Can I have your opinion please about my outfit for this Saturday?

[Fruitysunshine]

Hi

I have my husband's surprise 40th this weekend which is a black tie James Bond do and have really struggled to find a glamorous evening outfit. Think I have settled on this today - although cutting it fine, what do you think of it all?

Dress with shoes

I am going to wear some sparkly jewellery and have not yet decided between silver or black handbag....edging towards black with some kind of sparkle...

Gorgeous DRESS, I'd try for comfier shoes but I'm a tomboy...

cant see dress

sorry not keen on dress or the shoes

Unless you are strikingly slim that dress could look a bit frumpy and wide IMO...

What about this dress? Very Bond...

really like both

That last dress is only avialable in a size 18.

I think your choice of dress, Fruity is fabulous, stick with it.

The shoes look nice...just don't have too many Martinis, or you will fall over and do yourself an injury!

I'm not keen on either the dress (too frumpy) or the shoes (too frilly) tbh. Sorry!

Just saying the dress is too frumpy, is not allowed, unless you offer an alternative.

The dress, IMO, is very classic James Bond.

like the dress - quite classic bond. shoes are but chunky and mumsy. sorry - often find next a bit watered down and safe

I prefer these shoes

Love the dress - very Narciso Rodriguez and classy.

Hhhmmm...interesting thoughts - thank you. Don't want anything knee length as my legs are naff and I do prefer the glamour of full length. Liked the shoes because of the black stud bits on the bow which represent my secret rebellious side!

I have tried the dress on and a couple of people have said it was very flattering and gave me a good shape (having a few lumps and bumps!) It also has a built in bra thingy so it gives me a good "lift" hehe!

I tried the shoes on today and they are very comfortable. I need a bit of height as I am only 5'4 and they do that as well as make me comfortable.

I am a rock chick at heart and not a pink/frilly person so my choices do seem a bit strange but I have a feeling it ticks a few boxes - I need the opinions as I don't dress like this every day

Lynette - they did not have that style at the branch I was in today - they are lovely!

Let's be honest...no one is really going to notice your shoes!

No, everyone should be watching the total look of surprise on DH's face!

I like the dress-would maybe go for different shoes though.
I don't like slingbacks though-a bit Rotarty Club dinnner dance.

I like the dress but not the shoes, though I find any sling back very uncomfy.

what is a Rotarty club dinner dance?

Gorgeous dress, would probably change the shoes though

my mate had those shoes in a diff colour for a wedding
they're much nicer "in the flesh" and she comfortably wore them all day
