Can’t find anything! Size 16 - knee length or longer. Cool, cotton or linen. Everywhere has their autumn stuff in and nothing in the sales!

I just bought some lovely cotton summer dresses in different styles from La Redoute. Lots on their sale.

How do their skates come up? French company so wondering if I should go up a size.

Sizes not skates!

Brieandbeetroot · 07/09/2023 15:00

I think it probably depends on the styles. I chose my usual size and they fit but aren't fitted. Both are cotton with no stretch and feel comfortable.

Shame! I was looking forward to reading about the skates.

I have one dress from this brand, and I really like it. very good quality, runs large, though:

Classic me&em – now with the sale price is okay very summery colour:

rixo has a large selection of sizing, not a big fan of prices, but great selection:

I love that Me and Em dress. I do buy out of season as holiday abroad several times in the year and am so tempted by their sale.

Have a look at Mint Velvet summer sale. Some good reductions now.

Loads in the White Stuff sale www.whitestuff.com/browse/collection/dresses-sale

I've just bought the Jamelia dress , down to £30 from £75. This is where I think brands are going wrong with their pricing. I picked it up much earlier in the season and thought it was a bit expensive. If it had been £55 or £59 I'd have bought it without a thought. As things stand, I've paid less than half price and not really missed out on wearing it because of shit weather in the meantime!
