OK, so this country bumpkin, usually found in jeans and teeshirt in her spare time, and has just been told the project she is working on has been shortlisted for an industry award, please can I go for a black tie dinner, Central London in Sept....
What do I wear? Full length? Or can I get away with shorter?
5"6, verging on obese, size 14 (in Next and M&S), got a waist at the top of my hips, and big norks (G). Empire lines are out, as are high necks.
Blue eyes, brown hair (frizzy - any ideas on what to do with it?), and generally look a state.
Budget: well, its never going to be worn again! £100 all in??? Shoes pretty much will be these but they have a line of gems along the edge, and are now died black - they are about the only heal I can walk in. I don't really do jewellery either, so will need most accesories... Maybe thats going to have to go up to £150??
Anyone want to help me out? Prefer not all black.
