Dress recommendations please!

[KaySamuels]

I am feeling glum today - all my clothes are naff, and I have no money (was even toying with idea of ordering whole wardrobe from catalogue and paying pence a week!

I have a couple of nice pairs of jeans and a pair of black cords, which will see me through winter, so was thinking of dresses for an instant outfit that looks like I have made an effort!

I am a size 16, 5ft6, 34E (well supported) , big bum and hips. Pear shape basically but I have a waist. Find Aline and v necks usually the way to go.

So please help me find some nice dresses that won't break the bank that will smarten me up - I looked like a right slattern on the school run this morning!

Bit plain, but easily glammed up with a good necklace. The classic wrap dress.
Satin belt may be too much for daytime, but could replace with a different belt?
(that last link was the petite version, here's the other one).
Another wrap one,
Not sure about this one - satin collar.

wow jackie - i have just bought my new wardrobe for winter - fab thanks!

.

Wow thanks JN! Was really praying no one put up a dress I loved and could't afford!

I think I will do an order of those and try em on at home! I agree that belt is a bit much , will decide on collar dress when I see it for real as it's hard to tell from pics I think.

Wra dresses are nice, think they might be way to go.

Yes - you never really know till you've tried things on. ALso the satin belt one might be useful, because you have 2 dresses in one - if you can find another more daytimey belt to wear with it. Good luck.

(by the way - I only got as far as page 4 of 10 of the dresses there, so here are the rest - you might find more you fancy)

you are s right with the first one jackie - waht a fab colour - can be dressed up or donw

i like the satin belt = ok looks dressy with heels but with boots and chunky cardi could look dressed down

well done JO

ooopps meant JNO

Your a super star thank you soo much. Am placing a huge order! Makes mental note to play it down or hide it when it arrives and dp sees!

kay thats when you start with the 'what this old thing?' line! 'had it ages...'
