Right folks, I'm panicking! I have a week to buy my Xmas party frock and my eyes are hurting from looking at dresses! I can't find anything that matches my criteria and was wondering if y'all could help... if somebody comes up with the perfect dress, they'll get a special Xmas pressing from me...

K,it must not be that stretch jersey material that clings to every lump and bump, it has to have sleeves (long or three quarter), it must be shortish(not slutty short), I'd like maybe a cowl back or something else nice...

right go!

Lee.

If that top one had longer sleeves, I'd like it..

The second one is for people with no hips... ie not me. :D

Lol.. I'm not easily pleased when it comes to dresses!

:bawling:

I like the one Ammi put up with the glitzy neck and floaty sleeves...... pair of opaque nicely patterned tights - perhaps ones with a 'diamonte' seam up the back would set that off quite nicely....... so you look sexy, but comfy, not clingly and legs nice n warm.

You know what's going to happen don't you. You'll get the ''ach that will do'' dress: then the day before, you'll spot exactly what you want, it will be out of stock / not avail in size / cannot be delivered in time.

Sod's Law !! Kinda like when you have something for years, eventually brave it and chuck it out, and the day the bin lorry has been - you remember you now have a very need for that same thing!

:D

Make a dress out of tinsel....... tee hee.....

I know Pyr... that's exactly the kind of thing that happens to me! :mad:

Also, I spend ages looking for the perfect dress and after a few vinos, I find I don't really give a toss what I'm wearing!

Listen...if the arms on dresses are being a problem, what about thinking of a dress that you could get a little bolero style jacket/sparkly cardi to cover with....??

Be a shame if you saw a dress that you liked and it was only bare arms that were putting you off..

Isn't it a bit short? I thought you didn't want anything too 'mini' in length?

When is the 'do'?
