Help! Rare night out soon and need a dress that won't make me look and feel like a frumpy mum!

I'm on a night out with some of the guys from work in a couple of weeks time. I don't usually have the cash to go with them (city's just far too expensive for me) but I've caught back up financially after Christmas and I actually have some spare pennies for a change. I'd like to treat and remind myself that I am only 26 by going Grin

I'm a size 12-14 with a god awful jiggly mummy tum Sad I've got lots of sucky in pants that can smooth over the jiggly parts, but I need to find a dress that won't advertise just how disgusting my stomach is. Best features would be my legs and I can always give my boobs a gravity defying boost if I have to, to draw attention up. I'm not really a fan of sleeveless dresses but all the short sleeved ones I've looked at are hideous.

I want to feel young, pretty and confident. I don't want to spend the night thinking, "I feel fat and look ridiculous."

Please help!

That tunic dress is beautiful !!!!

I love the ASOS black top. Do you think you can wear a black vest underneath?

Ihatemytoes · 03/02/2014 21:55

I've just bought this www.warehouse.co.uk/lace-sleeve-shift-dress/dresses/warehouse/fcp-product/6213108977

very I would, cant be showing off that much flesh!!! A delicate vest top/chemise. Thin straps.

verytellytubby · 04/02/2014 18:32

Cock I've ordered it. Got some lovely tight waxed black skinny jeans to wear with it and heels. Was definitely thinking black camisole.

I've wanted a black top like that for ages.

EirikurNoromaour- can you tell me where that green and black dress is from please?

Jomole · 04/02/2014 22:04

I have just bought this dress for a party on sat. Fabric is lovely though maybe longer than what you were looking for.

EirikurNoromaour · 05/02/2014 06:20

Nobody - it's from the link I posted a few posts before it. It's a voodoo vixen dress so you can get it from lots of suppliers but I posted a link to tiger milly who sell it.
