  • oh Gonzo no :( did you try it on before hand? Where did you buy it from? I have no idea what I'm looking for in a dress to be honest. In my head I'm still only about 16 but in reality I'm 29, so a wedding dress to me seems awfully mature lol x

    Nah didn't try it on ordered it on a whim last weekend, and it arrived yesterday. this one http://www.debenhams.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/prod_10701_10001_008010152085_-1?CMP=AFC-ANET-437947


    It was only £65 so worth the chance and I can return it this weekend so not the end of the world.


    I want something strapless, knee length, and plain I think - I didn't like the patterns stuff on this one or the separate layers...


    I'll probably end up with a dress outta New look or something (the joys of running away to get married!)

    oh i think that looks nice! but if you don't feel 100% in it, then definitely best to change it!! I have no idea what i'm looking for, which i think makes it worse!

    It's a really pretty dress, and would look lovely on someone, just not me! - I'm not terribly girly, and quite plain.


    I knew it wouldn't be a long dress as we'll be abroad in the sun and I'm short so don't want to look stumpy! But this was the first dress where I thought it could be the one.

    I got a beautiful skater style dress from Republic {now usc} perhaps worth a look? It was a little short, but if you're short it might not be so short on you. I am 5'5" but have a long body and short legs lol

    oo yeah that's the kind of thing I'd be after. I'm 5'3 so a little shorter and stumpy legs!

    ooo I like the 2nd one - there is a similar one on asos that I'm keeping an eye on. Gonna focus on exercise and diet for a bit and look property in march/april I think. Might be more summery stuff around then
