Nice dress for anniversary dinner please

Ladies, I am calling on your assistance.

I am loking for a nice, not formal, dress to wear to go out for dinner with DH on Sunday evening (started a thread on where to go, in chat, but nobody must live anywhere near Newcastle).

I am 5'2, a size 12/14 with chunky upper arms, big hips (thanks DD) and not a slim waist and large-ish calves. I have an OK bust (C) and dark brown hair. I find it horrifying the idea of wearing a dress without black opaques as I do not like the look of my legs, BUT DH seems blind to my flaws and thinks I look great in a black bag. Thankfully, I have bought my first ever pair of Control Pants (hips, thighs and bum in one) which have smoothed my outline.

Please could you recommend something I could wear.

I am looking to spend £50ish and hope it is something I could wear again.

TIA x

How about something like this? Too casual?

Hmmm...I like the dress, and not too casual, but the print isn't really me.
