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?

a woman at dds school does the school run every day in bronze jodhpurs. She has a very buxom bottom and the material strains over it - it's really quite a sight, I can't help but stare, every day, am becoming obsessed with her arse.

I can't wear that wrap over type dress either due to broad back/shoulders it gapes at the front.

I live in Yorkshire but I agree with enid on the dress front. I have a knitted affair I have been wearing with tights and boots in the winter. Very handy for hanging out the washing or gardening because I can just slip my wellies on without having to mess about tucking jeans etc in. So will have a similar summer number. And you can always extend it's usefullness with a cardie.

I have the light blue raincoat from the Bravissimo sale. Looks great belted over a skirt/dress.

I think Grace Kelly would

LOLOLOLOL at this thread - as it was me who started the most recent school run dress.

I didn't buy it for the school run FFS, I work!
But when I saw it (£10 H&M) I thought ''this is what cod means by a school run dress,'' piss easy to wear on a hot day. [optimist]

I am not a pampered princess but I do not go outside in pjs or jogging bottoms. Unless I am jogging...But I don't jog!

Does anyone here live somewhere normal where they pick kids up from school rather than doing the 'school run' and where they are wearing, whatever it is they're wearing?

It was explained lower down - to chuck over the top of bikini or summat.

Who in Gods name wears a bikini in their back garden? I am overlooked on all sides. Do you people live in the middle of nowhere or gated estates?

who cares if people see you in a bikini - you're still clothed
