It is a very cute bag.

I've read a review that says the dress looks like a nightie and now I'm thinking maybe that's why I was drawn to it. :)

Reporting back to say the dress isn't right on me. I think it was the nightie thing. It has poppers though. :child: There should be more poppers on clothes.

The top is nice but has deep bonded hems and they're really stiff feeling.

It's really soft and feels nice on but kind of hung from my boobs, I felt. I have a photo.

It does look cosy. But I know what you mean. Might it look better unbelted (belted dresses never suit me so I quite often remove them).

I ordered the bag :weewee:

I think it'd be very firmly in nightie territory without the belt. I am not sad about this at all, it's money I haven't spent and that's a good thing!

I am very very allured to this as well.

That is such a pretty print. It's the kind of dress you can wear all year round too.

I quite like the nightie dress on you. If mine looks similar I'll wear it with black tights and boots.

Sorry, I don't like the nightie dress. The pocket pattern being on the wonk annoys me.

I think the nightie dress could work well as a winter WFH option. As comfy as pyjamas but a little more structured and formal so you feel enough like you've made an effort.

It is a lovely soft and comfy dress. I think it'll look great on you Heebie.

The nightie dress was hideous on me. It came to mid thigh making me look like a tartan Dick Whittington.

:lol: Breast pockets on tartan / plaid shirts are supposed to be at 45' though, aren't they? It's a shame about that dress, I thought it would be an unusual autumn staple.

I've just ordered the Boden dress. If it's anything like my current strike rate, it'll be going back anyway. :)

Trench Coats! I am heavily allured. Especially to the JW one, in the maroon colour, although that is the exact same colour of another coat I have.
