Please help me find some cardigans! And peep toe wedges...

I'm hankering after a blush (is that the right name for pale peachy-pink?) coloured cropped cardi and a v-neck duck egg blue-ish cardi so that I can wear the two lovely sleeveless frocks MIL treated me to in Jigsaw yesterday. I am size 8 and seem to suit things which are fine knit and non-ruffly/unfussy.

Please can someone please help? I have a 16 month old who seems to think shops are some kind of adventure playground...

Also if you can point me in the direction of some black mid-height peep toe wedges I'd be totally sorted!

John Lewis website has some nice black peep toe wedges.

Don't know about the cardis but I want your mother in law. Two jigsaw dresses? Are you blackmailing her?

Thank you. Yes, I know, I am very lucky, we have a great relationship - I am the daughter she never had and she is the mum I no longer have. MIL is wonderfully kind and a shopaholic. Great combination! Oh, and she cleans too...

No cardi suggestions?

No but I think I might have to assassinate you so I can move in on your DH, to access your MIL - by stealth.

TheHouseofMirth · 10/06/2010 15:44

Hmm, I think putting up with DH is quite a high price to pay for a few pretty frocks!

Both Gap & H&M have cropped cardis in various colours. Neither are online though. Sorry !

TheHouseofMirth · 10/06/2010 16:20

That's OK, as long as I know where I'm going I can do a quick smash and grab! There's just no time for browsing anymore...

I got a little crop cardi from Brora recently which I am pleased with and they have one in duck egg blue this, It's very light and fine.

cheap and cheerful wedges

scurryfunge · 10/06/2010 21:03

lovely

TheHouseofMirth · 10/06/2010 21:16

olderandwiser that cardi's perfect and I thought Brora was quite expensive but that's not bad at all.

Scurryfunge thanks but both your pairs are a bit on the high side for me. DS2 is at the running away very fast stage and I need to be able to catch him!

Saw some lovely brown suede peeptoe slingback wedges in JL - from Hobbs. They may do them in black too. They weren't cheap though....
