    Those are AMAZING piccies! you look so happy! I really want your bolero/jacket, where did you get it?

    Bolero was from this seller: http://shop.ebay.co.uk/misty123*/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_from=&_ipg=25

    Just a tip-if she asks you for your measurements, add an extra inch or so. Mine was made to my exact measurements and was too small as the fabric (organza) had no give. I ended up wearing my BMs spare one on the day (she'd ordered both a long and a short sleeve version).

    Yeah, that's what I would do. She accepts exchanges if it doesn't fit anyway and you have time. Only reason I couldn't exchange mine was I'd asked for it to be made with 3/4 length sleeves, which counted as custom made.

    Thank you! I really LOVED my petticoat, it was such fun flashing it at people!! :D I actually bought it specifically so I could dye it, my dress didn't really need it as already had one built in.
