Thanks Sara - it's so much better than I expected...so yes, a keeper! Ax

Oh you are so right Marlene! He knows a money making opportunity when he sees one!
Thanks for the tip about ankle straps - that's a great idea that I think would work really well too. But of course, now I have an ankle strap shoe shaped hole in my wardrobe...Ax

Hope you love it too - you'll have to send in a picture for the Room 31 show & tell! Ax

Thanks Nat! Ax

Thanks Jenny - I have a 9 year old with an empty money box. He's so keen to earn extra pocket money so asks when doing any task for me around the house! He's a chancer, I say! :) Ax

2013-04-29T19:41:39.413+01:00

Hubby was bemused - wasn't so keen on it on it's own but thought it looked well with the jacket! It's a look that grows on you I think! Ax

2013-04-29T19:40:50.952+01:00

Thank you Sharon - you'd really suit one also. Get yourself over to Room 31! Ax

Thanks for that Trea - hadn't thought about those boots but they would be PERFECT with it. Off to try that one now. You're a star, Ax

Thanks Joanna - my spanx twin! haha x

Thank you - so glad that everyone identifies with that last picture. It's not just me who does that face then! Ax

Can't wait to see yours on you - it sounds great...off for a peek at your blog now! Ax

Aw - thank Helen. That jacket from Dunnes is eons old but it never fails to get an outing every few months. Ax

2013-04-29T19:06:18.206+01:00

I reckon I feel like this about 6 times a day! And I do have a jelly belly but I think the pattern is quite deceptive...thankfully! Ax PS pilates works magic - I swear by it! x

Hahaha! Love your outtake. You look amazing in this midi, high five for being brave enough to try it. Definitely a keeper.

LOL!. Your son is a natural capitalist!! LOLOL! You've got such an incredible figure. I could go for ankle strap stilettos (haha... me and my ankle strap) or awesome gladiator heels, lose the jacket for a more simple and longer coat.

2013-04-26T01:51:41.931+01:00

I have ordered your midi (with the code of course!), it looks fab! Love the out take pic too, exasperation in a photo :)

My goodness, you can both so wear a midi, they look so flattering on you both! x

2013-04-25T12:21:02.898+01:00

You both look absolutely stunning Avril, and your house sounds just like mine, my oldest has been asking for a while how much will she be getting for helping me figure out twitter etc, and I've just realised it will be cheaper to invest in a tripod! Nikki x

2013-04-24T22:59:58.174+01:00

Avril - I can't stop laughing at your last paragraph - especially your 9 yr old asking how much you would pay him - classic! The dress looks great on you both ways but I especially like it with the shoe boots (love em). I think you can safely say you've rocked the midi! xx

2013-04-24T19:51:36.959+01:00

I absolutely love this this look, it's current, classy, and age appropriate.....even if the 16 year old's are giving it a go they just can't pull off in the way a confident woman of the world can! I bet you felt pretty damn good in it, and I bet your hubby loved it too?! xx

2013-04-24T17:32:16.544+01:00

Hehe, love this last photo-this is real family life behind the lens cap!! The dress is gorgeous on you, I am on a mission to get something similar and you've given me style inspiration with these different looks, well done! xxx

2013-04-24T13:38:43.994+01:00

Love the going out look Avril, the chunkier boots look great with it. Black ankle boots and black tights would also look great for day time, and I am I right in thinking you have taupe ankle boots? That would look great with bare legs and a denim jacket (or even a denim shirt) too! Gorgeous on both of you skinnies!!x

Not so keen on the school run look but love love love the other one! You look fantastic! You can so definately rock this look! XXX
