It’s day 16 of the dresses with sleeves challenge and as it also happens to be International Women’s Day, I just had to include a red dress –a colour synonymous with confidence and vibrancy!
I have chosen the Ponte V Neck dress from Mary Portas at House of Fraser. With ¾ sleeves , this below the knee dress is very structured and should hold you in in all the right places.
Stylish after 50? Absolutely! And better still at the moment it’s in the sale.
Red Mary Portas Dress from House of Fraser £75 (originally £150)

Oh la la! I just Lurve red dresses, especially a deep cherry red and this is a great design; flattering and showing off the curves too. I hope it’s made of stretchy fabric! Very sexy and elegant.
