I can't wear trousers because I have PCOS and the pressure on my abdomen is unbearable. So I live in dresses, leggings and dolly shoes. The novelty of this wears off pretty quickly.

I'm a size 14, and pretty curvy. I'm also rather short Grin

I currently have seven dresses. Six of those are duos of the same style Blush I'm bloody bored of them!!! And two or three are looking slightly worse for wear too.

Any suggestions appreciated.

I've got this in both the striped colours and the wine. It is stretchy and comfy. I have been wearing them with leggings, and a cardigan. I sometimes put a belt on but they look fine without, too. I am 5ft 4 and they come to just above my knee.

i will have look, as you sound similar shape and height to me, and i would love to start wearing a few dresses. but maybe someone else can go first asi have no clue really. i live in tight vest tops with jeans, or leggings and long tops/ shrug things. and biker boots.

i like the stripe one, i would love something like that but lower cut on the boobs. have also fancied one of those clingy but supportive dresses that i would dress down not a clue where to look.

this looks like it could be comfortable, and dressed up or down.

I've just bought a gorgeous pink/floral tea dress from Tesco. Can't do links on my phone but it's easy to find on their site. Only 16 of your english pounds.

Tea dresses are your friend. I'm the same height/shape as you and I live in them Smile

Knitted.

Tesco tea dress, maybe the one Bunny bought!

Tuttutitlookslikerain · 21/09/2012 20:41

Actually, Looking at Tesco they have got some lovely dresses. Lots of different shapes and styles and if you spend £40 you get £5 off!

Boden tend to do nice floral day dresses.

M&S seem to have quite a few jersey day dresses on their website

SirGOLDBoobs · 21/09/2012 21:11

TutTut - the one you linked to is a maternity dress, look at the other pics of it. That's why it look comfortable Grin.

Tuttutitlookslikerain · 21/09/2012 21:28

So it is LittlePanda, room to eat lots of dinner in that one thenGrin

I find Tesco on the smaller size if anything, SirGold. I wear size 10 dresses from Dorothy Perkins, New Look, M&S, Next etc, but I usually buy a 12 from Tesco otherwise I find them tight on the bust.

BunnyLebowski · 21/09/2012 21:44

That's not my dress! It's paler pink with a collar and wee buttons Smile

Damn unlinky phone Angry

SirGOLDBoobs · 21/09/2012 21:48

I was only slightly insulted by that one Tuttut! Grin

Smaller... Ah the bastards buggers. Do hate having to get a size bigger... Wink
