potential summer school run dress

[PlumSykes]

Anyone ordered this from The White Co?

Quite fancy it in navy, with tan flat sandals, big bracelet and a denim jacket.

That aqua Joules one is surprisingly nice - I thought they only did garish pastel polo shirts and quilted riding jackets. Think my boobs would fall right out of it though which is a shame :(

It is beautiful. I love the grey.

Would it be tight across the bust though for the bigger of boob?

Not keen on linen and y to me it looks maternity.

I love that ebay wallis one, and the joules ones huckingfell linked to are indeed surprisingly ok

think I will go to JL and try them on - could be good for work if smartened up a bit with the right shoes, and good with flip flops too

Summer school run dress already!

The STRESS!!

You would have to be petite and very small busted to carry this off I think. I think it's a bit sack like to be honest with you.

op-its very unflattering.im size 4-6 but wouldnt wear this.
i love my simple h and m spotty sundress.

I really like it . I have a few dresses that shape that I just pull on and go . I think they are flattering.

Love the John Lewis people tree and have ordered

I like the WC double layer waisted one but not the linen one (not helpful).
It does look easy to wear - good length, decent coverage etc. but think it would be way too safe/plain for you.

I love the description though - supermarket, dentist dress

Just got some johnnie b 30's and they're going right back for some 32's (which is not my normal size). They are nice and tight over the calves though.

The shorts however, have completely different dimensions - enormous!

love that stripy people tree dress withagoat is that the one you ordered?

Joules have always done lovely sun dresses. Getting shorter and pricier though!

I ordered that wallis one from ebay and it came today - is lovely but a couple of inches above the knee - will be great on hols for over my bikini
Also received this one which is perfect.

Are you skinny? I think it would be fab and loose and cool on a hot day on someone skinny. If you are at all heavy on the bust it will look like a maternity dress though. The link to the other dress would look fab on a fuller bust and give more definition.
I am so glad that where I live a school run outfit can be whatever someone was wearing to do the garden in, go for a run in, paint the shed in etc. People who move here from more dressy areas rejoice in the simplicity of it (and we still get glammed up for a night out or to go for a nice lunch etc)

not skinny no - size 12 (trying to be a 10!)and 34dd so more curvy!

I ordered their very similar dress last year- and sent it straight back. It made me look PG- not a good look in your late 50s.

it also creasedlike crazy simpy trying it on.

I though it might be nice for a holiday on a Greek island in 35C where you had to be covered for decency's sake- but not worry about fashion.

thast teh one corny
damn the JL card saved on that website

i dont see the NEED to buy skinnies from johnnieB i odnt know how you lot are persuading me i need to.

Skinny jean fit aint an issue

hate the JOULES One - too formal for SRD

haet planet and OF COURse HATE WHITE STUFF GRRR

Tis nice and flattering and casual.
