Hello,

I’m starting a new thread because you lovely lot filled the old one with pics suggesting gorgeous dresses for- ahem- older or less-confident brides.

Thanks to you all I’m now in a position of having to choose between three I love!

Let’s hope the pics work this time!

I can see the cat!

onalongsabbatical · 18/04/2019 16:49

Ooo nice cat. Wear a cat? On your hat? Because you're not fat!
Stuff that.
What's happening?

There’s a sentence I never thought I’d type!

Excuse the state of me in those pics by the way. Hair and makeup not done, no shoes.

I do think I’m leaning back towards the pink. I like these two but the pink makes me feel bridey.

YAY - photos are up...

The red is nice but imo not as good as yesterdays - it feels a bit more casual...

I don't think the green dress hangs very well on you - the fall away under the ribbon makes it appear like you have a tummy which we've established on this thread you do NOT.

yesterdays pink still my favourite...

StarJumpsandaHalf · 18/04/2019 17:01

Those are nice dresses but in the pink you look like a bride without the whole trad wedding vibe. It looks special on you IMO.

YourSarcasmIsDripping · 18/04/2019 17:02

You're not swanking in them,so not quite right.Grin

youngestisapsycho · 18/04/2019 17:04

Don’t like those red and green ones... def the pink was the best one, you looked great in it.

myrtleWilson · 18/04/2019 17:04

pink I bet if you put the pink dress back on, closed your eyes, stood in front of the mirror, opened your eyes.... you'd do a little on the spot swank dance and grin a lot.

ProperVexed · 18/04/2019 17:04

I prefer the red one. But why have you got a set of steps at the foot of the bed? Is DP a tiny person?

IHateUncleJamie · 18/04/2019 17:06

I love the red one but not as your wedding dress. Pink still the frontrunner for me!

Keep the red one though for another occasion. Grin

Great idea! ☺️

Mokepon · 18/04/2019 17:09

I read your first thread but lost the trail as we've been under the dreaded d&v.
Could you post another pic of the pink?

onalongsabbatical · 18/04/2019 17:10

I LOVE the red one, I think it looks lovely and slightly edge the pink lace IMHO. Green one no, doesn't hang right.

onalongsabbatical · 18/04/2019 17:11

*edges That's my keyboard sticking.

Mokepon · 18/04/2019 17:11

And I like both of those but my Granny always says green at a wedding is unlucky and it was for her so I heed that!

Duckswaddle · 18/04/2019 17:11

Definitely the pink one from yesterday. It was beautiful and you looked really happy and fab in it.

These two dresses don’t really have any wow factor and there’s nothing really about them...you don’t glow in these like you did the other one.
