Going to a dinner party, what to wear?
This is kinda related to motivation since I'm really freaking out. Firstly : I still don't like how I look, I've always considered myself the fat ugly one in the group. I'm social awkward, no friends, and don't typical do these things.
I am an elite yelper, and I got on the guest list to a pretty special dinner party I guess, only 14 were picked out of a lot of people. There was no mention of dress code in the listing page, nor the email sent to me BUT there will be a photographer on hand to take pictures of the food and the people who attend. The place itself also has no dress code but it's in an upscale tendy sorta neighborhood (or atleast it tries to be) and it surrounded by expensive places.
The smart part of me is saying to dress up, however I've donated most of the "nice" things I owned because they don't fit me anymore. I also really don't feel comfortable dressing up, I've never been girly. All I have is a couple shirts like the one I have on in my photo, some nice looking plain sweaters, and a couple really ugly (in my opinion) flowery print tops.
I want to wear a plain black sweater and some blue jeans with boots. Do you guys think this would be enough? I also have the grey sweater in my other photo but It's even less fancy. (although awesomely comfortable :laugh: )
The other problem is I'm broke and don't have the money to just go buy a dress or something, not to mention it's hard to find one in my size that looks good.
What would you do in my position?
