...in Phase Eight - it's the green one - I'd like to go a bit mad, and get some say bright orange or red shoes, as I hate to look too "matching"...good/bad/indifferent idea?

oh sweetie, that's nice of you to say. I'm great thanks, first day back and feeling, well, fine
I was thinking of your lurvely green bag when I saw this dress but then thought I should go a bit rainbow
have to also get dd's their bridesmaid outfits, will try bhs as they're quite reasonable and have a bit of choice. may get ivory and customise them with coloured sashes (sil's dress is ivory and bil's suit is blue)

you ok?

I like it too but am Unadventurous so would probably go for tan or neutral shoes, or possibly green

(recent green shoe threads here and here)

wow, its gorgeous!

hoxtonchick · 05/06/2007 16:09

would you like to borrow my bag? more than welcome (though maybe too matchy-matchy).

we're all fine, off to ibiza tomorrow. panicking slightly....

cod which is your dress? will study it...

hoxty, i'm sure you'll have a lovely time

badge, I think that means you'd like me to buy greeeeeeen shoes?

i like these but mainly for colour and clumpiness, I realise they're not quite "it" (definitey don't want strappy, dainty things)
