Gorgeous bargain dress for curvy ladies but what to do about bingo wings?!

Just bought this dress for the completely bargainous price of £10 and it's absolutely lovely, looks like it cost a lot more - lovely thick material and an extremely flattering cut that accentuates my good bits (small waist, big boobs) while hiding the less good bits (not so flat tummy) and it's got straps wide enough to hide bra straps without looking frumpy. It's the perfect party dress and I would have paid much more for it, to get it for £10 is the bargain of the year! I am only going to one Christmas party so really didn't want to spend that much, now I am looking for more socialising opportunities just so I can wear this again!

On the downside the one thing it doesn't cover is my arms which could do with some work. What's the quickest way I can make them look better in 3 weeks? I am thinking workout with baked bean cans, body scrub and a light fake tan - anyone got any better ideas?

No neither can I now - it's called Satin Sweetheart Neck Dress on the Tesco Clothing site

Tricep dips are your friend!
Also put your arms straight out behind you and pulse them up and down for 100, side to side for 100.
Also do a mini arm workout just before you leave for your party - also in the loo at the party to keep your muscles 'fluffed'

Tracy Anderson Mat workout. Just do the arms (OK, you can do it all if you must) every day - it may take you a while to work up the whole 15 mins. I'll second the tip from TracyK

Thanks, not sure why it wasn't working, I'm usually pretty good with links!

I think your post caused it to sell out, that's why!
