Grrr...I am so angry with myself.
Next weekend my two DD's are having Holy Communion. I went today to Fonthill Rd in Finsbury Park and bought two dresses.They are just what I wanted. They were £80 but she gave us discount (wholesalers) so I ended up paying £70.I left shop so happy and I was so happy to be over with that.
Came home and just took them out of their bags to check on them and one of them has pen scribble on the bolero.I called them up and she told me I can come to exchange on Monday.But...I think they were the last ones and it is such a extra thing.I have my first scan on Monday (12+ weeks) and I am stressing so much about it.They don't refund the money and I can't waste £££.
Just wanted to went...THANK YOU

Aw what a shame.

If you can't find a replacement easily can you try a stain devil product on it.

Try to chill out and relax!

Being pregnant is so blooming stressful!

If the item is faulty they are legally required to replace or refund. They can't refuse.

Thank you so much eosmum but I will find my way it's just very annoying.
It's a proper boutique .They sell wedding dresses,flower girl dresses ,holy communion dresses and different price range.
I checked again and I just realized that pen on the receipt is the same as the one on the bolero....
I just can't believe it..And I live in NW London so at least 1h drive if DH doesn't take car to work if he does 2h by pt......

Could you sew some extra beads, sequins or little flowers onto the boleros?



Something like this.

ThatsAStupidUsername--that's great idea if I can't exchange.Where do I buy sequins???I really wouldn't even know where to look for them.
Please let me know.

Fair doos :)

Try john lewis, amazon, Fenwick or online...if you google sequins then there should be TONS of sites (brain fail is stopping me remembering any! !)

I've got an age 13 one if thats any good?
