Hi we're going to a 40th on Friday. It's one of my husband's colleagues and it's in a nice pub and there's a sit down meal and drinks but the invitation was word of mouth so not much more detail. I have asked DH what the dress code is and he's pretty useless at finding things like this out but said he is planning on wearing jeans and a smart open neck shirt so it sounds smart casual. I would like to wear a dress but probably not a party dress - more like a smart casual dress if DH is wearing jeans and a shirt. Has anyone seen any nice dresses in the shops recently that might fit the bill as I don't have anything suitable. Please could you lovely mumsnetters suggest some not too dressy dresses for me. I'm medium height and size 8/10. Thanks in advance!

What's your budget and which shops can you get to easily between then and now?

OohOohMrPeevly · 10/09/2018 19:49

£100 max and can get to most shops. Thanks!

Thanks very much Moutain Goat - I like all of these and have both a monsoon and an oasis near me so will try these on this week. I don't have a style as such - I just buy random things that I like and hope for the best!

Any other suggestions most welcome.
