I've been doing very well from New Look. Their website keeps crashing though. I think they're still a bit new to the internet.

Thank you. Should have known you'd be bang on trend
Oh don't I'm cringing. If dodgepot hadn't quoted I would have edited.
I'm too old for this thread I think. I don't know what but-ters means
ps madusa, I know where you live too
yer, I remember telling you. But that Mel...she's shifty.
I know where you live too, trashy.
Ha! I @ this last page!
Sparklefish- Je t'adore! You usually say what needs saying and you do it with flair! I dig it muchly.
Also its a toss up between Bang On Trend and the oft repeated "Fashion Forward" for the most irritating phrase beloved by celebrity stylists!
B.O.T will date more quickly and should be gone by the end of the season, along with high waisted trews and tiered ra-ra dresses.
Dodgepot, thank your the Sarf Lahndon>>Norf Lahndon translation. Butters does indeed mean not attractive.
Trashy- My use of 'butters' probably dates me considerably, and probably is no longer in general use by the young people. Which is a shame.
Mads- Me shifty?! Mwah hahahahaha!

Crap at link things but I've just seen some excellent 50's style frocks from a company called Dollydagger. I want.
As a secondary school teacher I can reassure you that the term butters (it derives, I believe, from butt ugly) is still being used by the yoot and will not date you at all.Trashy- My use of 'butters' probably dates me considerably, and probably is no longer in general use by the young people. Which is a shame.
(Btw I heard one kid calling another kid a spastic the other day. I can't believe that's still in use! We used to use that when I was at primary school in the non-PC late 70s.)
Dollydagger stocks Vivien of Holloway frocks iirc. Are these the lucious dresses to which you refer? http://www.vivienofholloway.com/index.php
One of my friends calls me 'spakko' all the time.
What about Joey? http://www.judascow.com/joey.html

Not quite the 'daytime' look I was hoping for.
So you're saying you wouldn't go to Tesco's on Acre Lane in this understated little number?
Why not?

Oh yeah, see what you mean. I often look like I've rifled through the 'dressing up box' during the day but I can see how those would maybe not be 'summer frockks'
Here's the Dolly Dagger site: http://www.dollydagger.co.uk/products.asp?cat=26
I think we should all pick our favourite.

I dont know what you're talking about, but I could never be seen in anything like that: the day you see me in a white box with a red x on it, is the day they bury me, do you hear?!

I dont know whether anyone else can see the image - many images dont get through at work.
I'm at home and I can't see it either. Don't know why it won't work. Bloody thing!
Yeah it is nice, but definitely wouldnt suit me.
I want the Stella Doll Dress in red.
Bugger. Is 42 too old to dress like a dolly?
Not at all...isnt Barbie in her 60's or somesuch?
