    Incase anyone is interested its the 'purple' range in DPs - litterally LOVE all thier stuff and would buy it all if it wasnt so expensive...this is now my 6th dress by them I think (3 bought on ebay) and the rest I havent paid full price for thanks to vouchers and student discount. Got one totally free thanks to a giftcard for my birthday last year :j


    I hate when bras don't go right under clothes:mad: I end up spending the whole day readjusting my top half constantly:rotfl:

    I'm looking on the DP website now and I loooove this dress:

    I think i'm a bit fat to get away with it though:rotfl:

    They've got some really nice stuff :j

    I usually stick stuff on tinypic or similar to post here:money: Or facebook, because i'm lazy:p You need the link that ends in .jpg .png .gif or similar, is that what you mean? :o

    Lucky escape with your dirty pics :naughty: Could have been a shock to your friends and family :rotfl::rotfl:

    Just reading through that thread Sarah:D

    That dress is nice - I always find most 'fitted' stuff is fitted in completely the wrong places, hence I look a bit ridiculous. I have HUGE hips so anything that is tight makes me look stupid - but then I buy anything 'loose' fitting and it just seems to hang on me and make me look huge anyway. I hate trying to find clothes!

    Im a size 12 in tops - but it depends as some 12's don't seem to cater for breasts (and to be honest Id say mine were fairly 'average'). Bottom half of me really depends, my waist is fairly small but due to the size of my hips Im a size 14-16 in jeans just to be able to pull them up- but in tights/ leggings/ skirts a 12 - needless to say I NEVER wear jeans

    Haha as dirty as it could have been - ;) thankfully it was only a pic of my computer screen - the memory card was plugged into the comp so I just took a random photo of the comp so I had a pic actually on my phone to try and upload directly :D Thankfully the majority of pics on my memory card are either of Roddy (hamster) or the dog haha so nothing naughty - sorry to disapoint :p
    To be honest the very worst pics I have on there are from a drunken night out with the girls from last year, we all look terrible. They shall never be shared with anyone haha

    I've met her sister, the Big-ar*ed Elf. I wish she'd stop turning up....

    They've all visited me - the b00b fairy, the hip fairy, the ar$$e elf, the thigh gnome and the tummy goblin :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I pray for rainbows so they'll all bog off and look for gold :rotfl:

    I have bizarrely tiny hands, wrists, feet and ankles though :rotfl:

    I find they're fitted in the wrong places too! I'm smaller on top and giant around my hips/thighs like a triange shape so find clothes shopping a nightmare and just end up getting everything in 2/3 sizes :rotfl: Not very MSE :p:o

    Yeaaaah yeaaaah we believe you about the pics:rotfl: I think mine is full of pics of nails at the moment :rotfl: That could take a bit of explaining if 100s of pics of my hands randomly appeared on my fb:rotfl:

    :rotfl: The hips and thigh fairy visits me, the b!tch. I might start pelting her with my manky toiletries :rotfl:

    Snap! - the only thing small on me is my fingers which OH always makes fun of. My hands themselves are normal but I just seem to have fat and stumpy fingers...there again OH always says Im small in height - In reality Im almost 5"7 so not that small - he's 5"11 so its not like he's much taller than me anyway ;) although I remember when his mum measured him for his graduation gown - she turned round and said 'you're 7"3' how the hell she got to that figure we've no idea!

    Just checked the weather for the rest of the week - meant to be sunny and between 20-24 degrees here :j: Anyone going away for the long weekend?

    I saw a warning notice about ar*se thieves operating in my area. I realised that I had been a victim, as the nice curvy size 12 I had a few years ago was taken and replaced with a saggier, bigger version. Why didn't I call the police, I hear you ask? Because they had stolen my thighs and left me a cellulite scattered pair that matched the new bum. I hadn't even noticed because I couldn't see over the muffin top they had put in to hide the view.

    I thought they had come back last night and stolen my b00bs, but when I sat up I realised they had just been hiding in my armpits. I'm keeping them tucked in my waist band for safety now.
