I'm sitting in Debenhams waiting for the personal shopper..

[Spink]

.. to bring a selection of stuff for me to try. Feeling unfeasibly nervous. Eek!

oooh how exciting ..look forward to heaairng how you get on

I'm looking for wedding/christening outfits & haven't worn a dress in about 5 years! Strange but a relief
to be at someone else's mercy!!

She's given me a cuppa and is off filling a rail for me. Fighting the urge to do a runner

It was fab! She was lovely, I haven't had so much fun clothes shopping.... ever! And I have a dress. Result.

Oooh glad it went good. I get a personal shopper thing too but have never used the service before...just might now

Not referring to the person as a "thing" btw

Did you have to pay for it? I would love to have a personal shopper

I get the service free with my debenhams gold card...think that means I shop there too much.

Link to dress please!

Bushy It was free!! and there is no stipulation that you have to buy anything, and no pressure. In fact as well as the dress and cardi to go with it, I also tried on a jacket I really liked and she didn't encourage me to buy that too (though if she had I probably would have, woman of straw that I am)

Weirdly the dress isn't on the debenhams website but I have a photo I took of myself in it in the dressing room (glam it is not) which I took so I could send to dh for feedback! I have posted to my profile. You can't see the top of the dress clearly as I'm wearing a cardi with it, and I am wearing nude patent peep toe shoes too which are not visible.. but you get the idea.

I will be making an appt with her again when the sales are on, to sort out a 'capsule wardrobe'. Very glad I went.

it looks gorgeous. good choice!

Very nice!

You look great in that dress!

Oooh it's lovely.

My sil works as a personal shopper and she is lovely, maybe it was her

aw, thanks! It feels odd being in a dress so it is great to hear lovely compliments. Yay!

Looks nice and sounds like a good day.

Lovely dress.
