    Can i ask some advise please :

    I have bought this dress for the wedding we are going to in a week:

    http://www.dorothyperkins.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=0&viewAllFlag=&catalogId=33053&storeId=12552&productId=2636722&langId=-1&sort_field=Relevance&categoryId=208782&parent_categoryId=226988&pageSize=20

    What colour bag and shoes do you reckon would look nice. I am thinking maybe just black but is a bit boring so don't know if anyone else thinks another colour?

    Love the dress, it will look stunning on you! I personally would go for a pink (cerise). I don't think I would go black, red would be nice too and might be more autumnal!

    Just a quick post to say I am reading but with breastfeeding, a toddler and trying to pack to move home next week I am busy busy.

    Hope everyone is well xxx

    I'd probably go nude as its a bit colour of the moment and makes my legs look longer, but a complementary turquoise would be a consideration too. I try to avoid black as I feel like I'm in workwear.

    Thnks for the advise ! OH thought pink would be good too (he must be a secret style geru ). I have pink shoes but strugglingto find a bag. I also quite like the red and nude. Will have to have a look round and see what i can find.

    Lol I meant on ebay :D

    :o ultimate blonde moment there! Some Alton Towers tickets from the offer that The Sun did a while back, obviously its in the T&Cs that they aren't for resale so I am in the wrong, its just annoying that there are loads of others on there still! Have stuck them on facebook but no interest so far. Going to try gumtree today too.

    Also have you heard of Cha Cha? Seems similar to AQA but they are recruiting in the UK at the moment. Only pays a few pence per question so might be a lot of effort for not many pennies but thought I would mention it, I've been part accepted just have to pass the final test, thought I'd give it ago. Assuming I ever do get my home internet of course!

    ETA Hi CMD! Good to 'see' you! And Wendz - love love love that dress! I think I would say nude as well actually, plus as Dinah says, very on trend at present so should be lots about - in theory! My local DP's has just closed down :(

    Try listing for 24 hours less likely for ebay police to get you

    I was thinking a BIN? Resent paying fees but in a couple of weeks they'll be worthless. Thing is they might've flagged my account or something now, I don't know how the eBay police operate! Will give it a try, maybe they all work 9 to 5 and I can sell it while they're at home!

  • Ooh nice dress Wendz, I say nude too. But then red/pink look awful on me so I never wear them, blacks a bit officey maybe.

    Jeez CMD you are super woman, I'd forgotten about the move. Glad everythings going OK

    I'd give it another go shrimpy, or does your OH or someone have an account? Surely they cant keep an eye on everyone who've they've ticked off all the time!

    4.30 start tomorrow and Friday for some factory trials for new products, I will have earnt my weekend!
