What an astonishin array of EXCELLENT suggestions, many many thanks to all. I ended up using "Embrace style" and also marybro's "Dress with style" I wish I could share points out, Simon gets them for the embrace suggestion which ended up working fine (in the end it needed more than just "dress like this", tho from my Q you werent to know this) Thanks again for all your help :o)))
