ooo i was just popping on here to boast about the lush dress I got today and there is already a thread about it! I LOVE it! A word of advice though, I had to search through lots of these dresses to find one where the stitching on the front seams wasn't coming apart- I don't know if it was a problem with the stock in this particular shop but it seemed to be a fault on an awful lot of them...

the dress in the OP doesn't have thin straps. You could hide even the sturdiest of bra straps under it.

"Hi there,

Well just back from our last trip to Courcheval for the last of the white stuff, so it’s out with the big boards and off to the coast – sometimes life just couldn’t get any better.

I am such a slob I wear a sarong and/or scratty skirt all day and only put on dress if need to look Nice - hence preference for wedges
