Hi all

In 2 weeks I will be going to my partners Christmas do, think private members club in London very high end.

I have never been anywhere like it before I have an simple Hobbs dress to wear grey silk, empire line showing a little cleavage. I'm a real believer in quality basics being essential to look classy.

It's been a while since I wore the dress and I have put on a bit of weight, I will try to loose some weight but I'm a realist and miracles don't happen so I'm looking for some quality underwear to keep things tidy! I'm a curvy size 14 with DD boobs. I have tried various shape wear in the past but not too happy with any here's my wish list does anyone have any recommendations - not padded, suitable for a lowish top, fastening underneath and relatively comfortable... am I asking too much?

Next makeup, although I am 50 I am told I am relatively young looking but I struggle with eye makeup my eyelids are starting to look wrinkly and putting eye shadow on just exaggerates it any suggestions?

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this all suggrstions gratefully received.

The Charlotte Tilbury make up seems to look great on any age, I’d suggest popping to your local counter and having a chat with one of the make up artists there for some advice.
Shapewear, I’ve always just gone with m and s.

Have a look at M&S wear your own bra full slips. I own several in nude and find them very comfy and they don't roll up on themselves. Go with your true size, don't size down.
