I want a sparkly dress for Christmas parties...

[RefereezaWanka]

What do you reckon to this?

Or any other suggestions welcome. I'm tall and a 12-14 with a mum-tum. Rather not get my upper arms out and don't like anything too short. Good legs, though.

Shoe suggestions would be great, too

This from ASOS might be too short, but I love how they've styled it with black tights.

This is nice - just a bit of embellishment

Thank you! Really like the second one but not how it's styled. What tights would you wear it with? Black might be a bit too much black, iyswim.

That's where I'd probably fuck it up with some studded platforms and purple tights or somesuch.

someone with more sense will be along soon

Bit more sparkle than the other LBD

Oooh, like that one@Patty. But too short? And clingy to my fat tum? I have a weird shape, really. Fairly slim-ish everywhere but post c-section fat tum that has never shifted. Scared of looking muttonous (am 34).

thousandDenier - I am shit with shoes. I live in boots in the winter and have no taste or even opinion on most shoes. I need help with that, too, MAJORLY

I like the one you suggested first but here are some more suggestions...

a bit like the first one but see through sleeves

in red or blue

sparkly sleeves

not sure if it's Christmassy

more expensive and see through sleeves

more classic and less sparkle

Best sparkly dress around, IMO

house of fraser sparkly
debs
bloomingdales..thick tights required

I love this this whole look love it
love it
love it

love that topshop
love the ted baker smudged but would make my shoulders look massive

bit ethnic?

The P8 dress is lovely - I saw this whilst shopping last week.
Love the coast dress and the silver Bloomingdales dress is gorgeous, want it need, it, no occasion to wear it

Tethearse, LOVE that zara one, but i fear it would make my norks look cartoonlike :( i might go in and try it on...

Slash neck very good with boobs IMO.

Have you seen the gok wan collection in sainaburys. Really nice dresses with secret support. Glam up with killer heels and spanks and your off

I love that ASOS dress in the second post SO much, it'd be perfect for a wedding I'm going to. And it's bloody sold out.

Damn you ThousandDenier.

oh bugger, that flew out quick! I was dithering about getting that one too. Looks like I won't now.. :(

There's low stock in a size 8 now. Will be watching.
