I am going shopping in a few hours. I want to buy four new tops. I need 3 long tunic style tops - one brown, one black and one grey. I like high or roll necks (or to be able to wear a thin roll neck underneath). I want to wear them in the day over jeggins, leggings etc.

I also need something a bit special for going out for a special meal in Italy next week which I plan to wear with my new dark denim jeans. Needs to be long sleeved.

I am a size 12, quite tall (though I don't need tall clothes) and have long brown hair and green eyes.

Has anyone seen anything on their shopping travels?

TIA.

Planet tunic

Monsoon has this (not high neck though)
Shada Woven Mix tunic
fancy Lexinton tunic with flower detail

slight hi-jack - mm - was it you that replied to my thread about thin wool long sleeved polonecks t'other day ?

If you have time to wait for delivery the Outnet have got some quite bargainous layering tops in by Vanessa Bruno, have just bought

this

this

and this

and this cardy but that's coz I got a bit carried away , it might go back as I don't really need another cardy, although the current cold snap is making me think all woolies are essential purchases at the mo !

Fab, a thread has been started.

I am off shopping tomorrow - dh biking today so only fair!!

I really want some tunicy style tops to wear with leggings and boots.

Anyone seen any non-wool ones, ie more floaty fabric, but don't look like maternity smocks iyswim??

Thank you

Anyone???

Please!!!!!

Am on iPhone which is playing up so no links but....

La Redoute is worth a look. I keep on about it but I have several tops from there I love. Also google Vero Moda. I have 2 floaty tunics from there I wear a lot. In terms of shops-Zara had some though they seemed to have weird under boob stitching I wasn't so keen on. Boss had a beautiful grey floaty tunic but I've spent far too much recently & am only buying bargains atm.

Try All Saints too. Have a look on the A/W best/worst buys thread - links to nice floaty All Saints stuff on there.
