move over owls - parrots are the new It Bird

After 20 minutes deliberation, I finally pressed the 'buy' button on this most amazing piece of fabulousness:

pink parrot bandeau top from Dorothy Perkins

Within 5 minutes I had already questioned my decision.

It's pink.

It has no sleeves.

It has parrots on it.

It's what people might, in attempts to be tactful, call 'a statement piece'.

But then I thought about it some more... and I came to this conclusion:

for too long owls have reigned supreme as Kings of the Skies;

for too long have they had the monopoly over other sky-based fauna.

This must change!

Give pink parrots a chance!

Do you like the pink parrot theme?

Do you think the top is hideous or fabulous?

Be honest with me, people!
