Hi,

I have a fairly 'posh' wedding coming up in two weeks time followed by a black tie do a week later. I'd like to get something new to wear as dont really have anything that could wear to a black tie and most of my wedding dresses are summer based. Budget is fairly low (can't spend more than about £50) and so would like to get a dress that I could wear to both.

I've looked around the usual highstreet places and can't find anything that grabs my eye, have resorted to online and found a couple of ones I like in Next of all places.

I havent tried them on as they are online only but would appreciate some opinions.

Am 35, 5,9, size 12 and blonde with very fair skin.

Any thoughts as to which is better if any? I don't want to end up having to order them all and send back but I might have to do that!

dress 1

pink version

not weddingy enough?

classic?

maternity esque?

I like either no. 2 - pink or 5 - floaty cream. If you can pull them off. I would look like a short sack of potatoes in both but you are lovely and tall.

My favourite is the black classic.one with the sleeves. Im afraid Im.not keen on the rest but that may just be my tastes rather than the dresses.

What about this?

Mortified I do like that but I'm still carrying a bit of pregnancy stomach so prefer nothing too drawn to that area.

Think I might try the black classic and pink ones and do from there, they might both look terrible!
