    This one could be dressed up with a sparkly shrug type thing?

    I love this one or this one from Debenhams - great reductions, but over budget

    charity shop is one place you might get lucky... that's where most "occasion" dresses that have only been worn once end up. At least round here anyway.

    Or ask around at work to see if anyone has anything lurking in their wardrobe they could lend you.

    Then spend the £15 on accessories that you can wear again.:p
