The week after next I'm travelling to Tokyo, Hong Kong and Singapore on business. I think the "dress code" will be smart-casual but tending towards the smart. Currently the temperature in those three cities is between 23 and 29 degrees, although most place I'm going to will be air-conditioned. I've got virtually no summer clothes for the office as the season tends to be so short that every year I just limp through by wearing one long black linen skirt, a black linen jacket and trying to work from home in a t-shirt and shorts/go on holiday!
I want to avoid tights if I can, but trousers are tough as I've got a small waist and flat stomatch but thunder thighs and a huge arse. So longish, elegant skirts or dresses will do (not pencil skirts because of aforementioned arse and thighs). A pair of smart, soft sling-backs would also be good.
No limit on luggage allowance and I'm willing to pay up to £100 for a dress or jacket and £50-£60 for a skirt or top.
I can't think why any of you lot would want to help me, but here's hoping......
