No Birdie it's no good, we definitely need piccies of the actual shoes

Those shoes are gorgeous Birdie, I'd NEVER be able to walk in them though, could just stand prettily I suppose!

I shall post piccies tonight! Any excuse to get them out of the box again! It's really annoying that there are no pictures online, I can find them in pink and black but not blue! I rang OH to ask what the box said in case I was being stupid by looking for 'blue' when they're classed as 'periwinkle' or something daft but no, in fact he claimed that the box says 'Silly blue shoes with chav red sole'!!!! He has no idea!

I'm not very graceful in heels TBH but I put them on after a day of walking around so my feet were sore and they still felt comfortable and I could walk really well, I'm very impressed! Not sure how well I'll walk in them after a bottle of champagne...

A BOTTLE of champagne?! Well it's your day I suppose!! Ooh the more I look at this blue dress the more I like it, and I'm sort of thinking I have 4 weddings to go to this year (eek, hope no funerals!) but can't justify that amount on four evening dos! I have lots of lovely dresses already, sigh!

Not wanting to play Devil's Advocate but it does look like it'd suit you!

I got these dresses on Tuesday (my Mum bought me one!), they should be nice for the holiday! The first one isn't quite so orange in real life, more coral coloured.

Think that means your clothes spending total in the sig needs an update I like the top one, its pretty.

Birdie85

It does indeed! Just need to tot it up but it's still not too bad. It would be a lot worse if my Mum had her way, she was getting quite frustrated by me saying 'I can't afford it' all the time!

Tete_en_l'Air

Haha - noooo! I'd rather have another break away for the £135 that dress would cost, I've spent lass than that going to Italy (minus the spending money)!

They're both lovely dresses, I'd like to wear more strapless things I think, I only have one top. Can't get over the feeling of not having anything to hold them up though haha!

Birdie85

I know the feeling Tete, I like strapless tops/dresses but always wear a bra underneath just in case, even though I don't really need to! My Mum bought me a little girly 'survival kit' a while ago that has tape to hold tops up so I might have to get that out! The top dress has little straps that can be added too just in case!

My wedding dress is strapless and I don't think I'll bother with a bra since it's quite supportive (and the less I have to wear the better really!) but the really great thing is that it has little 'pockets' to slip chicken fillets in to give my cleavage a boost!
