Ok, I feel a bit nervous venturing into the hallows of Style and Beauty.

I have a question please- yesterday, while bringing DD2 for her dental appointment, a lady in the waiting room with her child, had on a lovely navy sweatshirt.
I can't stop thinking about it and have Googled to no avail.

It was navy, plain and simple, but, was enlivened by a strip across the chest. The narrow stripe was white with possibly navy and red mini stripes through it- possibly grosgrain, rather than printed. The stripe ended in a bow of the same pattern, on her left side.

She had on some dark wash slim Salsa jeans, had a white shirt poking though and some lovely loafers. The overall effect was v v stylish (if you are reading!).

Any ideas where it might be from?? Please help oh handmaidens of style Grin

I thought Tommy Hilfiger, but the bow was not their style. Ted Baker, but possibly a bit plain for there. Boden?- I can't see anything on their site.
Much Wine and Flowers for effort.

No idea, but following - it sounds lovely!

Yes Tokyo it was v stylish. I'm a stripe-y top and navy trousers type of person, with occasional forays into navy top and jeans.
So, yes, I'm a copycat....

Always, always ask! - I do this every time I admire something and people are always flattered (it’s nice to get a compliment on one’s taste), plus I get to get my hands on the item.

Can’t help you on this specific item, sorry!

Oh Nink that's usually good advice, but given where we were, the number of people that could overhear, and the probability of running into her again, I would have been embarrassed to ask. I would have seemed a bit odd and stalkery.

Could it be Thom Browne? Maybe a previous season? Grosgrain and bows are very much his style, eg this from this season: www.thombrowne.com/uk/shopping/oversized-crew-navy-sweatshirt-13558633

Ooh good call peach it's definitely in that style "set" (for want of a better descriptor).

Cant see the one that I am stalking saw the other day

No I couldn't find one that sounded like the one you were describing but I wonder if it's a previous collection. Have you tried ebay?
