Natural Clothes
This might be TMI, but I suffer from being quite sweaty and I find it really really embarassing. Not armpit sweat but back, under my boobs, face, neck etc. I feel like a man sometimes!!!
My mum suggested I tried wearing natural fibres rather than cheap plastic so I went out and bought some 100% cotton shirts and it worked!!!
I want to get myself some work wardrobe staples that I can wear and feel comfortable in - plain black trousers, shirts and plain jumpers. Where's a good place to find this sort of thing without breaking the bank. Most my work stuff is from Next and it's all plastic!!!
Answer:
Some shops do organic ranges of clothes, I think TopShop does.
Answer:
Hey there
Naturall cotton is good and there is now also bamboo which is great - try adili.com and peopletree.com etc - most of these clothes are fairtrade too which is an added bonus. There is also Natural Fibres (co.uk or com - not sure) There is also Green Fibres - not sure if that is just bedding and PJS but I like to sleep on natural sheets. I think Toast has an organic range too because I have an organic throw for my bed from there.
Hope it helps.
Answer:
Also - just thinking - American Apparel do some organic Tees too.
Answer:
ASOS have an Organic 100% Natural Longline Vest in their sale for £5. It's in the sale section £5 and under.

I'm not normally into this kind of thing, but I would love to wear this out tonight, but what to wear it with? Im 5ft 2, so its more of a dress than a tunic, though you could belt it. I was thinking of some pewter pumps, but im not sure about bare legs - its still pretty cold and i have to go up to London. The sequins are very light gold, but you could wear silver.
Any ideas? I have today to get to the shops!
Answer:
nice dress, like the sequins, pewter pumps would be perfect with that colour, although i would wear metallic heels but thats cos i dont wear pumps though, have a good night !
Answer:
Ooooh, I really like that ;) Yeh, I'd opt for heels. With your height, and the dress being rather shapeless you might end up looking quite young. Maybe something metallic?
Have fun xx
Answer:
thank you.. I have the perfect light gold heels (vintagy) which would be better I know, but I have to take train, tube and walk to get there.. and call me old.. but I already have two blisters!
Dont you just love fashion!!
Answer:
If you've got a bag that's big enough that looks ok with the dress, I'd wear tights or leggings and ballet pumps to get there, then change into your heels and put pumps etc in your bag.

I am a trainee solicitor and work in a fairly conservative corporate law firm. I am really gone crazy trying to find work clothes, more specifically tops. I have a few cute suits from the likes of LK Bennet, and nice court shoes etc, but what I really find difficult to find are suitable tops for inside the suits. I am a 32e and shirts are a no no for me generally because of the gape. I prefer v neck tops as they suit me better than round neck. I can not find anything anywhere! Can anyone help me? Am I the only one with this problem?

Have you tried Bravissimo they do shirts and tops these days although they are quite pricey I think..my Mum is fairly big chested (D) and she shops there. MS are quite generous in their sizing around the chest too I have found. What about some fine knits for under your suits, tank tops and the like..any of that appeal to you?
Answer:
I havent seen anything I have liked in M+S. there just seems to be nothing around!
Tank tops would be fine, but I dont think they would be smart enough for meeting clients etc. and I wouldnt be able to take my jacket off with them underneath

of course yes I didnt think sorry... I think its a bit of a funny time really to be looking, I think Next have great workwear although I'm not sure of the proportions...they have lots of smart non shirt tops though that could be used for work..they have a lot of the type that are smart as a shirt have buttons and detailing etc etc but are really just a pull on top..also what about the shirt with tank top over styles...that would elimate the gaping aspect whilst probably still smart enough for you to take your jacket off???
Answer:
Yeh, I was going to suggest that too. Why not opt for a spagetti strappy top with a tailored shirt over it?

Hotel tips in Amalfi Coast
Anyone been to the Amalfi Coast and got any good hotel tips?
Feeling a bit overwhelmed with all of the options!
Thanks
Answer:
Hiya,
Well, I've never been to that part of Italy before but I did have a quick look at . It looks like there's some good reviews and some bad. Hopefully, reading through some of them will at least help you not feel so overwhelmed with all your options.
Hope that helps.

Answer:
Lovely hotel
I went to Amalfi July 06 and stayed in the Residence Del Duca, it's a lovely little place in town and v. reasonable compared with some of the others. It's right in town but it's only a few minutes walk to the beach. One warning, if you don't like steps don't stay here as there are loads but it helps burn off the cals from all the lovely food.
I stayed in the Gisulfo II room and it's lovely with a terrace area outside. It's a family run hotel and they are so friendly
Here are the reviews from trip advisor
Answer:
When we went about 3 years ago we stayed in the Londra Hotel in Sant Agnello slightly down the road from Sorrento itself but still within walking distance. It was a Thomson "Small and Friendly" hotel and was just that , no pretensions but a genuine family run place with excellent standards and lovely comfortable rooms. The food was fine and the service very good.

Answer:
I got married in Italy last summer - in Ravello on the Amalfi Coast.
There's an absolutely fabulous BB halfway between Amalfi and Ravello called Punta Civita (see the rave reviews on tripadvisor - Roberto was very good to us also). We also stayed in Villa Maria in Ravello which was truly lovely as we had the honeymoon suite for a few nights. Its a stunning part of the world...although I would be wary of the star ratings for hotels as they seem on the generous side relative to other countries I have visited! :lol: :lol: :lol:
