I was thinking I'd head to Zara it's got to be less that £60 and I have accessories. Anyone seen anything for a busty size 14?

What sort of party? What shops can you get to? With time short it faff with zara at a busty 14 - there's stuff to be had but it's not worth the frustration of half the stuff not fitting.

I'm a busty size 10 and Zara is a nightmare for me - I have to buy things in size large!! Is there an H&M near you? I find their clothes fit my shape pretty well.

H and M near me is like a jumble sale. I have the choice of a Peacocks, Matalan, Zara, Fenwicks, Top Shop, Bannana Republic or Whistles which I can't afford and all the major supermarkets! I hate being broke. It's in acpub so not overly formal.

If it's only in a pub, do you have to get something new?

If so, could you just get a nice top to go with jeans you already own?

I am busty size 12 and Banana Republic is my favourite for dresses. They have excellent sales too

It's with a load of high maintenance women all ten years younger than me! When I say pub I mean one of them ropftop garden jobbies. I know it's very northern of me, feel like I need a new outfit everytime I go out which is rare

I bought a lush deep v camisole from top shop last week. That with a jacket of some sort- bomber or blazer or biker, skinny jeans or trousers, heels, statement necklace?

Yes, it's very flattering and covers your belly. It's a silky material and hangs really nicely.
