As the title says - can you help me? I have a bash to attend. I never usually wear heels, but had thought of these:

m.evans.co.uk/mt/www.evans.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=25&viewAllFlag=&catalogId=33054&storeId=12553&productId=6209124&langId=-1&sort_field=Relevance&categoryId=209435&parent_categoryId=&pageSize=24&refinements=category~[209459|209435]&noOfRefinements=1

With this top:

m.evans.co.uk/mt/www.evans.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=73&viewAllFlag=&catalogId=33054&storeId=12553&productId=6555594&langId=-1&sort_field=Relevance&categoryId=209427&parent_categoryId=&pageSize=24&refinements=Colour{1}~[black]^category~[209441|209427]&noOfRefinements=2

I thought I might go for some skinny (ha ha!) jeans too. What do you think?

I think that will look great :) what makeup? Smoky eyes?

PerryCombover · 03/12/2012 23:19

what's the bash
what age
height
shape?

those things would look great on anyone I think.
What do you normally wear?

piprabbit · 03/12/2012 23:22

Have you tried Evans pear-shape cut jeans? (not sure if you are a pear from your OP) - they have been a revelation and let me wear at least one (or sometimes two) sizes smaller than usual.

PerryCombover · 03/12/2012 23:25

Have you looked here I think ASOS generally is hit and miss but it's worth a snoop

Smoky purple eyes, Themilky.

It's a party for staff & contractors at a mill near us, so dress ranges from subbies in jeans & polo shirts to MD's wife in sequinned mini dress!

Shape... Big tum, bum, boobs and thighs (hence the long top).
Age : 41
Height : 5'7"

I normally wear jeans & Converse with a nice top.

I tried some Pear jeans in my size. They covered my boobs!!! Grin

Did you try a size 18 or 20?

Going into Evans in an old pair of 26 jeans and coming out in a new pair of 20 jeans was the biggest confidence boost ever - I don't care if it is vanity sizing Grin.

ViperInTheManger · 03/12/2012 23:35

Chameleon, you are the same height and dress size as me and i think that outfit is bloody gorgeous. I might go to Evans and see if they have something similar for me!

PerryCombover · 03/12/2012 23:46

Next tunic again dunno what they're like for you I think they size large. i liked this, shape and colourwise, as another option other than bLACK

ChameleonCircuit · 04/12/2012 13:22

Might give the size change a try, Pip!

Perry - 24 is out of stock Sad

Love the first top you linked to. But I really just posted to say I love your user name. My DD is a huge Chameleon Circuit fan!

ChameleonCircuit · 04/12/2012 13:53

Themumsnot - I have bought the top in my original post. It's lovely!

CC are brilliant. My kids sing Kiss the Girl almost word perfect. Grin
