Well, Tara dress is a no. I'd need Spanx to hoist my bum up and squash my section overhang, and there is no way I'm wearing these with a summer dress.
The Monaco trousers. Hmm. Have already sent them back once, decided to have another look at the reduced price. However, I accidentally ordered a 14 rather than a 12, and the consequence is they sit a good three inches lower - right on my hip really, rather then at my belly button. This solves the short leg issue and they look much better, but I need to assess the back - don't want a dropped crotch look either, which I would think is a risk. Does anyone know if Lyocell is prone to shrinking?
The jeans I ordered (deliberately in a 14), wouldn't go past my hips. I think me and hush jeans just don't get on. I'm wearing size 12 jeans from M&S, and they are decidedly loose.
