Do you like something like this - says its a cape but i don't think it is? Nice if you can live with the flappy sleeves! Shame the M&S one was no good as it sounded lovely.

Oh just remembered, my friend has this one from Debenhams and it looks great with jeans or black trousers. Similar to the nice ones FairyMum has picked out.

There is a nice one in the new Boden winter collection.

noddyholder · 30/09/2008 17:30

cod i love that cape The grey would make me look like a big round mouse though but black is good and not too expensive.Unfortuntely i refuse to do boden as brighton is over run with it!

have you tried esprit? they sometimes have nice jackets

bundle · 30/09/2008 17:34

esprit website won't let me link - look in esprit.co.uk
under women
coats/jackets - then click jackets, there's a bikerish thing that looks good, £95 though, how much did you want to spend?

noddyholder · 30/09/2008 17:43
