Finally got my grubby mits on my dream xmas party frock!

[BunnyLebowski]

After 3 years of sporadically finding and then losing on Ebay I have just won the <a class="break-all" href="http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?q=pearl+lowe+peggy&um=1&hl=en&sa=N&tbo=d&biw=1920&bih=1032&tbm=isch&tbnid=DZ2s0xqNqAcSxM:&imgrefurl=fashion.telegraph.co.uk/galleries/TMG8117459/1/Pearl-Lowe-for-Peacocks-Christmas-2010-collection.html&docid=S1sNml4khXicnM&imgurl=ris.fashion.telegraph.co.uk/RichImageService.svc/imagecontent/1/TMG8117459/p/1-DAISY-PEARL-LOWE_1756329a.jpg&w=359&h=555&ei=p8-zUMutO8mc0QXAioCYDQ&zoom=1&iact=rc&dur=213&sig=110579325638702042409&page=1&tbnh=146&tbnw=95&start=0&ndsp=84&ved=1t:429,r:2,s:0,i:91&tx=2&ty=37" rel="nofollow noindex" target="_blank">Pearl Lowe Peggy dress

Christmas parties here I come!

Now I have to go explain to DP why I paid £30 over the original retail price

[MikeLitoris]

Oh me likes.

[headfairy]

That's lovely... I've seen one on for £50 at the moment. Is that in the ball park of what you paid?

[BunnyLebowski]

I paid £70 headfairy

My justification is that I've wanted it for 3 years and will wear it forever as it's so classic and so so so me.

They're going for silly money. Clearly!

[headfairy]

Don't have to justify it to me, it's really lovely. And the one on for £50 is a starting bid with 4 days to go. I'm sure you're going to get tons of wear out of that. Was it new?

[BunnyLebowski]

New without tags. Had been tried on but was being sold due to weight gain. Someone's gain is my gain too

Now how do I style it? Black accessories or colour?

[CajaDeLaMemoria]

How deep is the neckline? I love that!

You have great taste :)

[BunnyLebowski]

It doesn't look too indecent Caja. And I'm not averse to a big wee bit of cleavage!

I won it by 14p. There's some Ebayer out there cursing me right now!

[StockingFilly]

Thats a lovely dress

[BunnyLebowski]

Ta Filly!

It'll be arriving tomorrow. Will report back!

[Pinkforever]

I got the green grecian pearl lowe dress for £15-an it doesnt fit I am determined to literally starve myself for the next 3 weeks as it is lovely on but just wont zip up the back

[Fillybuster]

Its lovely. I remember when the collection launched and I salivated over the pics, but was still bfing dd2 and carrying loads of excess weight (and not really going to parties much that year) so didn't get to the shops....

[BunnyLebowski]

Me too Filly! DD was born Oct 08 and this collection launched 09!

Still waiting for the postie. Very impatiently!

Pink - The green one is lovely! If you low carb from now you'll definitely be able to wear it for Xmas!

[ApplesinmyPocket]

I really, really like that, Bunny. Glad you won it.

[puds11]

Thats right up my street that is.

[Pinkforever]

Bunny-do you know that peacocks is back online and there are 4 pearl lowe dresses in the collection? I have ordered 2 of them!!

[BunnyLebowski]

Pink I've just looked. I'm actually glad I don't really love any of them! My bank account couldn't handle it!

The red one is lovely but not with my knockers.

Thank you Apples

[Pinkforever]

I didnt order the red one as I agree dont think it is flattering to norks! ordered the flower and ballerina print-I have high hope for the ballerina one as is very similar to the star print pearl lowe which is my favourite dress ever!

[BunnyLebowski]

The ballerina one is really nice. I have a similar one from New Look which is one of my all time favourites.

Think there's a pic on my profile. I wear it all the time

[pinkyredrose]

Wow that's a gorgeous dress! I want !

[DinosaursOnAnAdventCalender]

I'm watching that dress on eBay at the moment it's in £31 with 2 hours to go. It's in a size 14 though. I'm 31 weeks pregnant but thought I could get it for after the bang is born.... I don't know though.

[Pinkforever]

Did your dress arrive?-pics please! I have that new look dress! Would love the peggy dress but just cant justify spending that amount of cash...

[BunnyLebowski]

It didn't arrive Pink Should come tomorrow.

I'm praying it fits as I got the 12. Want to wear it out on the town tomorrow night!

[Pinkforever]

Any sign of the dress yet?-hurry up postie I am impatient to see a pic! I have hung the green one up on my wardrobe door for inspiration-night out is 3 weeks today! will really have to live off slimfast if I want to do it I think!

[BunnyLebowski]

It's here!!! It's seriously AMAZING!!!!

Off out for food but will post a pic of me wearing it when I get back!

And it fits beautifully and is a 12!

[Pinkforever]

AAHH am so jealous!! realistically how much weight do you think I can lose in 3 weeks?-there is about 2 inch gap of blubber up the back

Am glad yours fits!!
