I am short size 8-10 blonde long culy hair and blue eyes. This style suits me ..would like it knee length(on normal people) so it sits just below my knee which is the most flattering shape on me. I have boo bs very small waist and j-lo bum.

I know its a tall order but if anyone has any ideas please will you link.....TIA!!!

Oasis?
With flowers

JackieNo · 25/06/2008 13:06

Probably too long, but nice colour.

widgypog · 25/06/2008 13:36

thanks jackie..;like the blue oasis one..I am not really a flowery type and was really looking for a strong blue to compliment my eyes..but great start and will look at that oasis one..x

one in Debenhams

thatnks tortoise...I think I need a straighter skirt though..as I am short I could look a little swamped in that

torty's suggestion might be good - it's not too sticky-outy and would work better for a j-lo bum than a straight pencil skirt

imo

Miss Selfridge but I like Tortie's one better.

widgypog · 25/06/2008 15:41

pink

does this one look cheap? they do it in a green but I quite like the pink..not sure about the fit..I think thats when things look cheap if they dont fit correctly

I know its not blue but it is lovely and a similar style.. thought you might like to see it anyway

widgypog · 25/06/2008 20:35

thanks boosh..it is nice but the blue is so much nicer....I may get it and try though...I think it looks smart but trendy which is kind of what I am going for..also I need a dress to go all day and into evening do also so I think that would work...cheers again
