I want light and airy and sleeveless so they dont show sweat marks

I don't think Uttam is worth the money in terms of quality actually, bought a coupla of things in sale and was disappointed by quality. WOuld have been fuming if I'd paid original prices..

We dont have a TK Maxx here but am visiting IL's next week so I'll have a look there.

Was looking at this and it is a bargain but again, bloody stripes.

Seasalt is nice too.

The New look one is very similar to one I got from Next.

If I feel the urge to be hippified, there is a lovely fair trade hippy shop in town - quarter of the price of Uttam - and not by any means all tie-dyed

seasalt sizing is generous... I am usually between a 10 and a 12, but got the 8 in the end.

saw some nice ones in H and M last week - not online though

SilentTerror · 09/06/2008 18:02

I have 2 French Connection jersey dresses,one in cream with navy butterfly print and one in navy with bronze butterfly print. They are fixed wrap style,knee length with short sleeves.
Unfortunately cannot link as from last year and bought off ebay,but worth a look imo.

LIZS · 09/06/2008 19:39

Nbg · 10/06/2008 11:27

LOL!

Actually, I have gone and bought two today.
This one which is an absolute bargain and reminds me a little bit of the Seasalt one
and
this one

I'll probably end up sending them back but I'll give them a shot.

I am loving that long one tmmj

Somebody (she shall be nameless) tells me I can't wear it to work but my work is quite relaxed.

I like it cos I'm not keen on short dresses with bare legs (on me not others ) so that one will cover my pins.

But tell me mmj, how long is it? I am 5'6" - will it drag on the floor? Cause even I don't want to hide that much leg.

(I love that site btw, nice necklaces too - ooops!)
