help dress me for my 50th!

[sydenhamhiller]

I am hoping this lovely board will help me out...

I've organised my 50th for the beginning of September. Pretty low key, drinks and nibbles and DJ in a vintagey-shabby chic cafe we have booked for the evening.

I had planned to wear this dress I bought for son'r graduation in July, but now think it might be a bit garden party/ afternoon-ish? I should prpbably go more cocktail party?

This is ridiculous, but just can't get inspired. I am not particularly heavier than usual, but menopause has changed my shape! I am 5'8", 66 kilos, (10 stone?), and 32DD. Used to be slim, now have menopause tummy and by boobs just feel massive. I feel matronly.

I've looked on line, but everyone is 22 and a size 8: what to wear and wear to buy it if you have boobs and a tum?

Thanks for any tips!

Have a look at Hope and Ivy. Their wrap dresses are very flattering

I love that jigsaw dress!

That dress would be fine

Love that dress!

Aw, thanks all x

I like the Jigsaw dress but if you want something a bit more evening I’ve seen a few dresses at Massimo Dutti I’ve liked the look off. I think they’re chic. ( with the caveat that the pink might be too revealing 😂)
