So it would seem I'm getting married in September Just a registry office with our dd's and two witnesses and then a rockin reception the following weekend :)

I'm thinking ivory lindy bop Ophelia with red petticoat and leopard print shoes and belt/sash ribbon for me and leopard print dresses for my girls. I can start shopping again yay!!!!

Congrats pinup!!

That dress looks lush!

Thank you :) It's all very homemade and budget as obviously it's not long to get everything sorted but for £40 I think the frock will look nice with the accessories :) I've even found dp a black and leopard print bowling shirt.

Congrats!

I'm on a spending ban since I spent far too much in March. But on the 2ww, and if I'm not pg next week I'm allowed to buy myself something next week. Have my eye on a few collectif tops - anchor and cherry print - and a sailor style steady clothing one, or maybe a nice red cardigan...but am hoping to not buy anything and be pg

Anyone bought from Whirling Turban? I am sooooo tempted ...

Love the shoes sunshine

Well, my spenidng ban looks set to conitnue for while, because I got a BFP last week and already finding mm it hard to fit into soem of the povely clothes I've bought this year. Still, there's always lipstick andneyeliner, right?

What can a vintage gal wear when she's pregnant?

Awesome!

Congratulations Calling on your bfp :)

I'm a very happy bunny at the moment, I've lost 8.5lbs in a fortnight on the slimming world diet and clothes that I've bought and never fitted are actually fitting me and the dresses I already have look so much better. I'm now starting to sort my outfits and accessories for the Hemsby Rock and Roll weekender which is only 11 sleeps away This link has some lovely photos on from last year, loads of inspiration for me :)
