    If it's raining, which would you be most comfortable in?

    NB, figure-hugging dress might not be the better option if you're about to eat a big meal! :D

    Gitdog does indeed have a proper name. His name de plume is because his pound name was Giles, his first foster called him something else, and I didn't want to give him a third name when I wasn't keeping him. Well we all know how that went.
    And Gitdog was more succinct than Oipackitin which was option B.

    (The other reason is I was concerned about online privacy so didn't want any identifying details such as real names. Although I kind of blew that one out of the water by posting pictures of him).

    Which outfit gives you more confidence?
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    Neither. I am fat and hideous and look like Jabba the Hut.

  • Ooo, a great look :D

    *sung/chanted* we don't believe you!

    OK, which dress is more slimming, then? x

    I went for the skater dress. The other one looks good but a bit too sophisticated for the only tights I could find which are glittery. The skater dress also has a red belt so I'm wearing bright red shoes. The effect is somewhat ruined by my winter coat and scarf but its freezing outside!

    I love skater dresses.

    I have semi-broken my laptop so can't get on wirelessly any more, which is a real pain. Also, DH insisted on having the laptop yesterday to sort out his own Xmas presents. Also I have 10 million tasks to do by the end of the year.

    I am so sorry that I missed supporting you yesterday WaS, especially after pyxis pm'd me. I have skimmed through your posts but not read them properly.

    I do agree that bad dreams can be a way of dejunking the brain. I had loads of bad dreams when I first went on anti-d's, and every life-revelation since brings its own crop.

    Its not but it really doesn't matter. DH hasn't been very...attentive recently so I'm taking a self-esteem hit atm.

    Don't forget, your best accessory for the party is a sparkling smile.
