So I ordered 2 new dresses for my work Christmas party both arrived this morning.

If I chose the pink one I would have to get some of those short style spanks as I am aware you can see my knicker style spanks chopping my thighs off!

Please excuse my slatten like mirror Blush

Black, you look stunning in it, to be honest not loving the pink it’s not flattering, even with the right lingerie on under it.

pompomcat · 24/11/2018 11:55

I'd say the black one OP-very nice indeed. Can I also say that I think your hair looks fab Smile

ReturnofSaturn · 24/11/2018 11:55

Black. Without a doubt.

JennyHolzersGhost · 24/11/2018 12:00

It partly depends what kind of job you do, I think. But generally I’d say the black one is more appropriate for a professional event.

Thanks for the unexpected hair compliments, I am surprised but grateful 😂 I considered a half shave last year but decided against it. I just use this name for anything with photos.

You’re very beautiful OP. Love both dresses

adoggymama · 24/11/2018 12:40

Black one, also, your eyebrows are lovely! X

mumsiedarlingrevolta · 24/11/2018 12:42

I prefer the black one but both are pretty.

As it is a work event I would def wear the black but the pink would be nice for a night out with friends/NYE.

HettieBettie · 24/11/2018 12:44

Your legs are amazing! Black one - the pink is unflattering x

DonaldDucksTowel · 24/11/2018 12:50

I’m with Immigrantsong you’re gorgeous but neither of these dresses are working for you at all

Charley50 · 24/11/2018 13:00

Oh I didn't see the back of the black one before... it looks to big from behind, or is it just as you're reaching up? It's gorgeous from the front..

Don't like the pink one at all.. I think you'll be adjusting it all evening and it will be really annoying.

I agree that you're stunning!

costacoffeecup · 24/11/2018 13:13

Thanks 😬

Ellapaella · 24/11/2018 13:33

Both are lovely but I like the pink best on you - it really flatters your skin tone. You look lovely.

Highlove · 24/11/2018 13:39

Another one voting with immigrantsong. You are gorgeous OP and have a fab figure, but neither of those dresses is working for you. The pink isn’t flattering and the black one just doesn’t fit. Maybe the black in a smaller size? Enjoy your party!

ScarlettDarling · 24/11/2018 13:39

You look lovely in both. I'd go for the pink one but probably in the next size up, it's just a bit too clingy imo. Have a great night!

Bigonesmallone3 · 24/11/2018 13:41

Black, the pink isn't flattering

EdWinchester · 24/11/2018 13:46

Pink is too clingy and very unflattering.

Black is the better of the 2.

PersisFord · 24/11/2018 13:46

I also vote you try something a bit different (neither are perfect) but you should definitely go for something short, your legs are just amazing! I think you have lovely shoulders as well so I would not be wearing a sleeve or anything like that, time enough for that when you have bingo wings (like me!)

MarshaBradyo · 24/11/2018 13:47

Black for sure
The pink looks a bit too tight

beanaseireann · 24/11/2018 13:54

Pink looks too tight.
Go up a size

KatKit16 · 24/11/2018 14:01

The black one looks stunning. I love the shoes too x

desperatehousewife2 · 24/11/2018 14:07

Black, absolutely definitely. It’s gorgeous and a lot more flattering than the pink

Bombardier25966 · 24/11/2018 14:08

The oink doesn't fit and gives you monoboob.

The black looks better from the front but too big on the back.

You've got a lovely figure, neither to you justice at all.

Bombardier25966 · 24/11/2018 14:09

Unfortunate typo there, pink not oink!
