what a fab dilemma

have found a few possibles:

white company - viscose, so nice and breathable, along with great swishy drape
people tree - i like the satin edging details on this but it looks disppointingly unflattering on the model
boden - choice of colours/prints, tencel is like viscose, so same goos points there, v neck but sill decent i reckon
vintage ebay - not plain for but i think it would be rather lovely for dancing in
french connection my favourite of the lot, that pleated hem would swish beautifully, but maybe the skirt isn't full enough?

i thought i wanted to katymac but the one time i tried i realised i hate bodily contact with strangers (but we were doing ceroc which is nowhere near as cool as tango, wonder if i'd feel differently about that?)

I love dancing - DH is a dance teacher, but he is poorly & can't dance atm

So I can't eithersad

ah now if i could dance with dp that would be different. but then we'd have to get a babysitter...

how fab having a dance teacher dh - did you meet through dancing? (your dd dances too, doesn't she, iirc)

me too...adore it. which type does he teach katymac?/
i'm from a family of dancers myself,and really miss it

i do my dancing at gigs instead, went out last night in fact. fair dos pogoing for a couple of hours doesn't exactly require any skill but it's damn good fun running kind of fills the gap too as i have my ipod and it's kind of like dancing in a straight line :D

He taught Ballroom, latin, disco, rock'n'roll, salsa, bit of ceroc/argentine/lindy, we don't talk about the line anything really

DD does dance & he saves what little energy he has for her - but I really miss it
