I have found a perfect dress for anything and am very excited

[turquoise]

Bought this in M&S today () and it is FAB - not as clingy and smart as it looks in the photo, just medium weight t shirt cotton, length just on the knee and doesn't make me look bolster-bosomed. And, best of all, kind of skims over the giant wobbly waist area, hurrah. Will be wearing with boots and cardi for a while, then flipflops for school run or tarted up a bit with heels etc if necessary.

I had to SHARE!

it is farking expensive in there (LKB) too. There have some lovely work tops but they are about £70-£90 . Just not worth it imo. Their cov gdn store is fun though - loads of space and nice wooden floors and mirrors and leather arm chairs. Is worth going in just for the sit down.

Yes I like the shelving, but silly prices I agree - especially if you think you are going to be getting your monies worth by being something with shells or keys.

buying something [sigh]

Coddle - where the Kew dress?

but it feels funny viscose, doesn't it? Yes, I agree, at £25, you'll get your money's worth.

One of my children does the material thing too - it's a curse only being able to wear nice feeling stuff.

I think you just need to pretend Turquoise - if it FEELS ok, just pretend you don't know it isn't cotton.

That's the thing though - it felt so cottony, I didn't even check the label. Am amazed it's not!

(May have to head back to Laura Ashley for the top now viscose has pretensions of natural fibreness...)

Polyester out of the question obv.

lol cod

yes, that's the spirit Turquoise. If it feels cottony, then that will do (just cut out the label for any further viscose angst).
