    Hey guys,

    Long time lurker, first time poster!!

    So I'm going out tomorrow night and would love something new to wear, I'm basically looking for a dress to wear with tights or a long top to wear with leggings and I'd love some help!! I don't have a lot to spend really so hopefully you'd know of some bargains!

    Im a size 14, have big boobs so need low cut/ "cleavagey" top/dress cos I look dreadful in high neck tops/dresses (which is very annoying because theres loads of lovely ones out at the mo!) so basically any help would be much appreciated!!

    How are you with your arms out etc? Would you be a sleeveless sort of person or can u pull off boobtube type things?

    Are you glitzy glam? Shiny? Looking for black? Bright colours?

    Miss Selfridge do loads really nice stuff at the moment! Even their dresses can be teamed with leggings/tights/footless tights, as I find they can usually be rather short but work out great as long tops!

    i got lovely black leggings in Dunnes last week for €4!! nothing wrong with them - nice and comfy! and they wash very well! you could get them and get long top to go over it.

    Cant wear boobtubes, I need the extra support from the straps. I'm ok with my arms, strapless bras hurt me no matter how much money I spend on them!! Would prob prefer sleeves either short or long just because the weather is soooooo cold!!

    I tend to always go for black clothes which I only noticed recently but I love colour, I'm not afraid of wearing bright things you know! Suppose I always go for the safety of just throwing on a black top or whatever thats why I wanted to get some ideas from the girls on here :)

    I'd prob opt for a classic look rather than sequins etc

    Both Awear and Penneys have fabulous stuff at the moment.

    Something like this is really pretty and quite classic. They have another one similar but I think you may find the neck a little high.

    Penneys have similar and of course are much cheaper. What area will you be shopping?

    Oooh thats lovely!

    I'll be heading to town tomorrow so have a big choice there! I haven't been to Penneys in ages so hopefully I find something there!

    Yeh Penneys have great stuff, you should definitely get something. Also if you're over Henry St way, Dorothy Perkins always have great stuff which is never too expensive. Dunnes aswell, I haven't been there in a couple of weeks but they have gorgeous stuff for super cheap these days.

    Oh cool, hope I find something sufficient!! Ya know when you just wanna look your best! Was looking on the miss selfridge and topshop site & seen a few nice things....I'm being drawn towards a lot of midnight blue velvet clothes!! Loving the velvety gothic look although its not my usual style!

    Have a look in debenhams too then, red herring have a few velvety bits!

    There's lots of nice stuff out there, if you're looking for something different don't be afraid to try new things on - if you try them on and they don't suit you - then at least you know next time!!

    I got lots of nice stuff in Dunnes last night! Great bargains to be had.
