Is this minging or not?

I tried this on in Debenhams yesterday and nearly bought it. Looked nice (if I hoiked the straps up a bit and didn't take the cardy bit off). But am I going to look like a large (size 16) picnic tablecloth in it?

I think it is lovely but couldn't wear anything called 2 in 1 garden something!

I think it's really pretty Not at all like a table cloth.

I think it's quite pretty. Like the little cardi with it.

I've got fat shoulders so couldn't take the bolero thingy off. (the tunic has straps underneath) I do like it, I just wondered if it's a good idea for largeish, chintzy-ish florals to be splashed across my ample hips!

It is nice, not sure it is £50 nice though!

It's not my thing, but not bad, lovely holiday outfit.

If you are worried about hips why not chose one with a loger line cardi like this

Not minging, but if it requires so much fiddling around aren't you better off looking at something different?

I like that -how long is it?

MamaGoblin · 25/03/2010 15:25

Redshoes - I like that a lot too! Hmmm...

Cornsilk - if that was directed at the one I linked, it came to mid-thigh on me (over jeans, naturally).

Ooh I think it's nice.

It's not very edgy. I think the print looks a bit like B&B bedroom curtains, truth be told.

MamaGoblin · 25/03/2010 16:00

Mathanxiety - Nor am I! I like the chintz, just not sure if I want to look like a 50's sofa...

Actually, I do think I'll get it.

I like the colour of the green shrug. I think I'd wear it separately, maybe with jeans and some other top, and wear the floral top just on its own too, weather permitting.
