    that is nice MFD! it looks floaty so might be a bit forgiving IYSWIM? if you order the size you think you are i'm sure that would be fine, if it was meant to be skin tight i'd say you'd have to try it on but you could get away with that one not being 100%?

    do you label your freezer stuff? I don't and the other week cooked rice to go with chilli only to discover once I tasted a bit to see how hot it was that it was bolognaise :doh:
    Yes I do label most stuff - just don't label really obvious things like blackberries or cooked apple. I got the stock/baked beans mixed up because OH had done the baked beans in the same containers as the stock and put them in the same place instead of in the baked beans place so it was only when I took them out of the freezer that I realised.

    Love that dress MFD. You could just get a bra with invisible straps or wear a shrug to cover bra straps maybe? I'd never go braless either, they'd tickle my foof if I leant over!

    Yeah it is sweet that she loves me so much, but makes even nipping out for throat lozenges and chocolate a pain in the bum bum! She's just away to bed now anyways, she napped for 2hours earlier hence why she is up late. Pest she is and didn't even try my loooovely soup, scrambled eggs and toast for her again!

    could you not wear the bra and some form of shrug?

    Go for it MFD. I have one similar style and it makes you look pretty damn good ;)

    ETA, invisible bra straps, or some really pretty looking ones. Personally I am not bothered about bra straps showing (but I'm a hussy)

    I bought this dress last year for OH's Xmas party

    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/MONSOON-ESTELLA-BLACK-WHITE-SILK-MAXI-DRESS-6-PETITE_W0QQitemZ250525181206QQcmdZViewItemQQptZWomen_s_Clothing?hash=item3a5476e516#ht_3353wt_1167

    Not in a 6 though lol. I thought it was quite nice, and I felt nice in it, but felt fat in the photos afterwards! Also because I'm a shortie, I kept tripping over the dress and almost went headfirst down a handrailing lol.

    Doesn't fit now either, and couldn't wear it again this year even i I got it tooken in, what a faux paux....!!!

    LOL!!

    There is a bra recommended with the dress that has see through straps but it only goes to a DD cup...maybe if I buy a bigger band size I could get away with it.

    Will show hubby and see what he says...although he will probably veto me buying a sexy dress to be with a load of men when he can't be there :rolleyes:
