Adair, I luff DaWanda web site, but haven't ordered from it - I am sure it was another mn'er who linked to it. They have some beautiful, quirky stuff.

FiveOrangePips · 01/10/2010 21:18

tethers, I think you should order the IO one, at least to see if it would suit you/might be customisable?!

tethersend · 01/10/2010 21:40

Right. Have ordered the IO dress. 25% off makes a difference! Thanks Smile

Norkily- are you....?

And when is your birthday?

Yep. Shock

And Sunday.

Glad you got the dress! I failed in my attempt (keeps freezing Sad)

tethersend · 01/10/2010 23:36

Oh, congratulations!!! Grin That's brilliant news. Hooray!

From one Libran to another Smile

When is it your birthday then? I hope the dress will work for you, agree the sleeves are lovely.

We still pretty much in shock and am sad that I won't have much chance to wear my lovely teal heels from Kew before my centre of balance makes it impossible Grin

Mine's on Thursday. Have a glass of virtual champagne Smile

Such great news- how far gone are you?

Oh only about 8 weeks, so weeks off a scan even. V bizarre. Turns out I was already pregnant at the wedding (oops, though I didn't drink hideous amounts).

Happy birthday for Thursday Smile

tethersend · 02/10/2010 12:02

Keep me posted. And happy birthday for tomorrow Smile

let us know when the dress arrives - i really love that styling.

does it really look ok without a bump?

and congrats norkily

NorkilyChallenged · 03/10/2010 15:24

Thanks Edgar.

I think there might be a LOT of fabric but if you don't mind that extra wrapping it might work. The top I've got is like that.

NorkilyChallenged · 06/10/2010 17:02

Has your dress come yet Tethers? Curious to hear what it's like.

My IO parcel arrived today but not opening just now as trying not to wear the clothes til after 12 week scan and confirmation all is okay

tethersend · 06/10/2010 20:54

No sign as yet... although they say it has despatched.

Will report back Smile

I got my dress! It arrived this morning (my birthday) so well-timed and I feel less guilty for spending the money on it.

It fits really well, and the only sign it's maternity is that it's slightly longer at the front. You can tie the wrap tightly around and it works.

Very happy.

Thanks all Smile

Hurray hurray. And happy birthday. What a great way to celebrate - are you going out in your beautiful new dress?

tethersend · 07/10/2010 16:44

Went out for lunch but am now sat at home in it getting slowly pissed and watching cbeebies.

OP posts:
NorkilyChallenged · 07/10/2010 16:52

Sounds marvellous. Also watching cbeebies here (and trying not to be sick, but that's probably just me)

Happy birthday, hope you had a lovely lunch and I'm sure you look totally fab in your dress Grin

tethersend · 07/10/2010 17:05

Aw, thanks Smile

Have a virtual glass of champagne, that'll take the edge off the nausea Wink
