I prefer the first one. But at the price of either of them for everydaywear (and prob a bit too!)

I like the cashmere one. Looks gorgeous and decadent

Mcdreamy · 23/10/2009 14:01

I love the first one.

Amandoh · 23/10/2009 14:03

Love the Henley (2nd link) in the damson colour.

I tried on the cashmere, it is lovely and soft but (on me, anyway) was...frumpy, somehow. Can't quite fathom why - it was something about the v-neck empire line that flattened me out and looked horrible. I should add that I am a tall slim size 10, so it may actually be better with more curves and more cleavage! But it was SO soft.

I like the cashmere one, but to be honest I wouldn't buy either because they are both handwash or dry clean only It is gorgeous though.

roary · 23/10/2009 14:27

I have a slight, ahem, cashmere problem. I wash it all on the delicate cycle in the washing machine and it comes out perfectly (have been doing it for years). So don't let it put you off cashmere, moaningminnie!

theagedparent · 23/10/2009 14:34

The first one is nicer. In red.

MacaroonIncident · 23/10/2009 15:54

there is a peruna cardi( i think) we walked past that seemed to have my cat on the collar. the boys noticed.

roary · 23/10/2009 15:55

Jajas,
Yes, wash on cold and in your wool cycle (or delicate or handwash). You want the minimum agitation and spin your machine has (on mine this seems to be delicate rather than wool). You have to shape them slightly afterwards and dry flat as you would if you had handwashed. I use Woolite but any delicate washing detergent will do the job.

Sorry for hijack.

MacaroonIncident · 23/10/2009 15:55

miaow

bodycolder · 23/10/2009 15:57

quite denimy coloured and nice sleeves

MacaroonIncident · 23/10/2009 15:58

CybilEngineer · 23/10/2009 15:59

like the necklace in that per una picture

bodycolder · 23/10/2009 16:03

this is the one I meant not the other although i like both but have only seen slate one

MacaroonIncident · 23/10/2009 16:03

i like

crankytwanky · 23/10/2009 16:09

I prefer the 1st one, although I'd be too scared to wear it in case I got butter/poo on it.

CybilEngineer · 23/10/2009 16:10

the per una one looks like my Kew dress/tunic thingys I bought which have been sooo useful.

PuppyMonkey · 23/10/2009 16:16

Both are too expensive imho. I'd be a bit wary of horizontal stripes, me, too.
