I spent the whole of the latter part of my pregnancy with DS2 (last summer) praying for a top like one of these.

However, as I am no longer pregnant, but still look it, I will be steering clear

Tesco have some longer length vests atm. Ribbed. Can't remember what colours though.

hitchcock · 10/04/2007 19:06

roseylea · 10/04/2007 19:07

I kind of like these in a funny kind of way!

I'm quite small on top (little A cup norks and size 10 body) so I can probably get away with them.

Topshop had some v. cool ones in a while ago - I like this one altho it's not everyone's cuppa tea, I understand that!

moondog · 10/04/2007 19:09

Gufaw at charmkin and roseyle's offerings.
Someone is really taking the piss eh?

roseylea · 10/04/2007 19:13

au contraire Moondog!

I would wear that top, honest! with jeans and wedges.

OrvilleRedenbacher · 10/04/2007 19:14

moondog · 10/04/2007 19:15

Oi! [thwacks Moondog round the head with summer handbag that's come out abit early}

Tatties · 10/04/2007 19:17

I quite like them

HonorMatopoeia · 10/04/2007 19:17

I lurve them , but then again I am pregnant and I tend to avoid the curtain look!

moondog · 10/04/2007 19:17

I'm sure you will look delightful Rosey and hey! I'm all for that Jackie mag 70s vibe meself.
Have recently purchased all manner of cheesecloth and garishly patterned ensembles to go with big flarey jeans and clonky wooden wedges.

I know my limits however...

hitchcock · 10/04/2007 19:18

i love them 2 i am an 18 covers bits that i dont want people noticing

flutterbee · 10/04/2007 19:20

Actually if you are very overweight (like me) they look lovely.

flutterbee · 10/04/2007 19:22
