dress needed!

Looking for a dress, maybe jersery material? maybe wrap style? Black or red preferably. Knee length (on someone 5' 3"), v neck or sweetheart neck - definitely not a high neck, 3/4 sleeves. Know what I want but just a case of finding it! Size 10 but still a bit wobbly post baby. Budget £60ish. Any ideas?!

I'm similar height to you, size 8/10. I recently bought this dress in black and the same in wine: www.johnlewis.com/kaliko-ponteroma-dress-black/p626000
Both went back unfortunately. Looked matronly and boring on me and no amount of accessorising would have make them suitable for a Christmas party.

I have just received this one: www.houseoffraser.co.uk/Therapy+Pique+skater+dress/185516388,default,pd.html
but unfortunately it is way too high waisted and looks childish and rubbish. It's going back.

So sorry I haven't come up with any suggestions but at least I've told you what not to buy, and now I'm going to stay right here see what other people suggest Xmas Grin

This maybe?

thanks all, I know what you mean Shady about matronly, I'm 35 although feel (and look I think!) a bit younger and don't want to look frumpy. I need a Holly Willoughby type of look (and her height, boobs and face obviously)!
