Christening outfit for a fat bird - two weeks time

8 replies

TheMadHouse · 18/04/2008 10:07

Right I am a size 22 top large boobs, apple shaped (2 c-sections) and 18-20 on the bottom.

Short - 5 foot and have two little boys.

Brunette, hazel eyes and can not do heels

I need an outfit for a celebratory christening (My great newphew who was lucky to survive his birth)

We are oop north, so cold and windy.

Oh and inexpensive and reusable.

Oh and we will also be seeing most of them on the Friday night at a joint 70th Birthday/25th wedding party

No idea - I have perfected the art of 'bag lady chic' but I hope you have a lovely time

Apologies can't do links

I had a look on the dresscode and some of their clothes are lovely, maybe you could get one pair of trousers and and evening top and a more day time top or jacket for the christening?

I am a 10/12 with no boobs and dresses always look awful on me as they just hang however I think they look great if you have boobs

I am short and curvy too so I am feeling your pain!

I think that this would be very flattering and work for the Christening and the party.

It would work with this jersey skirt www.mandco.com/bin/venda?ex=co_wizr-productgrid&bsref=mackays&step=shopcartmulti&invt=1612891&orderc ol=alphanu and knee-length stretchy boots.

This bag would look great with the outfit:

Don't focus too much on the outfit - you have gorgoeus colouring by the sound of things so spend extra time on hair and makeup to enhance that.

Hmm Like the skirt, normally wear trousers, but not keen on the top. Never thought to look at McKays.

For the party I am wearling Jeans, bright green ballets and a bright green t-shit syle top

I like this outfit a lot. Would look great for Christening with black trousers.

Jacket no good, it stops on my tummy and would look like a sack over my breats
