the perfect summer dress

sorry for the massively girly post, but i'm in the market for the perfect summer dress (tm) and aint gettin anywhere fast. here's what i need

length: it can't be a mini, i want to be able to walk, run, sit down, you know, actually live in this dress without having to wear leggings/tights or constantly fear breeses.

coverage: needs to contain top half with no need for layering with cami tops. i understand this is a tall order for most places. sleeves etc i don't really mind what goes on there.

flatterage: dress cannot be a sack with strategically placed holes.

fun: dress should be in summery colour.

easyness: dress cannot take more than a minute to put on/adjust. no fiddly bits pls.

decency: dress cannot be see thru. i do not wanna be spending moneys on something that i have to wear other clothes with in order to maintain decency.

any ideas? really it shouldn't be this difficult!!

republic, summertime, shopping, happy

first, the dress, which is gorgeous. shame there's no where to wear it!!
bit dull but i liked, i wanna try out the whole frills thing at some point
very cute bag, i love it already, very much.
last time i went with the checks, i lost out in a big way, they just weren't rly me... so nothing can really explain why i want this ugly top, i just do.

beach

I rly want to go to the beach soon, watch this space!!!
