Could someone please help me find an outfit for a wedding in a couple of weeks? I usually wear jeans, and don't like dressing up, but would really like to make an effort for this occasion.
I'm 5' 8", probably a 14 on top and 12 for trousers. I have broad shoulders, small boobs and no waistline. I will probably need dress, wrap, shoes, maybe bag. Shoes are always a bit of a problem. I'm middle-aged, so nothing too short please.
Budget - don't really know. I begrudge spending too much on something which will only be worn once.
Any suggestions please?

Sorry that was a bit brusque. Every one was competing for my attention while I was trying to post!
I got a chiffon bolero from Romans. I'll post a photo in a couple of days.

Thank you both! I'm such an idiot for leaving it so late! I thought I was so organised getting the jump suit early. There's a Romans near me, so I'll go there this afternoon, if I can't find anything I'll go to Debenhams next week. I don't want to risk online shopping as it's less than a week to the wedding now. I'll update later.

I'm such an idiot. I just went to order the lace shrug and it's out of stock in black. What about this one?

Please help me @justaweeone & @ @Cao77!

the smaller wallis dress arrived today - I love it - no idea when I'm going to wear it - maybe I'll put it on for the school run later!
