Help me find my Boden outfit!

I'm very chuffed to be going to the MN party but now having complete style palpations and need some help. Have never worn Boden before. The prize is dress or equivalent, but it is unclear what 'equivalent' means. I need some options. My details

Age: 28
Size and shape: generous size 12, pear shaped, smaller up top, smallish waist, though complicated by being 10 weeks pg with no.2 two and stating to become rotund around the tummy
Height: 5'2"
Colouring: mid brown eyes and hair, fair but yellow toned skin
Preferences: well if I am going to have an expensive outfit I want to be able to get some wear out of it so should accommodate a burgeoning tummy. I don't iron so no linen, else I will wear it once and it will sit in my laundry basket till the end of time.

If any of the other winners are around can they tell me what they have picked, I don't want to wear the same thing!

Please help

lol @'jeans and sacks' Did you see the Merino Tunics? Might look nice in your best colour with your fav posh jeans?

That one you linked to is nice, Ruby. I like the sound of 'a sprinkling of beads' - sounds partyish.

That tunic is lovely. Wish I had seen it earlier.

CaptainNancy · 25/02/2010 23:55

I think this one in the brown or purple is lovely!

My dress came today, is actually really nice. Too big though (not impressed with the measurements on the site) but might stick a few stitches in the waist band to slim it down a touch.

Did it come, Ruby?

Glad everyone's happy with theirs so far! Mine is nice - really nice - it's not something I would have usually chosen, but that's all to the good, like ordering something new in a restaurant when soemone else is paying, instead of sticking to steak and chips.

SuSylvester - of course I will be there...although I will leave my smug face at home.
