dress me...

I need clothes for the wedding. Most of you know I don't do clothes shopping so if anyones bored find me an outfit suitable for my daughters wedding that won't make me look like a sack of spuds.

Needs to be in fat sizes and no girly stuff! so no MOTB outfits in pinks or lilacs (shudder)

TIA

Skirts?  Dresses?  Suits?  Trousers?

ermm, depends on what they are like, jeans and a t shirt are more me but willing to compromise!

What about this

Can't help with what would suit you but I can say that doing a personal shopper at John Lewis or Debenhams is the way forward.

I hate shopping with a passion and always feel concious about my shape.  I have now done a personal shopper at least 5 times.  They don't charge, they can work to a budget you give them, even if you don't give them a budget they won't pick the most expensive stuff in the shop, they bring you rails full of stuff and will do all the accessories that go with it, they really do have an eye for what will suit you and they will gently encourage you to wear things you would never normally try.  And it turns something I dread into something really quite pleasant. 

Last time I went was for a wedding outfit.  I got a dress the cost of which I can't remember but the silver sandals she brought in were a fiver in the clearance sale. 

Natty - would I ever!

all of the above!

big no waist, enormous hips. face like the back end of a bus, tree trunk legs.

ohh no can't do personal shoppers, they would have to look at me! has to be online.

Thanks though, good suggestion for normal people though!

Ive seen a pic of you, the above is so not true!

Yeah, now I have read your honest description of yourself you are probably right.  I guess they have to draw the line of reasonableness somewhere. 

Would something like this be any good?  Maybe wear a cardingan if you don't want to show your arms?
