Yes it has brown chiffon straps. The picture doesn't really do it justice, I felt really good with it on, but understand that the other two are probably more weddingy dresses.

That means it is only days til my man (not sure if I'm allowed to call him that to his face but you lot wont mind!) is home on wednesday!
Then Suzy, it wont be another week or so until your Love is home as well!!!
So brillliant!!
I havent got any other news, i was browsing online for dresses as i have a fancy wedding at the end of May and need a new dress, as none of my skinny clothes are at all wedding-ish.
I have ordered a few to try on from the catalogue, but of course will only be keeping one....
Then i wondered whether any of my girls on here might have a nice wedding outfit in a size 14 that i could have a borrow of... ever MSE?!
Is that really cheeky of me to ask?
I have a brand new still with tags on red dress from debenhams will get it out and take a picture laterBoiler pot £30.92/£10000 -

"was hoping to catch you for a chat on Tuesday but you didn't turn up and would have much preferred to speak to you face to face. The reason I didn't invite you on Wednesday was because I'm still pretty !!!!ed off about the whole carry on at D's leaving night and the fact that M had to end her night early to escort you home.

Though it has become apparent that you obviously didn't have the money to get home.I had budgetted to travel on the train. I was persuaded to stay longer and share a taxi with M and offers to pay were refused. Michelle told me she wanted to go home as she had a wedding too attend the next day. G wanted me to share a taxi with 3 strangers. I still have one hang up from the assault - I don't do taxis if I can avoid it and definitely not with strangers. I offered to M that I'd get a taxi alone but M refused to let me. I think it is shocking that you have not re-paid M back the money you borrowed from her or even mentioned it to her.M gave me money to put to a drinks kitty to save me having to go out to a bank. We did go to a cash machine later and I gave her that money back then. The money for taxis is in a card in my bag to give M next time I see her. I drew it as soon as my JSA cleared so I had it to give As you know, M is not the kind of person to speak up for herself and is having a hard time (not that everyone isn't). I would appreciate it if you don't mention this chat to her. I'm not expecting an apology personally but I feel that you've taken advantage and you know you are a far stronger character than M."
Also, I haven't seen M since the night out,but I have seen G on the Tuesday after and nothing was said then although the atmosphere was different.
I feel devastated not only that I've been upsetting people, but that there has been whispering behind my back. I will go next week to give M her card, talk to G and say goodbye to the ladies who looked after Nathan but I can't be part of the group when I feel like this:(26.2.19/14.1.19: T MC 3629.26/3629.26 : VM 0% 1050/13876.59 : W 0% 100/1485 = 4409.26/18990.85 =25.17%28.1.19/28.1.19 Hubs 0% £400/£2,977 =13.44%SPC 2019 #073

Morning ex-lurkers! :wave:
Snaggs that dress is gorgeous! I thought it was 2 dresses at first, a blue version and a black one.
Hmmm, what to have for brekky?

Are you going to reply Luc or sit on it for a while?
It seems that she's jumped to conclusions on all counts there.
Do you set her straight and try to move on or let her think what she likes?
