I have this dress but if the weather is like this no way can I wear it, I will melt. I thought something flowey, got to be a little bit 50's, not boring and cant be more than £30 and I have to get it before sat.

It is my best friends 40th and she is having a cocktail garden party with lots of cool rockabilly type people and music. I like a lot of je browns stuff but they are always a bit hit and miss. it has got to be cool (temp wise I am a red head and dont deal with heat)

30 english pounds exactly for this lovely one not a patch on V of H but still very nice.

ooo now we are talking, never thought of matalan might see if I can drag friend there. love the dotty p's strawberry one ike a more summery version of what I have. procrastination that one is proper gorgeous although I think it would be nearly as hot as the voh one. the voh one is lined and corsetted and has a huge under skirt and the thought of outting it on is making me melt already.

I love the boohoo one but I think once you put my huge norks in it it would barely cover my bum.

Theys and exercise in frustration a light torture as far as I'm concerned! Not strictly for the very young but always way too short for my legs.
