Please could someone help me find a dress! I have already ordered and sent back 4!
I am mid 40s and have a dinner/dance coming up for a reunion. I don’t particularly even want to look knock out amazing, I just don’t want to look like I haven’t changed my wardrobe for 20 years (even though I haven’t!), I honestly have no idea where to look for a posh frock these days.
I’m 5 foot 6 and a size 8-10. Dresses I’ve bought so far have been either too floral, too bridesmaidy, too frumpy, too clingy. I used to buy dresses from Ted Baker, Karen Milen, Coast, but this was 20 odd years ago, I’ve had no reason to attend a posh event for so long!
ANY help or suggestions would be massively appreciated! I am quite pale in complexion and am easily washed out, so can’t do purples, reds, oranges, blacks, these make me look washed out, equally very pale pastels don’t work for me either. I love greens and greeny blues, potentially navy. Like fairly fitted but not too frilly or fussy. Some sparkles would be good if not too over the top!!
Thanks for any help!
