If I show you a pic of my favourite RL dress will you help me find others I might like? There are none in the shops that I could see when I went ot look, but I know you lot are expert internet-finders!

Pic is on profile. Jersey material, the V neck is quite low, it's just above the knee.

I've been looking on ebay and seen

this one but it's a bit dark

and this one

and this one

but they're all 3/4 sleeves rather than v short sleeves.

What do you think?

La redoute one ok, non offensive but bit plain
pink white stuff one is nice but don;t like the other one
like the jane norman one
the ribbed one i would wear it in black with opaques and boots in winter
Not keen on the purple red herring one, bit mummsy

Have ordered both from White Stuff, discount code 'rat3' gave 15% off yay!

Also waiting for Debenhams to tell me my passowrd so I can order the Red Herring ones (paying for delivery so might as well get both to try). Actually not paying for delivery, found code SHA1 for free delivery!

Obviosuly will not be keeping all 4 dresses!

Oh and I should in theory be getting a bit more discount via TopCashBack I am internet-shopping-savvy me! By the way that link (if you want to use it) lets you sign up as being 'recommended by me' and so I think I get a pound if you use it. Obviously you don't have to do it like that if you don't want me to have a pound. It was recommended to me by moneysavingexpert as being a reliable place that gives you decent amounts of money (4% for Debenhams and 8% for White Stuff this time) and is reliable and trustworthy.

Interesting that you think the purple RH one will be mumsy Clure, when Flame thinks the pink RH one will be mumsy. I bagged free delivery for Debanhams so it doesn't matter too much - can return them if necessary with nothing lost.

No problem with the link, someone else recommended it on a thread a while ago and we were all impressed!

I like the purple RH one especially, the White Stuff ones are nice too

I got a great one from Peacocks, last year that is very similar to your pic. It is black with grey and white flowers, very deep v neck/mock wrap type top and has short sleeves. It is just below the knee on me but i am only 5'3"

Dorothy Perkins had some nice ones last time i was there too.

TrillianAstra · 06/06/2009 09:35

This is what I'm hoping Alice - that dresses will be designed to be just below the knee on 5'3 people and just above the knee on 5'7 people!

(re your other thread, topcashback give 12% on La Senza, so this week I tried some stuff on instore and then bought it online)

Trillian, I'm so naughty have just bought this with your rat3 code!!

alicecrail · 06/06/2009 09:59

Ooh, thanks

TrillianAstra · 06/06/2009 10:09

Ooh, that's pretty Pastel blue is definitely not really me but it's a very nice pattern,

Dresses have arrived!

White stuff deliver really quickly!

Debenhams also deliver really quickly, but they also mess up my address change and only change teh billing address but not the delivery address, so the transaction does go thorugh but they take it to the wrong place. Luckily I hadn't moved far, so went to pick it up from people who now live in my old house.
