Slight 'aside' here ..... if you didn't get it 'right', what would be worse in your opinion...being overdressed or being underdressed?

Note...I'm not worried about being either, it was just something that came to mind.

No one will ever accuse me of being overdressed, even on a night out

Id probably prefer to be underdressed rather than feeling like I was too done up, but thats not likely to happen in this lifetime

Btw, some of my best night out clothes have come from charity shops as I said previously my weight has been up and down over the last 6 years or so, by a couple of stones, so that and oxfam online has been great when Ive wanted something to wear that wasnt expensive.

And my dot perkins dress will be wearable for years to come.

If you wear something in this sort of style, everyone will be too busy trying not to stare at your boobs, they won't notice if you have a big belly

And if you lie down on your side, you'll look like a human Swedish flag!

I hate blue and yellow together, it's the worst colour combination anyone ever came up with imo.

Thank you though. (And apologies to all those who like blue and yellow together. :D)

Yes, I don't like that actual dress - but it would accentuate your boobs :rotfl:

I've spent far too long looking through the debenhams sale when I should be packing to go camping ... some of those dresses are really nice, and would be more formal than the one I've already got. Not many in my size though.

It's a fine line for me....I'm a 'blender', I don't like standing out, I prefer being in the background but then I also would be mortified if I was too casual when everyone else was in diamonds and pearls.

Honestly they don't need accentuating. Any more 'accentuated' and I'd be poking folks eyes out. :rotfl:

So, put them on display, and they'll eclipse any imperfections you might have

It depends, sorry to say!

Easier to be a woman than a man in that respect, though - you can whip off the tiara or add an eye-catching necklace to change the look of what you're wearing as a woman, but if a bloke's in black tie and not supposed to be, he's stuck with it.
