Hi!
I have been invited to two weddings this summer and am looking for a dress.

The big thing is - I don't want to spend money/ buy something to wear only for
those venues, but I would like to wear it every day.

I was thinking about getting one of the beaded bags by Accessorize so it will
make it more dressy, but I can't find anything that speaks "take me"😅

I LOVE this one from a self-portrait, but it is not an everyday dress and is
pricey:

I was also thinking about this one from Aspiga:
www.aspiga.com/collections/all-dresses/products/victoria-cotton-sateen-v-neck-printed-dress-waterlily-pink-white

but not convinced by the sleeve- I have larger bust.

Also
Than I found this one but not too sure if its too basic:

Please help!

Large bust
165cm
cannot have open back or be too tight 😂

Definitely not the white one, first one you may not get much use out of after and the other one looks far too simple. I’d definitely recommend looking for new with tags on Vinted (fraction of the price as well, I bought a warehouse dress usually £65 for £11 including P+P with the labels on!) definitely recommend warehouse and Wallis dresses for bigger busts as well :)

@Medinburgh , the quality at Boden has gone downhill. Their dresses are sold in TK Maxx near me now.
Their older stuff was great.
