Am I too old to wear one at 31? I'm lusting after one.... Has anyone seen any nice ones about?

Ooh I'd love one! Not seen any though. Will keep an eye out. I love corduroy.

PurpleDaisies · 06/09/2016 10:40

Me too! I love corduroy dresses. I am supposed to be on a no spend but for the right one I'm definitely breaking that...

Haven't seen any yet but hoping that the Autumn collections will ge good to us.

NantucketNightbird · 06/09/2016 10:42

So not too old? I can just picture one with some thick tights, but haven't actually seen any either!

I'm 35. Grin

I'm also thinking thick tights and short boots.

OiWithThePoodlesAlready · 06/09/2016 10:45

I got some in primark a few days ago. Not somewhere I normally but clothes but they are actually really nice. I got a black one and a camel kind of colour.

I'm 30 this year.

NantucketNightbird · 06/09/2016 10:49

Ooh what colour/price in primark? I'm nearly 2hrs from the nearest primark but do love a visit.

I got a navy H by Henry Holland one in Debenhams, in April. It's lovely. I'm 31 too. It's quite short, I'm 5ft3 and it's quite a way above my knee but I think a lot of that is down to my wide hips and bum Blush

TippiNoodlegruder · 06/09/2016 10:52

This one it's currently out of stock though.

NantucketNightbird · 06/09/2016 10:54

Tippi I'm just under 5ft 3 Smile

I have one from Top Shop (they do it in navy and burgundy), here.

It's quite short on me (5'5") but fine with tights. Oh, and I am older than you.

HappinessLivesHere · 06/09/2016 14:00

Next have a tan one on!

OiWithThePoodlesAlready · 06/09/2016 14:28

The primark ones were £12. I'm 5'8 and they are quite short but definitely not too short. I normally wear am 8/10 but they were pretty small so I got the 12.

heron98 · 06/09/2016 15:44

I have one. I'm 35. The last time I wore it, my BIL said "ah, [niece] has got that dress".

She is 1.

I haven't worn it since.

Judydreamsofhorses · 06/09/2016 15:58

ASOS have some just now. I have the navy HH one mentioned above, plus a black Topshop one - I got "tall" from Topshop as the normal length practically showed my pants. (I am not especially tall, 5ft 6.) I wore them loads last winter, either with stripy tops or blouses underneath.

Oldraver · 06/09/2016 17:53

New Look have quite a few but not sure what length...I want one but not too short...last year they did a longer length button though denim pinny I could of kicked myself forr not getting but never had it in my store.

I've seen a cord one somewhere else online but cant remember where.
