And I have no idea what to wear. I would like a nice dress, not expensive budget doesn't really allow for it but I want to feel nice.

I'm currently a size 16, still sporting too much baby weight she's 22 months now Sad around 5'2. Weight is mainly on tummy, bum and legs. I like my boobs. My arms aren't great but I don't hate them.

A decent length dress, can't do short. I'm 33, single and this is a childhood friends wedding, I just want to feel nice for the day. I have various heels I can wear should the dress allow.

And ideas and or tips gratefully received Thanks

I've just ordered one of these for an event. They're recommended on here quite often.

Glad to be of service Smile.
The one I ordered seems to good quality too - a nice thick cotton with a bit of stretch. And they have pockets which I think is an excellent bonus.

That's good to know! Looking forward to ordering mine. Did you find the sizing good?

What's the sizing like?

They give a really accurate size guide by each dress which is good as you have to pay for returns. I also found their customer services team v helpful.

Been trying to order one for the last two days, emailed them today and they are having technical difficulties which they hope are resolved soon. Hope so, have fallen in love with one dress!

I've got the Audrey dress by the same company. I love it!

Pantsalive · 16/04/2015 08:53

Oh no. I hope they sort it out.

The Audrey is lovely. I've bought an Ophelia but need to work on bingo wings before I wear it.

What are you going for Peek?

I've fallen in love with an ophelia. Oasis I think, with yellow and pink flowers on. I thought a shrug/jacket might cover my arms and I could tie that in to match which ever shoes I pick. Sadly matching handbags are out at the moment, my 22 month old dd doesn't travel light!

Am going to re try tomorrow, after the dentist just in case I need cheering up fingers crossed it's sorted and working.
