Going to France with dh and some friends for his 50th birthday v soon and will have a celebratory dinner one evening. I used to have a lovely Jigsaw black chiffon dress with a wrap over top, deep v neck and swirly skirt for all such events, but somehow have lost it (how is that possible?) and need an urgent replacement. Any ideas? 44, 5'8", 12-14, quite in an out sort of shape, olive skin.
Also accessories?? I am frightened of accessories. I have some lovely red sandals and some pretty gold ones with a high heel.
I look terrible in everything from Phase 8.

helloooo! Sorry was eating salmon and watching Waking the Dead - sorry, seems awfully impolite while you are all doing such Sterling Work.
Malory, the first dress you linked too is absolutely the shape of my lost Jigsaw dress (was silk chiffon too - sob!), but the coast dresses are lovely and I've ordered the M&S necklace in fit of bravery.
Barry's Spirit dress is lovely, all dresses are lovely, but some I think a bit short, as I do not have Cod's willowy fins - think more Kirsty Allsop or that woman who presents Place in the Sun - this sort of shapewww.leninimports.com/amanda_lamb_gallery_1.jpg
I am v inspired though and need urgent visit to Coast. It is undoubtedly The Place.
Also....Cod....even though legs not best feature....would be v grateful to try your dress, if you don't mind.
Is a chateau quite near Dieppe, friends staying in the house, v posh woman owner cooking, so not super formal, but have asked people to dress up a bit.

Thank you all! mwah! mwah!
