Long sleeved dress for a winter wedding

I've seen this and wanted some opinions, please!

I'm 5"3' and a size 12 (well, in most shops, I think). I'm looking for something that will cover my arms and not bring attention to my post-baby tummy.

Any comments?

I like it.

Thank you Smile

Think I may order it and hope for the best. I can always send it back, it's just a bit of a faff. But then so is dress-shopping with a 6-month-old who goes berserk every time I enter a shop!

Ah babies and shopping, not the best combination. Hope you're pleased with it Grin

Thank you both. Just a bit concerned I'll look like a sack of potatoes in it! But may as well try!

I've got that dress. It's very versatile. You can dress it up for the wedding, but you can wear it again, dressed down with thick tights and boots. Really nice.

Thanks, Jawbreaker. If you don't mind me asking, are you a fellow short-arse, or do you have lovely, long legs (in a non-pervy way, you understand). I need something that comes to the knee, or just above...

I'm tall but also hate bearing arms and post-baby belly. It's quite short on me.
