I am featuring on Channel 4 for the britain's most Frougal person since i saved alot on my recent buying-phone contract, baby stuff and furniture(owing to my husband's posting)
Is actually confused on what to choose amongst this one with beige pants or this
Want to keep light accesorries, u think shd i go with a scarf, or any jewellery at all?
Pls suggestions needed fast as its sometime arnd end of the month.
Thanks in advance!

I think the black one looks too "cocktail frock" try hard. if orange is a colour which suits you, I'd go with that one.

I like the dress too. I don,t think it's cocktail at all it could look quite casual with the right accessories not too glitzy

Orange top but I wouldn't do beige trousers. Black pencil skirt or black skinny cropped trousers with some fab shoes.

Since you're looking at a top in Debenhams, do you live near one? Perhaps you could book one of their free personal shopper sessions? You could tell them exactly what it's for and they could advise. Agree that the dress is lovely but you may want something brighter for TV?

Good luck!!
