Help me find THE dress for my 30th!!!!

[DaBombDiggitty]

Ok so i am having a do for my bday and it is a black tie/ cocktail dress event! I am having so much trouble finding a dress - where should I be looking? I dont usually do dresses! I am a 16 on top (not due to big boobs unfortunatley!!) and a 14 on the bottom, a bit of a belly and i am a dark blonde! so can anyone help me find the dress? thanks!!!!

I love Monsoon dresses and if you get there quick they have a lot of the Christmas party dresses with 70% off.

Fairly good legs!!!! Tho i dont want it to short as i will be wearing my spanx to suck it all in and they come down to mid thigh!!! Any colour but nothing to pale budget wise around £150 including shoes!!!

I have some lovely silver strappy killer heels!!!

Thank you littlelapin I love the style - think it would be very flattering for me!! not sure of the colour though!!!!

LOve the black one!!!

Loving coast and they have a store fairly local to me - will have to venture in and try some on - thank you for your help LL!!!

Monsoon 75% sale have some amazing evening dresses reduced from stupidly high to stupidly low. I almost bought one yesterday just because they were cheap and gorgeous!

As others have said, Debenhams, Accessorise and others have 70% off - you are bound to find a bargain, if you just pop to your nearest town. I bought a lovely dress from debenhams, the other day.

i meant 70% not 75%, that would be too good!

what about something like this

where is your thinnest bit? waist? below bust? what do you want to do re shoes?

i am that size too, when is your birthday? mine is next week perhaps we are twins (well if i was nearly a decade premature!)
