Help me find a dress!

Going to a wedding in a few weeks time. I'm on the hunt for a dress - nothing clingy as I'm a little conscious about my thighs bum and tummy! I like floaty dresses especially with nice flutter sleeves. Can anyone recommend any good sites?

What size are you? Colour preference? Budget? JL have quite a lot in the sale at the moment

Size 12-14. I quite like patterns, block colour is a little boring on me. Not got a huge budget, ideally under £50 but i realise that limits my options! I found some lovely bits on ASOS but nothing in my size 🤦🏻‍♀️

This is nice but possibly too cream for a wedding www.johnlewis.com/phase-eight-caylana-dress-cream/p3523151

Oooh the red oasis one is lovely, I like a pleated skirt, it's very flattering. It's not a super posh wedding but I'd still like to look nice. I've seen a few layered ones with dipped hens that I really love on ASOS but again, nothing in my size.

Has anyone used Yoins? Some lovely dresses on there with good reviews and so cheap! But the delivery time seems to be quite long
