I recently lost five stone, over the moon and looking forward to a Christmas Lunch with friends at the beginning of December.

Got this on Vinted, BNWOT £12, it fits and I love it.

It’s been years since I’ve worn anything dressy, please help me with shoes, bag, jewellery!

Ive not worn heals for years, so nothing too high.

I am 62, my hair is grey and curly, I have pink bits in it (I had extensive chemo last year, it came back grey and curly, couldn’t colour for 3 months, so I put some pink “highlights”) here and there.

TIA

That’s lovely OP! I’d go for some gold earrings and matching bangles/bracelet. Doesn’t have to be anything fancy. H&M & Primark both do great jewellery

I agree with Butternut, some gold accent jewellery would look lovely with this.

Congrats on the weight loss. I too was thinking earrings and a chunky bracelet. With that neckline, I wouldn't want a necklace also. Can you wear low wedges or would you prefer flats? Ankle boots might work too.

Its 90% polyester so do check the view from behind. I find polyester can be clinging and unforgiving so check for VPL and in my case, you'd see cellulite, because there is no lining in those trousers.
