http://www.asos.com/ASOS/ASOS-Boat-Neck-Knitted-Dress/Prod/pgeproduct.aspx?iid=2240586&SearchQuery=asos%20navy%20dress&sh=0&pge=0&pgesize=-1&sort=-1&clr=Navy. I've never bought any ASOS brand stuff before, but it's bargainous, 100% cotton, feels so cosy and great quality. Also not as short on me (5'5") as it looks in the picture.

Wow, good one lurking (glad you found the thread.) Colours don't work for me but that actually looks way more expensive than it is. Another 100% cotton piece also. Have to say, the asos range has some brilliant basics (and is fab for maternity wear).

Shit, ordered. sorry bank balance
That's lovely.
I'm loving my new found dress wearing, I never thought I could carry one off, but have got so many compliments, and all have been MN recommendations.
That's me bought five now though, enough I think, just need to get recs on dressing them in different ways.

Thank you OP!! I ordered this in blue and it is gorgeous! V slimming and comfortable :) dh loves it too. Wore it with black leggings and brown today - felt utterly fab. I'm 5'6 btw.

SabrinaMulhollandJjones · 30/09/2012 19:39

*brown boots!

Is the link broken or is it just me?

NettoSuperstar · 30/09/2012 20:27

Another one
Not for me, I'm too short, it would be far too long on me and look Mumsey.

SabrinaMulhollandJjones · 30/09/2012 20:33

California, go onto the ASOS site and search for 'boat neck knitted dress' - it's the one that comes in blue & grey £30.00.

Medal · 30/09/2012 21:37

Dammit why are there none in my size left! Hope ASOS get some more in.

TheBirdsTheBirds · 30/09/2012 22:48

I love that green one you linked to Netto, will order it tomorrow I think!

Not sure how stock levels are now of the first dress I linked, but I've just found another one that looks pretty much the same, in red, also 100% cotton. Needless to say, I have ordered it...

OP posts:
NettoSuperstar · 09/10/2012 10:38

I've got that in black, it's lovely on.
Might order the red too.

TheBirdsTheBirds · 09/10/2012 12:29

That's good to know Netto. I just looked at it again and it's not actually that similar to the first one I linked, the waist is different.

I didn't order that green one you linked in the end, I couldn't see the strange sleeves when I first looked at it on my phone... If it had been that colour and a plain jumper dress shape I might have got it.

By the way, this belt in burgundy goes really well with the grey and the navy dresses. It's super skinny and delicate, no holes so doesn't matter what size your waist is, and it's a lighter, pinker burgundy than it looks in the photo. Am wearing it today with the grey dress :)

OP posts:
NettoSuperstar · 09/10/2012 12:56

I like that belt, might get it tomorrow.
I'm wearing the grey dress today too, with animal print tights, grey flat boots and this scarf

TheBirdsTheBirds · 09/10/2012 13:01

Nice scarf, I like the combination of pretty and edgy.. Grin I hope we never meet Netto as we now have very similar wardrobes.

OP posts:
NettoSuperstar · 09/10/2012 13:07

Yes, we would look rather stupid!

OneMoreGo · 09/10/2012 18:02

I really hope they get more of that blue boat neck dress in! I so want to buy one! :(

Curtsey · 09/10/2012 18:30

Where'd you get the animal print tights Netto ? Love your outfit and Birds's belt.

NettoSpookerstar · 09/10/2012 18:46

Asda
I have the leopard print ones too, though not worn them yet, and the diamond ones, which looked good with one of the other dresses.
