Being a shortie, I did used to wear long tops as dresses.  I had a trouser suit with a shirt top that came just long enough to get away with.  We were not allowed to wear trousers at work (the women that is before somebody asks) so I would go to work in the suit and take the trousers off during the day and wear the top with my boots.   I loved that suit it was red, my boots were red leather with a buckle on the side, I thought I was the bees knees :yahoo:

crabbyob, your granny sounds an amazing lady, have a picture of her in my head, like the old black and white movies dancing the Charleston in the speakeasy's it must have been during prohibition?  Nosy me, how did she get from Chicago back to the UK?
