I love that, PG!

I really love the long jumpsuit I bought (somewhere up on this thread). But I’ve never worn it as it buttons up the back and I struggle to do it myself which poses toilet based issues.

See I can only wear button up the back ones because I can’t get my arms out of many front fastening jumpsuits.

I have one, with elasticated waist and ruched sort of / puff sleeves/massive straps, but it won't really stay properly on the shoulders.

There aren't any photos of the back so I don't know how this one works.

I hate not being able to visualise how clothes are constructed.

Right, talk me out of this now. Or don’t.

For some reason I was convinced that was a play suit. I like it, but I’m not sure it’s your colours as I think your colouring is similar to mine and that would make me look as though I’ve been dragged off a mortuary slab.

The print is very pretty and springy. I avoid tiered dresses generally but there are so many around at the moment!

That's beautiful, Pip.
Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me either, just fuck off and leave me alone.

I do not already own a tiered dress. :))

Well, I will next week now. They were offering me free limitless delivery & 40% off for my birthday this month.

I love these SO MUCH but am fairly sure that the colour wouldn't suit me (pale & auburn), and absolutely sure that I can't wear a top without a bra.
I like that but find these low cut things so impractical even though I'd possibly be OK braless. It's just so low.

I like the dress Pip. Although I also thought it was a playsuit at first and liked it all the more for that.

Are these mutton dressed as lamb? I'm 44.

I like those, Heebie but I do love a bit of camo. I like Pip's dress too.

Yes, it'd be totally obscene on me, and any wearer would have to deploy tit-tape, surely?

I don't think those invisible trousers scream Youth Only.

I’ve given up caring about what’s age appropriate. Who decides that, anyway?

If I like something I wear it!

I can see Heebie's invisible trousers, and like them - not at all mutton I don't think.

I am a bit in love with this dress, but mostly because I think t reminds me of dresses I wore in the 80s.

I also want a lifestyle where I buy this two-piece suit, move to Palm Springs and have cocktails in the backyard :lol:

I like those Liv. I really rate Thought as a brand.

The Warehouse dress has arrived and I like it. It’s fixed buttons & slightly stretchy so is no bad thing there.

I was all set to buy the pleated midi skirt that I don’t need and it’s sold out in my size, and I’m not devastated. :))

I’ve found something else I want instead. To be an Italian peasant-widow in, rather than a Sicilian widow.
