Ultimate oxymoron? Nice hoody?

20 replies

Wrong season or this I know but I'm going to a lot of festivals this year and I'm looking for a nice hoody that is quite flattering as well as warm.

I'm 5ft 2, size 12 but have bigish norks (e cup). Is this impossible?!

What about Uniqlo- no logos, plain and cheap.

Superdry hoodies are lovely, I lived in mine before it got warmer. Would be great for evenings at a festival.

Victoria Secret from US do lovely ones...or try Jack Wills/Superdry..

southeastastra · 30/05/2010 14:19

american apparel have about a million

Forget about buying a new hoodie.

Where the blue blazes have I put my lovely heavyweight yellowgreeny no logo go with everything never take it off my back hoodie? It's been a week and I can't find the darn thing [desperate][gutted].

pick a colour, any colour.
these are great - although at 5'9" I wear the men's ones for the length.

The ultimate oxymoron is Microsoft Works btw.

DH has a great fat face hoodie that I nick regularly. It's grey and fairly simple and soft inside.

another vote for Superdry. A bit embellished, but superwarm (and often with those thumbholes, which are ridiculous but helpful for the inevitable festival having to wear all your clothes at once moment - make it easier to cram your jacket on top.)

Superdry ones do look super comfy but I was hoping for something a bit more - well, flattering I guess!

Like maybe a v neck hoody so disguise norks? Maybe I should just suck it up and put comfort before style.

Maybe one with a zip so you can zip up to the line of your bosom like this

ticktockclock · 30/05/2010 17:55

Or maybe something like this

southeastastra · 30/05/2010 18:21

Ohh I really like that plain white waffle one from next but I'm guessing it wont be arm; also the fat face one is lovely and blue is my colour.

Might have to get two now, a nice looking one and a warm superdry one!

my favourite warm hoody belongs to dp, it's massive and i wear it all the time! think it's fruit of the loom one

Paribus · 30/05/2010 21:22

thisismyclone · 31/05/2010 09:34

I like the superdry ones - very flattering shape. I am similar size to you: 5'3" size 10, DD norks...they are also super warm.
