sick of jeans want nice tunics and dresses to wear with leggings..

[minxofmancunia]

BUT NOT WHITE STUFF!!

Also no boden or fat face, would like fairly fitted ones possibly tea dress style but not too loose under the bust, hate feeling like I'm wearing maternity clothes, don't mind florals and quite like a vintage look.

Any ideas?

Cath Kidston and Vivien of Holloway do a 1940s tea dress/shirt dress style if that floats your boat?

Get thee to new look!! have had 4 dresses tea dresses out of there in the past couple of weeks-all under £20. To be worn with leggings or thick tights.

Try Pearl Lowe at Peacocks.

Crew have got some nice dresses this season.

try ASOS

Primark have some nice dresses at the mo. Mistral also do nice fitted tunice and dresses.

i got this
and it isnt this short and looks good (on me - 5 foot 5 size 12 it is half way between mid thigh and knee

I got a lovely one from sainsbo's the other day!

Dorothy Perkins?
Also Asos.

H&M are always good for this. I like this sort of look atm.

Can you sew? The reason I ask is that I would thoroughly reccomend Kay Whitt's patterns.

How about this or this? Are they the kind of thing you are looking for? the great thing about her patterns is that you can get lots of variations out of each pattern and of course use whatever bonkers/sensible fabric your want. She is from the USA, but good fabric shops in the UK stock the patterns.

Liking the Torii Tunic shelscrape - have you made this?

And what size is equivalent to a size 10 for these patterns?
