Any ideas where to find dinky little cardies?

Childrens dept? -no really, might do the trick.

snowleopard · 03/08/2007 09:52

Jigsaw has nice ones - not cheap though. Also try White Stuff, Fat Face, Kew, M&S? Oh and I'm sure Boden can help out!

kookaburra · 03/08/2007 09:52

lol! worth a try - might strain a bit...

Boden

kookaburra · 03/08/2007 09:53

thanks, was resisting Boden unless in extremis, nothing against them , just that we are in Dorset next week and might look a bit identikit...

Hmm but a plain dinky cardigan wouldn't be too recognisable... it would only be a worry only if you got a "sassy"/"fun" (bleurgh) one with spots and buttons...

Brora. £££ but worth it.

Oh cod, you can change. Embrace you inner Nigella

Brora website was very educational! Do people really spend that much on a cardigan? Wouldn't go over £20 myself. (Especially on something that would obviously get ruined in the washing machine.)

kookaburra · 03/08/2007 20:43

The thing is, when sitting in the garden of an evening, get a bit chilly - what do ou put on? Surely not a Lands End Raincoat?
There are acres of gorgous dresses about, seem a shame to cover 'em with a millets fleece.

expatinscotland · 03/08/2007 20:51

My mother had loads of cardies like this. They are from Calvin Klein.

I beg her to give me some and she doesn't.

Cow.

JackieNo · 03/08/2007 20:53

How mean of her, expat.

JackieNo · 03/08/2007 20:54

kookaburra · 03/08/2007 21:00
