Lanise says, “My 25th birthday party is coming up next month and I need help with outfit ideas. I love Louboutins/YSL but that’s all I can come up with for now. Please help. I am a size 16 and I need your advice!”
Splurge on your shoes and save on a cute dress from UK store Dorothy Perkins. They have lots of cute picks, affordable prices, ship worldwide, and go up to a size 22!
I found two dresses from their store to help you with your big day:
This £30 (approximately $48) Animal Ruched Jersey dress would look great with Christian Louboutin leather booties and gold accents:
If you want a bit of color, try this £32 (approximately $52) Purple Drape Kimono dress, and add extra pop with bright yellow accessories:
Though you love your Loubies, I gave your wallet a break with these $110 Guess Women’s Kinetic Platform Sandals:
If you’re wary of ordering from overseas, you can also find lots of birthday ready dresses for the plus sized set here:
I’d also recommend hitting up stores like www.MonifC.com for showstopping dresses for your special day.
Hope that was helpful!

OMG the bright yellow pop with that purple is a good look! You would be expected to dress in more earthy colors considering its the Fall season but I love it waaay more than the animal print! Too bad that purse is sold out :(

Great selections indeed! I love that champagne sequin dress, though the kimono draped dress has to be my favourite. Simple yet very chic. Love it!!!
