Wedding in a week, but NOTHING to wear

9 replies

I need your help mumsnetters.

I've a wedding in a week and despite having tried on about 30 million dresses, I don't feel good in any of them. Have you seen anything nice online lately? I'll need to order online and have delivered to ROI.

I'm a sporty size 8, with absolutely no chest. I don't really have more than 100 quid to spend and would really prefer something I could wear again to pub/restaurant, no nothing really over the top like Coast etc.

Any amazing ideas for me please!!! I'll be going naked at this rate.

Edited to add, I'm 35 and conscious of the 'mutton dressed as lamb' thing too ... :(

How about a midi skirt, I love these:

There's loads of patterns and I think you could wear quite a casual Bardot/strappy top with them and maybe contrasting heels/bag.

What's your colouring?

A bit over budget but very wearable and free delivery/returns to Ireland.

Jumpsuit

I'm fairly pale, brown shoulder length brown hair, blue eyes. I'll put on a bit of tan but never go that dark :)

I love that skirt! I really like that jumpsuit too actually. Funnily enough I was looking at this one earlier

Oh nice. That's worth trying on. You might find it cheaper on the house of fraser website because you'll pay sterling.

Its about 10 euros cheaper.
