Can you find me a cardi?

Good S&B ladies, I need some help...

I'm hunting for a cardi - what I have in mind is something chunkyish, hip length, cropped-sleeve and preferably mid-green.

I'm 5'6", size 10-12, and want something to layer over long-sleeved tops/vests, vintage toned (is that what you call them these days ) blue jeans and tan mid-calf boots. Needs to keep me warm & hide pot-belly, but not swamp!

Budget up to about £50, pos higher if really spesh

Hi cheesebaby,
not sure if you have used this before, but for anything fashion or beauty I love using shop style website here http://www.shopstyle.co.uk/?utm_source=AdWords&utm_medium=PPC&utm_term=shopstyle%20com&utm_content=s xM7AJtSZ|3623466997&utmcampaign=Google-ShopStyle&Network=Search&SiteTarget=&skwcid=shopstyle%20com |3623466997

In the top left corner, there is a search window, where you can just type in anything you are looking for, e.g., chunky grey cardie and it will come up with loads of options, a range of prices all to buy online.

Good luck and let us know how you got on.

Also - try cardigan rather than cardie - works better.

[ www.shopstyle.co.uk/browse?fts=green+cardie#0_8 ] for green ones

Oooh, I love that one too, Moneyspider! Good taste!

Thanks both!

topshopgirl - thanks; that site is amazing - soooo much to browse through (although I looked at every cardi listed and still didn't find quite what I'm after...)

moneyspider - summer! ha! still snowy on't hills up here nice cardi tho - and there is some gorgeous stuff on that site; not come across it before. I like this, tho it's a bit smarter than I usually manage

Perhaps I'm going to have to wait til next winter for a nice warm cardi!

Sorry you haven't find anything yet cheesebaby.I know, there really is so much to browse through on shop style, good luck with finding your cardi x

Found one! Bit longer in body and sleeve than I wanted, not particularly chunky and more khaki than green-green, but pretty nice on

Bring on summer
