I have a gig lined up for the beginning of next month - I need something to wear

[SheikYerbouti]

It's quit a big folk gig (normally do ones on a small scale and am there as background noise)

This time I am part of a band and all eyes will be on us

Anyway, I want something nice to wear. Not trousers because they make me look stumpy.

I am 5ft 1, built like a badlt tied sack of spuds, reddy, blondey browny hair. Have big bazookas. I am playing the cello, so it needs to be something that allows me to, ahme, open my legs.

Will see a lot of old faces there - I don;t want them to think I have gorn off.

you were both at the xmas do. i sized you both up then

You've met me, naily (used to be walrus)(

there's a pic on my profile, but only ever have head shots taken (unless wide angled lens )

i like all 3 of JNs latest offerings too

aha!!!!!!!!!! well ih that case i demand you try jackes wide leg breeks

or my velvet ones

go on

Quite like JackieNo's first one as well

Legnth ok, because about knee length on me. Important thing is fulkl skirt because otherwise I'll be flashing my mary-jane at folkers

yes and i was nappiesgalore
fkin namechangers so bloody annoying arent we?

How about this (or maybe too short?) Comes in different lenths though. Look at the enlarged pic to see how full it is.

Is this too summery?

flashing maryjane at folkers may brighten proceedings anyway... are the songs a bit melancholy? could the mood do with a lift? [titter]

nice skirts here

shape of a-line skirt is lovely!

full skirts

less keen on the maxi's... but then i dont think the pics online do then justice. need to be seen in the flesh i spose

Or this one, but it's linen, so definitely summery.

i didnt know you played the cello! i played the double bass for a while but i had achey hands and they teacher told me my hands were too small.

Don;t play as much as I'd like.

I teach, but I have a Real Job and children that prevent me from going more

I'd love to play double bass

hwat aboiut this

material would b e fab and the belt would show off your waist]]

not sure if wrap would mean 'gape' when you open your legs

That's nice too

I have a similar sress to that actually, but instead of a hoop it's got 4 buttons at the side. (I think I wore it to the xmas party)

this

It's almost identiacl to that one actaully

more of the same

OK, will go and try on trews in week.

I will also try a variety of skirts (because they look better on me, I tells ya)
