You're too early. All the xmas party stuff will be coming in the next couple of weeks once the current mid (or quarter or weekly, are we ever out of sale) season sales are over.

Ok I'll keep an eye out - I did find two lovely dresses in FCUK though

There's a sequin tube skirt just come in at Warehouse for £39. Looks good (and comfy)

I've been looking , I order some lipsy and specifically Jessica Wright dresses from next and they are very flattering if you are hourglass ( or maybe if not but I am ) nice thick material .. im guessing Debenhams will have loads in soon .

LOVE the Jessica Wright dresses jessie What are they like for sizing? I usually take an 8 in Next but I know they're big fitting!

imjessie · 16/10/2016 14:13

I'd say they are about right . I got 10/12/14 because I wasn't sure and the 12 is about bang on .. I would say I'm a 12 at the mo .. they are made for hour glasses though so I think they are shaped like that which is perfect for me . Thy are long though ! I'm going to need to get it shortened .

imjessie · 16/10/2016 14:14

I would say they are more lipsy sizes than next so smaller rather than bigger as they are just sold via next not made for them as such .

I've seen the most perfect black velvet slip dress in m&s (of all places) that I'll be purchasing and wearing to pretty much everything. May buy a sparkly clutch or reuse last year's

imjessie · 17/10/2016 18:48

Can you link to it rose ?

Place marking as am also thinking about Christmas party wear - I struggle every year! I have a blue sparkly tube skirt I'd like to wear but for some reason I can never find a top to go with it. Might try the h&m v neck silk one that's been mentioned in another thread..

I saw a sparkly dress in warehouse the other day that looks worth trying on at least www.warehouse.co.uk/gb/clothing/dresses/sparkle-split-neck-dress/027424.html?dwvar_027424_color=50&position=8&cgid=dresses

Next have a couple of dresses in but nothing that makes me want to buy. I have several nights out this year with the same work colleagues so can't get away with the same outfit - annoying.

Vintagegirl1 · 18/10/2016 12:51
