Please can you help me to find ...?

[ColonelBrandonsBiggestGroupie]

A Breton top, not too long and not too high necked, pref in grey and white stripes and good quality (ie not Gap!);

a pretty leather bracelet or cuff;

something to help my crappy nails grow;

a cute red cotton or silk day dress (needs to be quite subtle red, if that makes sense!) - don't want sexy or body-con, more Sandra Dee! :) I thought Joules or Dickens and Jones might have one but nothing found as yet.

red dress?

Sally Hansen nail growth miracle in the gold or new purple bottle is great.

Lovely dress but probably a bit too 'young' for me - am a short arse but would prefer just above or on the knee, rather than mini.

Sally Hansen - thank you.

[[http://www.johnlewis.com/242208/Product.aspx Cute dress] but too high-necked and too much money!

Try again

dress

Mint Velvet have gorgeous leather cuffs

Lovely Ruprekt - but too sultry for my needs!

Thanks Gilly - will have a look.

Breton top available in grey - have it in the dark blue, is good quality.

Thanks FakePlasticTrees (great song!) - want a top not a jumper though and the stripes are too broad for me on that one.

Gilly - love the cuffs, except for the big flower.

Mint velvet have loads of bretons. Scroll to the bottom in the 'tops' section and you'll find a grey/navy and a stone/ivory one.

Have already looked in Mint Velvet for tops but didn't think the quality was great - quite thin. Might have to investigate Jigsaw.

breton top

ooh I think this is the one! Red dress!

bracelet

Don't like that dress, sorry. Too mumsy - would prefer quirky-ish.

The top IS nice but too long and did feel thin in store.

Thank you.

Oh I like that one, Herbie - thank you.

grey Breton top?

I bought it in black at a fashion show in February, (though I dont think it is called the anastasia dress) my friends daughter bought it in royal blue, and my friend bought it in red.

Tommy hilfiger also does a red polo dress.

Daily mail dress is not subtle however!!, lol!!!

No to that dress, sorry. But thank you anyway. I want just a day dress, cotton or silk, possibly 1950s-ish. Nothing dressy or clingy.

Have just ordered a grey leather cuff from Hobbs and a skirt - oops!

Saw this dress today in H&M and its v nice but maybe too dressy for what you want? here.

This sundress dress also comes in red instore (not on website)

I'm not UK based so don't know if you have Mexx in UK but they stock a grey breton at the moment this one

Thanks Ollie - our Mexx closed down: a shame because I had a few nice bits from there.

No to both of those dresses, I'm afraid.

I am such an idiot - I see things in my head and then sulk when the shops don't come up with the exact goods!
