£95

i really like it, but just wondered if it worth that?

OP posts:

My immediate response is that it is not worth £95. Especially when in just a few months time it may be too loose. I have checked the website and it isn't even current season....it is really nice though.

No! Go to Top Shop and buy something from their Unique range that you really love for the same price. Obviously this is not helpful if you can't get to Oxford st branch.

No, no, definitely not! With your figure you have way more choice than that!

its a wrap style so am maybe thinking IF i do loose anymore weight (3rd baby!!) that it may fit, but i saw that it wasnt on their website....but i need one for a week saturday. I don't do posh dresses and htought this may be ok for pub, day, etc. Occasion is wedding evening thing, but relaxed do iyswim

Scorpio, am I being blind? I can only see that is says starting bid £0.99 . I would definitely not pay £95 for it even though it is lovely. Surely they are not even that much brand new?

Jewelsandgems · 01/07/2008 13:09

Sorry yes you said that in your post... I am being a bit dense, it's been a long day! Hope you find something nice though. I had a look at Monsoon website for you but nothing struck me as perfect!
