Summer Dress Please

I would like to buy a couple of summer dresses for hot days ... preferably cotton or cotton mix, floaty (but I like denim/chambray too). I'm looking for £30ish but up to £50 and not too long. I'm 5'2", can't wear heels and want something I can wear round house, sit in garden, go shopping ... everyday ... sleeveless, but cap sleeves probably better. Important - no string straps - need to be able to wear a bra underneath. I'm size 12 M&S and Next, but needs to be stomach skimming. Happy with above knee/shorter or long, but not too long what with me being so short.

Ideas welcome :-)

head to Vinted, you will find loads of Boden dresses that perfectly fit your description, from about £5 each. They wash really well, and if you avoid the small floral prints that don’t age too well, they can be quite timeless. They also come in petite sizes.
