I want the halloween one with skulls and crossbones on it.
Not want. Possibly need. A need that is actually bordering on desperation. But it is only available in size 12. And I am skint. 
It's called PIRATE.

There are some good vintage shops on Columbia Road and Brick Lane. Or try curvygirlvintage.com.


it's gorgeous, isn't it. it makes me want a whole different body shape.![]()
Probably for the best money-wise anyway. 
I only started wearing frocks last year because I just didn't feel feminine enough. I'm glad I did though, I think you just have to try on everything and find a style that suits. I'm lucky that dresses where the skirt starts just under the bust are available and 50's style dresses. They look ok on me (I think)I've never worn a party frock
I just never find one to suit and I dread Christmas partys etc , oooh lets bring out the black trousers again.
It makes me feel horrible about myself. PAH!

I don't go by budget if I'm after something. I just look and find something I like/want although....I can't afford hundreds of pounds!lots of repro / retro stuff around. less vintage, but it's there if that's what you want. ebay is a starting point. what's your budget?

I've got the Office-Xmas-party-must-find-a-dress misery too. Normally you wouldn't catch me anywhere near a thread titled like this one, and the whole trauma is compounded by me utterly hating shopping, especially clothes shopping, and even more so if it's clothes for me.
