    Dresses

    I am very much a trousers person but in the summer I do like to wear a dress , I have quite a few but some I don't wear and others are my favourites that I bring out every summer and I hate to get rid of them , Went for some bread this morning and went to have a look in Yours fashion came out with two lovely long sun dresses one is Black with white polka dots and the other is sort of purple and bluish flowers , soft cotton and just the right length ,as im only 5ft 2inches getting a long dress that doesn't have to be taken up isn't easy , Plus they were only £23 each well I couldn't pass them up at that price , Going to have a look online as the cashier said she thinks there was more colours in that style ,so may end up with more

    I don't wear dresses very often.I'm more into skirts/trousers and tops.I know what you mean about things being too long, as I'm only 5ft just. I have started getting my trousers from Bon Marche, as they do a shorter length which is just right for me.Last time I was in there, I asked why they don't do shorter length skirts.Shop assistant said there is no call for them. It's a shame, because I have seen some lovely skirts in there, but they are way too long.

          Well done Oma on grabbing a bargain,I have got my two bargain dresses for my holiday but then I saw a lovely strappy dress in the Tesco sale,so may pack just that and two maxi dresses.But unlike you I had to lop off about 9 inches on the maxi's to get them to ankle length.

            That's the thing Libra shops think we all 6ft super models don't they these I bought today just skim the ankle so really good length , Glam I have a Per una dress on today its white with a grey flower I bought it about 3 yrs ago and I love it. I will be sad when it isn't fit to wear anymore

                        Since I have been seconded I have mostly been in jeans and tops. I have only really worn skirts and dresses on special occasions. I do have a lot of dresses and skirts though. Tomorrow I am doing a site tour with special needs students at Kings Cross and it is so hot here I think I would be uncomfortable in normal jeans. I think I will wear a pair of light brown chinos which are not as thick.

                        I am going to have to get re-used to wearing skirts, proper trousers and jackets when I go back into the company.

                          Gosh yes jeans are hot at the moment,I have lived in crops or skirts for the last week. Talking about you going back into your company ZIZI did you bother to apply for that other job.

                              I get jeans from Bon Marche, Oma and Nan2, as I am also vertically challenged, and they are cheap too
                              I have a couple of long dresses from there which I bought last summer, in the David Emmanuel range. They are short enough that I don't trip over them
