Shirt dresses

I am looking for a shirt dress, with short / elbow length sleeves, around knee length or above knee, not denim, black or khaki.
Want something light weight for the summer that I could belt to give a bit of shape to.
Anyone seen any?!

Love a shirt dress! H&m have lots at the mo that fit your description

Otherwise, I have a few short dresses from Dorothy Perkins

There are plenty of shirt dresses on Silk Fred.
You have to pay for returns but the quality of anything I've ordered has always been good.

Ooh I like some of the H&M ones. The silk fred ones are also nice, but a bit too sexy for a law firm (which is wear I work).

Arket have a few, this one is pretty classic, although I'd wear with an open neck and roll the sleeves up to 3/4 length:

Or this would look work smart with a tan belt:

Might be a bit too casual with the side splits, and not cotton but could also be belted:

I love Arket, have found them true to size and I can only buy online. I'm a UK10 and get a 36 or a small. Great quality and emphasis on natural fibres, wash well.

Bought this French connection shirt dress a couple of weeks ago, wore it to work on casual Friday and six people complimented it. The dress (urmmm ok, me!) got quite the big head that day. A bit pricey at 59 quid, but worth it I think in cost per wear and compliments.

Depending on your size and if you like it there's one on ebay for £32 size 12 fits size 14. I'm usually a 10 but got the size 6 (yay to vanity sizing!).

Uniqlo has some but there is limited stock for the 100% cotton ones.
