The dress looks pretty

And my la redoute stuff is weird sizes too, with the vest tops being especially big.
I've sent the skirt, purple cardi & 2 vest tops back. Looking forward to getting the money back so i can spend it again

Also i have good news from debenhams.... they had some of the alice palettes in stock today so i am being sent a replacement. I get to keep the broken one for free too, hooray!

Aw MF- that is excellent news about the Alice Palette, I'm kinda jealous that you get two lots of the colours

I went for the black mushroom shoes



£22 on Ebay and they look to be almost brand new

Oh they're fabulous. Dammit, all the IC ones I like on ebay are really expensive!


Oh I'm dithering. I've got a lot of dresses now (well, 6, which is a lot when I've previously had none for years and years) and it's not essential I buy it now. The lovely polka dot dress I have is (I think) exactly the same style and looks lovely on so it would be a shame not to get it. Or do I make the bold leap and get it in a 14 to wear in the summer?

I'm annoying myself now. Perhaps I should just go and try it on on the way home and see how I feel.

Result Marzipan! I love the look of Urban Decay palettes, but they're out of my price range right now.

I just got a phone call asking me to start work on Monday not from any of the jobs I've interviewed for though, just temp work at a local knitwear firm, but still. I can join the gym again! :rotfl:

ETA: Alex, try it on and see how you feel. ;-)

MarzipanFish

congrats on the job!

hehe, yeah, i'm really pleased. I was so shocked when the guy on the phone told me to dispose of the broken one so i was like 'what? are you SURE??'
It should be out of my price range too magpye
Considering ebaying the replacement one but i'm a bit of a wuss when it comes to doing naughty things like that!

Congrats Lou!

Magpye: whoohooo!

alex: try it on. How is your bank balance? If its healthy and you love it, get it. If not, hold fire then get the 14.

Oh yes, congrats Magpye
