    def try ebay ,i love coast dresses but no way i'd pay the full price :o lol

    you dont have to wear a jacket,what about a little shrug / bolero / wrap ? :)

    Got one from ebay £5. from Next. I definitely think I will go for a shrug, need to lose a couple of lbs so the dress looks right but shouldn't be a problem :D

    Gonna have to wait til the weekend I'm afraid, off to bed in a tick and then not on for long enough to put it on. I'll remember at the weekend to stick a picture on though. It's a strappy cornflower blue dress with a flower pattern which blends into the dress :D

I am looking for Dresses for the girls (8+2yrs) next weekend. Getting a taxi to and from reg office. He already has his suit and it parents and siblings only. So wedding party of 20 woo hoo. Should really organise a party but we want to go on holiday and you can't have everything !!!

    Hi all - wedding was wonderful. Here's the first pics that have rolled in. The tips that noone told me: don't bother with the regular cubicles, head straight for the disabled loos in big skirts. Took me a while to figure that out. Also, wear a shirt to the hairdressers so you don't have to take a top off over your new hair!
