Great finds PF! Although with those prices it looks like [STRIKE]I'll[/STRIKE] mum will have to make it for me.

I'm almost tempted to buy something cheap in Thailand (I won't have much wonga left after flights/hotel etc).

I was hoping AA would thow up something but it's either not the right colour or not in my size.

Good effort considering I haven't given you any details, PF!

I wouldn't go if I had to wear pink. That's how much I hate the colour.

How about the pink one of these?

Nameyourblog - wow, a trip to Thailand, sounds brilliant.

DB - love the new profile pic.

Mad, hectic day at work today. Wore paisley print tunic, skinny jeans and black suede ankle boots.

Thingy updated with latest purchase - wouldn't mind some feedback on whether it's nice or nasty!

Afternoon ladies and gents!

I've just come home to some 'shocking' news. Pete's Thai school friend is getting married in January in Thailand and we've been invited (:D) however, I said to Pete to find out if there are any clothing does and don'ts as we wouldn't want to put our foot in it.

Anyway, I come home and Pete says he has some bad news.

Me: How bad?
Him: Bad.
Me: Go for it.
Him: You have to wear a shocking pink dress.
Me: You serious?
Him: Yes. It's what the bride wants. Everyone has to wear pink. She wants a pink wedding.
Me: Poo.

I never wear pink. Let alone a shocking pink dress. So the search is on and I'm not looking forward to it! :rotfl:

Hope everyone is having a lovely day.

Pink is a big colour in Thailand because the king wears it. It's supposed to bring luck.

Good morning
Am off in to work with Mum as a favour...they have a mountain of photocopying to be done. Hoping it provides some distraction and gets me used to working.

Outfit:
Cobweb print maxi skirt: New Look
Black tee: New Look
Pale pink oversized chunky jumper: store twenty one
London taxi socks : store twenty one
Black lace up "stomping" boots: new look


Not sure how I feel about the skirt. It highlights lumps and bumps, and is two sizes bigger than I used to wear at this weight, to accomodate my re-feeding tum,
but its comfy and the jumper hides the worst of it

It's a shame the men aren't being made to wear it too. They get away with a black tuxedo, which is odd as black is considered bad luck to wear to a wedding in Thailand.

Thanks for the ideas ladies! At least I have a few months to find something
