Crikey - you’re all going to look incredible!! I feel I’ve made a very frumpy choice by comparison. This paired with silver heels, bag and possibly leather jacket.

Not at all frumpy it's lovely!

Oh my GOD this is incredible. Might start saving now to buy it to wear for my 40th in 4 years time 😂

Vampires wife dresses are often available to rent! It's gorgeous IRL, though. (I'm a shopping enabler) save save save!

I don’t like anything glitzy, sequinned, glittery or Christmassy so I will be wearing this!

@grayhairdontcare I got that in the green but I’m not sure about it. Need to try it on again with different shoes before it’s too late.

grayhairdontcare · 24/11/2023 22:03

@Gowlbag what foot wear you going for?
I wanted the dress in green but was unavailable in my size.
So I went with black with these boots

It's shoes I need help with! I've got a black sequin wrap dress to wear but I'm nearly 6' and don't need heels but I want to wear pretty shoes and I think this outfit goes well with sandals! Help!

AliasGrape · 24/11/2023 22:28

I’ve got the black one already and have worn it quite a few times before but I do love it and it really suits my shape.

I’ve ordered the berry one, though I don’t think it’s going to feel special enough for Christmas party - I’ll see what it’s like when it arrives.

I’ve spotted this one which I keep coming back to, but finding it hard to justify buying something else https://www.ever-pretty.co.uk/products/striped-velvet-flutter-sleeves-v-neck-midi-wedding-guest-dress-eg01939?currency=GBP&variant=44778997055675&utm_medium=cpc&utm_source=google&utm_campaign=Google%20Shopping&stkn=62b9577fe44d&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiAsIGrBhAAEiwAEzMlC9XhMO7d1OhYH1TRFTlquq2kJFmYkkJPf_IcBLJ6bl4muaQmrQXJnRoCUEkQAvD_BwE

@grayhairdontcare I was hoping to get these from Next but there was a bit of dithering over whether the party was going ahead so I hesitated and now they’re out of stock. I haven’t found anything else I like at a reasonable price.
My ankles are way too fat for those lovely boots! They will look great with the black dress.

I haven't been out in forever so I'm a little bit excited to get the sparkles on x

Also love vampires wife dresses...but i love nick cave and Susie anyway 😂. I cant warrant spending that much to wear it probably once year tho

startwig1982 · 25/11/2023 00:24

I have this from h&m. So out of my comfort zone as I don't normally do short or sequins but my OH said it was very cute and he's all that matters.
