Dont ignore this thread please - if you need a style challenge I am it!

[fashionistadisastainnit]

I am 30 years old and a size 28 (is there a die of shame emoticon I've missed?)

Ive namechanged because I am so hideously embarrassed, however, I have a posh wedding to attend in 3 weeks and need something to wear.

help me please?

I dont have loads of money, am about 5ft 7 and hate my arms and tummy, not too sure on rest of me either. have crippling self esteem issues but no wonder really!! Oh and I cant wear very high heels.

Any ideas?

i had thought about these but I have no clue what to wear them with, at all.

So, can anyone help me? I am getting very nervous about it all now....

oh great ...go girl ...get the dress!!!!

Thanks betterbatterbullseye

ggirl ha! that second skirt is lovely but its almost EXACTLY like the bottom half of my bridesmaids dresses from my wedding.

off to put kids to bed - any more advice would be great as cost of that dress + shrug + shoes etc is at top end of my budget.

hope you find something
remember there is 20% off 1st order from curvissa

You could try Dressipi. They should provide you with suggestions.

I like this one also from that site as someone with small norks I would say use them to your advantage! The emerald colour is gorgeous and could weat a black shrug

How about a dress with sleeves?

like the last two of tethers but they would really need to be worn with some sort of heel

I see a very curvy largee woman on the tracey fucking beaker show (god help me) who looks fantastic in really colourful clothes.

Thanks all, lots more to think about....tethersend I like a lot of those dresses but I think youd have to be very toned around the middle for a few and I, erm, am not.

How about this with a shrug type thing and nice shoes eitjer same colour or metallic.
Go for it, don't try and hide

If you're looking for a great scarf to accessorise your outfit with, try Mango, they have loads of unusual colours and patterns.

Do you think you might fit into a 26? I am borderline 28 (dies of shame too) and often get things from Asos dress 1 I just ordered dress one, there are a few nice dresses on there, worth having a look?

Thanks all. I have ordered the dress I linked to witht he hanky hem. Have also ordered a silver bolero.

Am going to wear opaque tights - what colour shoes should I wear? Silver? Purple? Would black with a small heel be ok? Can you wear peeptoes with black tights??? I thought not but have seen a few people doing it of late....
