Approx £30 :(

Everyone else is spending loads on new dresses, I went shopping today and couldn't find a thing.. Don't really want to buy something I wouldn't wear again... Need something long, pref floor length, I'm a size 12 and 5ft 6" if you think you can help?!

TIA :)

Wasn't that one of the very first ones posted? Confused

Yes by PattySimcox but in Navy

It's odd how a colour changes your perception (at least it does for me) but DP doesn't show alternate colours

Get to a posh area, go on a charity shop trawl, you can pick up Hobbs, jigsaw, monsoon evening dresses for £10 if you're lucky.

Can see I'm too late Grin

Have a good time....

So ahem my red one would be - what? - £26? I'd order that as well so you can choose between them depending which fits best < refuses to give in >.

Apologies to Patty, it does look so different in the purple, I do blame DPs for not showing different colour ways...

OP, I tried the charity shops, all the ones round here keep their prices really high...

I refrained from ordering both dresses and looking at any bling Grin I'm sure I can dig out some bling!
