ordered coral dress ordered, hot pink has arrived

[AMcoffeeLover]

Not an order mistake, apparent colour variation.
What accessories!?
Its mid thigh, strapless, skater style block colour....think hot, Barbie pink.
Its for a graduation in September.
In my 20s, 5ft 2 with blond hair (want to avoid looking like Barbie!) . not a fan of wedges.
Trying to think through options before I go through the hassle of sending it back and looking again.

Ooohhhhh I like that dress!
Its a day thing, not a ball.
I'm not after out-and-out sexy but neither do I want dull/boring (no offence to anyone). I've got a strong, bright style and although I'm happy to tone it down, I refuse to loose it (and DP would hate me to change)

Have you had a look on e-bay ? Or vinted ? You might pick up a bargain there ?

This is well within budget? www.amazon.co.uk/Womens-Vintage-Sleeveless-Butterfly-Chiffon/dp/B00LTL1XHS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1434306733&sr=8-1&keywords=DAY+DRESS

Wow that is nice! Id just worry about the material being too thin and in the cream you'd be able to see everything I would have on underneath....

Could I wear a full or top half body stocking/ lace onesie type thing under the hot pink strap less dress? Or too trashy?

ASOS 3 different colours £25

Wow indigo and mint both look good! Seriously considering the indigo....

But the V neck is quite low.....my 30DD/E chest might be too on show. although the current dress is strapless its is quite high at the front.
Might look still look ok if I wear a flattening bra....

Looks good but sold out, thanks though

Tricky budget, I'd be scouring the outlet section on asos or sale rack at h&m tablet.hm.com/gb/products/sale/ladies/dresses_jumpsuits?page=1

Any thoughts in my idea of a lace body suit under the strapless dress? I'm either a matching pink, black or steel grey

Not sure if the body suit will look right somehow, what about a short fitted cardi? Pashmina?

Thought of a pashmina but won't be too little?

Do you have a Matalan near you? I bought a beautiful dress from there for £20 recently and it would have been lovely for a graduation

I'd say no to the lace bodysuit thing under,yes it would look trashy.I wouldn't be wearing that dress with anything to a graduation though,it's very teenage clubber/part goer in my mind.

I too would be scouring the sale rails,New Look may have something too

Will look up matalan, thanks

FOR A GRADUATION
Welcome to mumsnet

Im just trying to find a way to make this dress suitable.
To be fair I didn't know the dress code and I can't help it that my tits are big and my natural hair colour is blond.
I need help from frugal shoppers, not judgements on how I naturally look .
