very similar different

I have one from Gap - two years old but they still have them I think. It has a detachable furry hood if you're set on one, but I've never really understood hoods on bodywarmers. I mean, if it's raining, your arms would get wet...

Anyway - it is exceptionally warm.

I do like a couple of the principles ones, not keen on the tartan fatface number though...

I've got the one in your first link inamuckingfuddle, it is v snuggly and the hood it detachable for those with aversions to furry hoods . It's about hip length on me, is that too short? I am 5'7"

thanks flowery beanbag, I am 5'7 too, so should be ok, hip length is more flattering to rear view too, I think

flowerybeanbag · 29/10/2007 18:45

Indeed! Get it and try it on at home, worse case scenario you have to send it back, but I love mine, rear view and everything!

Are you serious, Pouch? Must my 34DDs and I forswear the way of the gilet? (That's my norkage, BTW, not thirty-four daughters).

lizandlulu · 29/10/2007 21:00
