A top of this very colour

I have bought this from Cos but you need to be quite tall to pull it off and I am only 5.2", I have sized down as much as possible but I still look pregnant in it (I am 50, so not the look I am going for). The colour is so stunning though, it really brightens up my face and I feel lovely. Has anyone seen tops of this very colour that are suitable for work? Nothing too oversized but equally, nothing too clingy. Would rather avoir polyester and acrylic.

This looks a similar colour and is loose fitting

Try Kettlewell
[https://www.kettlewellcolours.co.uk/products/all/item/darcey-scoop-long-sleeve This] is more fitted.
Or if you click on their colour chart
[https://www.kettlewellcolours.co.uk/colours Here]
And scroll through the blues If you find the right colour click on it & it will bring up their things in that colour.

Sorry, mucked up the links by not using double brackets.

May be less voluminous?

Sorry, that link doesn’t work. Blush

I would describe it as cornflower blue, if that helps the search. It isn’t bluebell, which has a touch of lilac to it.

Thank you all. I feel the mint velvet one is the closest, although I suspect still too big for someone my height. It is helpful to know it's called cornflower blue.
