don't usually even take a decent pair of shoes these days...only flat mules etc.i'm going with quite a big crowd this time with kids aswell. i'm quite a large person and can't wear the general "long shorts"cos i'm such a funny shape so i've just bought long linen skirts from Evans and t shirts.am i gonna look a complete scruff bag? (i do accessorize though!)

well i've noticed that in most hotels these days,people don't really get that dressed up do they? As i said, I can't wear any type of trousers...not even cropped ones as i'm very short and fat and i end up looking like a clown.this is why i've bought linen skirts instead.

i think you are right, no one dresses up these days. some accessories are always nice. i would just take smart casual.

No way
You don't need shoes!
