I got a bargain by going into a bridal shop and buying an on sale bridesmaids dress. You are limited to sizes and colours depending on what is actually on sale. But I managed to get a floor length forest green dress which was over £200 for less th...
aaahh but the books are more than worth it, though i sometimes think my other half would be happier if i wore my more expensive outfits more often, even if it was just to read in!
Good luck with the dress look forward to seeing it in a couple of w...
Arrgh! Sorry Catiri.
But thanks for the advive, I guess I'm going to go get the dress tomorrow (gulp)
I've also been looking on that moon maiden gothic site Deborah mentioned and there are some lovely items there. Sigh, shame I can't justify a sho...
Tricia,
the dress i was planning on is a red long dress from debut!, i think that would look stunning so may have to re think what i'm wearing now so we don't have to spend the evening on either side of the room. Have also told my other half he do...
Are there any stores nearby that might not mind if we utilise one of thier facilities or perhaps ask the hotel if they have an area that would suffice with so many staying there.
Maybe someone can let you use their room at the Thistle, Tricia? I would offer, but will be at the venue setting up... Hope you find somewhere... lmk if you're stuck though & I'll try and sort something...
Went to Debenhams yesterday and found a dress that I like, not sure if it's a bit over the top though...
Which brings me to my next problem (I'm a pain I know) I'm going to be coming directly from work, so is there anywhere I can get changed?
Im going for a simple suit, nothing fancy just understated, probably a black shirt (I'm putting it together myself) so perhaps also an insignia added for something a little different., other than that, just a tie that can easily be pocketed as the...
Debenhams Debut range is really well cut and fits like a dream regardless of size, also Monsoon do have some beautiful dresses, just depends how much you want to blow on one dress!
Thanks for your help :)
Also being on the largish side I was worried about where to go, didn't think about debenhams, so will give them a try.
Glad I'm not in your shoes though Deborah, getting up on stage Eeek! I am getting really excited about t...
i'm really looking forward to the chance of getting dressed up. I do have a full length dress but am not sure if it will be too much, though my 'lesser half' is looking forward to dusting of the tux as he has very few chances to wear it. Thanks fo...
LOL! Well, as I am a large-ish lady, I do find buying posh frocks sometimes difficult. For this I'm getting my gorgeous skirt online from 'Moon Maiden Gothic' - but as I'm going to be on the stage (gulp!) what I'm wearing might be less than under-...
This is a great idea because now I have a load of new authors to try,and I also don't feel so bad about wanting to bang my head against the wall every time I try to read LOTR, so thanks :)
I suppose that if I were to limit favourite books to those...
So, I've never been to a black tie affair and am having to enlist the help of my sister for a shopping trip.
Can anyone suggest a good place in surrey to look? (for a dress, not my sister, I know where she is)
