"Fluffy" women continued - when it's not formal..

Good morning, ladies.

 

I'm hoping someone can help me. I'm in need of a nice short white dress for a white party on my upcoming Carnival cruise. I prefer things that are more youthful and have a shape. Mumu's are not my thing. I'm currently a size 16, depending on the designer and style of dress. May be an 18 or 16W. Well since it's October I'm having a hard time finding anything I like. I'm searching Ebay, which I shop on a lot, but not having much luck. Anyone know any other online spots I could try that might have some cute/sexy white dresses? I would even consider a jumpsuit.

 

TIA.

 

 

Here's a link to a few on Lane Bryant's sister site... if you click on the colour white, there are a couple cute short dresses but as you said, it is rather tough finding white at this time of year!

I just got this dress from Sears.ca - with discounts it cost $14. CDN. I may give it to my daughter instead, I'm not 100% sure it's not too youngish for me - 61?? thoughts? Shar

 

I don't think it is too young for you. But, you have to wear what is comfortable for you. I am even older than you and think the dress is fine and absolutely perfect for a Caribbean cruise.

Nice bargain! It's a great colour and it doesn't seem too "young". I say go for it! :p Going to check out Sears now....

Tia check out White House Black Market. Online they go up to a size 16. I float between a 14-16 these days and their 14s fit me wonderfully. They have some cute white dresses on clearance right now.

 

Thanks for the suggestion. Also, TIA isn't my name, it's Thanks In Advance. :D

Catherines (Lane Bryant) is still got their buy $100/ get $50 off sale. I bought two really nice tops today for $48 each, a pair of pantyhose for $6, and with my Perks card the total was a little over $50. These are nice blouses, too, as I just bought two with this sale about a month ago.

 

Here's two of them:

(I cut the sleeves off at the elbow on this one. A little less fabric, and it's cooler that way, too.)

 

I also loved this one for formal night, but I have several black dressy tops already:
