What shall I wear to my first date in 16 years?

I have a dinner date on Sunday 28th with a very nice man. What would you suggest I wear? We are going to a brasserie type restaurant nice but not fine dining. I normally wear skinny jeans, long cardi and flat boots and leggings and long tops.
I'm a 12 with big tits and 5'7".
Was thinking of a nice frock and long flat boots. Too boring?
Any suggestions?

It's a bit 'day at the seaside' imho. Your figure sounds great btw and a dress with boots sounds good - but not that dress methinks.

Leggings and longish top if you've got good legs. Then low-ish cut top with long, interesting necklace. Then flirt and you'll be done (says she not having been on a date in years).

Where apart from Boden or White stuff should I look? I buy a lot of Next stuff but mainly because it is convenient and I can pop in there before the school run. I want to look grown up, classy but a bit sexy too.

Not much to ask I know .

I really need a good outfit to calm my nerves otherwise I will bottle out.

This with your boots? Or is the neckline too high for norkage?

Maybe too high as well?

I would do an eBay trawl as they have lots of this sort of stuff and it's a lot cheaper. I would search under tunic, kaftan etc.
