I'm off out on Saturday night. It's a sit down dinner and dance thing but not too smart as it's a football do.

I've spent ages trying on things I've ordered only to send them back as they just don't suit me. So I've decided to stick to stuff I already own.

I haven't worn this top for ages and I'm not sure it looks ok, I like the colour with the silver shoes/bag but not too sure on the shape of it.

I need something that covers my belly as it is huge and I look 7 months pg, (I'm not exaggerating)

It's either this top or a looser coral one which I love but not sure about with silver shoes.


I'm at the point of not going because I've stressed out so much about it. Please help!

You look lovely OP, love those shoes. Perhaps take a photo with coral tip, but I think this looks perfect for what you have described.

I think the top shoes. D bag are lovely but the trousers look too tight. They are roucheing up
a bit around the knees and it's difficult to see from the pic but might there be a risk of camel-toe? I would team the rest of the outfit with tailored or even wide leg trousers rather than leggings.

Definitely go and have fun! Flowers

I'm seven months pregnant, and I definitely look it. You most certainly don't! Smile

Love the shoes: my favourite part of your very nice outfit, in fact. Please don't stress about it: you look elegant and put-together.

Thanks for your help guys.

This is the coral top which I do prefer because it covers the 'camel toe' area Grin I just wasn't sure of it with silver accessories.

I think the jeans are going to have to be non-negotiable. I really wanted some wide leg trousers or even culottes, but I couldn't find any that didn't make my belly look worse. I feel comfortable in jeans and these are new so are super black and hold my belly in.

Please tell me this outfit looks ok?

Agree with Young girl. The trousers aren't doing you any favours. Go for palazzos

That's what happens when you have to get a grumpy 15yo to take the photo in his messy room.

You look great in both photos. Jeans always give so by the time you get to your do they'll be looser anyway. Have fun. You have a beautiful figure!

I think you look good in both photos but I definitely prefer the coral colour on you and agree that a looser fit would be more flattering when it comes to trousers. Have a lovely time!

Go with the coral. It is summary and loose and very flattering.

This is really helpful, thank you all so much. Flowers

Do the shoes look ok then? I was worried they might be a bit too weddingy? I've only worn them once, when I was a bridesmaid.

I did order some gorgeous looking black, block heel shoes but they were the most uncomfortable things ever!

I much prefer the black, looks nicer with the shoes which I love. Jeans are fine, palazzo pants never look good imho

I like the black best! But coral looks good too. And don't stress about the jeans, they look lovely, they're meant to be tight...

Yes, the gold shoes are great, very now.

The dark top is actually a midnight blue, it's a gorgeous colour but looking at the photos I don't think it's overly flattering.
