Outfit Help!

    Can anyone recommend a 'going out outfit' please? Clothes, shoes and accessories.

    I am 5'5, 19 (female) and a size 8-10.

    I don't wear high heels (I can't walk in them) and I don't want anything fitted as I have a slight pot-belly and my boobs are quite small (32AA).

    I am absolutely lost and don't know where to look or what to look for.

    Total: €80 (and if I buy online, it has to include shipping). I need the outfit for next Wednesday (latest).

    Thanks for any help.

    Dress is sorted. I'm gonna wear this.

    I was thinking maybe with (navy) tights (the dress is navy).

    What shoes and accessories would I wear with it though?

    Maybe these earrings?

    What shoes though?

    I think a nude/dusty pink colour shoe would be lovely with it. The earrings are very cute, so I'd go for them and no necklace, as the shoulder has a lot of detail. A bangle/braclet would be nice too.

    Thank you Twee.

    Is this bangle suitable do you think?

    I got it in Jean Junction (Mulling branch), but they shops in in Waterford, Clonmel and Navan.

    It was €29 euros. It comes in a Grey colour too and Black as well iirc.

    Yup, they'd look lovely with it, and the bangle.

    What are you opinons on it? And does anyone know where I can get seamless tights please? Can't buy online as I've no time, and for as cheap as possible.

    You can get seamless tights in Arnotts - but they're really expensive, Wolford. Very good quality but might be close to 30€.

    Aristoc do sheer seamless ones for about 15€ I think, and I saw them in House of Frasier but it was earlier this year. Maybe give them a ring?

    Online there's loads. I've heard the Pierre Mantoux ones are great, I wish there was a better range in our high street stores!

    That's really cute. If I were you, I'd buy those crazy granny pants in Penneys, the ones that practically go up to your bust and have no seams at all, so as to rule out any kind of panty line. Seamless tights in Penneys too.
