  • Wanchai- That dress is stunning, they both are. I have no idea how your going to decide. There is such a huge difference in price between them though.

    I need to get back on the motorway, Im hoping to have maintained this week, but I wouldnt be suprised if I had gained!!

    Today I have had
    fat free yoghurt drink
    banana
    And I have to confess I didnt have porridge today- I was too full after have the yummiest chocolate brownie, but I decided it was ok as it was for children in need!!:rotfl:

    My ring is at mil2bs aswell otherwise I would be wearing it all the time!!:D

    Thanks PinkPrincess (btw, can someone tell me all the RL names that you ladies use, I keep getting confused! :o ).

    I do love the Faye dress, it is exquisite, but could I justify £2,500 on a dress??? :eek:

    It is going to be very hard to decide!!! I am hoping that a dress just jumps out at me tomorrow as The One (and costs about £500 :rotfl: ) Am so excited!!!! :D:D Decision time is almost upon us!

    As I sent it I thought oh does it mean real life names!

    Well im emma
    MrsD is Natalie
    LauraLou is LauraL
    Futurecooper is Melanie
    Silaqui is Mel
    quaveriw is Michelle
    wxy is Alice
    Tfutcher is tracey
    Lovecake is rachel

    I cant think of who else is who! There may be some names on the front list!
  • I love those dresses Wanchai, they are both stunning. It such a huge amount to spend on a dress but if it makes you feel special and you know it will mean so much to wear on your one and only wedding day then buy it! Would you consider selling it on afterwards, perhaps? I could quite happily wear a second hand dress but my H2B wasn't happy with that idea. I suppose it depends also who is paying for the dress. If you are then have the one you truly want as you have to work the hours to pay for it but if its your mum or H2B then maybe, just maybe, you might have to source a cheaper alternative without losing the look.

    So i have to wait til tomorrow to find out the verdict! I hope you didn't keep your H2B waiting this long when he popped the question!!!!! x

    Thanks for that Emma! Eeek, how will I remember them all! :rotfl: I'll have to print out the list and stick it on my PC and phone! :D

    I might stay incognito for now, I have quite an unusual name and you never know who may be reading... hope you don't mind! blush.gif

    I would consider selling it afterwards, it would kill me though! I'd rather buy it second hand and keep it. :)

    £1,000 is expensive enough (right at the very very top end of my budget) but £2,500 is completely :eek: I couldn't justify it... :(


    Sorry to keep you waiting even longer! :rotfl:

    Oooh, that is indeed very pretty!!! Thanks. Must have a nosey at the vintage stuff on there.

    I have been taking the approach of trying dresses on and then attempting to find them cheaper online. Not sure I could buy one that I hadn't seen IRL blush.gif

    p.s. have you got the actual link to that dress? xx

    Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay it's the weekend!

    Right I'm having one last night of naughtiness - tonight. Then tomorrow first thing I'm turning this car around and joining the motorway again. (Although it's my birthday on Monday so I may be naughty then too).
