If you've got boobs that dress looks as if it could potentially make them look humongous.

Where are you going? Temperature? Kinds of things you'll be doing in the evenings?

In Greece last year I wore sleeveess silk dresses, or silk skirts and cotton camisoles in the evening. It was VERY hot!

This is cute but norkage may be an issue.

could be sweet or v bad indeed!

Sorry ..I am going to Turkey..really just a meal at night time maybe few drinks etc..have 5 yr old dd so nothing too outrgaeous. You have got my style almost bang on Janeite and I love both off those.
When i say I have boobs not the big 32dd just I have a very small rib cage so I can look busty! thank you

Oh I am glad you like them. Have you found any more nice ones? Am hoping to go to Greece again and will obviously need new dresses! Unfortunately my 34Es almost certainly won't squeeze into the ones I linked to!

I think this is damn near perfect for holiday evenings.

too short on the mannequin but if you are less than 5'11'' would be great

Having said that, I bought a £12 dress in primark the other day which is also fan-bloody-tastic and would be ideal for your purposes: am wearing with flat gold sandals (also Primark, £8) have rarely had so compliments. Am tempted to photograph and upload. But in any case, Primark definitely work a look if you;ve had a stiff drink first.
