I'm weirdly worried about it. No one else to ask. Is this ok?

DD's graduation - yes or no?

From those messages, your daughter sounds as lovely as you do OP.
Hope you both have a fantastic day

MrsBertBibby · 12/06/2019 20:45

Aww OP you're so pretty! And the dress is lovely.

I graduated from York in a crazy flowery jersey sun dress because I forgot to plan an outfit. Gave birth in the same frock 14 years later, and that baby is now 15. I think the dress is stashed in the attic with his belly button clip and wrist bands.

Have a wonderful day with your daughter and ignore the miserably fuckers on here.

Lobsterquadrille2 · 12/06/2019 20:46

Gosh. Thank you more than I can say. Yes, DD is lovely 😀.

You look lovely OP. I think because the weather is so relentlessly awful, people are thinking you'd be frozen!

You have made me think though, our son graduates in a month and it didn't occur to me to get dressed up!

And ignore the comments about your wig. You weren't asking for comments about that. I know you've had the same nonsense on previous threads.

Handbag101 · 12/06/2019 21:03

Awww you look FABULOUS OP. Go and have an amazing day.

koolaider · 12/06/2019 21:03

Second pic is fab-u-lous!! You look amazing OP.

Lobsterquadrille2 · 12/06/2019 21:10

The positives have outweighed the negatives. I know by now that when I ask about a dress, the response is invariably about my wig! Hopefully in another year, it'll be my hair.

Thank you to most of you 😀.

@Lobsterquadrille2 your smile is amazing. I hope your lovely daughter's big day makes you smile like that.

Horsemad · 12/06/2019 22:15

Hi OP, please don't not go to your DD's graduation, she's worked damn hard to get there and the only person she'll be looking for is YOU, you have to go.

Your outfit looks lovely, I commented on your other post this morning 🙂

Enjoy the day, both of you!

Lobsterquadrille2 · 12/06/2019 22:21

Thank you again. I'm definitely going. DD loves the dress. I will take a jacket!!

MrsBertBibby · 12/06/2019 22:45

Don't you dare wear it unless it's freezing!

Sagradafamiliar · 12/06/2019 22:46

Lobster I've never seen a photo of you looking less than gorgeous and recognise both you and your username from other threads. My guess is that the troll from earlier also did and sadly saw their chance to leap in with their vicious, spiteful comments.
Congrats to your DD and to answer your OP, the dress is lovely and thoroughly appropriate for the occasion!

hoochymamgu · 13/06/2019 06:58

You look stunning Smile go for it! Congratulations for your DD and have a fabulous day with your family Thanks

Fatkins · 13/06/2019 08:11

Lobster I've never seen a photo of you looking less than gorgeous and recognise both you and your username from other threads.

Yes, I remember you too Lobster! And agree, you always, ALWAYS look fab.

Hope the graduation is wonderful. York is beautiful!

Lobsterquadrille2 · 13/06/2019 08:28

@Fatkins @Sagradafamiliar

Ooh, I feel known!! Thank you for remembering me and your lovely comments.

Much better today.

I do recall posting about a dress last year that turned into a wig fest, so I should be used to it!

Lobsterquadrille2 · 13/06/2019 12:07

@Lobsterquadrille2 go with the dress. You look a million dollars and have a fabulous figure. You look beautiful and you look even more amazing in the second photo of your face.

EmmaC78 · 13/06/2019 12:11

Looks totally fine. I work at a university so go to a lot of graduations and your dress looks entirely appropriate. Hope you have a great day.
