Bear with me, a bit of a long post!
Basically, I need an outfit to wear to DP's brother's wedding. I'm extremely nervous about the whole event as DP's parents are not my biggest fans, for reasons unclear to both DP and me , so I really want to make sure that I pick an outfit which will look like I've made appropriate effort whilst not being over the top.
Added to this is that after battling with being overweight and managing to get from a tight size 24 refused to try a 26 I was a much happier and more confident size 18, to then be hit by a serious medical issue and have ended up back at a size 20/22 - although I am now back on the diet and at the gym, and making progress again. I have nothing in my wardrobe that's suitable (got rid of all my fat clothes and can't fit into the new ones ) so need to buy something. I'm pretty down at having gone back up a size or so, and feeling fat and frumpy, so when added to the first bit, I'm completely unsure as to what to pick.
I really fancy this dress elsiesattic.co.uk/shop/dresses/blue-polka-dot-ophelia-dress/ but just would appreciate a few opinions - positive or negative - and also thoughts about the net underskirt issue - do I get one or not? I'm tending to like this style as I think it might be quite forgiving?
Thanks in advance.
