GameGirly · 02/04/2007 15:42

Cor, that's posh. Never seen that site before. Like the flowery saddle cloth. Just need a horse for it.

fishie · 02/04/2007 15:42

i really like the material. but i look appalling in dress and the skirt version is all pleated and wrong.

did you see (from your laura ashley links ) they are doing an archive collection, perhaps there3 will be suitable frock there.

GameGirly · 02/04/2007 15:46

Seriously, though. Would a flowery saddle cloth be useful for someone with a pony? Thinking it might make nice b-day pressie for niece.

HoraceWimp · 02/04/2007 15:50

this thread is very shallow. No-one cares what dress you are wearing

GameGirly · 02/04/2007 15:51

Shallow it may be, but it's threads like this which get me through the afternoon. I'm good at shallow.

VeniVidiVickiQV · 02/04/2007 15:52

i like that dress MrsB!!!

MrsDoolittle · 02/04/2007 15:53

GameGirly - I'm afraid tis true. A flowery saddlecloth would be very de rigeur this year. I mean it!

GameGirly · 02/04/2007 15:53

Right, that's it: I'm getting 2 immediately. Both nieces can have them. Birthday problems solved. Ta, Mrs D.

Gobbledigook · 02/04/2007 15:54

Ooh I love this thread - much easier on the ticker than 'should women go back to work or be doomed'.

I like the dress too VVVQV, it was the poker-arsed ness of the model that made me laugh

at least the Boden girls look like they're having fun...

OrvilleRedenbacher · 02/04/2007 15:56

MrsBadger · 02/04/2007 15:57

quadrophenia · 02/04/2007 15:58

florence and fred have some nice school run dresses at the moment. My school run dresses mainly consist of collared dresses with buttons, with flared bottom half.

GameGirly · 02/04/2007 15:58

Cod/Orville !!!!! (They don't, do they?! Far too straight and frigid-looking. That would be dirty!)
