I have a size 10 waist, 32E norks, good legs, flabby tummy.
I am going to my mate from college's wedding. The ex who broke my heart at 18 (yeah I know, 9 years on it shouldn't be important) and the bitch friend who betrayed me (with said ex) will be there.
I want to look good.
Indie/rock type friends and I want to feel "me" (also indie/rock) so not too flouncy iyswim.
Hmmm, does it have to be a dress? They're all a bit flouncy at the moment. I've seen lots of gorgeous dresses around but the nice ones are all about £200!
Flame, I would go for something like a pair of skinny jeans and a vest with some killer heels. No suitable dresses, and the skirts are all a bit ra ra? You're not an emo are you?
That could work - have a pair of stilletto sandals, or my mate said I could borrow her black patent ones. Spent ages trying on fabulous shoes in new look the other day, but couldn't have walked in any of them
Lol! I am still pondering - computer died last night and have been out all day.
I like that last dress (I like lots of the other stuff too) - pondering if that with magic knickers could work.
Next Weds I have time without DS, so I will head to town (which conveniently has the shops linked to ) and try and find everything to try on! If you're really lucky I will go armed with a camera and you can help choose
flame i think coloru will be anough to be kind of alternativey so we ned a dress that is low cut and coloured then if needs be wiht shoe boots or shoes then leggins id needed.
Do look on ASOS - they have such good priced stuff and most of it is super trendy - I have good legs and flabby tum and I cover up to mid thigh and then have long legs out and don;t have to worry about the rest of me - have lots of long sort of tunic dresses like this one!
Ah, OK. So, have I got this right? Long of leg, shorter of upper body and big norks? The frills and tie on the DP one might disguise the littleness of your waist... Can't be having that
I will head down there on Weds Cod I can't go before as it involves taking DS which is never gonna be a fun idea.
I do really like the DP one, and I wouldn't need a new bra for it (big big bonus there!!!) -can spend the bra money on shoes.... who needs bras anyway?
