    Any one heard of or used a site called Witt International! Had small catalogue in a magazine today.
    Growing old disgracefully!

    I managed to get to a TK Maxx store at the beginning of the week - they no longer have their Plus Size rack!! Apparently, they are extending their size range and plus sized clothes will be found with the rest of the items. Unfortunately, what I saw was a very limited plus size stock now :(

    Gutted, as I used to buy most of my clothes from there.

    They've being doing that on and off, like m&s, every now and again they switch. I too prefer to have plus sizes separate, as they get lost with other stuff when choice is limited. and don't like having to look at the pretty stuff I can't have....

    on a different subject, I've been trying to shop on one of the Littlewoods site, it's been a nightmare, prices and availability changing all the time. One skirt increased from £5 to 10, one jumper from £4 to 9!!!!
    It took me ages just to buy a couple of things, it will be a long time before I shop there again.
    anyone else having problems?

    Think for such a special occasion you will just have to bite the bullet and go for a fitting to get the perfect undergarments for your wedding, you don't want to spoil the ship for a ha'porth of tar, so to speak. (Don't forget, you'll be looking at those photos for the rest of your life....) Congratulations anyway! When's the big day?

    Thanks for reply. 29th Feb! Not long! I have never worn a strapless bra before, couldn't believe it could keep everything where it should be! Hoping someone will come along and say they've tried a particular brand and what they thought of it. I am worried about going out and spending on it, and then finding that after an hour or so it's not doing the job / uncomfortable etc :eek:
    I've already been let down by the people who were meant to make my dress :( and had to order a new one this morning. Feeling a bit sad as had my heart set on it, and it feels like second best now iykwim.

    Ok, new wedding Q! Where did you get your wedding shoes? Comfort is a must, but need a heel do to lack of height! I like a wider / more solid heel. Looking for dark/wine red or ivory or silver.... any of those will match! Any ideas appreciated :)

    .

    Unfortunately if it's going to 'do the job' properly, it will probably not be comfortable. To hold everything up it will need to be very tight in the back size. I still recommend a proper fitting. Think of it as an investment.
    So, best of luck for leap year day! :)

    Hi I do.. http://www.fashionworld.co.uk/shop/product/details/show.action?pdLpUid=MM068&pdBoUid=5171&lpgUid=#colour:BLACK,size:

    had mine over two years and it gets an outing every now and again. No strapless bra is as comfortable as one with straps but this one holds the baps for the baker! xxxxxxxxxx:T
