    Love the cardi lost :) I'm really struggling to find a nice longish chunky knit cardi. Have been all over the place looking for one and they're all either a weird cut or really shoddily made. I'm hoping M&S might have something.

    The F&F couture stuff is nice isn't it? They had some really lovely bits in the sale last time I looked but it's still awfully pricey.

    Char - love that dress! I had a very similar skirt back in my teens and loved it.

    My only problem with party dresses is the lack of sleeves as I still hate showing my arms off and don't like covering the dress up with a cardi or shrug. Might have found the perfect thing in Primark though, it's a gorgeous teal 60's style dress with chiffon sleeves and embellishment round the neckline and cuffs. Just need an opportunity to wear it now though!

    i do like brocade - i have a prom dress in a similar blue with gold, and also i think, a silver tulip brocade skirt, which i love, but i find it a little difficult to walk in..

    I've worked the Halloween event at work for the past 5 years and I'm definitely not doing it this year. I'm going in to do all the decorating because I'm apparently quite the whiz with fake cobwebs, but I am not working the evening part. I'm doing something very unhalloweeny like going out for dinner or something.
