with my wedding outfit. Having a secret wedding end of March with just me, dp and the children. Have not got a clue what to wear. Don't feel comfortable in dresses and don't like the idea of a trouser suit, was wondering about trousers/top/jacket combo, oh please, please help!

no self-starvation is the only way to lose 2 stone in 2 months
Good luck tomorrow, remember to let us know how you get on

You are going to be a bride! Enjoy looking a bit 'bridey' you nana
You are only going to do this once, so it's nice to look a little different to mark a special event in your life.
And don't think being a 'child of the sixties' means you have to look frumpy. I bet you are younger than Madonna, and possibly than Kylie Minogue. YOu don't see them in elastic waist slacks, do you?

And don't panic about your size. Nigella Lawson looks pretty OK as a size 14 -16, doesn't she?

With 'somanykiddies' Aloha I look more like Nora Battey than Madona! Must look into a bit of beauty therapy before the day!

How many children do you have?
You can look lovely you know. A great hair cut and colour at a really good place, some beautiful clothes. Incredible what they can do.

Sounds so romantic. Do indulge yourself. If you try on everything at Monsoon (check East for long jackets too) I'm sure you'll find something gorgeous.

LMK, can you tell us the story of you and DP - it sounds v romantic!
