Find me a red dress!

Help.

I'm holding a book launch do at the beginning if April. I was thinking I'd like to wear a red dress (but am open to other colours).

I'm near to useless with shopping. I hardly ever go to the high street. I'm a size 16, with massive boobs. Most flattering would be something v neck or a wrap dress but they hardly ever cover my boobsHmm. I've looked at Bravissimo but not keen on anything there.

I like to be quite chique. I'd perhaps like a vintage feel (with a hint of sexy thrown in). Major issue is that I'd like sleeves - short or long or sheer....just sleeves!

I normally just fall into black but as this is a special event I'd like to be more colourful.

Looking for clothes really stresses me. Has anyone seen anything vaguely suitable on their trips to the shops recently?

Quite like this one

and I love this too which is a bargain! I know it doesn't have sleeves - but maybe a little bolero to go with it?

Also Monsoon one is pretty

Omg. Thank you! I like all 3 of those. I love the boo hoo one too. Really like the belt and hem detail. Gah. Wish it had sleeves. May order and try on though.

Thanks.

Gosh thanks. I love the retro ones. Will need to try on I think.

The House of Fraser tuck waist dress looks like a good one for me though. I may have to pop to the shops tomorrow to try on as they're low on stock and I'm unsure of the fit. Must think of the endless boobage.

Great stuff thoughSmile
