Ok so thought i was organised i have a french connection bex dress that i've only worn once so just thought i would wear that to dds school ball this weekend however when i got it out it has an oil mark on it, no problem i thought, just got it back from the cleaners and they haven't been able to get it out.

Last year my dress bought online didn't arrive, i don't have much luck. I have to work tomorrow but have about an hour and a half in which to grab something. Any suggestions? I have about £180 but may need to include shoes in the budget depending on the dress. I'm a size 12 mainly due to dd boobs, size 10 on bottom so best features my legs, i'm only 5'1 but open to wearing very high heels. All help appreciated.

Where is the oil mark? I have been known to deploy corsage/ glittery brooch technique in this case, to great success.

someone at work suggested the very same thing, like phoebe in friends . The dress has beading all around the neck so there is no way i could i'd look like a christmas tree.

The other annoying thing is that it hides a multitude so ihave been happily stuffing my face full of cake all week thinking it didn't matter now i feel as fat as a fool not exactly the best frame of mind for shopping.
