this is fucking great i've lost a load of weight recently and i have to keep stopping myself buying jumpsuits, cos i'd never have an occasion to wear one, but i finally have the figure for one

btw ms t sorry i typo'd i was looking at the pic you posted and meant to say non-model pics, i haven't seen a model pic for that dress hence at-sea-ness abut length.

i agree the fit isn't great rubes. myself i'd keep the lovely lace dress for parties and wear the not-so-nice for the funeral. really no-one notices what you wear for a funeral (although i still kick myself for wearing red to a memorial service when everyone else was in sombre colours... ) i don't think you'd find you associate the cardi so much with the event, so i'd go with that. sorry about your friend

I think the thing is that he liked nice looking ladies and would have appreciated me being dressed up.

I was really sorry to hear about your friend, Rubes.

Fwiw, I've worn dresses I loved to funerals and never felt weird about wearing them again.

hopefully ms t's right and it wouldn't bring sad associations. he'd have liked you to see you wearing a beautiful dress out and about, right?

I bought a silk floral shift dress from warehouse in the sale this morning. I wasn't sure about it on the hanger but thought i'd try it on and it was great - fitted perfectly and pretty flattering. A properly uplifting purchase - may wear it for the christmas party I'm going to tomorrow.

here is dress - again looks much better in the flesh and on than in the picture. I am currently wearing it round the flat for trial purposes and it is making me happy (and it goes really well with purple tights)

DO ITTTTTT

I've got loads of leotards like that, they're dead easy to wear, I can often be seen down Sainsburys with a jumper and some ....uggs over one.

Well I've just seen the dress code and it's "wear what he would have liked to see you in" - so I think that's probably the black lace dress. I'd forgotten that it was the works Christmas do today and I was going to wear it to that, which I did, so hopefully it's now just a dress in my wardrobe rather than forever The Dress I Wore To The Funeral.

I bought some hold ups from M&S to go with a party dress and they kept falling down. I am going to complain to M&S.

 

[aqua]

you're tall aren't you? I find the M&S ones just don't stay up properly either - I had to order some for tall people and the difference is amazing

Slash leotard Zenie

i got a lovely vintage 50's fitted, knee-lenth, high-neck dress from paper, dress vintage. needs to be fitted. way more expensive than i thought it would be (failed to look at label before taking to till) but am thinking, hell, i'm worth it (or something). is patterned with a kinda burnt orange and green "retro" print. i hope it looks nice when altered

Yum!!!

Oh I hate that, this happening to me in Peckham High St one day put me off hold ups for ages! Suppose you need a M/L cos your legs are LONG but they aren't wide

I bought large 'cos I always do with tights because of the tall thing but they were falling off me. Where do you get yours from?

Ive jud bought myself a pot of that as I'm getting wrinkles, is it any good zenie?

 

[zenie]

I really like it, yeh. It does seem to improve your skin texture quite a bit, I need my bloody pores reduced.

Did you order online?

Bought myself some pyjamas with penguins and stars on them at Peacocks today, as my only other long pjs aren't that warm, plus the buttons on the top and really impractical and just pop open all the time.

 

[muvva]

Peacocks rocks!

 

[muvva]

Oh I feel the needfor a trip to Peacocks now, fuck food shopping when I can buy clothes!

£50 off

I really like those and was going to buy them earlier in the year, but someone said they were quite narrow and I don't think I would get my feet in them.

 

[stuff_it]

They are, I can wear a 4 in some shoes, but can only wear these in 5 as long as I don't wear my thickest socks (they only had one size in the sale)

 

[killer b]
