I am a 46 year mum of two, 5' 6 and overweight by too much! My biggest problem is my tummy!

My mum is having a birthday party and I want to wear a dress, look stylish, on a budget and wear something that makes me look and feel good!

Maybe I'm asking the impossible but if anyone wants to help, I will be eternally grateful! Thanks

What is your colouring? What colours suit you? What dress size are you?

friendlymum67 · 12/04/2014 19:57

Brunette, blue eyes, fair skin, l prefer stronger colours, pastels make me look washed out. Like navy blue, reds, but as this is a daytime 'summer' event, I guess nothing too dark. Dress size 16-18.

TIA

I'd get a 50s style full skirted dress from Vivienne of Holloway, Get Cutie or Tiger Milly
