Killer top needed to go with skinny jeans Please :)

thesnailandthewhale · 06/12/2011 20:47

I have our works night out in a pub next weekend and the hot guy I've been after for a few weeks will be there and I want him to be wowed Grin We've been out for coffee already and were arranging another date for next weekend then realised its the work night out so will both be there anyway.

So, I will be wearing black skinny jeans and heels and want a killer top to go with it, probably black (then will wear red shoes), I would like something fitted, maybe a corset / one shoulder top? It also needs to be suitable for dancing in, so nothing that I will fall out of (am not that big, 36B) I'm a size 12 and rapidly heading towards 40 so nothing too revealing for fear of looking muttony, but it needs to be sexy and fitted. Any ideas please?? Smile

Can I humbly suggest that skinny jeans and a skintight top/corset might look a bit try-hard/unflattering - a looser top (but still with shape) would be classier and can still be var sexy...do you like any of these:
plum
gorgeous chiffon
sequin stripes with split shoulders

sheer spotty

feather one

Corset + skinny jeans sounds very muttony.

Grey sparkly

Glitter - also comes in blue

Subtly sexy

lovely colour

Love this with a black vest underneath

Ooh there are some beauts on Ted Baker

Drapey

Lacy

Spotty

Frilly

Skinny jeans sound good, corset top does not ... Topshop do a gorgeous sparkly gold top with black chiffon sleeves and chiffon back. It's relatively simple but quite effective looking I think Smile

Love the red sequin on bunny and the gold vest...I want it!!

Definitely agree that skinnies and a tight top or corset might not be the way to go. Love fauxfox's suggestions, fashionable and classy! Here are some more:

spotty

peter pan collar

sleeveless cute cat print

more spots!

Adore this

Thank you all for your ideas, I absolutely love the asos sequin disk one but they only have it in a size 6 Sad ... off to see if there are any on ebay Smile

Ah shite sorry Sad

similar?

pretty

thesnailandthewhale · 07/12/2011 22:01

Thankyou Bunny, I really liked the winey colour of the first one, not so keen on the pinky ones, sorry am a fussy b*gger Smile

I agree with you all about the corset, having googled some lol, I meant that I wanted something quite fitted rather than too flaoty / baggy. I have lost a fair bit of weight recently and finally am happy to wear something that shows my shape Wink

WOO! Grin

Report back once it arrives!

thesnailandthewhale · 13/12/2011 07:19

The top arrived yesterday and its lush Grin I went for a 14 but probably could have done with a 12, but even so its fine and I will wear it friday night. Thank you so much Smile

I also ordered one after looking at the suggestions on this thread and it is indeed fab! Good old mumsnet. Not sure how long the discs will stay on though! Have a good night
