I don't have a need for one but if I did I would be getting one of the new sequin ones from scamp and dude

CruellasBraVermin · 18/11/2023 22:51

God I've got so many functions, not bought anything new this year though so can't tag anything.

Not a dress, but I will wear this to our neighbours Christmas party. No works Christmas party this year, just a pub lunch/ Christmas jumper affair 🙁
Black leather trousers (ancient, but very good quality) if I lose a bit of weight, otherwise black straight leather look trousers from M&S.
Dark green velvet flat mules from vinted.
Dark green tie from top from New Look

I still need to get a statement bag.

I got this and I’m going to wear the hell out of it after a year of slogging at the gym!

That is amazing!

I've ordered this for my Christmas party. It's a stunning dress but I think it might be too much for our smart/casual dress code. The men will be wearing dress trousers, tie/jacket optional. Is this over the top?

NotFastButFurious · 24/11/2023 08:56

Very OTT @Janie23 ! The fabric also looks really cheap, you can see her belly button through it.

disgustingbehaviourami · 24/11/2023 08:56

@Janie23 yes! And I'm over the top kind of person lol.

It's definitely over the top - or more appropriate for a three course dinner disco type off party but if it's just a meal and a few drinks smart casual I'd choose something else.

Or - wear it proudly but accept it's ott!

Janie23 · 24/11/2023 09:36

Thanks ladies 😊 in defence of the dress, its fully lined and boned so not see through. What do you think of this?

WinkyTinky · 24/11/2023 10:12

@Bellabluea Wow! This is the best dress I've ever seen on here 😍

Elastica23 · 24/11/2023 10:44

This is mine, OP @LightsOutAndAwayWeGooooo . But to be worn with gunmetal boots and black tights. It even has pockets.

So nice.

Sunnyweatherwoman · 24/11/2023 10:50

Mine is the velvet jumpsuit from asda last year. I have the black one, I think there were other colours too.

DawnThoughts · 24/11/2023 11:19

@Janie23 you have made me giggle :)

Chocolatericecakes · 24/11/2023 12:18

This dress with these boots (The dress has more gold in it than it seems on the pic) Can't decide whether to fake tan or wear tights.

GonnaBeYoniThisChristmas · 24/11/2023 15:46

These all look great. You’ll be knockouts!

I was planning on an old black maxi skirt and glittery jumper but I might have to pull out some more stops!
