Short, skinny woman seeks outfit advice

Help! Have never (dared) venture onto this topic before but need some help in finding something (other than jeans) to wear to an event soon. It's a bit of an arty do - so don't need to be too dressed up, just want to look attractive.
Would like to maybe wear a dress but TBH I'm on the boney side of skinny at the moment and feel very self concious about it. I like quite bold colours - dark pinks/reds etc. and prints (but not sure they suit me).
Any advice very welcome!

Meant to include royal blue as a colour. I'm blondish with olive skin, parts of which are tanned at the moment.

How trendy do you want to be?

Do you want to be mumsy, or sexy, trendy, cutting edge, stylish?

How about something like this? with black skinny jeans and either ballet flats say, bright red or pink, or gold, or heels?

Thank you DSM, I want to be SEXY for a change - think I might be more comfortable in top and skinny jeans than a dress though.
