Hello This is one of my most pressing concerns of the entire wedding so far (ok only 2 days in so nothing else has really come up). I am very much hoping my best friend will agree to be my 'Best Girl' for this wedding. She suffers from ME / CFS, and whilst being 5ft 1, has put on a lot of weight in the last few years simply because she can't exercise and also her boyfriend tends to give her overly large portions (she has to eat Something though as otherwise her blood sugar crashes and she gets even iller). Now obviously I don't give a monkeys what size she is, she's my best friend and I love her and I realllllly want her to be my Best Girl. However she's lost a lot of confidence, and can't afford new clothes, and so not only do neither of us currently have any idea what would suit her, she's also likely to get very stressed out and upset if I start dragging her round dress shops to try on lots of things that potentially won't look nice :lol: So I'm trying to pre-empt this by asking the opinion of you all, please please can you give me any hints and tips on the sort of things that will look nice on her. She's 5ft 1 with long, dark hair. Her weight as far as she tells it (it's hard to tell with what she wears) is fairly evenly distributed everywhere and I know she feels she has no waist, chubby legs, fat arms etc... I am absolutely SURE that regardless of the weight gain, there will be some clothes that will look utterly sexy and incredible on her :lol: but not being a girl who's particularly gifted in the ways of fashion, I don't know what. I'm happy for any decade, any style and any colour. I'm also more than happy (and indeed intent upon) buying her shoes, accessories, underwear and possibly a hat. So I throw myself upon your mercy fellow board-readers, please help if you can!
