I've already written and discarded eight paragraphs of argument intended to convince you that you SHOULD want to look like Doris Day every single day of your life, and have instead decided to work from your premise.
If you can wear a size 12 or smaller (bust 39"/hips 41"), check out this dress from the French catalog La Redoute. Why should you click on the image, through to the catalog page? Because it's wool-silk (no tatty polyester here), and it's only $39.99! Heck, by now I've almost talked myself into this one. What are you waiting for?
A Dress A Day 
I love this dress. I wish I were less thick waisted cause then I’d get it.

Hey, she’s wearing my boots! That’s the first model I’ve ever seen in a catalog without high heel boots, but instead boots that deal with slick ice and snow but still look sweet!
