I like this but not sure if it's what you are after.

iCod, I mean that I need a long dress/skirt and top for a wedding.

LaDiDaDi - even though it's for a wedding, the dress you linked to is a bit more formal than I was really after. Thanks though.

The wedding is going to be quite trendy with lots of model types going (no pressure on me then!).

Missblythe - it's at someone's house, I presume in a marquee, but I'm only going to the reception. Does that help?

and if it's not that formal why does it need to be full length?

is this completely wrong?

The dress code is full length and perhaps 'too formal' was the wrong way to put it, but the dress that was suggested wasn't what I was looking for.

I'd like something that doesn't make me feel/look like a frumpy mum amongst all the beautiful people who will be there so I'm hoping that I'll find something.

Perkin - that's pretty. I'll bookmark it, thanks.

Bex, if you like Perkin's dress, have a look in Zara. (just looked in the website, but is rubbish, so oyu'll need to go in store)

They have got lots of lovely frocks in there for around £70, and with full length you can get away with wearing pretty flat flip-flops instead of heels, which is a good thing, IMO.

Miss B - thanks, there's a Zara near me so I'll go and have a look.
