A man my hubby gives a lift to work is getting married in 6 weeks. We kinda expected an evening invite but they arrived yesterday and we are to go to the whole dayShock

I was thinking of white trousers and a nice pink floaty top but dont know where to get this. Have looked in my catalogue but none. thought of a trouser suit but none i like either.

I am a size 18/20 so any ideas piccys would be gratefully appreciated

jambuttie · 13/03/2006 19:42

and i know this aint pink but what about this one

fashionworlduk.drct2u.com/productcache/FW/BO2039/LPG11021971/TQ206AY_ORIGPO_0.html

only downfall is my boobs are 43G and would need a strapless bra, may be really pissed and they might fall outBlush

OP posts:
cod · 13/03/2006 19:44

neither link works
i think esposing boobs is vert bad form at a wedding adn the top hald fo a 43g will NOT look nice

cod · 13/03/2006 19:45

surely a 43 g starpless bras existeth not

OOOOOOOh god don't get that pink top, it's ghastly and anyone over a size 12 in that would look like Hattie Jacques! Grin

cod · 13/03/2006 19:49

well she aint going to be twiggy is she

meggmoo · 13/03/2006 20:02

I think the Dark Rose Printed 2 In 1 tunic top from evans would look great with some smart white trousers.

\link{http://www.evans.co.uk/promostores/Evans/index.html?make_live=yes&promo=\click on the left hand side where it says tops, then onto tunics}

The Pink Cotton Cover Up (in the fashion tops section) looks good too with a white vest under?

GDG · 13/03/2006 20:04

Not read thread, but surely white trousers are a no-no unless a size 8 with no lumps and bumps?

I think it would dress down well too with nice jeans. I agree that white trousers may look dodgy if you're not wearing the right knickers. Make sure you get those flesh coloured magic ones, they are brill Grin
