In a couple of hours I am going summer dress shopping - I am rubbish at shopping

[OhYouBadBadKitten]

Help please! (esp as I'll have my hand in a sling)

I don't own any summer dresses at all! am size 8, average height but with large boobs and teeny shoulders. I need dresses that hide bra straps. Am looking for day time flounce about dresses.

colours wise I do have a pretty pale dusky pink cardi that needs a dress to go with. I suit pinks and ermm I dunno what else.

suggestions please!!!!

some really lovely summer dresses at m and co

Is there one in your town?

this is stunning

Me too... especially the covering bra straps thing.

Am sorely tempted to order Boden after reading about it on here, but I've done mail order before and found it right PITA sending stuff back.

that is lovely BALD and very reasonable too. I don't think we do have an m and co, but at least that gives me an image for my head.

I think I suit that colour too.

store finder here

thank you very much BALD

theres one not too far but sadly there arent any other shops worth going to there and dd needs a couple of bits and pieces so our plan is to go and have a mooch in various shops in a big shopping centre and after I've had a strop that I can't find anything we will go there on the way home.

I am loving your stroppy shopping trip already

let us know how you get on

will do!
dd already having a strop cos she doesnt want to go. I can tell this is going to go so well!

dd got her things and we got a gift we needed to get, but nothing for me despite much effort.

I did find that dress at m&co. It did look good on the hangar but on me it gaped loads at the front.

oh well.

oh poo to gaping dress

never mind, perhaps it will rain all summer and I'll be glad for my thermals!
