Can anyone help me find a nice top as an alternative to a dress for Christmas Party?

DH's aunty is hosting a family Christmas party and I have no idea what to wear! It's during the day so my DC will be coming with us and I'm still BF my 4 month DS so a dress is probably a no-go as will need access.

I'm petite but still carrying baby weight, especially around the middle...I don't want anything too sparkly as concerned about resembling a bauble :-) Equally, I don't think my baggy maternity clothes (only thing in my wardrobe which I can get in!) will cut it! So I've been looking for a evening/dressy top which will disguise my ample tummy (and which I will be able to lift to BF), but so far have had no success...any ideas/suggestions?

How much do you want to spend and can you visit the shops or need an online purchase? What are your colourings and what will you wear with it?

I know it's a frock, but it looks like you could wear it as a normal dress for a while.

On-line would be easier for me. I'm blonde and was planning on wearing my jeans (with hair bobble holding together as can't do them up)...although if I could find the perfect top to wear with a skirt I would splash out and buy a skirt too as my legs aren't too bad.

That's a lovely dress...but I would worry that I still look pregnant in it

I should add that discreet BF won't be an issue as I can use one of the bedrooms, but I would rather not have to undress completely :-)
