Would anyone like to help me find a dress for my birthday night out?

[llynnnn]

It's my 30th birthday coming up and I'm in the process of organisng a night out with my best girl friends, meal then dancing etc to help me drown my getting old sorrows!!

I would love a dress which is dressy but not formal and makes me look younger! (a sort of miracle dress really!)

I am 5'5", size 12, dark hair, wobbly tummy and hate my legs so need to be able to wear thick tights/leggings with it. Also, just to add to the challenge I can only really stretch to about £50.

Ladies, I need your help! Thank you

something structured and tight? Think there actually far more flattering than looser dresses.

do you think bristol? even with a very flabby tummy! and round bum!

ok I've said it before I will say it again big bums are good! and yes definitely, something structured will hold it all in. I was thinking something Victoria Beckham like. Or first dress 3rd page or page ten 3rd dress is lovely to, you are only a 12 after all.

this is a fun colour

murder on the dance floor

nice print

sorry the last one is over budget

the Whistles dress is lovely

i would definitely wear it with black tights until bio oil invents a mirale lotion

I would wear it with a full Spanx body suit and hold in tights untill bio oil invents a miracle solution.

like the print on the 1st one, bristol.
thanks for the links twoboots, i've just been browsing asos and have already saved the first one.

2nd one is a bit bright for me i think! 3rd very nice but yes bit too pricey, unfortunately!

like this in the red colour
nice, but maybe a bit summer casual?
pretty, especially in white, but not sure if could wear black/dark tights with it?

let me know if you hear of a release date for the miracle solution
hold in body suits are the way forward at the mo, until i stop eating so much chocolate!

llynnn do your links again please, they just open the site

oh no, i'm rubbish at links! is this working?

noooo, why wont it work!!??

Have you thought about trying EBay for a cheap designer dress? I've been stocking up on Issa dresses (which are gorgeous and very flattering) at a fraction of their retail price.
The Fashion Outlet on EBay has some great deals - LK Bennett seem to have 50%+ off most of their items!

thanks cavemum, i'll have a look at that. must head to bed now, no doubt dd2 will be up squealing soon
will be back tomorrow though, i love shopping!

I like the third dress. You could definitely wear black tights with it.
