granny.

Well.... it is the look I want to create!!!!

fiorentina · 25/01/2017 11:38

I think styled as you suggest with some funky shoes, skinnies and a scarf it would be great. Not sure how it would look undone though if it's not as chilly?

Truckingalong · 25/01/2017 13:11

Love it but it says sold out!

WilburIsSomePig · 25/01/2017 13:24

I think I might have got the last one Trucking, ordered it yesterday so will post a pic when it comes.
