Help me find a nice dress?

[DontCallMeBaby]

DH and I are going away for my birthday next month, to the hotel we got married in - posh dinners and all that. I really don't have anything to wear - it's truly remarkably how I never have anything to wear for any event other than going to work or lolling about the house. I did have a pretty nice LBD from Bravissimo but I lost weight and now it's too big, doesn't really do anything for me.

I'm not after anything amazing, in fact if it's a bit anonymous I would feel better about wearing it for dinner both nights! Sad really ... Anyway, I'm 5'4", size 12 on the bottom and 14 on the top (or still a 16 in some styles, 32G boobs, a Bravissimo 12SC). I find it's rare anything with an underbust seam fits me properly, unless it's specialist, so that rules a lot of stuff out. I think I can still get away with wearing black (the weekend away is for my 40th), but day to day tend to wear grey instead; I also wear a lot of purple and bright pink. Oh, and my hair will be dark purple again by then (just as soon as I get an hour to myself in the bathroom).

Any thoughts? I'd pay up to £150 for something really nice, but cheaper is better.

One little bump in case all the fashionistas were out having fun last night ...

I've just seen this on another thread, Don'tcallmebaby, and I think it's gorgeous ( but it might not be at all what you're looking for ) m.debenhams.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/prod_10001_10001_54510+201660351_-1?breadcrumb=Home%7EWomen%7EDresses
Have you looked on Asos too ? I am elderly but have bought some verrrrry nice ( and cheapish ) dresses from there.
You probably need some S&B expert like Tethers ...

Ooh, that's quite nice. We have a Phase Eight locally - I think the answer may be 'get off arse and into town' (I'm a terror for internet shopping out of pure laziness). :)
