It is quite problematic for me as, ah, to put it bluntly I have got quite large breasts; large enough that strapless simply will not be feasible. So I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions for a formal, strappy/halterneck dress? It needs to be knee length. I’m a British reader so I won’t have any access to American shops. I’m a British size 12 if anyone needs that information…
And, as well as that I’m afraid I must further impose upon your generosity – you see I’m also looking for a hairstyle to have done for the leaver’s ball. My hair is quite long – about elbow length, reddish brown and wavy. I was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of any pretty half updos/ full updos that would look good?
Thank you very much for reading, and I hope you’ll reply =]

I feel your pain with the whole my-chest-is-too-big-for-strapless-thing.
What about this from topshop in the UK? It’s totally cute and form-fitting, even though it’s a “sun dress,” I think you could rock it.
And this dress is freaking adorable. I like the crushed lace effect.
I also kind of have a crush on this dress, also from a British shop (:
As for your hair, I’m a big fan of this look.
But if it’s going to be hot, you may want to try something simple to get your hair up, youtube has some quick, easy tutorial videos (like this one) for long updos.
Good luck (:

@TheRealMelanie@xanga - I really like the updo in the Youtube video.

I can’t help you with the dress… but if you browse through the hair tutorials from ‘itsjudytime’ on youtube she’ll provide some fun and summer-y updos. Her hair is quite long as well so I think it’ll work out.

LMeester looks so pretty! If you can find a simple colored dress with thick straps and not too much cleavage, I think you can doll it up really nicely with some nice accessories and good makeup and shoes.
