What did you wear to wow on your 40th..

[bodsmum]

and can i pinch your ideas..only thing is i'm 7 months pregnant too so not feeling uberfoxy but could jam my feet into heels for just one night..

I had a black & white party but I rocked up in a scarlet dress (still got pic on profile I think) It was one way of making sure that no one else wore the same dress as me

Dress was found for me on MN of course, so am sure someone will come along with foxy maternity idea.

Not sure of your budget, but this dress is gorgeous or this

Isabella Oliver always have beautiful dresses, if you wait until after christmas to order they may be reduced.

some nice dresses bit cheaper here

i dont like the party gal in another colour dress idea - although you look v nice.
its a bit vain

I agree forlornHope it is vain, but whatever gets you through the big 4 0 is OK with me.

i thought you looked Amazing AP and actually a nice idea to feel like the special birthday girl...i wont be wearing red as i will just look like a balloon in my condition but i once went to a wedding where a guest,who also happened to be a supermodel so didnt really need any extra eyes on her ,wore a showstopping red Dior dress..hows that for stealing the bride's thunder so sometimes it's no bad idea to fix the dresscode when you feel like it's your big day.VB...i lurve the chiffony? maxi dress..i realized i have a vintage frock in a charity shop i picked up for a steal a while back which i never got around to adjusting(as couple of sizes too big)which is a similar cut so i think i will go for that(and with such a long frock no one will notice if i wear slippersunder it!)

Thanks Bodsmum Vintage is also wonderful as no one is going to be wearing the same.

to upstaging the bride though.

Have a lovely birthday!

That sounds perfect, I love vintage.

Enjoy your birthday

lol at making everybody else where black and white! you're like sherie hewson on come dine with me! she made her 3 guests were felt xmas themed outfits, and she wore a tight red fitted dress with a white stole...
