I'm looking for a short evening dress/cocktail dress is there a difference? and I'm being really fussy - I've looked on every website I can think of, and I can think of a lot, but can't find 'the one'.
It's for a work do in March and I have around £100 to spend.
Wish list:
- Not too long as I'm only 5ft 2 (but will wear high heels )
- Not too short so that it looks tarty! Just above knee ideal.
- Not frumpy looking subjective
- Sleeveless is fine, but not strapless as will need a decent bra underneath
- Not too high a neck, I have boobs!
- Some embellishment would be nice, but not a full on glitterball!
- Not black (everyone else wears black!)
- Not nude/pale colours - I suit blues, purples, reds but also like silvers/golds.
- Something that is cool, trendy, not the same Coast/Monsoon dress that everyone else will be wearing!
I'm a size 10/12 pear, aged 31, brown hair, pale skin.
I've looked at so many websites and probably bypassed lots of lovely dresses, so if anyone is up to the challenge then I would be very appeciative of your suggestions!
