Hi all
I have my work night out tomorrow. I've had a crap year with my health this year (perianal abcess and fistula which is still ongoing) and with how rubbish I've been feeling I havent dressed up in well over 6 months since it first started. I cant drink with the meds I'm currently on so I'm going to feel self conscious enough going out anyway when everyone will be merry so i just want to wear something that makes me look half decent for my own self confidence.
What is your opinion on this dress? I plan on dressing up with some black and gold statement earrings and a black and gold clutch. I really have lost all self confidence over the last few months (it's no fun constantly having a leaking raw arse!) so really not sure if I've got it completely wrong with this dress.
Happy to take feedback (positive and negative). Is this dress ok for a saturday night works night out?
Thank you ladies!!!

Love it! You look amazing

I love it! You look chic and elegant. I hope you feel fabulous at your party. I know what having health issues and the resulting weight gain feels like, it can have a right knock on your confidence.

Amazing! Go and enjoy yourself, you look beautiful!

You look stunning, what a figure.

So sorry about your health problems, hope it all improves hugely in 2020.

But have a blast when you go out, you are in for a lot of compliments.

You look utterly fabulous.
If I looked like that I'd be out every night letting people know about it.

I've looked at Silkfred and was a bit scared of ordering as there were some bad reviews on Trustpilot. What's the quality like OP?
