I don't know your feelings on Boden, but they have this in pink

not just for evening imo

piprabbit · 18/02/2010 18:13

Try www.simplybe.co.uk they have a huge range of dresses.

I got my fav ever dress from Anna Scholz for Simply Be, but sadly this seasons designs are a little odd but I like this one and this one for example.

I quite like that Boden dress in the blue PP and 3/4 sleeves is perfect as won't get too cold.

I think I might get that one and wear with navy pumps I already have

PDR - the Boden one only comes in pink as blue has sold out.

Lovely wrap dresses in navy in M&S.

PDR · 18/02/2010 19:29

Oh no! Dam those blue dress stealing boden-ites!

What a shame!

Will keep looking at links after 'enders!

Thanks all!

Oh Poppity sorry the frock wasn't up to much. The boots didn't sell though had 20 watchers!! had two emails afterwards offering me the start price so relisted them for a chap and he bought them.
I got 45 so no profit but happily covered me Thanks again for sending them!

PoppityPing · 18/02/2010 20:53

Oh good Flight, I'm glad you got your money back- what a journey those boots have been on!

I am so over the dress, currently lusting after this, think I have an interesting neckline fetish.....

The evening one comes in blue in a 20 PDR, do you particularly like blue?

PoppityPing · 18/02/2010 20:53

Seems like you prefer pattern to plain too?

PDR · 18/02/2010 21:01

PP funny you suggested Kaliko, I've just ordered some tops for work from there - some really nice stuff. Never heard of them before.

It seems I do like blue [saddo] esp polka dot so with that in mind, I'm going to go for the LA Navy polka dot number I mentioned earlier.

Hope 20 won't be too tight or I'll have a wardrobe emergency and have to wear something I've worn before (to an event with mostly the same guests).

Might go easy on the carbs until next week LOL

THANKS to everyone for all the great suggestions!

PDR, if you haven't already bought, they have lots of forties dresses here in your size, including navy polka dots!

PDR · 20/02/2010 16:46

Hey PP thanks for the link - I've already ordered the LA dress so it should be winging its way to me as we speak!
