I want to stay cool, i don't want to wear a mumu, any tips?

Anyone know of any good websites full of summer sale stuff?

Thankyou.

I wear wide-legged linen trousers or a long skirt, and a slightly floaty cotton tunic-type top with long sleeves - DH calls it Elegant Ethnic.
Not sure where'll have that kind of stuff now though...

Linen Trousers sound good, thankyou,

where are you off to?

Would be boiling in leggings, i can wear a dress without them. I suppose i just dont want to be half naked but not ridiculously covering up.

I added the black to my basket and it came up as 9.99, will have to see

You know bias cut, who is it good for again?

I'm size fourteen, matching size hips and norks, belly is the problem area as i probably look three months gone.

Would never do spaghetti straps, only cap sleeves, would never do bikini bottoms only shorts.

That dress is lovely but it is so hard to tell without trying it on if i could get away with it.

Low belts can look a tad maternity on me.
