Canon 85mm f/1.8 or Canon 50mm f/1.4?

I need something for full body portraits, and good in low light settings. My 60mm f/2.8 is beautiful, but it's ideal for headshots and macro.

I'm not looking to spend a lot of money so if you have a good alternative to these lenses that would suit my needs, please feel free to give more than one suggestion!

I don't want to settle for the 50mm's cheaper f/1.8 because, despite how good the shots are and how price conscious it is, it's a cheap make, and I want something a little sturdier.

Feedback and alternative suggestions are greatly appreciated!
