This would look lovely on DD1

Do you want them in similar outfits?

Hulababy · 22/11/2007 21:01

Pretty orange floral Sarah Louise dress - age 2y in sale too.

Katz · 22/11/2007 21:01

thats georgeous, dd1 would love it,thanks

not sure about similar outfits, have done matching in the past but they are so different,

what size do you go for in monsoon? hoping to do 90% of the christmas shop from my sofa!

Oh no, looked more carefully. It is too small.

Hulababy · 22/11/2007 21:02

DD's current dress from Monsoon is age 6.

Katz · 22/11/2007 21:02

A bit dearer but it is orange!

Hulababy · 22/11/2007 21:03

It is a lovely dress! Not pink though. Mind you, have a look at Monsoon - sale is on. DD's party dress is reduced from £44 to £28!

Katz · 22/11/2007 21:05

Hulababy · 22/11/2007 21:09

Infact there are lot of really pretty dresses on that site

Katz · 22/11/2007 21:14

wish i hadn't looked at this thread because i just looked at the dresses on monsoon site and they are gorgeous!!!!!!!!!!!! now i am depressed as i cant afford them! and now anything i look at will be compared to the one i like and nothing will seem as nice.

Hulababy · 22/11/2007 21:23

That's lovely Katz

If you need a babysitter give me a shout...or we could go for a girl's shopping night???

bigfatbump · 23/11/2007 09:31

Katz · 23/11/2007 09:53

Hulababy · 23/11/2007 11:51

Well I think we are probably due some time out anyway aren't we? Will have to come up with a suitable evening

GrumpyOldHorsewoman · 23/11/2007 12:09

Good luck, ladies.

I am off to Disney On Ice at Hallam Arena tomorrow night, and we are going to TGI Fridays for something to eat first. Had toyed with the idea of 'popping across' to Meadowhall beforehand, but my constitution couldn't handle it.

Hulababy · 24/11/2007 21:08

GOH - did you enjoy the ice show? We went last night (Friday). DD loved it

GrumpyOldHorsewoman · 26/11/2007 10:22

Thanks, Hula. The DDs loved it. We went for something to eat in TGI Fridays first, along with the rest of the audience, I suspect. We had a really nice evening (even though DH was working and couldn't come with us, as always) Am steeling myself for Meadowhall tomorrow afternoon (DD1's 13th b-day on Weds, and still no pressie )
Have you been in the last couple of weeks? How bad was it?

Katz · 26/11/2007 18:26

i've not been for a while but hoping to go with hula this week.

would tomorrow (tues) be any good?
