This one in Ted Baker is lovely http://www.tedbaker.com/women%27s/dress ... pfm=browse" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I also liked the one in Kate Moss' Top Shop collection, until my mate kindly pointed out that the top didn't contain my boobs. http://www.topshop.com/webapp/wcs/store ... &langId=-1" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

And this one from Phase Eight is beautiful http://www.phase-eight.co.uk/fcp/produc ... ark%20blue" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

H&M dresses are for giants, I'm going to need to wear my stripey one with massive heels. I'm over 5'9"

I got this one from Peacocks today:



I love it, but my friend just kindly pointed out that it's quite see-through in the sunlight.....this is after I spent 20 mins waiting for him in the hospital car park in the blazing bright sun :mad: Should I wear an underskirt (*shudder*)? Should I care? You'd see more if I was wearing shorts tbh.

I'm 5'3 btw :)

[Pippedydeadeye]

That's lovely! I wouldn't worry about the see-throughness.

[Turtle Bean]

Just wear stout knickers.

It is very pretty.

[Pickle]

Just wear stout knickers.

It is very pretty.

WBS!

[Shoe]

Gorgeous!

New Look have got quite a few nice ones in; lots of floaty flowery day ones, a couple more suitable for evenings and some of the dead plain jersey t-shirt material ones that are like really long vests.

[Turtle Bean]

I liked the ones in New Look too, Shoe. I was looking at them last weekend but didn't have time to try on. I might go back.

[BonnyBlue]

Thank you all! I never considered maxi dresses before because I thought I was too short for them, but this thread has been an education :)) Stout knickers it is!

[Shoe]

Nobody is too short for them, you just lift the hem when on stairs and kick it up in front of you the rest of the time. :))

[bramblerose]

Nobody is too short for them

This is true but you can be too tall for them :verm:

I still want another one. I will have to have a look in New Look

[Erimar]

There are some gorgeous ones on the ebay site 12 bread rolls....thanks for that, now I am off to spend some money

[Faute de Mieux]

I bought this one from Warehouse but mine has more prominent turquoise than the one in this picture & I got a little turquoise Monsoon shrug to go with it.

And also this one which is a bit of a miracle dress; I've worn it twice & twice been asked if I've lost weight.

[Pippedydeadeye]

I love those, SnoFo, especially the first.

[Faute de Mieux]

Danke, they are both so easy to wear.

[Lily]

That Warehouse one is v good value for such a slinky dress!

I have got this one, and I love the colours but am unsure of whether it is flattering due to bulgage under the arms. Honest opinions please?

[hungry caterpillar]

You have NO bulgage under your arms

When you are a wobbly size 16 with 38 DD booooobs then you may come back and moan!! :))

[Pippedydeadeye]

YES!

We have had this before, even the skinniest minnies have arm bulges, they are entirely normal. I can't think of a single person that doesn't have them.

[Lily]

I know everyone gets them, but some clothes accentuate them more than others! I do love the dress, I'm just not sure I)m 100% comfortable in it because of the straps.
