Can you find me something nice to wear on holiday?

We’re going away next week to Corfu when I’ll be 27 weeks pregnant and a size 18. I began getting clothes out this weekend and ended up crying as DH and DS have these lovely new summer clothes and will look fab and I’ve just got a few bits of drab clothes ‘that’ll do.’

Can any of you find me something that will make me feel nice for hanging around the beach/ by the pool and then out in the evening for dinner? I was hoping for a nice maxi dress but everything is either in dark colours, too expensive, too busy or I can’t wear a bra with it. I don’t want to spend a fortune as I won’t wear it for long but I would like it feel a bit special and get some nice holiday pics without feeling depressed.

I’m 5ft 3 but don’t like my legs so nothing too short and I do have a good waist (although obviously with a sizeable bump now!), when not pregnant I’m an hourglass shape. I’m pale with blonde hair (a light summer in colour analysis terms)

Also high necklines on a long dress don’t really look right as I’m just a round ball of fabric and matronly boobs (34H)

I've recently bought this Zara one which obviously hasn't got much of a waist but is lovely and lightweight and floaty. You can open as many buttons as you want to let the boobs get some air! Grin
