Going to an A list NYE party on a D list budget

[EuroShopperEnergyDrink]

Hello fashionistas, I need your help.

I have managed to nab a place on the guest list of what will be an epic star studded party this New Years thanks to a work placement I did last month... so yay sticks out tongue

Now it's a case of what to wear which has me looking a bit more like this I've put on a few pounds at the moment, and will undoubtedly put on some more over Christmas so I need to buy something new as I have nothing that will flatter me.

My budget is about £50 - £60. I have a naice pair of KG black patent platform shoot boots, with Victorian embossed detailing and a black patent ostrich print bag. My good jewellery is silver, so nothing with gold detailing.

Not terribly fussed on colour- but I'm very pale with black hair and dark eyes, and look best in all shades of red and navy. Would fancy something that had a classy vintage air to it, as I like pin up styling and to match my accessories. Usually shop at Topshop, Jack Wills, DP, Warehouse and Motel.

I'm a size 12, small waist with a rather large bottom..

Do help me out, I'm currently staring at my shit, too small wardrobe and that ever expanding bottom not knowing what to do!

And I'm a stumpy...I mean petite, 5"2...

you lucky girl

Have Warehouse got any of their lovely little silk dresses in at the mo? They are usually about £60.

Or I think the FC sale has started already.

I was excited at first, but the prospect of my fat arms photobombing a shot of a divine supermodel in Armani is quite scary

Help me look fabulous please?!

Where is it?

What sort of dress code?

MerylStrop-

1. Can't say.

2. There isn't a dress code per se- but I've been told by friends who have been to similar things is to dress like you're going to a really swish club. 'There will be a mix of long/short dresses, and the girls will be done up to the nines without it being too stiff and formal' is how my friend put it when I texted her manically!

I like no 2 corny

And we need more details like Meryl said.

Not to mention knowing how to get a job that blags invitations like that too

Hire

CHARITY SHOP
Not a joke
go to a few, ask what they have out the back in your size
be willing to pay up to £20 for good designer, £15 for good high street brand
they come dry cleaned and ready
and if need be you donate them back afterwards for resale

Love the midnight blue vintage one but too pricey.

Love the cowl back and off the shoulder Asos too, corny- but I'm booby as well as lardarsed and I'd be worried about what kind of bra I'd wear

I'd like something that's a bit Nigella Lawson meets high class escort with a retro feel- is that even a thing?

Navy vintage-style dress is lovely corny. I also quite liked the first ASOS option.

OP is there a link to your shoes anywhere?

Ooh hiring is a possibility

Curtsey- my laptop is for lack of a better word, fucked. I'll attempt to boot it up and attach a URL..

In the mean time I'll hunt for the box so I can google the name of them!
