Help! Need a dress for SIL's wedding.

kennythekangaroo · 14/01/2012 20:07

Wedding is in March, DH is giving her away ad DD is bridesmaid so I need to look presentable.
I'm 41, 5'3", size 10-12 and an apple shape (I think) - no waist, some tummy, 34D, good legs. Hoping to get something for under £80.
I don't do dresses very often and have no idea of what would suit me best or what to wear with it in the way of shrug, shoes etc.

Please help.

collision, I like that!

Thanks for all the suggestions. I think I'm going to buy the 2 teal coast ones - the backless one and the one with the black belt and see which looks best.

oooh, lovely! let us know which one you go for!

NooneLikesAGreyjoy · 15/01/2012 21:12

with the one with the belt, you can get a black shrug or something.

Rats! The one with the belt has apparently gone out of stock while I was putting things in my basket!

Collision · 16/01/2012 22:12

Just get the blue one! Tis lush, cheapish and Karen Millen!!!!

I LOVE the backless teal coat one, really stunning.

kennythekangaroo · 18/01/2012 20:45

That last Karen Millen one is nice too. I'll see what the backless one looks like apparently it's on its way.
