This is my second foray into S&B, having bought 3 gorgeous skirts recommended to me on here.
My brother has just announced that as he's going to become a dad in April, he and his fiancée (who I love!) are getting married in 7 weeks!!
I need something to wear. There are a few constraints, though.
-
I'm a plus size - but minus-ing! I've gone from a 28 to a 20, (SEVEN stone!) but won't be down to an 18 by the wedding. Due to being on the older side of 40, and 3 humongous babies, I'm very wobbly in the tummy area following my weight loss(am on the waiting list to have excess skin removed but as its a cosmetic procedure, it could be up to 2 years).
-
I have a disability - I may well need to use a stick on the day as I'm wobbly on my feet. So only flat shoes, and I'm a size 10 foot!! My nerve problem has caused trouble with my circulation and I've got skin discolouration and scarring from falls on my lower legs - and I really don't like tights (numb fingers find them hard to get up and down). I'm currently loving the maxi-dresses I got over the summer. So smart trousers or long skirt is best I think.
-
my mother will be there. It's 8 years since I spoke to her, 7 years since I last saw her (and she blanked me - at my Gran's funeral). We have a very very complicated backstory involving her leaving our family with my dads best friend, and much, much more. I need to look as kick-ass as I can! I'm getting my hair cut and coloured the weekend before.
-
I'm tall (5'9") but have short legs and a very long body.
Oh wise style and beauty ladies, can you find me something?
