What would you wear to feel good at this event?

[Peppermintpatty56]

Tomorrow I’m attending drinks in a city bar with my husband and a few women he works with. I’ve known some of them a while as I used to work there too, but since I’ve been really poorly and thanks to the treatment I’ve had I have lost my hair (I have fabulous wigs I love though) and I’ve put a lot of weight on, especially on my face thanks to steroids. So I look really different and am a bit self conscious.

I want to feel nice. I love fashion and like to wear on trend stuff. What kind of stuff would you wear in this situation? Dressy or casual? Bit of both? Trainers?

I'm early 40’s, plus size, 5ft 5. Can’t wear heals of any description due to mobility issues.

Thanks in advance 😊

Some chunky, white trainers would be fine …maybe a pretty, long, floaty dress with a leather or denim jacket…?

Thank you 😊
I’m debating whether to go dress or trousers/jeans.

I bought this dress -

but the bust is quite tight and I’m struggling to find a bra that doesn’t massively show.

I also have barrel leg black trousers that are super comfy. Also some barrel leg jeans. maye one of these with a tee and a blazer? Then I’ve either got flat pointy red sling backs or trainers- I’ve got black leather platform converse.

Do you have anything a bit elevated to wear with the jeans ? For example I have a cream silk shirt or a black silk t shirt that I wear with wide leg jeans and a blazer. Otherwise I’d go for the jeans, t shirt, blazer and pointed flats. If you check out the social media of Amy Smilovic ( of fashion brand Tibi) she wears that kind of look. I think she’d add a contrasting sculptural earring and a slouchy bag. Hope you have a great night

Put on some red socks with the sling backs…. That’s a very fashiony look. 😀

I do have a white shirt that could work. And also a really nice white blazer as I’ve just looked and it’s going to be 16 degrees with sun 😂 practically boiling by recent weather standards. Might even wear sunglasses and go all out 😎

I don’t think I could pull the socks and sling backs look off. I admire it on other people though. I’ve just been looking at Amy Smilovic- she could definitely pull it off!
