I've been very naughty and bought a dress yesterday, I've stopped counting how much I've gone over the £170 budget

Dh is president of his association this year and we have a weekend away and black tie do (where I have to give a thank you speech for the ladies :eek:) I found a jenny packham evening gown in debenhams sale £150 reduced to £50 which is a little too tight , so I can slim into it (the fear of doing a speech should help putting me off food a few weeks before ) can't do a link as they don't have it online but its light grey chiffon with a crystal waistband, kind of vintage downtown abbey style but floor length.

I am so pleased, just shows how often I buy nice clothes :rotfl:

Work today , then giving dd a lift to a theatre meeting, then gym, then hemming school trousers. Pah, I just want to sit on the sofa

Your new dress sounds lovely NG £50 from £150 is a wonderful bargain!

I think you are doing wonderfully at still OPing while lots seems to be going on. I'm just concentrating on not going into the red this year

The dress sounds lovely and it's better buying it now in the sale than buying something else later full price. Plus, if you ever decide to sell it it's a good brand.

Is it this one, newgirly?: http://www.debenhams.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/prod_10701_10001_008010143564_-1


It's lovely! x

Yes it is ! Thanks greent, I was a but confused as it was not on their site earlier, but I think they must have added new dresses today as there are a lot more, it's very sweet of you to go to the trouble

Its a bit old fashioned according to dd and my aunt says the colour doesn't suit me as I'm pale , but I like it

Nothing to repot today, except I tried to buy a premium bond but need my holders number and have mislaid the £100 bond I already have, so need to write to them. It has to be done quickly as I am useless at saving and liable to spend the money instead.

Aren't family opinions grand? *rolls eyes*

I think your DD meant to say classic not old fashioned NG, it's lovely and I really like the back detail.
