Friends wedding


My friends is getting married in august, and typically I bought a beautiful dress but it deffo wont fit (size 8 clingy thing)

Does anyone know of anywhere I can get pretty maternity evening wear?
Ive looked online but all a bit pricey, is there any high street stores that are good for this?

Bearing in mind I'll be 21 weeks gone, but still wanna look nice!

try a wrap dress and just lots of accesories; there are reasonable ones in GAP maternity or isabelle oliver if you want to spend a bit more...

I wore a black wrap dress yesterday and accesorised it with fab shoes and bright flower corsage. Was very comfy too and it looked really flattering too. Also treat yourself to having your hair done too is definitely the best way. Or go onto blooming marvellous website as they have some lovely bits on there too.

mothercare had a really nice skirt and matching top when I was there the other week which I thought could work for a wedding - with a nice scarf or hat or something to jazz it up?!:

to avoid the whole sack thing though I'd agree it's best to either go for something tight - a wrap around dress - or a top and smart fitted trosusers.

I like that, if you wanted you could aways sinch it in with a stretchy belt or even a silky scarf! I'll be huge so being able to sit in the pew will be my biggest problem. I do like that though thats the best I've seen so far.
