Invited to party I’m so confused

[Mmmmmmmchips]

I like to think I’m quite trendy however I’m more a casual kind of gal - boots, trainers occasionally that kind of thing

We’ve been invited to my Hs bosses 50th party at a golf club.

I’ve had a few years of ill health and I’ve really lost my confidence.

Can anyone give me pointers please- I’m so stuck - I’m 33, size 8-10

Do I go down the evening wear route or party wear?

Thanks

I think it's probably a case of the old smart jeans and a snazzy top, isn't it? You could wear a dress, but nothing as formal as "eveningwear", and I wouldn't buy one if you don't have one already.

Golf club may have funny rules e.g. no jeans. Daft but worth checking.

True; I hadn't thought of that. I'd still be thinking more along the lines of "drinks at a posh club" than "wedding guest" though.

NeverTalksToStrangers - that's really lovely, good spot.

Something like this with a jacket or a shrug?

Ok so more party wear but not clubbing??

Sorry to question but is that not more wedding guest attire

I’m very confused

It is a formal choice, I think the colour would suit your age as it's fresh. But it might be too formal.

This is more party wear. I like the structure of the sleeves. Dusty rose or gold accents usually looks good with navy.

My style is quite formal and I live in dresses.

In my experience a Golf Club party means a dress and heels.

Jeans and a nice top wouldn’t cut it I’m afraid.

The blue dress Raven linked to looks about right to me.

It’s a LBD occasion.

I’d take it as a fairly formal special occasion with people that you want to show respect to, so would wear an elegant but not overly sexy dress. If it were me, I’d wear a dress I’ve got that’s silk, knee length, bold patterns in brown / cream / black. I haul it out for anything where I want to look like I’ve made an effort. Better to be slightly too smart with confidence than underdressed.

Would a black jumpsuit work

With heels

I’m 33, size 8-10

You're so young, and so thin! Whatever you choose - enjoy. At your age and your size, you're going to look great in anything. For a golf club, I would think any sort of nice dress would be appropriate.

Yes, I think a jumpsuit and heels would be spot on.

If I can tomorrow I will try uploading a few pics

Jumpsuit and heels sounds great.

I personally wouldn't wear any of the linked dresses so far - they are too formal/smart/structured for my style.

This is cool (and cheap!) and more what I'd wear:

Yes, something little black dress-ish, with great shoes

Go for a nice dress! I wouldn't wear jeans to a Golf Club party. Try Zoe Vine - gorgeous stuff! www.zoevine.com

Hi Riverisland have got some jumpsuits, quite a few in the sale my dd got a couple last week, look really nice with heels & an evening clutch type of bag she is the same age as you.

You are young and tiny so I'd go with something much younger in style and more fitted but still demure and elegant....maybe something like this

Definitely no jeans at a golf club. Since it's a work invite for your DH I'd go for a posher version of a work dress. So, not too much flesh exposed and no pastels and careful with pattern. I'd want to still look like a professional rather than a wedding guest.

I agree with CountFosco! ^^
