THE DRESS IS ON
and its great
i reccy

NorkyButNice · 16/06/2009 09:54

I bought it in navy at the weekend (went into shop planning to get either green or black but the green was too bright and they didn't have black). The purple was lovely but I've already bought 2 purple jersey dresses in the last couple of months...

Love the fit but can't decide if the navy is too school uniform-esque?

Would a red belt be a bad thing to add?

PhaseAte · 16/06/2009 10:15

i htink a belt would interrupt the line from the bust
the green is very bright and am not sure about the purple.

the navy i have on today looks better on me, nto school uniformy if you add jewllery surely

fishie · 16/06/2009 10:33

i would have got the navy, you are right about strong colours as it is a really nice blue, not dull at all.

am now stuck at hmoe with chickenpoxy boy so have all the time in the world for internet shopping....

PhaseAte · 16/06/2009 10:35

oh great
get going and I will come back when cleaning done

fishie · 16/06/2009 11:03

debenhams seem to have a large number of 16 dresses on sale.
this which i gather is very on trend and a good shape for me. but it is a little busy - smaller pattern better with hair.

pinko but worried about those pockets

wrap not ideal

fishie · 16/06/2009 11:10

on to hof..

lovely for someone who isn't me

not many sizes left, rather formal

fishie · 16/06/2009 11:11

bugger cabbage not good enough to warrant two links!

fishie · 16/06/2009 11:40

HaventSleptForAYear · 16/06/2009 11:53

Don't like those last two but the patterned ones are nice (debenhams).
