It's at a local pub, BBQ and drinks. I'm a size 20 5ft 9 and biggest around hips and tummy. I want to look and feel good, making the statement that I'm much mire together than I was when at school! I'm 36...

One last thing - do you have (or can you borrow) a largish, plainish black (or black and white) bag? Not a clutch though, unless its mahoosive!

meant to say - pricier bracelet set for with the asos double triangle earrings, i thought, maybe?

Oooh just got dress and tried on very nice! Legs look short pale and white so def needs the heels and maybe thinner tights too. Def needs the black accessories maybe chunky necklace. Will look into! Now I know I like and am keeping dress can do finishing touches! Thanks again mrs l

Oh that's grand!
If you feel your legs are looking shorter than you'd like it'd be best to avoid shoes iwth an ankle strap. Do shout if I can be of any use.
