Do you actually change clothes to drop off/pick up at school?
Who are you trying to impress?
Do you have nothing more important to think about?

Can I ask - I don't wear dresses because of a) the Norks issue - G cup and b) I don't like tights - is there any hope for me? What would Grace Kelly do?

MamaG · 22/04/2008 13:45

Would need to be patterned in case of blood splats and drool.

Not tight around neck in case you get hamster cheeks.

Sleeves, as can be a tad nippy in dentist

Ah yes, right Cod. Okay, summer dress. But why now? It's bloody freezing.

Cappuccino · 22/04/2008 13:45

oh that mini skirt is everything that is wrong with Boden

it is everything that is wrong with the country

LL if your legs are only good from the knee up, are you going to be keeping your hunters on?

francagoestohollywood · 22/04/2008 13:45

cod, with all due respect, those shorts are

orangina · 22/04/2008 13:45

Grace Kelly would have a beautifully cut pair of slacks.

  1. SHAPED dress, goes in under norks, not sack like
  1. Fake tan your legs, don't go above the knee (not too far anyhoo)

On the dentist's top... A gynecologist once instructed me to wear a skirt when going to see her in order to make the appointment shorter .

I have coverted school run dresses for years but alas no school as yet.

However, this year I am doing a fine line in 'crap I have food all over me and now must leave this house for nearest outdoor green space before I scream' I think of it as a throw on dress.

you are lucky my dear. show them off with a different thing, those shorts conjure up imagines of thick ankles.

TheMadHouse · 22/04/2008 13:49

Cod, surely the neckline would be no good for the larger lady?
