Just popping in to say a quick thank you to the Fabber who suggested this dress on @LisaP's post. It came today and it is just the thing. It is a thick linen-cotton blend, not flimsy at all, and lined (in polyester, but still - hard to find a lined summer dress that isn't flimsy these days, and this is it.)

I really like the cheery colours and the length. I ordered the 4P and it sits right at my natural waist. The V neck isn't too big, the arm holes fit just right and do not gape, and the skirt is wide but not overwhelming. Plus there is no annoying seam in the back where the fabric doesn't match up (I hate that.)

It's a quite well made dress for $40 and I'm sure i'll live in it this summer. I love that it is cheap, honestly, so I can lounge in it around the house and not worry about spilling tea on it (which happens more frequently than you might think )

I'll take a photo when I wear it, but just wanted to post in case others were considering. A tip - when looking at the other dresses on their website - look carefully at the fabric - some are linen-cotton like this, but some are linen-rayon or polyester, which would not be great for summer.
