Please help me find a dress! I'm a size 12, 5ft 6, smallish waist, 34d. I have dark eyes and dark hair. I'm not so keen on my thighs so nothing too short! Apart from that I'm pretty easy going

That is lovely, maybe something a bit dressier?

I keep picking blues for you - is that a colour you like?

LetThemEatCake · 26/03/2009 20:55

this is really simple but surprisingly fabulous on (I have similar colouring to you)

Also in black if you prefer

this quite fab, not sure if maybe you'd need to be boyish of chest though??

available in two lengths

she looks as though she'd look a bit like you so this would prob suit you well

love this, looks pricier than it is, one-shoulder is very 'now' too

am I warm?? cold? should I go away and do the work that I'm supposed to be doing?

LetThemEatCake · 26/03/2009 21:04

when you say 'on the town' - what do you mean? bar? club restaurant?

Amandoh · 26/03/2009 21:04
