Im size 14, pale skin, dark hair,

does anyone want to help me look for a nice frock? i quite like the one Kelly Brock is wearing in Closer this week although naturally I will look better in it.

I haven't got Closer - can you link or describe the dress?

I am currently very drawn to this although sadly I am too short and completely the wrong colouring for it.

Or this? I would need Very Large Pants.

Bit pricey. But nice, similar to Kelly's one.

have you checked out debenhams designers..not quite same but there stuff always really good and not so easy to place. I like second one as reckon you'd get wear out of it

bit of a splurge

John Lewis have personal fashion advisors you can book a free appointment with. I went with a friend who needed a mother-of-bride outfit. It was brilliant - the woman plucked out things that would look good - took all the stress out of shopping. She ended up with something she probably wouldn't have picked herself but looked fantastic.

Having said that Monsoon would be my first stop for a sumptuous frock.
