My friends' enGAYgement party is coming up (their emphasis!) and I have no idea what to wear. They're going with a rainbow theme. My first thought was to go classy, black dress, bright accessories. Then H pointed out it is in the dingy cosy function room of a bar where one of them works, and all their mates are pretty casual so a nice dress and heels might be a bit OTT, especially if the other ladies aren't also dressing up-up. The dress I thought I would wear is this but I think it actually looks far too elegant on for a casual party if nobody else is dressed up:
Also - mini announcement for OTers not on fb - I will be about 13 weeks pregnant by then. No idea if I will have a bit of a bump or not. I assume a dress will skim a bit better over any bump but the dress above looks stupid with my flats. Likelihood is I will be far too knackered to be wearing high heels the full night, since I don't do well in them anyway!
So... do I find a more casual dress that would look OK with flats? If so, what? Or skinnies (stretchy) with a flowing sort of tunic style top?
Restrictions: Have put on weight so am a heavy 14-16 at the mo and don't want anything too tight fitting, so all those tube skirts and dresses are out. I always get midi dresses as I'm so tall any other length ends up a mini on me and I don't want to flash too much leg. Am concious of lower half so always choose long line tops when possible. Needs to look fine with flat shoes.
Flash or link me your outfit ideas please savvy and fashionable Otters.
