That dress is very on trend with what's around in the shops at the moment.....why do you want to change it, is it to short? Wrong shape? Need it to go with something else?

I'd have thought it would look fab with some leggins or footless tights and pumps. You can always change the look of it with different jewellery or one of the waterfall waist coats that some shops are doing.

It's a bit short for me really... probably cos my bum is too far. The lining is too short to even skim my bum!! I did try it with black woolly tights but just don't feel comfy. Another couple of inches on the length would make it more comfy I think.

Wow I'm so ahead of trends then, I bought that dress in the sale well over a year ago!

But never worn it.... maybe just cream lace then?

I suppose I need help with what to wear it with too! Black pumps? I need a personal stylist. I know what I like, just not how I should wear it x

why is it some songs make you want to cry but you don't know why? Radio is playing Kate Bush Wuthering Heights and it always makes me want to cry :huh:

is she skint and her dj mates are trying to make her some money? I heard it twice yesterday on radio 2!
it is quite sad when you listen to the words but I tend to dance around like a loon pretending to be her instead:o...

Talking of songs DS has been playing John Lennons Imagine all day.
Its sad but also uplifting.

If you try and add anything to the bottom, because of the positioning of the pockets and the lining, you're going to end up with a dress that looks like it's been made to look longer, rather than something kooky and customised.

Shove it on ebay whilst they're "in" and get your money back on it

True! Worth a try..... I think it was meant to be £44 in the shop at the time.

I might try it on one more time and see how I feel, think about it with pumps. (I don't have any as I destroyed my last couple of pairs!)

Couldn't you just wear the dress over jeans (or jeggings if you're young/slim/brave enough! :rotfl: None of which I am!)?

I have a couple of dresses that are a bit short for an 'early 30s' Mum of two, so I wear them with opaque tights or over jeans.
