I wear black well (so I am told) so it would have to be black dress for me. Have problems with 'boyfriend' style shirts, the collars irritate me.

MaggieSultana · 06/01/2010 13:12

very few folk suit black imo

I have 'cool' colouring apparently, white blonde hair, blue eyes, pale skin. Black looks good as a base, possibly better if some other colour is worn too in form of shawl etc (hot pink/ grey /turquise etc).

Don't wear a lot of black but do have a couple of classic stand-by black dresses (one day, one evening) that are both fab.

Finding a good white shirt is v difficult I find. Think it's easier if you have norks.

Have coulple of very similar dresses, fitted knee length rigid jersey ones almost like Roland Mouret Galaxy type but less dressy. Either that or knitted dresses.

Have got very long body so lots of times tops and shirts are too short.

Good shirt difficult to find, they notmaly have buttons in the wrong place, so you either have a one button too many undone (so look slapper) or one too many done up (so look spinster and have button gapeage which looks awful).

Yes I find that to GOML. But I have an unusual broad shoulders/no norks combo.
