Any help would be gratefully received!

Something dressy but not completely OTT (we are just inb stands , I'm a 10-12, 5"1, good boobs, bit of a mumy tummy, short dark hair.

The main problem is the weather... we went about 7 years ago and it was warm enough for sleeveless dress and shrug, past couple of years we havent been its been tipping down. So need to kinda hedge my bets a bit... ho ho

Ta muchly

hi love

what's your budget-ish?

Dunno really, depends on what it is? If a dress then dont really want to spend ££££ if its something that will be resigned to the back of the wardrobe never to see the light of day again..

At the moment am thinking either

short dress with wrap/jacket although not really wanting to wear coat over dress as defeats the point a bit, but dont want to freeze

Maxi dress with denim jacket (will only really work if sunny - if raining will look bizarre)

Skinnies(white or dark) with dressy floral or nude top, cardi(navy), oversize bag, jewellery/sunnies..

Might have to outfit to go with all three... just incase like...

Well, you need to paint yourself orange (preferably with streaks and patches), trowel on lots of make up (definitely cheap cloggy mascara), then get all your bits unsuitably exposed in an ill fitting dress, generally predominantly cerise pink or turquoise, to fit in at Aintree these days
