Popping in to say hellooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Not flown, but have had 2 hours of personal shopper help at Debenhams (used vouchers and £ from old job leaving pressies) Have come home with outfits a size smaller than usual - got told off for hiding my curves! And the lovely lady looking after me put everything through the till at 20% off cos they have a daily mil voucher deal on atm, even though I had no vouchers! She also swapped a few more expensive items for cheaper ones and told me where to get almost identical ones in other shops so I could get more for my money (not sure she's supposed to do that lol!) Feel about 10 feet tall, gorgeous and slim and ready to be 40 now yay!
