Okay. Instead of taking over the workwear thread. Ideas/pics for nice outfits for drinks and maybe a spot of dancing on summer evenings, please? Especially for those of us who quite like a bit of leg on show.

I am going to zara tomorrow as have seen a skirt with slit that I love and will have a look for you I think I saw backless there

noddyholder · 21/05/2014 17:22

Thats nice I have a white linen one from zara with back like that

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 21/05/2014 17:29

And this looks gorgeous but it's polyester and also sleeveless. I think if low back, one needs at least a bit of sleeve at our age! Grin

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 21/05/2014 17:39

I can't do white - look absolutely bloody awful in it. A pity, as I adore that sort of pretty Bohemian look but it hates me.

Its my everyday look as I work from home no need to wear 'nice' stuff! Looks best with a bit of a tan though I have so many of those tops buy more every year

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 21/05/2014 17:59

I try some on every year, and am every year reminded that I look like a dead Victorian grandmother in them.

I really love white lace or embroidered cotton blouses. I fear I may look enormous in them, but I love them so much.

Love that very me. Jealous

RonaldMcDonald · 22/05/2014 00:13

it's in Top Shop now get it, size down

BelindaAllWorkedOut · 22/05/2014 06:00

Those H&M shorts are fab, excellent that they are online. They don't look too short, either. I will be trying them. The Kate Mos kaftan looks good on her, doesn't it?! SusieSoSo blog says to size down twice.

I am looking for a beaded jacket, in eBay, so I can get my party Mossy on. Her TopShop silver beaded jacket is about £200, though Shock

BelindaAllWorkedOut · 22/05/2014 06:21

Have I linked to this skirt? I've seen it in real life and it's really beautiful. Looks quite £££ and I love it w the shirt they have her wearing in the photo. tablet.hm.com/gb/product/25384?article=25384-A

I love a little Glomesh, though.
