Help dress me for a June BBQ!

Big inlaw get together in a few weeks. I haven't seen then in almost a year and gave recently lost weight, feel great etc and want to look my best! I would rather not have to buy anything as my bank balance says I should have plenty! I am small and small framed. My style is simple enough. Day to day I wear skinny jeans with trainers or ballet flats and tucked in tshirts and a simple necklace. I have plenty of maxi sundress and had a blue Me and Em one in mind that I've been keeping for it but now not sure. What would you have me wear? I will get hair cut and blow dried beforehand and make up etc will be natural with a bit of a glow (I hope!) All suggestions appreciated!
PS it's a daytime family event

Depending on weather, family BBQ says jeans or shorts to me. With t-shirt or blouse or even vest top potentially in June (but also hoodies, on other days in June Grin )

Someone posted a photo of themselves recently wearing a lovely green midi dress from next or somewhere at a family BBQ with trainers and it's something you'd look effortlessly great in

Thanks both. I should have said it's a big birthday for one of them so definitely not a hoodie day and anyway, I'd like to get a bit dressed up, even if jeans and a nice top!

How about this dress. Someone was asking about it on another thread having seen and loved it on someone wearing it

Thank you so much. I'm not really a pattern person so that one is not for me. I do have plenty of clothes I'm just looking for how to 'style' myself on the day!
