Hadn't given it much thought until now but I desperately need something to wear to this family event next weekend. Any suggestions?

Most of the gathering being well into old age, I guess anything will do. Apart from jeans or a miniskirt.

So, no one's inspired? Me neither. But I do need help desperately. Here's some more info:

I'm 45, 5ft7 and - at last - a size 12. After ds was born 5yrs ago, I never completely lost the 20kgs I put on until recently, which explains why I have absolutely no idea what to wear, what suits me, what's age-appropriate. I know what I like but can't see myself wearing it. My usual outfit is jeans, t-shirt, birkos and a cardi or fleece when it's chilly. I'm pathetic.

What I need NOW is something not too expensive, something I would be likely to wear again, something fun. Shoes too. Help me, come on!

I reckon something like a really beautiful wrap dress. They hide all manner of things yet look really flattering too. Most places do them in most budgets.
